Wider adoption of CO2-enhanced oil recovery could unlock an additional 5 to 8 billion barrels of oil from the Bakken Shale in the long term and generate up to $9 billion in new oil tax revenue for North Dakota over the next decade, according to a new report released by state Tax Commissioner Brian Kroshus. However, federal tax policies currently favor permanent CO2 storage over EOR recovery, creating a financial hurdle that state leaders argue must be addressed to attract industry investment.
