Primary recovery oil and gas

The American Petroleum Institute reports an average primary oil recovery of 20.9% for 307 solution gas drive reservoirs. In contrast, primary oil recovery from waterdrive, black oil reservoirs typically ranges from 15 to 50% or higher of the OOIP. Waterdrive, black oil reservoirs have yielded some of the highest recoveries ever recorded. Crude oil development and production in U.S. oil reservoirs can include up to three distinct phases: primary, secondary, and tertiary (or enhanced) recovery. During primary recovery, the natural pressure of the reservoir or gravity drive oil into the wellbore, combined with artificial lift techniques (such as pumps) which bring the oil to the surface.

Since this technique only targets the oil, which is either susceptible to its release or accessible to the pump jack, this is very limited in its extraction The most widely used method of secondary oil recovery is gas injection. Once gas, such as nitrogen or carbon dioxide, is introduced into the reservoir, it expands. This expansion forces oil through the formation and into the well. Gas injection accounts for 60 percent of secondary oil recovery in the U.S.

Gas injection accounts for 60 percent of secondary oil recovery in the U.S. Use of water injection can boost the recovery by another 15-20% of the original oil in reservoir, raising the recovery level to 40-45%. Water injection is sometimes considered primary production method and falls under the category of artificial lift, meaning lifting the oil out of the well by artificial means rather than its own pressure.

Crude oil development and production in U.S. oil reservoirs can include up to three distinct phases: primary, secondary, and tertiary (or enhanced) recovery. During primary recovery, the natural pressure of the reservoir or gravity drive oil into the wellbore, combined with artificial lift techniques (such as pumps) which bring the oil to the surface. Oil production is separated into three phases: primary, secondary and tertiary, which is also known as Enhanced Oil Recovery (EOR).

Primary Recovery: The first stage of oil and gas production, in which natural reservoir drives are used to recover hydrocarbons. Due to the difference in pressure within the reservoir and at the Recovery of oil and gas Primary recovery: natural drive and artificial lift. Petroleum reservoirs usually start with a formation pressure high enough to force crude oil into the well and sometimes to the surface through the tubing. However, since production is invariably accompanied by a decline in reservoir pressure, “primary recovery” through natural drive soon comes to an end. Primary production of oil or gas reservoirs is obtained at the expense of the natural reservoir energy. There are multiple sources of natural energy, including rock and fluid expansion, liberation of dissolved gas, water influx from adjacent aquifers, and gravity. The primary drive mechanisms lead to oil recovery to a varying degree.
