Nanoparticles-stabilized foam has recently attracted increasing attention for enhanced oil
recovery (EOR) applications, largely due to the potentially high stability of these foams in the …

A significant fraction of the conventional oil reserves globally is in carbonate formations
which contain a substantial amount of residual oil. Since primary and secondary recovery …

Enhanced Oil Recovery Field Case Studies bridges the gap between theory and practice in
a range of real-world EOR settings. Areas covered include steam and polymer flooding, use …

With the decline in oil discoveries during the last decades it is believed that EOR
technologies will play a key role to meet the energy demand in years to come. This paper …

Most oil fields today are mature, and the majority of the reservoirs in the Middle East are
carbonate rocks characterized by high temperature high salinity (HTHS), heterogeneous …

The application of foam in the upstream petroleum industry has gained significant interest in
the past few years. Foam usage can mitigate challenges associated with the gas flooding; it …

One of the pioneering applications of foam is in enhanced oil recovery (EOR). A major
stumbling-block to the success of foam application in EOR is the adverse influence of oil on …

Applications of nanotechnology in several fields of petroleum industry, eg, refinery, drilling
and enhanced oil recovery (EOR), have attracted a lot of attention, recently. This research …

A considerable portion of current world oil production comes from mature fields and the rate
of replacement of the produced reserves by new discoveries has been declining steadily …

In steady gas–liquid flow in homogeneous porous media with surfactant present, there is
often observed a critical injection velocity or pressure gradient∇ pmin at which “weak” or …
