In southern Vietnam, there has continued to increase number of industrial plants, which are becoming the large amount of CO2 emission sources. Some offshore CO2 gas fields have already been developed by separating CO2 from the produced gas and more offshore CO2 contained gas fields are waiting for the development. Through these activities, CO2 emission will be more and more increased and its immediate reduction has to be considered from environmental protection point of view. It is apparent to take this action in quicker manner. JOGMEC and VPI have been cooperated to tackle this issue through the joint studies since 2007. CO2 EOR application to the oil field(s) will increase oil production as well as contributing CO2 sequestration by transporting CO2 from industrial plants or CO2 contained gas field. In addition, unique Japan technology of Gas To Liquid (JAPAN-GTL) can handle CO2 directly to produce liquid from produced gas including CO2 without separating CO2. An integrated design of CO2 related development is overviewed in the paper. |
