TLDR
In this paper , a novel cosolvent to improve CO 2 for heavy oil recovery, while assisting CO 2 storage in oil reservoirs, was proposed, which showed that propanol results in the largest decrease in the viscosity of oil-phase by more than 50% compared to pure CO 2 and propane.

A Storage-Driven CO2 EOR for a Net-Zero Emission Target

TL;DR: In this paper , a storage-driven CO2 enhanced oil recovery (EOR) method was proposed to realize net zero or even negative CO2 emissions by sequestrating the maximum possible amount of CO2 in oil reservoirs while accomplishing the maximum allowable oil recovery.

Mechanism of the vapor extraction process for heavy oil and bitumen

TL;DR: In this article, the vapor extraction process is used for the recovery of huge resources available in the form of highly viscous heavy oil and bitumen, and the experimental results showed that in porous media, the process performs as much as an order of magnitude better than expected from typical calculation using molecular diffusivity alone.
