CO2 stimulation

CO2 stimulation is a technique used in oil and gas recovery where carbon dioxide gas is injected into underground rock formations. This process helps to increase pressure and improve the flow of trapped oil or gas, making extraction more efficient. CO2 can also react with the rock, reducing its viscosity and helping release more hydrocarbons. Additionally, CO2 injection can serve as a form of carbon storage to reduce greenhouse gases in the atmosphere. Overall, CO2 stimulation enhances resource recovery while offering environmental benefits by sequestering carbon underground.
