COURSE OVERVIEW
PetroTeach offers a three-day course on CO₂ EOR and Storage designed to address key technical and strategic issues while enhancing understanding of these increasingly important topics. CO₂ capture, utilization for Enhanced Oil Recovery (EOR), and storage (CCUS) offer significant environmental and economic benefits. One of the major sustainability challenges facing the E&P industry is identifying practical solutions to reduce CO₂ emissions. At the same time, CO₂-EOR presents an attractive economic opportunity that can contribute to achieving global emission reduction targets.
Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS) is widely regarded as a practical approach to lowering global CO₂ emissions, facilitating a gradual transition from fossil fuels to cleaner energy sources, and supporting climate change mitigation efforts.
This course provides a fundamental understanding of CO₂-EOR and CCUS, along with a state-of-the-art review of current technologies, practices, opportunities, and challenges. Participants will gain the technical knowledge and practical skills needed to address challenges related to CO₂ injection and to capitalize on emerging opportunities in CO₂-based EOR and storage projects.
