Enhanced-Oil-Recovery Potential of Heavy-Oil Fields in Africa

This paper presents an enhanced oil recovery (EOR)<br>evaluation for two heavy-oil fields in Africa. The objective of<br>the evaluation is to identify the technically and economically<br>viable EOR techniques for the fields. A total of thirteen<br>established and emerging EOR techniques were evaluated in<br>this study. The study included the first degree approximation<br>of the oil recovery for the viable EOR techniques and the<br>stand-alone project economics estimation.
