(2013-05-03)A model for the evaluation of CO2-EOR projects has been developed. This model includes both reservoir simulation to handle reservoir properties, fluid flow and injection and production schedules, and a numerical economic ...
-
(2018-08-09)The world‟s energy demand is increasing and all indications are that oil will be the leading energy supply for the foreseeable future. However, a significant amount of the world‟s „easy to produce oil‟, has been produced. ...
-
(2016-08-03)Low-salinity waterflooding (LSW) has been an emerging Enhanced Oil Recovery (EOR) technique. LSW-alternating-CO2 injection has recently proven to be a particularly strong EOR stimulation technique. Limited simulation studies ...
-
(2021-04-29)In recent years, the rapid decline in the production trend of liquid-rich shale reservoirs calls attention to enhance oil recovery (EOR) methods. One of the most promising EOR methods in unconventional reservoirs is a ...
-
(2011-02-22)Using a hydrogen donor and a catalyst for upgrading and increasing oil recovery during in situ combustion is a known and proven technique. Based on research conducted on this process, it is clear that widespread practice ...
-
(2014-04-07)Commercial recovery of oil and gas from ultra-tight shale formations depends significantly on the performance of hydraulic fracturing. Enhancing the performance of the stimulation treatment can improve the estimated ultimate ...
-
(2020-11-30)The world has relied on the use of oil as its main source of energy for decades, whether it is to fuel the vehicles or to heat homes or to power industries; with the continuous increase in the global demand of oil, it is ...
-
(2017-08-16)The objective of this study was to develop an understanding of the relative permeability of oil-water systems in fractures. Presently, two-phase flow behavior through propped and unpropped fractures is poorly understood, ...
-
(2020-07-13)Development of unconventional oil resources has attracted attention in recent years due to not only the rapid growth in energy demand but also emerging technologies such as multi-stage hydraulic fracturing with long ...
-
(2011-10-21)CO2 has been widely used as a displacement fluid in both immiscible and miscible displacement processes to obtain tertiary recovery from the field. There are several problems associated with the application of CO2 flooding, ...
-
(2021-02-24)Switchable ethoxylated amine surfactants are readily soluble in CO2 and high-saline brines, as well as chemically stable at high temperatures. Additionally, in their cationic form, these surfactants exhibit low adsorption ...
-
(2012-02-14)Water injection has been practiced to displace the hydrocarbons towards adjacent wells and to support the reservoir pressure at or above the bubble point. Recently, waterflooding in sandstone reservoirs, as secondary and ...
