“…The water-oil and liquid-gas relative permeability curves are from the previous study22, which were obtained from history matching from a production well in the Middle Bakken formation. It is noted that the oil and gas properties, rock properties, and fracture properties are within the reasonable range of typical oil properties reported in the literature19232425. In real field production, the bottomhole pressure does not decrease rapidly, but gradually from a larger value to a smaller value within a certain period.…”

“…The EDFM approach can be applied to effectively capture the complex fracture geometries and simulate their effects on oil and gas transport phenomenon in fractured porous media. Although the simulation production results were not compared with the actual field production data, which are difficult to obtain now, the simulations and prediction results are reasonable, for that the reservoir, fracture, and fluid properties used in the case studies are based on the experimental data in the Bakken tight oil reservoir22232425. In the future, great efforts will be made to further investigate the comparisons with the actual field production data.…”

“…Most gases used for injection include carbon dioxide (CO 2 ), 88 nitrogen (N 2 ), natural gas or the mixture of them. Among these 89 gases, CO 2 has received much more attention for enhanced oil 90 recovery in the Bakken formation [7][8][9]. CO 2 has a considerably 91 lower minimum miscibility pressure (MMP) than that of the other 92 gases such as N 2 and CH 4 [10,11].…”

“…Also, the oil-wet nature of some tight oil formations such as Bakken minimizes the effectiveness of water flooding. Both recent experimental and simulation studies have shown that carbon dioxide (CO 2 ) injection could be a feasible EOR method to improve the oil recovery and carbon storage and sequestration in tight oil reservoirs 4 5 6 7 8 9 . CO 2 has a considerably lower minimum miscibility pressure (MMP) than other gases such as N 2 and CH 4 10 11 .…”
