Page 1 of 2 Spice Production, 12 Oil and Gas Contractor Use EOR TechnologyJakarta - A total of 12 contractors Cooperation (CC) oil and gas ready to implement the application of advanced technologies (Enhance Oil Recovery / EOR) in order to pursue the oil production target of RI which until now still not been achieved. The 12 contractors are Pertamina EP, Kondur Petroleum, VICO, CNOOC, PHE WMO, Petrochina, Premier Oil, Petro Strait, Total EP Indonesie, Medco EP, JOB Pertamina-Medco Tomori, and Jambi Merang JOB Talisman. "Altogether there are 32 field a candidate application of EOR," said Head of Public Relations and Institutional Relations, Executive Agency for Upstream Oil and Gas , Elan Biantoro, in a press release received detikFinance, Jakarta (27/06/2011 ). He added that as many as 19 field has the potential to use chemical technology. Of the 19 fields, six fields ready to apply the technology of CO2 injection, three field with polymer technology, and other applied and thermal steam injection. With EOR, then oil and gas reserves are taken (recovery factor) can be increased. Through EOR, then the hydrocarbons that can be taken to 60% of proven reserves (of usually only about 30%. In fact, he continued, 70% -85% of proven reserves of oil can be transported using the latest technology. "However, the application of EOR is a long term project. The process takes at least five years," he admits. Elan continues, the contribution of secondary and tertiary recovery of national oil production has been beyond primary recovery. This was conveyed by the details of the phase distribution of primary production by 47%, 31% secondary, and tertiary / EOR 22%. "So, EOR plays an important role in increasing national production in the future. Now, the technology continues to evolve. The more recent, the higher the level of his recovery factor," said Elan. He said, some countries have successfully applied the EOR. For example, the Daqing field, China, which dioperatori Petrichona through which polymer injection, production can be maintained constant 1 million barrels per day (bpd) for approximately 30 years. Previously, Petrochina to water injection and optimization. Thus, BP Migas as a legal entity which deals in oil and gas upstream activities national require the contractors to the approval of the proposed plan of development (POD) plan also lists the primary stages of the production phase to the EOR. "With a historian of early preparation, the result would be more optimal," he hoped. As is known, many who considered that the oil and gas fields in Indonesia tend to be "old" so it needs to do a special technique in order to increase production optimally. This year, the government set a production target of 970 thousand bpd of oil. However, so far the new realization is reached the range of 906 thousand bpd. It is still far from the target.
