The asphaltene deposition throughout the reservoir's life (primary, secondary production,
and enhanced oil recovery) is natural. Different methods are used to deal with the problems …

Understanding the interactions between oil and other particles in shoreline can help
determine the environmental risk and cleanup strategy after oil spill. Nevertheless, far less …

This paper describes the results of studies carried out to determine the influence of
asphaltene genesis on the low-sulfur residual marine fuel sedimentation stability, based on …

In this paper, the performance of three imidazolium-based ionic liquids (ILs) including 1-
hexyl-3-methylimidazolium chloride ([HMIM][Cl] or IL6), 1-octyl-3-methylimidazolium chloride …

Regardless of many attempts to identify asphaltene and resin interfacial phenomena, the
complexity of their molecular structure increases the uncertainty about their interfacial …

In-situ emulsification is a promising process for reducing residual oil saturation in depleted
reservoirs by transporting the oleic phase through oil-in-water (O/W) emulsions and blocking …

The solid‐state conversion of amorphous carbon into graphene is extremely difficult, but it
can be achieved in the friction experiments that induce macroscale superlubricity. However …

This research aims to the microwave-assisted catalytic cracking of the asphaltene by using
nanoparticles of SiO 2, Al 2 O 3, clay, and ZnO acting as a nanocatalyst. The nanoparticle …

The work demonstrates the great potential of using a vanadyl porphyrin probe to study resin–
paraffin aggregation processes in oils. The dynamics and polarity of the local environment of …

In this study, the effect of four asphaltene samples on the wettability alteration of carbonate
reservoir rock is investigated. The wettability of each core, before and after the deposition of …
