CCS world projects: DOEAlabama
Project Overview
Funded through the Department of Energy’s Office of Fossil Energy, the primary goal of the Citronelle Project is to demonstrate that remaining oil can be economically produced using CO2-EOR technology. A project team led by the University of Alabama at Birmingham is conducting the injection. Study of the results of the 7,500-ton CO2 injection will provide estimates of oil yields from EOR and CO2 storage capacity in depleted oil reservoirs.
