An Eight-County Appraisal of the San Andres Residual Oil Zone (ROZ) 'Fairway' of the Permian Basin
- Advanced Resources International (ARI), Inc., Knoxville, TN (United States)
This document assesses the size and distribution of the oil resource in an eight-county portion of the San Andres residual oil zone (ROZ) fairway in the Permian Basin. Using well log analysis, the study divided the ROZ into partitions, developed a database of geologic properties for each partition and estimated the oil in place in each partition. The study then used the FE/NETL CO2 Prophet Model to estimate the oil that could be produced and CO2 stored from applying CO2 EOR to each partition. With the FE/NETL Onshore CO2 EOR Cost Model, the commercially viable partitions were identified as those that could produce oil and store CO2 economically at an oil price of $75/STB. The remaining geologically viable partitions could use CO2 EOR to store CO2 with production of oil to offset some of the costs. The database used for this study, and a report describing the database is available on NETL's website under the Collection Name Eight-County San Andres ROZ Appraisal.
