LONDON, January 16, 2015 /PRNewswire/ --

Oil Sands and Heavy Oil CAPEX, OPEX and Production Forecasts 

Report Details  

Enhanced oil recovery (EOR) technologies are used to increase the amount of oil extracted from an oil field after the primary and secondary production stages. The technologies play on the physics of how oil is trapped in the rocks and are primarily aimed at either decreasing the interfacial forces holding the oil in pores within the rock formation, reducing the viscosity difference between the oil and water phases or modifying the reservoir and oil properties to release the oil more easily.

Thermal methods of EOR entail the application of heat to the oil well. This acts to lower the viscosity of the oil and thus increase the mobility ratio. These methods are typically employed in relatively shallow oil wells with higher viscosity such as tar sands and heavy oil. Thermal methods of EOR have been highly successful in the US, Canada, Venezuela and Indonesia, and have also been used in China and Brazil. Within the US, thermal methods account for around 40% of EOR production.

Visiongain has calculated that 2015 global thermal EOR spending will be $23.972bn. A significant amount of spending is anticipated in the immediate future as a wave of thermal oil sands projects are carried out. However, given the relatively high cost nature of thermal EOR operations, the current low oil price environment could provide a significant restraint on the market if it persists. The report highlights the impact of the new oil price environment on the market, as well as detailing how growth rates and the technologies employed will vary from country to country.
