The U.S. Department of Energy’s (DOE) Office of Fossil Energy (FE) selected five projects to receive approximately USD39.9 M in federal funding for cost-shared research and development projects under funding opportunity announcement (FOA), Advanced Technologies for Enhanced Oil Recovery.
DOE selected these projects as part of its basin-specific research strategy focused on increasing ultimate recovery and operational efficiency.
Projects resulting from this FOA will reduce technical risks associated with EOR and expand the application of EOR methods onshore, both in conventional and unconventional reservoirs. The research will also improve the understanding of unconventional reservoirs and improve recovery factors for these plays.
