This study used the diethylene triamine pentaacetic acid (DTPA)-seawater (SW) system to
modify the sandstone rock wettability and enhance oil recovery. The investigation involved …

Recently low-salinity waterflooding was introduced as an effective enhanced-oil-recovery
(EOR) method in sandstone and carbonate reservoirs. The recovery mechanisms that use …

Despite the positive aspects of low salinity water (LSW), this technique is relatively
expensive and unavailable in some countries. Furthermore, potential problems associated …

Chelating agents have the ability to capture metal ions from brine. This process helps to
decrease the salinity of injected water and prevents the formation of scale precipitation in …

While low salinity water (LSW) holds promise for improving oil recovery, its implementation
is comparatively costly due to the substantial volumes of fresh water required to dilute …

In recent years, chelating agents have garnered increasing attention due to their unique
capabilities in addressing challenges associated with chemically enhanced oil recovery …

The use of diethylenetriaminepentaacetic acid (DTPA) chelating agent has shown promising
results for enhanced oil recovery (EOR) in prior research. Several mechanisms, mainly …

In this paper, chelating agents were introduced as standalone fluids for enhancing the oil
recovery from carbonate and sandstone reservoirs. Chelating agents such as glutamic acid …

Enhanced oil recovery (EOR) using low salinity water has been proven experimentally and
at the field scale. One of the mechanisms behind recovery enhancement due to low salinity …

Recently, EDTA chelating agent solutions were proposed as a new chemical enhanced oil
recovery (CEOR) technique. The intention of this work is to address the possible mechanism …
