The Enhanced Oil Recovery Institute (EORI) is pleased to announce that applications for the WRPTDAP are once again being received and evaluated.
The objective is to test the effectiveness of scrapers, brushes or other mechanical tools on paraffin and scale removal from within wellbores. Pre- and post-workover production and fluid levels will be used to measure tool effectiveness. Project applicants may request up to $750/well from EORI for the purchase of data sets adhering to the requirements in Section 4. There is no specified individual project limit and the program may be expanded or extended beyond the current amount, based on availability of funds.
EORI's Director Dr. Steven M. Carpenter will be a speaker for the Congressional Fact Finding Tour on the topic of CO2-Enhanced Oil Recovery. The Congressional Fact Finding Tour, hosted by the Northeast Wyoming Municipal Leader’s Group (NEWY) will be taking place August 13 - 17, 2018 in Wyoming.
NEWY, comprised of leaders from several municipalities in NE Wyoming hold annual tours as fact-finding tours of sites in Wyoming's energy industry for the purpose of showing congressional delegates and their aides how the energy industry in this state works cooperatively with tourism and other industries in a symbiotic relationship beneficial to the region and the state.

The Enhanced Oil Recovery Institute (EORI) announce the initial awards under the program designed to acquire real world Wyoming reservoir operating data in partnership with various technology vendors and Wyoming operators.
Data collected from approved projects will be used by the Institute’s research, engineering and geology staff to analyze Wyoming reservoirs and technologies. The goal being to suggest improved, economic methods for recovering larger volumes of stranded oil and gas which is at the heart of the Institute’s mission and legislative mandate.
