Low permeability oil and gas resources are rich and have great potential all over the world,
which has gradually become the main goal of oil and gas development. However, after …

High water production is a common problem in mature oil reservoirs. Gel-based treatments
have been widely used as blocking agents to control water production in heterogeneous …

Polymer gel has been established as water‐blocking agents in oil recovery application. In
this practice, a mixture known as gelant is injected into target area and set into a semisolid …

Polymer gels are widely used in oil–gas drilling and production engineering for the
purposes of conformance control, water shutoff, fracturing, lost circulation control, etc. Here …

An in situ terpolymer gel system formed by resorcinol–hexamethylenetetramine (HMTA) was
developed and systematically evaluated for water management in extremely high …

Crude oil is a major energy source that is exploited globally to achieve economic growth. To
meet the growing demands for oil, in an environment of stringent environmental regulations …

Having a high water cut reduces the economic viability of oil production. Water production
increases, as less-viscous water tends to flow through high-permeability zones, leaving …

The injection of preformed particle gels (PPGs) is one of the novel solutions to improve
conformance control in mature waterflooded reservoirs. In this method, the interaction …

In the processes of oil and gas drilling, gas easily invades wellbores and adversely
influences the safety in high-pressure gas reservoir drilling activities. In this study, a polymer …

The use of nanogels, or crosslinked polymeric nanoparticles, has been proposed as a
means of improving oil recovery in low permeability reservoirs. Nanogels can transport deep …
