  ABSTRACT: With the increased global demand for crude oil, the increased reservoir lifetime, and the need for enhanced oil recovery methods, CO2 injection has become an efficient choice. This paper aimed to determine optimal CO2 injection choices using genetic algorithm, involving both optimized gas storage and enhanced oil recovery. There was no overlap between the objectives. Each was directly optimized and several optimal scenarios were developed at the same time. An advantage of this optimization method is that it is able to modify production scenario according to variations in optimization parameter values.
