In what seems on the surface a little bit of a zero-sum solution, a British researcher has stated that oil recovery using carbon dioxide could be worth £150 billion (USD $240 billion) if acted upon immediately.
By using carbon dioxide to enhance the recovery from existing North Sea oil fields, the new calculation by Jon Gluyas, a Professor in CCS & Geo-Energy, Department of Earth Sciences, Durham University could yield an extra three billion barrels of oil over the next 20 years.
