The Challenge
Carbon Dioxide is a proven solvent that is used to provide incremental oil production in Cold Heavy Oil Wells with Sand (CHOPS). Upstream clients use this type of Enhanced Oil Recovery (EOR) for incremental production from Brownfield areas and often need to increase CO2 supply for the EOR production program as it matures.
The Solution
Engineering:
- Providing engineering support for upgrades to the following assets
- Central Facilities & Compressor Stations
- Pipelines & Gathering Systems
- Well Pads & CO2 Sourcing
- Develop templates and standardized designs for repeatable areas of the project
- Process Flow
- Materials
- Instrumentation
- Equipment
- Process Modules
Operations:
- Design system upgrades to support integrated production and gathering
- Communication of Well Pads to the Central Processing Facility
- Supported compressor optimization efforts of existing assets
- Monitor reservoir leakage and CO2 Sequestration through observer wells
The Capability
- Capacity of 340 MTPD CO2 injection across 8 wells for a TIC of $21MM
- Expansion capacity to add 710 MTPD CO2 injection across 12 wells for a TIC of $14MM
- CO2 product improves well performance
