LOS ANGELES, Oct. 19 — Mitsubishi Heavy Industries Ltd. and Royal Dutch Shell PLC, building on an earlier agreement, will jointly develop plants aimed at boosting oil production by injecting wells with carbon dioxide emitted from electric power plants.
The plants will collect and compress CO2 and inject it into an oil reservoir about 1,000 m deep. The first contract is expected as early as 2008.
The technology reportedly can increase oil output by 4 bbl for each ton of CO2 injected. The two firms plan to build facilities capable of collecting 10,000 tons of CO2 and raising oil production by 40,000 b/d.
In December 2005, Shell and Mitsubishi signed a memorandum of understanding that established a strategic alliance to cooperate on business opportunities relating to CO2 capture and recovery in the Middle East.
The companies said areas of cooperation would include joint feasibility studies on CO2 capture from flue gases, as produced from industrial plants, and linked to enhanced oil recovery projects, using CO2 “in miscible flood techniques to improve the flow and recovery of oil from developed reservoirs.”

Royal Dutch Shell conspired directly with Hitler, financed the Nazi Party, was anti-Semitic and sold out its own Dutch Jewish employees to the Nazis. Shell had a close relationship with the Nazis during and after the reign of Sir Henri Deterding, an ardent Nazi, and the founder and decades long leader of the Royal Dutch Shell Group. His burial ceremony, which had all the trappings of a state funeral, was held at his private estate in Mecklenburg, Germany. The spectacle (photographs below) included a funeral procession led by a horse drawn funeral hearse with senior Nazis officials and senior Royal Dutch Shell directors in attendance, Nazi salutes at the graveside, swastika banners on display and wreaths and personal tributes from Adolf Hitler and Reichsmarschall, Hermann Goring. Deterding was an honored associate and supporter of Hitler and a personal friend of Goring.
Deterding was the guest of Hitler during a four day summit meeting at Berchtesgaden. Sir Henri and Hitler both had ambitions on Russian oil fields. Only an honored personal guest would be rewarded with a private four day meeting at Hitler’s mountain top retreat.
