This study effort was undertaken to 1) provide a first-of-a-kind evaluation of a microbubble CO2 enhanced oil recovery (EOR) technique for application in tight unconventional plays, 2) compare the performance of microbubble CO2 injection with continuous-phase CO2 injection for Red River EOR applications in North Dakota, and 3) investigate the effectiveness and feasibility of microbubble EOR by using a rich gas mixture in low-permeability formations to assess microbubble rich gas EOR performance relative to microbubble CO2 EOR performance.
