Oil recovery by carbon dioxide injection. Annual report, July 1978-June 1979

This is the 47th report on the Rock Creek carbon dioxide project in Roane County, West Virginia. The reservoir response to waterflood has been evaluated, several problems resolved, and carbon dioxide injection initiated. Carbon dioxide production through the Big Lime thief zone in Shaffer No. 1 is a problem, but it should not affect the overall results of the project. Currently, the major difficulty is keeping an adequate carbon dioxide supply. When this supply is maintained, the project should proceed successfully. There is no evidence to indicate that carbon dioxide injection will fail to provide a profitable method of oil recovery.
