Offshore CO2 EOR as part of a
National CCS Program:
Opportunities and Challenges
Opening remarks: Geological Storage of
CO2
• New business stream for oil industry
• Store captured liquid/supercritical CO2 in depleted oil and
gas fields and also in saline aquifers
• Synergies with existing operations through reuse of
infrastructure etc. and opportunity to increase hydrocarbon
recovery
• Contributes to the fight on climate change
• Has value through direct sales of CO2 for enhanced oil
recovery (EOR)
• Also through Cap and Trade arrangements or avoidance
of carbon taxes
• But comes with regulations and liabilities
• Uses all our skills
• Worldwide requirement for CO2 emissions reductions
and role of carbon capture and storage (CCS)
• Specific UK targets
• Expected amounts and locations of captured CO2
from national CCS program
• Types and locations of storage sites including estimate
of UK CO2 enhanced oil recovery (EOR) potential
• Planned power plants with CO2 capture (Canada,
USA and UK)
• Challenges of implementing CO2 EOR offshore
• Questions and discussion
Outline of Talk
Worldwide CO2 Equivalent Emissions and
Reduction Requirement
• Emissions reductions pathway consistent with limiting
temperature rise to 2°C (compared to pre-industrial levels)
• 85% reduction in developed countries (1990 baseline)
• 50% reduction overall

Inter-governmental Panel on Climate
Change (IPCC) Fifth Assessment Report
• Table 6.3 from IPCC Working Group III contribution to the
IPCC's Fifth Assessment Report (published April 2014)
• Compares with 445-490 ppm giving likely rise of 2.0-2.4°C
in Fourth Assessment Report (thus 450 ppm target)
• Now probably tolerate ~500 ppm and still limit rise to 2°C

UK Commitment to Reduction in CO2
Emissions
• Under Kyoto Protocol, UK committed to reducing
greenhouse gas emissions by 12.5% from their 1990
levels by 2012 – actually achieved 25.7% (provisional
figure)
• UK implemented legal requirement for 80% reduction in
1990 emissions by 2050, with interim target of ~34% by
2020
• Capture of CO2 emitted from fossil fuelled power plants
seen as one means of reducing emissions, with geological
CO2 storage in depleted oil and gas fields, and saline
aquifers
Contribution to UK CO2 Emissions From
Power Sector
• UK CO2 emissions 2013
464 million tonnes
• About 1/3 from fossil
fuelled power stations
• Many coal-fired power
stations due to close
• Public opposition to new
coal plants

UK Oil Production and the EOR Prize
How does CO2 EOR work?
• CO2 acts as a solvent flushing oil from rock
• Most efficient above the so called minimum miscibility
pressure (MMP)
• CO2 may be more or less dense than the oil, but always
less dense than water
• Efficiency of displacement is limited by heterogeneity and
gravity override
• Expected incremental recovery 5-15% of oil initially in
place
• Between 2 and 5 incremental barrels per net tonne of CO2
injected, but significant recycling of CO2 required
Screening for CO2 EOR Potential
• All 119 UK fields with oil initially in place >100 MMstb
screened (database made available by DECC)
• Screening parameters considered include:
• Ratio operating pressure/CO2 MMP (best <1.2)
• Ratio oil density/CO2 density (0.8-1.2)
• Ratio oil viscosity/CO2 viscosity (<10)
• CO2 efficiency (stb/tonne) (>2)
• Results are aggregated into overall score
• Best candidates, 2nd rank candidates and 3rd rank
candidates identified
• Potential incremental recovery calculated
Estimated Incremental Recovery Potential and
CO2 Stored by Category
• Incremental recovery factors typically 5-12% oil initially in place
• CO2 requirement for individual fields (3% HCPV/y) typically 1 to 4
million tonnes per year
• Leading Operators (best and second rank candidates)
• BP, Apache, Nexen, Talisman and Taqa

CO2 EOR Onshore - Advantages
• Mature CO2 supply network
• High well density, pattern flood, relatively cheap to
redrill/refurbish
• Relatively low secondary recovery (35-45%)
• Phased implementation
• Large surface area available for facilities
CO2 EOR Offshore - Challenges
• Limited CO2 supply at present but significant quantities
likely to become available on 5-10 year timescale (i.e.
early to mid 2020s)
• Fewer wells, peripheral floods, expensive new wells and
workovers
• High secondary recovery (up to 70%) therefore smaller
target
• Single implementation (i.e. no chance to introduce the
project in phases or to undertake pilot)
• Existing facilities mainly incompatible with high CO2
content in fluids
• Limited weight and space for new facilities
Well Density – Onshore vs. Offshore
• Onshore high well density
• ~2 million barrels per well
• Offshore fewer wells
• ~30 million barrels per well
Offshore CO2 EOR Implementation (Capital
Expenditure)
• Additional ~20 years from existing facilities
• CO2 reception facilities and controls
• Flow lines to injectors (CO2 and water) and
control valves
• Gas/liquid separation facilities capable of
handling high content CO2 in produced
fluids
• Separation of CO2 and hydrocarbon gas (or
just separate enough for fuel gas)
• Dehydration and compression of produced
gas for reinjection (increasing CO2 content
in produced gas)
• Start-up CO2 pumps
• Production well tubing needs replacing with
stainless steel (to deal with produced CO2)
• Baseline measurements for subsequent
monitoring

Assure Storage of Injected CO2 in EOR
Project (to meet regulations)
• Measure amounts injected and
produced to maintain inventory
• Keep average reservoir pressure below
initial pressure
• Assess CO2 seal capacity and seismic
risk over storage period
• Model long-term migrations and
reactions, if any
• Monitor for potential leakage via wells or
geological pathways during injection
period
• Abandon wells in a manner consistent
with long-term secure CO2 storage
Status of Offshore CO2 EOR
• So far only limited application principally re-injecting
natural CO2 or CO2-rich gas, e.g.
• Offshore peninsular Malaysia
• Lula field, Santos Basin, offshore Brazil (SPE 155665)
• Only offshore application using anthropogenic CO2 is in
Rang Dong field, offshore Vietnam (SPE161835 and IEA
EOR Workshops 2009 and 2012)
• Joint Vietnam/Japan venture
• Laboratory studies showed the field a suitable candidate
• Simulation studies indicated potential to increase recovery
by 6.4% of oil initially in place compared with waterflooding
with a utilization efficiency of 3.4 incremental barrels per
tonne of CO2 injected (5.55 Mscf/stb)
• Single well pilot ‘huff and puff’ test undertaken
Rang Dong Field (offshore Vietnam) CO2
EOR Huff and Puff Pilot
• Newly-perfed well section in Lower
Miocene sandstone reservoir
• CO2 sourced from fertilizer plant near
Hanoi
• Trucked by road to Vung Tau (163
tonnes)
• Transported by Ship to Rang Dong
oil field
• 3 stage treatment:
• Establish pre test flow rate then log
saturation profile (RST)
• Inject CO2 (111 tonnes), leave to ‘soak’
then log
• Flow well then log
Result – Simulation vs. Actual
• 111 tonnes CO2 injected (2.1 MMscf) over 7 hours followed by soak
• BHP ~3300 psia, MMP 2980 psia
• Swelling and viscosity reduction mechanisms observed
• Oil rate increased from 950 to 1500 stb/d
• Watercut reduced from 50-60% to near zero
• 214 incremental stb of oil
• Utilization 1.9 incremental stb per tonne of CO2 (or 9.8 Mscf/stb)
• Pre and post injection logging indicates saturation reduction
To conclude: So what does the future hold
for CO2 EOR in the North Sea?
• Supply of CO2 will (in all probability) develop from national
CCS program
• Initial CCS projects will plan for storage only, but proximity and
availability of CO2 likely to provide opportunities for EOR
initially possibly in the smaller/medium sized fields
• If successful, redevelopment of larger mature fields may occur
• New specialist CO2 operators may emerge
• Once EOR phase complete some extra opportunity to store
additional CO2
• Adjustment of tax regime may be needed to make offshore
EOR economic
• Regulation around CO2 storage (over and above O&G
regulations) may be a significant burden
Big Decision
• Bulk of CO2 captured in
south (2035-50 numbers
from ETI)
• Saline aquifer storage
nearby
• but EOR opportunity in
oil fields in north
• Trunk pipeline required
• Who should pay?
• Up to £1 billion? 95 mill te/y
15 mill te/y
