Storing carbon dioxide (CO2 ) in oil reservoirs as part of CO2 -based enhanced oil recovery (CO2 -EOR) can be a cost-effective solution to reduce emissions into the atmosphere. In this paper, we analyze the economics of this option in order to estimate the amount of CO2 that could be profitably stored in different regions of the world. We consider situations in which the CO2 -EOR operator either purchases the CO2 supplied or is paid for its storage. Building upon extensive data sets concerning the characteristics and location of oil reservoirs and emission sources, the paper focuses on opportunities outside North America. Using net present value (NPV) as an indicator for profitability, we conduct a break-even analysis to relate CO2 supply prices (positive or negative) to economically viable storage potential.

CO2 capture and reinjection process (CCRP) can reduce the used CO2 amount and improve the CO2 storage efficiency in CO2 EOR projects. To select the best CCRP is an important aspect. Based on the involved equipment units of the CCRP, a novel techno-economic model of CCRP for produced gas in CO2 EOR and storage project was established. Five kinds of CO2 capture processes are covered, including the chemical absorption using amine solution (MDEA), pressure swing adsorption (PSA), low-temperature fractionation (LTF), membrane separation (MS), and direct reinjection mixed with purchased CO2 (DRM). The evaluation indicators of CCRP such as the cost, energy consumption, and CO2 capture efficiency and purity can be calculated. Taking the pilot project of CO2 EOR and storage in XinJiang oilfield China as an example, a sensitivity evaluation of CCRP was conducted based on the assumed gas production scale and the predicted yearly gas production. Finally, the DRM process was selected as the main CCRP associated with the PSA process as an assistant option. The established model of CCRP can be a useful tool to optimize the CO2 recycling process and assess the CO2 emission reduction performance of the CCUS project.
