Storage of Carbon Dioxide in Oil and Gas Reservoirs and Enhanced Oil Recovery (EOR) Operations through its

Underground storage can be used as a technology with potential for long-term storage of carbon dioxide emissions from stationary sources such as fossil fuel power plants named. Reservoirs is one of the options that can be selected for storage of carbon dioxide. Carbon dioxide is injected into oil reservoirs can be effectively a structural trap, trap sediment, trap and convert the ore into solution in the storage reservoir. Storage of carbon dioxide not only reduces greenhouse gases dispersed in the atmosphere, but also a lot of economic benefits will follow. Nowadays, the common approach in the oil recovery processes by injecting carbon dioxide, reducing the amount of carbon dioxide injected is the amount of oil produced. But in terms of storage, the aim is to increase the amount of carbon dioxide saved. Oil industry is an important and significant contribution to the development and implementation of projects, carbon dioxide capture and storage (CCS) in the future with the aim to stabilize emissions of carbon dioxide atmosphere. This paper examines the storage of carbon dioxide in oil and gas reservoirs due to advantages such as increased hydrocarbon production and storage of basic facilities, are discussed.
