Abstract
Rising importance of using Enhanced Oil Recovery (EOR) in oil production also increased the demand for<br>monitoring related effects like surface movements. Over the last years land surface movement monitoring<br>using satellite Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) interferometry became operational. In the last year a new<br>generation of SAR satellites with high resolution modes and short revisit times was launched and<br>interferometric data series are available. This development reveals the potential for monitoring small-scale<br>and highly dynamic surface movements related to EOR more accurate than by using conventional systems.
