Do check your source on that. Cause I cannot find it. The number I could find is muuuch lower than the extracted oil worth of co2.
- pfdietz 2y agoI overstated it, and thank you for calling me on that, but one can find references that say it can breakeven. For example: https://netl.doe.gov/research/coal/energy-systems/gasification/gasifipedia/eor https://netl.doe.gov/research/coal/energy-systems/gasificati... "each ton [of CO2] can yield 2-3 barrels of oil" Burning a barrel of oil produces 468 kg of CO2, so 2 barrels would be slightly carbon negative.
