Laboratory investigation of the influence of fractures on CO2 flooding
CO2 injection is a promising method for low-permeability reservoirs. CO2 is much easier to inject underground compared with water. The solubility of CO2 in oil decreases the oil density and viscosity, leading to an enhancement of the oil recovery. CO2 flooding could achieve the dual purpose of devel...
