<br />
Shell Oil’s Denver Unit in the Wasson Field in West Texas CO<sub>2</sub> EOR work provided an additional 120 million<br />
incremental barrels or more of oil from 1981 thru 2008. A barrel of oil typically comes in at 300 lb and contains 82-85% carbon. If all that carbon is used for fuel, total CO<sub>2</sub> emissions equivalent are:<br />
<br />
: 120,000,000 * 300 * 0.82 * 46/ (14 * 2204) tonnes CO<sub>2</sub> = 44.0 million tonnes of CO<sub>2</sub>.<br />
<br />
The United States leads the world in both the number of CO<sub>2</sub> EOR projects and in the volume of CO<sub>2</sub> EOR oil production, in large part because of favorable geology. The Permian Basin covering West Texas and southeastern<br />
New Mexico has the lion’s share of the world’s CO<sub>2</sub> EOR activity for two reasons: reservoirs there are particularly amenable to CO<sub>2</sub> flooding, and large natural sources of high purity CO<sub>2</sub> are relatively close. However, a growing number of CO<sub>2</sub> EOR projects are being launched in other regions, based on the availability of low cost CO<sub>2</sub>. See [[Bravo Dome & Pipeline]]<br />

Numbers on CO<sub>2</sub> used were not discernable.</div>Rjcord
