Spontaneous imbibition is an area of significant interest to the petroleum industry due to its
large contribution to oil production in mature and fractured fields. This work discusses the …

Primary drainage capillary pressure data are usually correlatable with a 3D predictable
property of grid cells. Accordingly, rock typing is normally performed based on an …

In light of the high treatment costs for massive amounts of fracturing flow-back fluid and its
harmfulness to the environment, a novel method of recycled fracturing flow-back fluid (RFFF) …

Previous research has confirmed that substantial yield has been recovered in the soaking
period after hydraulic fracturing. Spontaneous imbibition (SI) is the primary mechanism …

Spontaneous imbibition is an important mechanism for developing fossil hydrogen energy.
However, the research of imbibition micromechanisms and scaling methods in tight …

Tight oil reservoirs are an unconventional hydrocarbon resource with great potential to help
meet energy demands. Horizontal drilling and hydraulic fracturing has been extensively …

This paper presents new data on core-scale wettability alteration of carbonate porous media
with FM concentrations up to 30 wt% in NaCl brine. Experimental data from Amott tests, core …

Capillary imbibition is an important recovery mechanism in naturally fractured reservoirs
when water-filled fractures surround water-wet matrix blocks. A large amount of studies of …

During the drilling in shale reservoirs using water-based drilling fluids, shale hydration leads
to various risks such as wellbore collapse and stuck drills. However, the mechanism of shale …

Spontaneous Imbibition (SI) is an important mechanism of enhancing oil recovery in tight oil
reservoirs. Predicting core-scale oil flow rate by water imbibition from the pore-scale SI …
