1 Permian CCS Center Carbon Capture & Storage Technology Carbon Capture & CO 2 EOR Learning Through the Permian CCS Center October 7, 2011 E. Lance Cole, PTTC

2 Current U.S. O&G Trends Game changing horizontal drilling, multistage fracs Unconventional gas first, then oil Taking horizontal/frac back to conventional reservoirs that were marginal w vertical well technology -- exploration is nice, but back to mature fields where one knows the oil is there just have to get it out - >> Enhanced oil recovery (EOR) CO 2 is one of most proven EOR processes

3 U.S. & Permian Basin CO 2 EOR Growth Perm Basin & U.S. CO2 EOR History 300 Annual CO2 EOR Oil in kbopd PB CO2 EOR OIL (KBOPD) U.S. CO2 EOR OIL (KBOPD) Supply limited decline Year

4 CO 2 EOR Potential (Demand) Pentup Growth from Conventional CO 2 EOR PLUS Residual Oil Zone (ROZ) Potential ROZ = naturally waterflooded zone below pay >> reservoir may be better than main pay zone >> not restricted to just under existing fields ROZ proven in Permian Basin field projects Also being found in other basins

5 Volumes & Sources of CO2 for EOR Estimated Daily North American CO2 Source Deliveries for CO2 EOR - Dec '10 Ammonia (Fert) 1.3% Nat'l Gas Plants 19.4% Coal Synfuels 4.8% Ethanol 0.0% Ethylene 0.1% Refinery 0.0% TOTAL CO2 VOLUMES NA = 3.1 bcfpd PB = 1.8 bcfpd (Both New Records) Underground 74.4% From Hargrove et al (2010) 2010 CO 2 Conference, Midland, TX

Asst. Sec. of FE)

8 DOE Regional Training Centers Tons of Federal R&D $ in CCS R&D Training/Tech Transfer to Move from R&D Seven Regional Training Centers Permian CCS Center CO 2 Flooding Country

9 Permian Basin CCS Approach By and For Industry Industry organizations instructing industry professionals Broad Audience Its all about the money: for companies to seize opportunities, for individuals to be ready to perform in CCUS/CO 2 EOR

10 Three World Class Organizations Petroleum Technology Transfer Council Tech Transfer, Workshops, Newsletter, Tech Alerts American Association of Petroleum Geologists 37,000 Members, Publications and Conferences Distance Learning Applied Petroleum Technology Academy CO 2 Course, CO 2 Conference

11 Uniqueness of Permian CCS Center From Industry for Industry Not Affiliated with a Partnership Project CO 2 EOR (CCUS) Focus Pulls from Capabilities of 3 Organizations >> PTTC (regional & national tech transfer) >> APTA (CO 2 conference; network w operators) >> AAPG (distance learning; applications- and research-oriented forums)
