(2009-06-02)Experimental and analytical studies have been carried out to better understand the effects of additives on viscosity, density and surface tension of intermediate and heavy crude oils. The studies have been conducted for ...
-
(2019-11-11)High dose rate electron beam (10 MeV, 15 kW, LINAC) irradiation was investigated as a potential technology for heavy oil upgrading. The flow system allows irradiation of crude oils at constant temperature while bubbling ...
-
(Texas A&M University, 2005-02-17)An experimental study was conducted to verify experimentally whether sand consolidation by high-temperature alkaline treatment was possible in the heavy oil Bachaquero-01 reservoir. The experiments were conducted using ...
-
(2020-01-13)Surfactant injection as additives to steam injection is a concept that has great potential to enhance oil recovery efficiency of heavy oil and bitumen. Steam injection enhances oil recovery by introducing heat to the ...
