Data confidence 70 medium
How this score is calculated

It is built from checkable properties of the record itself: whether the article has a DOI, how many independent sources confirmed its data, whether the required fields are filled in, and how recent the latest confirmation is. Disagreement between sources and a missing identifier lower it. A value of 80 or above means the record was published without further checking; 60 to 79 means it is published at reduced confidence, with a manual check advisable. A record verified by an editor by hand is never pushed below 90 by a recalculation. This scores our data about the article, not the article itself.

Abstract

The oil and gas industry is well-known for being a leading sector in the economy of the country. Although this industry can be highly profitable, the costs associated oil and gas production is much higher. These production costs encompass all stages of oil field development, starting with geological exploration. A significant part of these costs involves various measures aimed at enhancing oil recovery. The precise application of efficient geological and technical measures at various fields will significantly contribute to cost reduction. This article provides a review of various geological and engineering measures (GEMs) designed to enhance oil recovery. It examines the work of numerous and highlights the most commonly used geological and technological engineering (GTE) methods in production. Furthermore, the article demonstrate the effectiveness of the applied measures by presenting specific field examples. This article can be used in the future as a prerequisite for research on utilizing the compatibility of different GTEs in specific fields.
