Jeff Brown, the Director of Energy Economics at the University of Wyoming's Enhanced Oil Recovery Institute was featured in a news piece focusing on a new analysis of carbon capture and storage (CCS) to mitigate climate change.
Brown’s analysis models the economics of connecting carbon capture sites across the U.S. with underground storage sites, thus helping to reduce the cost of preventing climate change.

The Great Plains Institute (GPI) and the University of Wyoming’s Jeffrey Brown explore the planning of CO2 transportation networks on a regional scale and ascertains the economic and environmental benefits that can be achieved through economies of scale to meet the US midcentury decarbonization goals.
This paper represents the results of modeling efforts to identifying regional scale CO2 transport infrastructure that would serve existing facilities and allow participation by new capture projects and facilities in the near future.
The analysis identifies near-term capture and storage opportunities, then designs and plans the regional transport infrastructure required to maximize CO2 reductions while minimizing cost and land use impacts throughout the Midwest, Rockies, Plains, Gulf Coast, and Texas.

The Enhanced Oil Recovery Institute (EORI), University of Wyoming, in Casper, Wyoming has published a study highlighting the best practices for drilling the Codell and Niobrara formations of the northern Denver-Julesburg (DJ) Basin in southeastern Wyoming.
This work details how best practices were obtained through optimized design and yielded better overall economics when modeled.
The Enhanced Oil Recovery Institute’s Jessica L. Barhaug, Senior Engineer, and Stephen T. Whitaker, Technical Director and Senior Petroleum Geologist, are the authors of the paper, entitled “Northern Denver-Julesburg Basin Production Trends – A Multivariate Approach" published online April of 2020 on EORI’s website under the Projects tab. Barhaug and Whitaker initiated the study to determine the ideal drilling and completion program for a targeted reservoir and evaluate the economic results. The authors compared the current drilling and completion practices to analyze the main drivers behind cumulative oil production at different time intervals while simultaneously considering the economics that are influencing the decision makers.
