Abstract

A method for recovering hydrocarbons includes receiving a carbon dioxide recycle stream. The carbon dioxide recycle stream is separated into a purified carbon dioxide recycle stream and a natural gas liquids stream. The purified carbon dioxide recycle stream includes carbon dioxide and a first portion of Chydrocarbons from the carbon dioxide recycle stream. The natural gas liquids stream includes natural gas liquids and a second portion of the Chydrocarbons from the carbon dioxide recycle stream. The second portion of the Chydrocarbons contains a molar percentage of Chydrocarbons that is greater than a molar percentage of Chydrocarbons of the first portion of the Chydrocarbons.
