Enhanced Oil Recovery (EOR)
• Injection of fluids or gasses into reservoir to “push” the additional oil and/or natural gas that was difficult or did not initially product to surrounding wells.
10
Enhanced Oil Recovery (EOR)1
• EOG is the 1st company to say it has significantly increased oil production from an unconventional play using gas injection.
• Field tests since program started in 2013:
• The production increases on 15 wells indicated from 30-70% reserve gains.
• A 32-well test in 2016 added 300,000 bbl of oil at $6/bbl finding cost.
• Work is ongoing on 100 wells in six areas in 2017.

Enhanced Oil Recovery (EOR)1
Inputs and Outputs
• Additional capital costs average about $1 million per well
• The process uses associated gas from its wells
• Production response is in 2-3 months
• $1 invested adds $2 to net present value
It Works if:
• The formation is able to contain high-pressure gas injection near the well.
• Wellbores contact the most productive rock.
• The completion maximizes the fractured area within a restricted zone around the wellbore.
