Aging oil fields and shrinking reserves are making new demands for enhanced oil recovery. New understanding of reservoir dynamics is enhancing the efficiency of the three main Enhanced Oil Recovery (EOR) methods: thermal, miscible and chemical recovery methods, describing which situations favor the techniques and which rule them out. 9 figs., 14 refs.
