Carbon Dioxide Enhanced Oil Recovery: Untapped Domestic Energy Supply and Long Term Carbon Storage Solution

National Energy Technology Laboratory

Argues that injecting carbon dioxide into a depleted reservoir does double duty — it recovers oil left behind by water flooding and stores the CO2 underground afterward — and works out how much US oil and storage capacity this makes available.
