Naturally fractured reservoirs are indescribable systems to characterize and difficult to
produce and forecast. For the development of such reservoirs, the role of naturally forming …

The different techniques such as enhanced oil recovery (EOR) and improved oil recovery
(IOR) have been used to enhance oil production. The surfactant flooding is a tertiary oil …

Micromodel flooding is a cost-effective method to investigate enhanced oil recovery. In this
study, we apply Lauryl Betaine as an amphoteric surfactant to the injected fluids into the …

Microfluidic devices are miniaturized systems that manipulate fluids on a small scale,
typically at microlitre or nanolitre volumes. They have received significant attention in …

In water flooding process, volumetric sweep efficiency and oil recovery can be enhanced
using polymer to increase the viscosity of water. As a result, polymer flooding has higher …

In this work, we attempted to evaluate the effects of gravity segregation and back pressure
on oil production characteristics during CH 4 flooding under multi-scale fracture conditions …

Gravity drainage is known as the controlling mechanism of oil recovery in naturally fractured
reservoirs. The efficiency of this mechanism is controlled by block-to-block interactions …

Gas-assisted gravity drainage (GAGD) is an effective method for oil recovery. Gravity
increases the stability of the Gas–Oil Contact (GOC), thus delaying gas breakthrough and …

Hydraulic fracturing plays a critical role in increasing the productivity of unconventional rock
formations. A priori knowledge of fracture fluid invasion rate (imbibition) and flowback …

The main goal for all enhanced oil recovery (EOR) processes is to gain additional oil
recovery after, or in some cases along primary and secondary recovery methods. For EOR …
