HOUSTON, Apr. 12 -- A unit of Kinder Morgan Energy Partners LP plans to evaluate carbon-dioxide enhanced oil recovery potential of oil and gas producing properties it has acquired from Journey Acquisition-I LP and Journey 2000 LP, primarily in the Permian basin.

The properties produce 850 b/d of net oil equivalent and include fields with EOR potential near Kinder Morgan CO₂ operations.

Kinder Morgan CO₂ Co. plans to divest assets in the acquisition that are not CO₂ EOR candidates.
