RMOTC, Partner Successfully Test Enhanced Oil Recovery Monitoring Tool

The Rocky Mountain Oilfield
Testing Center (RMOTC) and hydroGEOPHYSICS, Inc. (HGI) have completed
successful tests of HGI’s new, cost-effective enhanced oil recovery (EOR)
tool for monitoring the movement of fluid injected underground to “flood”
oil fields and increase oil production.

The HRR(TM) technology monitors and identifies changes in spatial fluid
flow characteristics and migration direction in the reservoir. It is
controlled by an on-site, remotely-operated instrument trailer that houses
a communication system accessible via a Virtual Private Network hosted over
satellite. A full project report is available at http://www.rmotc.doe.gov.
