Oil spills have long been a serious threat to marine environment. Physical recovery is the
safest and most efficient method in the emergency disposal of offshore oil spill. Graphene …

Given the combination of rising global energy demand and the decline in conventional
crudes, heavy crudes are generally considered to be the future energy resource. In many …

Advanced waterflooding processes through injection of optimized‐chemistry waters have
recently become popular for enhanced oil recovery (EOR) in carbonate reservoirs. In this …

An experimental study on crude oil (from the Tin Fouye Tabankort oil field in southern
Algeria) was carried out. This study allowed us to understand the rheological behavior of this …

During crude oil extraction, crude oil is often mixed with water, leading to the formation of
water-in-oil emulsions. Since these emulsions pose severe flow resistance, such as higher …

The increase in global energy demand for crude oil has encouraged a huge growth in crude
oil production worldwide. The flow behavior of crude oil poses many problems when …

Due to the high viscosity and low fluidity of crude oil at room temperature, the efficient
recovery of offshore oil spills by an environmental friendly way is still a global challenge. Oil …

The rheological properties of crude oil is highly affected by the operating and ambient
temperatures. In the present investigation, the viscosity of Basrah crude oil (API= 30.1) was …

In this work, the rheological behavior for three types of crude oil coming from different
quagmires namely Amassak, Tamendjelt and Tin Fouye of the TFT sector (Tin Fouye …

This study investigated the effect of Xanthan Gum on the stability, microstructure, and
rheological properties of water/crude oil emulsions using the Rheometer DRH2, a …
