Chemicals are a pivotal part of many operations for the oil and gas industry. The purpose of
chemical application in the subsurface reservoir is to decrease the mobility ratio between the …

Abstract Nanoparticles improve traditional Enhanced Oil Recovery (EOR) methods but face
instability issues. Surface modification resolves these, making it vital to understand its impact …

Nanofluid offers more opportunities and challenges over the traditional surfactant and
polymer solutions during enhanced oil recovery (commonly referred to as tertiary oil …

Biosurfactant is one of the emerging compounds in the industrial sector that behaves
similarly with their synthetic counterparts, as they can reduce surface and interfacial tension …

The worldwide demand of energy sources is increasing day by day. The trend of growing
interest on renewable products is also increasing widely. Regardless of the advances of …

Rock wetting behaviour and CO 2/brine interfacial tension (IFT) have significant impacts on
enhanced hydrocarbon recovery (EOR) and carbon geo-sequestration (CGS) projects …

Due to the low permeability, small pore throat and poor pore connectivity of ultra-low
permeability reservoirs, the development technology of ultra-low permeability reservoirs is …

Carbon dioxide (CO 2) utilization for oilfield applications is affected by viscous fingering
which leads to premature breakthrough without showing any appreciable impact on oil …

To accurately simulate nanofluid flooding for enhanced oil recovery (EOR) in oil reservoirs, it
is essential to consider the porous media's heterogeneity. This heterogeneity causes …

The imbibition of water with surfactants, including spontaneous imbibition and forced
imbibition, is of great significance for enhanced oil recovery (EOR) in tight sandstone …
