Magellan Eyes EOR Project West Of Williston

The Oil & Gas Journal is reporting:
Magellan Petroleum Corp., Denver, said it could eventually add 50 million bbl of oil reserves to its books by bringing an existing oil field at Poplar, Mont., to full-scale carbon dioxide enhanced oil recovery operation.
First step in this process is a CO2-EOR pilot program that Magellan plans to begin this summer with five new wells. The pilot could cost as much as $20 million, the company said.
The evaluation period will take 12-24 months, after which the company hopes to move to a full-field development.
Poplar, MT, is 75 miles due west of Williston.

The link for the Poplar oil field (thank you, Don).

I assume if they add 50 million bbls of their reserves, the CEO will start calling this a "popular" oil field.
