Overview: Using a nitrogen huff and puff (cyclic) process, Bretagne G. P. increased production from a mature Appalachian basin reservoir, from 200 bopd to 500 bopd, with no significant increase in water production. Cumulative recovery through May 2000 is 115,000 bbl of oil from cumulative injection of 342 MMcf of nitrogen. The composite projected nitrogen utilization factor for the project is 1.2 Mcf per incremental bbl from the initial 163 wells treated.
