Low-salinity water flooding (LSW) is a promising new technique for enhancing oil recovery
(EOR) in both sandstone and carbonate reservoirs. The potential of LSW has drawn the …

The rising energy demand and the rapid decline in conventional oil recovery have pushed
the petroleum industry to develop advanced oil recovery techniques. Despite the success of …

The goal of the present paper is to provide a comprehensive review of the literature
describing the physical and chemical mechanisms for enhanced oil recovery under smart …

Carbonated water injection (CWI) is a promising enhanced oil recovery (EOR) technique in
which the dissolved CO 2 can transfer to the oil phase to improve the oil mobility and to …

The limitation of primary and secondary flooding results in more than 60% of original oil in
place (OOIP) remains in the reservoir. High interfacial tension (IFT) between crude oil-rock …

With the increasing energy demand, oil is still an important fuel source worldwide. The
chemical flooding process is used in petroleum engineering to increase the recovery of …

The main target of this research is the development of a novel nanocomposite consisting of
copper (II) and titanium oxide nanoparticles and polyacrylamide (PAM) polymer for use as a …

This study intends to take a new look at the application of NPs as a nanocomposite form for
the first time to gain the most from the effects of them for EOR purposes. For this, TiO 2/SiO 2 …

Nanoparticles (NPs) have shown showed a promising role in improving oil recovery as
potential enhanced oil recovery (EOR) agents. In this study, one-pot green technique was …

Combined enhanced oil recovery (EOR) methods have been proposed to benefit from
several simultaneous mechanisms. The application of nanoparticles and carbonated water …
