EOR Extracts Maximum Crude Oil Thereby Leading Carbon Capture and Storage Market
The key factors driving the carbon capture and storage market include incentives, carbon taxes, cap-and-trade based emission trading, and direct funding of projects. Product-based incentives, emission standards, and feed-in tariffs can play a major role in the adoption of CCS at large CO2 emission sites. Carbon dioxide is typically generated in natural gas processing units or sold for subsequent use in enhanced oil recovery (EOR). In the latter, CO2 is forced into reservoirs to mix with oil, resulting in a mix that can easily be shifted to the production site. This is anticipated to continue for the forecast period as CO2 storage adds risk, complexity, reservoir discovery costs, and acceptability concerns that can be avoided through EOR. Typically, only a third of oil can be recovered after secondary recovery, making EOR a viable option for operators. EOR enables crude oil extraction from an oilfield th

Carbon dioxide (CO2) is the primary cause of climate change and carbon emissions from industry comprise more than half of global greenhouse gases. This makes it imperative to invest in
carbon capture and storage (CCS) technologies. CCS can capture the majority of CO2 emissions, preventing it from entering the atmosphere. Carbon capture consists of separating CO2 from other gases created during industrial processes. Carbon capture is very expensive and energy intensive and has a cascading effect on power plant operational costs. However, transportation poses little difficulty as CO2 can be moved in either a liquid or supercritical state (pressure > 73 bars and temperature > 31 C).
