A Cretaceous pool near Edmonton

This post is brought to you by one of our information partners, Proven Reserves Exploitation Ltd.

The operator of this flood has just stopped decades of gas injection into this pool. The operator claims the recovery factor of is a whopping 45% for this cretaceous pool near Edmonton.

This shows that many pools can benefit from long term gas injection even without being over miscible pressure. Likely this reinjection strategy will prove just as effective today as it has been in the past.
