This article reviews the results of measurement of optical properties of oil, such as
polarimetry, refractometric, luminescent-bituminological research, IR-spectrometry and UV …

Most commercial gaseous and liquid fuels are mixtures of multiple chemical compounds. In
recent years, these mixtures became even more complicated when the suppliers started to …

There is a large variety of sensing devices for the exploration of oil and gas. These sensors
must operate in exceedingly challenging environments, such as high temperatures and high …

Downhole fluid analysis (DFA) has emerged as a key technique for characterizing the
distribution of reservoir-fluid properties and determining zonal connectivity across the …

The paper describes results of a petrophysical study aimed to improve reservoir description
of a complex oil reservoir located in Western-Siberia, Russia. The K-field was put on …

A very large monotonic variation of asphaltenes and viscosity has been measured by
downhole fluid analysis (DFA) in crude oils in five-stacked sandstone reservoirs in the …

Petroleum reservoirs are enshrouded in mysteries associated with all manner of geologic
and fluid complexities that Mother Nature can inspire. Efficient exploitation of petroleum …

In the first study of its kind, we analyze heavy ends of crude oils to characterize oil reservoirs
by both in situ downhole fluid analysis (DFA) in oil wells along with heavy-end fingerprinting …

Oilfield reservoirs exhibit a wide array of complexities that have great impact on the
efficiency of oil production. Major challenges include delineating overall reservoir …

We present a technique of phase separation suitable for microfluidic systems and
demonstrate its efficient integration with a microfluidic optical cell for performing real-time …
