Brine-dependent recovery, which involves injected water ionic composition and strength,
has seen much global research efforts in the past two decades because of its benefits over …

During chemical EOR, surfactants encounter significant losses when injected into porous
media mainly due to retention. The key mechanisms of surfactant retention are adsorption …

Due to the importance of the dolomite mineral in carbonate reservoirs, the wettability
characteristics of dolomite surfaces were studied with both experiments and molecular …

Abstract Smart Water ions (Ca 2+, Mg 2+, and SO 4 2−) have been found to alter the
wettability of oil-wet calcite surfaces, however, the widely proposed multi-ion exchange …

Известно, что разработка нефтяных и газовых месторождений сопровождается
изменением целого ряда природных физических свойств пород-коллекторов …

Brine-dependent recovery process has seen much global research efforts in the past two
decades because of their benefits over other oil recovery methods. The process involves the …

Recent studies on carbonate reservoirs suggest that modifying the injected brine chemistry
leads to a competition amongst ions at the rock surface sites, causing alteration in the rock …

The brine-dependent recovery process involves the tweaking of the ionic composition and
strength of the injected water compared to the initial in-situ brine to improve oil production …

Wettability reversal is one of the most important processes involved in chemical enhanced
oil recovery (EOR) from oil-wet carbonate reservoirs. Among the most effective chemical …

Abstract Accurately modeling Low Salinity Water Injection (LSWI) is essential for reliable
predictions of oil recovery which affects exploration project planning and investment …
