Foams are used as an enhanced oil recovery (EOR) method to reduce the mobility of
injected gaseous phases. However, foam stability is often compromised under harsh …

Shale hydration has been a frequent and challenging technical problem causing wellbore
instability in oil and gas drilling processes. The aim of this study is to design a novel …

We discuss colloidal-suspension-nano transport in porous media with particle detachment
and further capture by the matrix. Previous works formulate particle-scale detachment …

Fines migration causes formation damage in sandstone reservoirs and water-bearing
subsurface formations. Several factors affect fines migration such as composition and …

Nanoparticles have gained significance in modern science due to their unique
characteristics and diverse applications in various fields. Zeta potential is critical in …

In the petroleum industry, the remaining oil is often extracted using conventional chemical
enhanced oil recovery (EOR) techniques, such as polymer flooding. Nanoparticles have …

Fines migration is a widespread cause of productivity problems for oil production wells.
Modelling efforts often focus on the effect of high fluid velocities in the near wellbore region …

Fines migration in sandstone oil reservoirs during different field operations is influenced by
the salinity of injected brine. When salinity drops below a critical salt concentration (CSC) …

This study investigates the temperature‐dependent micellization behaviors of saponin and
sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) surfactants, which are both important for chemical enhanced …

Injection water pH affects the release of fines in sandstones. The force equilibrium between
fines and sand governs the attachment or release of fines in the system. At a pH higher than …
