© Infield Systems Ltd © Infield Systems Ltd With Supply Constraints IOR/EOR is Key to Raise Recovery Factors unconventional production, renewable energy Source: EIA
22 © Infield Systems Ltd IOR/EOR More Relevant Than Ever – Why? Approximately 70% of global oil production originates from mature fields (approximately 35% of the oil in place is recoverable through conventional production methods) No more easy oil plays (geologically complex reservoirs in deeper, more remote and/or harsh environments) Most EOR projects are onshore, however with recent advances in technology, offshore projects now offer considerable opportunities Higher oil prices improve the project economics of IOR/EOR applications, mostly offshore EOR not restricted to brownfield projects, increasing applications for greenfield projects (e.g. heavy oil) Conventional RecoveryEnhanced Recovery IOR (improved oil recovery) Primary Recovery e.g. natural flow, artificial lift Secondary Recovery e.g. waterflood, artificial pressure maintenance (WAG) EOR (enhanced oil recovery) Tertiary Recovery e.g. Thermal, polymer, solvent
23 © Infield Systems Ltd Major IOR/EOR Challenges Offshore Environmental challenges (e.g. pressure, weather) Geological constraints (e.g. lithology of the reservoir) Cost (e.g. higher cost base for infrastructures offshore compared to onshore) Increased logistics and maintenance (e.g. remoteness, access to injectants) Risk management (e.g. geologic carbon sequestration leakage risk) Mostly Water and Gas injections methods used offshore Statoil Tordis - IOR Subsea Module Source: Picture courtesy of Statoil

25 © Infield Systems Ltd Conclusions For now, IOR/EOR applications are mostly used onshore, but great potential offshore High oil prices support the sanctioning of more IOR/EOR applications offshore, although environmental limitations are still a major concern The development (through technology and innovation) of IOR/EOR applications is crucial to fill the growing gap between declining global oil production and emerging economies oil consumption
