Monitoring a CO2 flood in two zones of a Permian Basin reservoir using chemical tracer technology

Tracerco has a proven track record in monitoring reservoir CO₂ and hydrocarbon gas injections using chemical tracers. Extensive research and development programs have identified unique tracer materials for tagging injection CO₂ or hydrocarbon gas that are compatible with reservoir formations, not naturally present, easily identified (even at ultra-low concentrations), demonstrate long-term stability at reservoir conditions, and are safe to handle and use. In the case of a CO2 flood, these chemical tracers possess properties that ensure similar behaviour to the injected CO₂ when it comes to miscibility and reservoir transport, preventing misleading data that otherwise might skew tracer study results.
