The Oklahoma Geological Survey (OGS) is developing a Technical Session and Core Workshop on enhanced oil recovery (EOR) with an emphasis on mostly tight sandstones, in particular, the Hoxbar Group of rocks in the southern Oklahoma and STACK/SCOOP/Merge areas in the Anadarko Basin of Oklahoma. The Pennsylvanian (Missourian) Hoxbar Group is economically important to the Oklahoma petroleum industry. In the Anadarko Basin the Hoxbar Group (e.g., Marchand sandstone) has been a prolific producer of oil and gas. Technical and engineering presentations will include sedimentology, reservoir quality, sequence stratigraphy, geochemistry, geomechanical rock properties and integrated depositional and diagenetic evaluation of the tight sandstones applied to EOR. Reservoir heterogeneity and mineralogy (as related to petrophysics) are important components used to evaluate EOR. The workshop is focused on the key learnings from both operators and researchers on tight sandstones and associated shales directly relating to EOR practices. The results of this work can be applied to other tight sandstones as an analog worldwide. The OGS is soliciting both sponsorships and presentations for this workshop.
AIPG (The American Institute of Professional Geologists) has approved the EOR Workshop for CEUs and PDHs:
If you need a certificate of completion, these will be available at the event. You will indicate your need when you register.
