WitrynaAbstract. Two-thirds of the oil ever found is still in the ground even after primary and secondary production. Microbial enhanced oil recovery (MEOR) is one of the tertiary methods purported to increase oil recovery. Since 1946 more than 400 patents on MEOR have been issued, but none has gained acceptance by the oil industry. Witryna9 kwi 2024 · Optimization studies are an important task in reservoir engineering practices such as production optimization and EOR (Enhanced Oil Recovery) assessments. However, they are extensive studies with many simulations that require huge computational effort and resources. In terms of EOR, CO2 injection is one of the most …
Advances of microemulsion and its applications for improved oil recovery
Witryna12 wrz 2024 · Low-salinity waterflooding (LSWF) is a potential new method for enhanced oil recovery (EOR) in sandstone and carbonate rock formations. LSWF approach has gained an attention in the oil and gas industry due to its potential advantages over the conventional waterflooding and other chemical EOR … Witryna14 wrz 2005 · A pressure-pulsing technique has been used in fractured fields to improve oil recovery. In some situations, imbibition of water can be promoted by chemical stimulation to alter the reservoir wettability toward water-wetness such that oil is expelled at an economic rate from the rock matrix into fractures. aston banjarbaru
