Currently, there is a widespread interest in the different methods of chemical enhanced oil
recovery (EOR) as a result of the continuous decline in the conventional oil reserves and the …

Biosurfactants comprise a wide array of amphiphilic molecules synthesized by plants,
animals, and microbes. The synthesis route dictates their molecular characteristics, leading …

With a constant upsurge in energy demand, production from depleted and harsh reservoirs
through enhanced oil recovery techniques (EOR) has significantly increased. Among many …

With the increasing demand for efficient extraction of residual oil, enhanced oil recovery
(EOR) offers prospects for producing more reservoirs' original oil in place. As one of the most …

Due to the continuous depletion of crude oils in the reserves, and continuous rise in energy
demand, there is currently a widespread interest in various methods of chemical enhanced …

Despite the progress made on renewable energy, oil and gas remains the world's primary
energy source. Meanwhile, large amounts of oil deposits remain unrecovered after …

The wettability of carbonate rocks is often oil-wet or mixed wet. A large fraction of oil is still
remained in carbonate reservoirs, it is therefore of particular significance to implement …

In the petroleum industry, oil and water emulsions are frequent, not only in oilfield operations
but also during the transportation and refining processes. Once depicting emulsion …

Nearly half of the world's oil reserves are found in carbonate reservoirs, which have
heterogeneous formation characteristics and are naturally fractured. Because of the …

Abstract In Chemical Enhanced Oil Recovery (CEOR), various chemicals such as polymer,
surfactant, alkaline, and nanoparticles are injected solely or in combination to mobilize the …
