This file discusses increasing the recovery factor to 100%. I find it strange that it considers these ideas to be new. It does provide a good introduction for anyone interested in the challenges associated with extracting oil from conventional wells.
Note that there is no discussion of the energy investment required to implement the proposed techniques.
