Pilot project to inject CO2 for enhanced oil recovery & CO2 storage / [Office of Energy Research and Development].: M159-17/2013E-PDF

"This project will focus on targeted research and the development of a new approach in heavy oil extraction in thin heavy oil reservoirs by using injected CO2 that could be permanently stored in the reservoirs. CO2 will be captured from Husky’s ethanol plant adjacent to its heavy oil upgrader, then transported and injected into heavy oil reservoirs located nearby to enhance oil recovery. This project could eventually lead to the capture of up to 300 000 tonnes of CO2 per year from the Husky ethanol plant and upgrader by purifying, dehydrating, compressing and transporting the CO2 to heavy oil reservoirs in the Lloydminster area"--Project description.
