Although significant efforts have been made in research areas related to Enhanced oil recovery (EOR) and the role of rock wettability alteration (WA) at reservoir conditions using …
Low salinity waterflooding (LSW) has attracted attention of numerous researchers as a promising technique for enhanced oil recovery, yet its application is still limited because of …
Controlling nanofluid stability in saline environment has been a long-standing challenge as salt ions screen-out the surface charge of the nanoparticles (NPs), rendering them unstable …
The low salinity water flooding (LSWF) technique has established itself as cost-effective and environment-friendly in nature but its mechanisms are still unclear. Recovery due to LSWF …
Surfactant formulations are optimized according to reservoir conditions to ensure their efficiency in enhanced oil recovery (EOR). This experimental study aimed to examine the …
