Hypothesis on
EGR potential NL onshore gas fields
GIIP of fields (r.f.>0.5) 580 bcm
EGR potential 30 60 bcm (@ 5-10% of GIIP)

EGR worldwide
Many papers on EGR, but very
few projects
Examples of EGR projects
K12-B (offshore, Netherlands)
CO2 as drive gas
CO2 separated from produced
gas
Test site for EGR
De Wijk (onshore, Netherlands)
N2 as drive gas
N2 produced in dedicated
separation plant
Commercial project

Modelling sequence
Results
Gas field
If no or very little co-production of drive gas is allowed:
Additional gas production not significant
If drive gas is allowed in produced gas
Additional volumes order of 1% GIIP wit cut-off
[CO2] = 10%
No preference of either CO2 or N2 (low pressure cases)
Condensate field
Additional recovery of condensate of the order of 1%
No significant results for gas production
However:
Sensitivity analysis not sufficient to explain contrasting
expectations for the De Wijk field (10% additional
recovery expected)
Feasibility study to be extended with cost analysis

EGR projects?
Absence EGR projects
No business case to be made reasons could include:
High recovery factors volume remaining often too
small
EGR not always an option in case of low recovery
factor
Cost of converting facilities too high
Drive gas not available
