EOR Insights on the Black Bank Field Reservoir Characterization

The Enhanced Oil Recovery Institute (EORI) invites you to join us for our next Enhanced Oil Recovery Insights: An Integrated Approach to Reservoir Characterization for IOR/EOR Potential at Black Bank Field (Muddy) event on June 3, 2026, from 8:00 to 10:00 am at True River Cross Commons in Casper, WY.

This EOR Insights session will feature Dr. Maziar Arshadi of Piri Technologies, Joe Corning of MT/WY Oil, and Steve Whitaker, EORI Senior Petroleum Geologist. The presentation will focus on an integrated approach to reservoir characterization at Black Bank Field in northern Wyoming, where economic limits are being reached without effective IOR/EOR strategies. Through detailed subsurface mapping of the Muddy reservoir using sequence stratigraphy, combined with core analysis and brine compatibility studies, the team is evaluating viable paths forward. Reservoir modeling and simulation are also being used to better understand the expected performance of various enhanced oil recovery methods.
