EORGAS

A multi-patented (US & CA), sustainable, mixture of gases for enhancing EOR economics. EORGAS has direct applications to Conventional, Heavy Oil, Shale Oil and ageing waterflood reservoirs. Please see Supportive Data and Benefits for additional specific information to each of these applications.

Benefits of EORGAS

EORGAS is a mixture of gases used for enhancing EOR or IOR Economics.
The EORGAS mixture lowers IFT, requires only 4-6 mcf/BO recovered, achieves a 2x faster rate of oil recovery, increases matrix permeability (if swelling clays are present), mobilizes asphaltanes, aids conformance, and is produced on site.
Existing oilfield tubulars are protected by the presence of CO and another additive to minimize corrosion. Carbon monoxide is a strong reducing agent that reacts with any corroded/oxidized tubular Fe+3 iron to reduce the oxide to a low-reactive FeO form. This FeO is also known as the mineral “wustite”.

Why does EORGAS work?

EORGAS: A mixture of CO₂ + CO

CO2 operates in a physical chemical method
CO operates in a geochemical mechanism.

The combination of both gasses are complimentary in achieving lower cost and faster EOR.

EORGAS is also tolerant to minor amounts of H₂, CH_n, H₂Ov, and other gasses. Thus gas production costs are significantly lowered. CO’s geochemical mechanisms lower IFT, aid conformance, mobilize asphaltenes, increase rate of oil recovery, minimize mcf/bo requirements, increase matrix permiability and allow operations at low pressures and immiscible conditions while protecting tubulars.

Applications of EORGAS

Conventional Oil
Heavy Oil Recovery
Shale Oil EOR
New or Ongoing CO₂ Floods
Enhanced Water Floods

Safety of EORGAS

Field operations are continuously monitored by both simple home-type CO monitors, alarms and personal monitors to provide safe, on-site operations for both the workers and general area.

Environmental

NO GASSEUS EMISSIONS

Use of the mixed gas (EORGAS) does not result in the emissions of any greenhouse gases, rather all gasses are sequestered. Since the EORGAS can be produced on-site, while also producing steam for production of electrical energy, a “green” energy supply is available. Excess heat is also available for aiding very heavy oil production.
