TLDR
In this paper, a method of producing an oil reservoir having a gas cap and an oil column was proposed, where a first injection fluid, such as water, is introduced into the reservoir at the gas-oil contact and gas and oil are simultaneously produced from the gas cap or column, respectively.Abstract:
A method of producing an oil reservoir having a gas cap and an oil column. A first injection fluid, such as water, is introduced into the reservoir at the gas-oil contact and gas and oil are simultaneously produced from the gas cap and oil column, respectively. A second injection fluid, such as water, may be introduced at a point in or below the oil column.read more

Pro-ecological mining system
TL;DR: In this paper, a high pressure fluid barrier forming an enclosure boundary with respect to overburden and floor strata separated by one or more production strata containing desirable fluidizable deposits and/or potential reaction materials is proposed.
Patent
Acid gas disposal method
TL;DR: In this paper, the waste gas is injected within a 3000 ft (914 m) radial distance from the production of the gas, and the injection and production can be carried out using one well or a plurality of wells.

TL;DR: In this paper, a method of performing production operations of an oilfield having at least one process facility and at least 1 wellsite operatively connected to the facility, each of which having a wellbore penetrating a subterranean formation for extracting fluid from an underground reservoir therein, is described.
Patent
Methods and systems for determining reservoir properties of subterranean formations
TL;DR: In this paper, a fracture-injection/falloff test model was proposed for determining reservoir properties such as reservoir transmissibilities and average reservoir pressures of a formation layer or multiple layers.
Patent
Applications of waste gas injection into natural gas reservoirs
TL;DR: In this paper, carbon dioxide separates out of the waste gas through preferential absorption in connate or aquifer water, with the result that carbon dioxide is thereby both retarded from flowing to the natural gas production well and effectively sequestered in the reservoir water.

Thermal recovery method for viscous oil
Kathy J. Hartman,Winston R. Shu +1 more
TL;DR: A thermal oil recovery process in which steam is injected into a heavy oil-bearing formation through a horizontally-drilled injection well and oil is produced through a horizontal production well parallel to the injection well is described in this paper.
Patent
Controlled reservoir production
TL;DR: In this paper, a method of enhancing oil and/or gas recovery by properly drilling injection and production wells into a reservoir, incorporating flow control valves and sensors in both sets of wells, and connecting these valve and sensors to a surface computer is proposed.
Patent
Method of developing oil fields
TL;DR: In this paper, improved flow control valves adapted for regulating the inflow of oil to well tubing were described. But they were not described in detail, and their performance was not evaluated.

Patent
Method for the enhanced recovery of oil and natural gas
TL;DR: In this article, a method for the enhanced recovery of both natural gas and liquid petroleum from hydrocarbon-containing underground formations, particularly dipping subterranean formations, by the consecutive steps of introducing a gaseous displacement fluid to recover natural gas, and thereafter introducing an oil-miscible displacement fluid for recovering undrained oil and/or other liquid petroleum.
