This book addresses the feasibility of CO
2
-EOR and sequestration in a mature Indian oil field, pursuing for the first time a cross-disciplinary approach that combines the results from reservoir modeling and flow simulation, rock physics modeling, geomechanics, and time-lapse (4D) seismic monitoring study. The key findings presented indicate that the field under study holds great potential for enhanced oil recovery (EOR) and subsequent CO
2
storage.
Experts around the globe argue that storing CO
2
by means of enhanced oil recovery (EOR) could support climate change mitigation by reducing the amount of CO
2
emissions in the atmosphere by ca. 20%. CO
2
-EOR and sequestration is a cutting-edge and emerging field of research in India, and there is an urgent need to assess Indian hydrocarbon reservoirs for the feasibility of CO
2
-EOR and storage.
Combining the fundamentals of the technique with concrete examples, the book is essential reading for all researchers, students and oil & gas professionals who want to fully understand CO
2
-EOR and its geologic sequestration process in mature oil fields.
