Discerning in-situ performance of an EOR agent in the midst of geological uncertainty I: Layer cake reservoir model

An enhanced-oil-recovery (EOR) pilot test has multiple goals, among them to demonstrate oil recovery, verify the properties of the EOR agent in-situ, and provide the information needed for scale-up to an economic process. Given the complexity of EOR processes and the inherent uncertainty in the reservoir description, it is a challenge to...
