AN ENHANCED OIL RECOVERY SYSTEM AND A METHOD FOR OPERATING AN UNDERGROUND OIL RESERVOIR

摘要

The present invention relates to an enhanced oil recovery system (1). The system (1) comprises an underground oil reservoir (2) comprising oil having an oil temperature (3) and an injection well (4) in fluid communication with the underground oil reservoir (2). The system (1) further comprises an enzyme storage (5) comprising temperature control means (6), wherein the temperature control means (6) are adapted for controlling the temperature of enzymes (7) in the enzyme storage (5) in relation to an operative temperature range (8) of the enzymes and /or the oil temperature (3) and the system (1) comprises injection means (9) for creating an injection stream comprising enzymes from the enzyme storage (5) to the underground oil reservoir (2) through the injection well (4). The invention further relates to a method for operating an underground oil reservoir (2).
