Steam injection is a widely used oil-recovery method that has been commercially successful
in many types of heavy-oil reservoirs, including the oil sands of Alberta, Canada. Steam is …

One of the important ways to capture CO 2 is to inject it into the (sub) surface water. This
study focuses on laboratory measurements and modelling to find diffusion coefficient of CO …

Steam injection is a widely used oil recovery method that has been commercially successful
in many types of heavy oil reservoirs, including oil sands of Alberta. Steam is very effective in …

Injecting low saline water is one of the practices used to improve hydrocarbon production
that has recently significantly grown due to its advantages over seawater and chemical …

Abstract Carbon Capture and Storage is developed as state-of-the-art method to bring CO 2
emissions under control. Among different options, saline aquifers are viable choices to …

Vapour extraction (VAPEX) is a nonthermal process using vapourized solvents, with
promising potential to reduce steam consumption in heavy-oil recovery. The key recovery …

Flow of three phases, of which one is miscible with another, in porous media may commonly
be encountered during enhanced-oil-recovery (EOR) applications in oil reservoirs. Typical …

There are tremendous heavy oil and bitumen resources in Canada, and most of them are
located in the Western Canadian Sedimentary Basin. Thermal-based recovery techniques …

Low-salinity water flooding (LSWF) is one of techniques that can be used to improve oil
production and has gained a significant attention in these days because of its advantages …

Due to the unfavourable mobility ratio of heavy oil and water, waterflooding cannot be used
successfully without the support of natural energies (such as solution gas drive, foamy oil …
