Abstract
Summary: Field performance trends are presented for cyclic CO2 injection in light-oil sandstone reservoirs. Results indicate that the mass of CO2 injected is the best predictor of stimulated oil production rate and ultimate incremental recovery. The correlations enhance understanding of the single-well process, improve reservoir selection criteria, and suggest operational guidelines.Keywords
