Abstract
A carbon dioxide injection manager may pump carbon dioxide into a wellbore with a carbon dioxide pump. A carbon dioxide injection manager may measure a carbon dioxide temperature of the carbon dioxide at the wellbore. A carbon dioxide injection manager may, based on the carbon dioxide temperature, increase a temperature of the carbon dioxide between the carbon dioxide pump and the wellbore.
Claims20
A method for carbon dioxide injection, the method comprising:
- pumping carbon dioxide into a wellbore with a carbon dioxide pump;
- measuring a carbon dioxide temperature of the carbon dioxide at the wellbore;
- and
- based on the carbon dioxide temperature, increasing a temperature of the carbon dioxide between the carbon dioxide pump and the wellbore.
A carbon dioxide injection system, comprising:
- a carbon dioxide pump configured to pump carbon dioxide into a wellbore;
- a temperature sensor at the wellbore configured to measure a temperature of the carbon dioxide between the carbon dioxide pump and the wellbore;
- and
- a heater between the carbon dioxide pump and the wellbore, wherein the heater is configured to maintain the carbon dioxide above a minimum temperature threshold.
A carbon dioxide injection system, comprising:
- a carbon dioxide pump;
- a temperature sensor;
- a heater;
- and
- a processor and memory, the memory including instructions that, when executed, cause the processor to:
- pump carbon dioxide into a wellbore with the carbon dioxide pump;
- measure, with the temperature sensor, a carbon dioxide temperature of the carbon dioxide at the wellbore;
- and
- based on the carbon dioxide temperature, increase, with the heater, a temperature of the carbon dioxide between the carbon dioxide pump and the wellbore.
