Preferment of the Planning and Implementation of Improved Oil Recovery)IOR(Processes in Iranian Oil and Gas Reservoirs by SWOT Analysis

The use of Improved Oil Recovery (IOR) processes in reservoirs is inevitable because energy demand is increasing. The recovery factor of Iranian oil and gas reservoirs is low, therefore, the use of IOR processes is very useful. The main purpose of this study is preferment of the planning and implementation of IOR processes in Iranian oil and gas reservoirs by SWOT analysis. To reach this purpose, the factors required for SWOT analysis were obtained by using face to face interviews with Iranian experienced experts as the method of collecting data and also using the concepts of the SWOT analysis. As part of the results of this article, supporting human resources to attend international conferences and workshops and enhancing gas production alongside proper marketing for gas export were the most important outputs of the SWOT analysis.
