Compositional reservoir models have many uses, including petroleum reservoir simulation,
the simulation of flow and remediation of nonaqueous petroleum liquids, and the study of …

CO2 injection into an oil reservoir at low temperature can lead to the formation of three
hydrocarbon phases. Key challenges persist in the development of phase equilibrium …

Our earth is composed of matters that appear as distinct phase states. The apparent ones
include vapor phase, liquid phase, and solid phase. In a typical summer walk in a southwest …

Two-phase and three-phase equilibria are frequently encountered in a variety of industrial
processes, such as carbon dioxide (CO 2) injection for enhanced oil recovery in oil …

A novel phase-boundary tracking method is proposed to precisely capture the vapor-
liquid/liquid-asphaltene and vapor-liquid/liquid-liquid two-phase boundaries in pressure …

Despite the advancement in simulation technology, a great challenge for unconventional
resources is relevant to the correct representation of phase equilibria in nanopores and the …

Carbon dioxide (CO 2) flooding has been widely applied to enhance oil recovery. In low
temperature reservoirs, CO 2 injection may result in the formation of three hydrocarbon …

In this work, phase behavior was analyzed for recombined mixtures of a Brazilian pre-salt
crude oil with carbon dioxide and methane. This oil was sampled at stock tank conditions …

The results of three coreflood experiments are reported which were performed to investigate
intermittent CO 2 and viscosity-reducing gas (VRG) injection for enhanced heavy oil …

An aqueous phase, which exists due to the presence of the original water saturation or
appears due to the use of secondary and tertiary recovery methods (such as water flooding …
