The nature of carbonate reservoirs promotes the adsorption of oil onto the rock surface
hence making oil recovery a challenge even with the interventions of varied chemical EOR …

Carbonate precipitation induced by microorganisms has become a hot topic in the field of
carbonate sedimentology, although the effects of magnesium on biomineral formation have …

Various methods have been proposed for the evaluation of reservoir rock wettability. Among
them, Amott–Harvey and USBM are the most commonly used approaches in industry. Some …

Adhesion is an intrinsic property of rocks and liquids. Investigating the factors contributing to
its formation and the mechanisms governing its action is crucial for elucidating the adhesion …

Understanding and manipulating wettability alterations has tremendous implications in
theoretical research and industrial applications. This study proposes a novel idea of …

Marlstone reservoirs are closely related to the degree of fracture development and their
hydrocarbon accumulation are also controlled by the distribution of fractures. Hence, the …

Carbonate precipitation induced by microorganism has become a hot spot in the field of
carbonate sedimentology, while the effect of different magnesium on biominerals has rarely …

Carbonate reservoirs, particularly limestones and dolomites, represent more than a half of
world's oil resources. Typically, carbonate rocks have complex structure and consist of a …

Relative permeability is an important feature to characterize two-phase flow in coalbed
methane (CBM) reservoirs, as it can be widely used in laboratory, simulation studies and …

Surfactant flooding is an effective enhanced oil recovery method in which the interfacial
tension (IFT) can be reduced to ultralow values (less than 0.01 mN/m). However, the …
