Heavy oil resources have become increasingly important in recent years due to a reduction
in light oil production and an increase in energy consumption. A large number of heavy oil …

Thermal recovery technology is generally suitable for shallow lays due to the higher thermal
loss for the deep heavy-oil reservoirs. Non-thermal recovery technologies, such as the non …

In order to study a potential way to store CO 2 and enhance heavy oil production
performance, five experiments are implemented on the CO 2 huff'n'puff process using long …

In this study, experimental and mathematical studies were carried out to investigate heavy
oil production performance using the carbon dioxide (CO 2) huff-n-puff process, as well as …

Foam flooding is an important method used to protect oil reservoirs and increase oil
production. However, the research on foam fluid is generally focused on aqueous foam, and …

In this research, experimental and mathematical modeling studies were implemented to
determine the CO 2 diffusion coefficients in bulk phase (nontransparent high-pressure cell) …

A novel experimental procedure was proposed to investigate the phase behavior of a
solvent mixture (SM)(64 mol% CH 4, 8 mol% CO 2, and 28 mol% C 3 H 8) with heavy oil …

This study experimentally and mathematically investigated the foamy oil stability of a heavy
oil–CO 2 system. Experimentally, a new test method employing a gas cap was applied to …

Steam injection is one of the major recovery methods to exploit heavy oil reservoirs.
Replacing steam with hot solvent is an innovative idea to immensely decrease …

Solution gas drive from some heavy oil reservoirs exhibits foamy oil behavior. However, the
characteristics of oil that determine whether foamy oil behavior occurs have not been …
