Recycled gas

Term · Oil and gas · MLC-T-OAG-003068

Natural gas that has been produced from a well, processed to remove impurities, and then reinjected into the reservoir. This process is often used for enhanced oil recovery (EOR) to maintain reservoir pressure or to sweep oil towards production wells. It can also be a method for gas storage or to reduce flaring.
