An Overview of Oil Production Stages: Enhanced Oil Recovery Techniques and Nitrogen Injection

During the life oil wells, production process usually passes three stages. Primary recovery uses the natural source of energy. Pumps and gas lifting are involved in the primary recovery. The main purpose of secondary recovery process is to maintain the reservoir pressure by either a natural gas floo...
