Carbon dioxide (CO 2) emissions present one of the world's most pressing issues as a
primary drive for climate change. This requires a viable solution through capture and storage …

Surfactant flooding is widely used in enhanced heavy oil recovery. It is important to
understand the mechanisms involved in different stages of surfactant flooding at the pore …

Greenhouse gas mitigation and utilization attract huge attentions in energy and environment
domains worldwide while few technologies enable to satisfy the both concurrently. In this …

With the ongoing advancement in oil exploration, microemulsion, as an innovative oil
displacement method, has garnered considerable attention owing to its exceptional …

Herein, the effect of gas-bubble generation by a chemical reaction on viscous fingering (VF)
is investigated using a Hele–Shaw cell in a miscible two-phase liquid. Sodium bicarbonate …

In this paper, we discuss the effects of a foam generated by a chemical reaction on viscous
fingering (VF) as observed using a Hele–Shaw cell and a microchannel. Sodium …

Cyclic solvent injection (CSI) has emerged as a promising and environment-friendly heavy
oil production process. One of its main recovery mechanisms is foamy-oil flow. This study …

Nonequilibrium exsolution kinetics of methane and propane in heavy oil were studied
through visual experimentations and continuum simulations. Experimentally, novel Constant …

Foamy-oil flow is one of the main mechanisms for cold heavy oil production with sand
(CHOPS) and cyclic solvent injection (CSI) processes. The flow pattern of foamy oil was …

Combining multiple secondary oil recovery (SOR)/enhanced oil recovery (EOR) methods
can be an effective way to maximize oil recovery from heavy oil reservoirs; however …
