CARBON DIOXIDE PROJECTS

IEP principals have played a key role in the implementation and operation of some of the largest miscible COâ‚‚ projects in the Permian Basin. Our previous experience in the development of large miscible COâ‚‚ gas injection projects can be applied to clean hydrogen and gas storage projects.  IEP engineers will use numerical simulation and phase behavior studies to maximize COâ‚‚ injectivity, determine well spacing and more accurately determine the size of major COâ‚‚ recycling facilities. There are a number of Miocene reservoirs in the Gulf Coast that can be used for storage or can recover a large percentage of the remaining OIP.  IEP’s principal developed and implemented the first offshore COâ‚‚ injection project at Quarantine Bay, Louisiana. COâ‚‚ was liquified, and shipped to an offshore platform where it was reinjected. This type of production technology was innovative at the time. Application of some of the same design considerations for COâ‚‚ recycling facilities are being used in modern LNG facilities. The principals of IEP worked on the initial design and later-stage development of the largest COâ‚‚ injection project at SACROC.  In the Denver Wasson Unit, Niraj helped Shell Western E&P develop a transition zone pilot study. In the transition zone study, COâ‚‚ was injected below the oil/water contact, and saturation changes were monitored through advanced reservoir surveillance tools.  IEP has been directly involved with the development and implementation of the following COâ‚‚ projects:
