Description
Hydrocarbon Recovery / Flow in Porous Media
Pore-scale simulation and analysis of oil displacement in digital rocks has shown great promise in tracking oil recovery in porous media. This paper examines three digital rocks with varying pore and throat radii but the same porosities, studying their behavior under immiscible oil recovery through waterflooding. Computational fluid dynamics was used to conduct numerical simulations to observe...
Heterogeneity in carbonate reservoirs, originating from various depositional, diagenetic, and fracturing processes, presents a significant challenge in identifying flow units and reservoir zonation. In this study, to identify the main productive units and understand the relationship between the pore nature and their role in development of different reservoir zones, core data and petrophysical...
Foam injection is an effective technique for enhancing the performance of gas-based processes in porous media. However, brine salinity is one of the factors that can significantly impact foam performance for subsurface applications. This study investigates the flow performance of foam generated using sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) as a foaming agent in two brine salinity levels (5000 and 35000...
تغییر ترشوندگی سنگ مهم ترین اثر سیلاب¬زنی با آب مهندسی شده در نظر گرفته می¬شود اما بیشتر رویکردهای موجود برای مدلسازی تغییر ترشوندگی و افزایش بازیافت نفت توسط معیارهای ساده ای توصیف می¬شوند و معمولا نقش واکنش های ژئوشیمیایی موجود در هر فصل مشترکهای آب-نفت و نفت-سنگ را در این فرآیند نادیده می¬گیرند. این پژوهش با استفاده از رویکردی جدید بر اساس محاسبات ژئوشیمیایی، استفاده از مدل هایی مبتنی بر...
