ABSTRACK
Suatu reservoir minyak akan menurun kemampuannya dalam berproduksi akibat terbatasnya tekanan alamiah reservoir dan kehilangan tekanan selama proses produksi berlangsung. Pada saat produksi berlangsung, tekanan reservoir akan terus menurun sehingga laju produksi yang dihasilkan pada proses produksi tahap pertama (primary recovery) akan semakin kecil dan cenderung menjadi tidak menguntungkan lagi.
Proses perolehan minyak tahap pertama merupakan proses perolehan dengan menggunakan tenaga pendorong alami, seperti tenaga pendorong gas terlarut (solution gas drive), tenaga pendorong air (water drive), dan tenaga pendorong tudung gas (gas cap drive). Mengingat masih cukup besarnya minyak yang tersisa setelah produksi tahap pertama, maka untuk mengatasi hal tersebut diupayakan suatu usaha untuk meningkatkan perolehan minyak. Metode peningkatan perolehan minyak tahap lanjut ini dikenal dengan metode peningkatan perolehan tahap kedua (secondary recovery) dan metode peningkatan perolehan tahap ketiga (tertiary recovery).
Teknik perolehan minyak tahap kedua dan tahap ketiga biasa dikenal dengan teknik peningkatan perolehan minyak (enhanced oil recovery – EOR). Secara umum EOR didefinisikan sebagai teknik peningkatan perolehan minyak dengan melakukan injeksi material, yang secara normal material tersebut tidak berada di reservoir.
