Gas Injection
Gas injection is a process used in oil recovery where gas—such as natural gas, carbon dioxide, or nitrogen—is injected into underground oil reservoirs. The goal is to push and displace the remaining oil toward production wells, improving extraction efficiency. This technique helps recover more oil from reservoirs that are difficult to empty using traditional methods. Gas injection can also alter pressure and fluid movement underground, making it easier to mobilize trapped oil. It's an important method for enhancing resource recovery, extending the life of oil fields, and increasing overall productivity.
