Lab and Reservoir Study of Produced Hydrocarbon Molecular Weight Selectivity during CO2 Enhanced Oil Recovery

Two laboratory experiments were performed to investigate the molecular weight selectivity of crude oil hydrocarbons mobilized into CO 2 at the reservoir temperature (42 °C) and pressures ranging from below the minimum miscibility pressure (MMP) of 9.69 MPa (1406 psi) to pressures well above the MMP...
