Oil reservoir formation damage is a challenging issue associated with water and/or gas
reservoir flooding in secondary and tertiary oil recovery operations. Some enhanced oil …

Applications of nanotechnology in several fields of petroleum industry, eg, refinery, drilling
and enhanced oil recovery (EOR), have attracted a lot of attention, recently. This research …

Coal seam water injection has been shown to be an effective method for controlling coal and
gas outburst disasters in coal mines. However, the shortcomings, such as poor wettability of …

A novel concept of treating oil reservoirs by nanofluids is being developed to improve oil
recovery and reduce the trapped oil in hydrocarbon reservoirs. Nanoparticles show great …

More than half of the global oil reserves are in carbonate reservoirs. Carbonate rocks,
however, in most cases tend to be mixed-wet or oil-wet. Wettability alteration of carbonate …

Water-based drilling fluids (WBDFs), a more environment-friendly candidate than oil-based
are widely used for drilling oil and gas wells. However, wellbore instability due to active clay …

Recently, nanofluids' application in enhanced oil recovery (EOR) studies has been severely
confined in low saline environments due to instability. In this study, a novel nanofluid was …

Although significant efforts have been made in research areas related to Enhanced oil
recovery (EOR) and the role of rock wettability alteration (WA) at reservoir conditions using …

Coal seam water injection is proved an effective method for preventing coal and gas
outburst. However, the poor wettability of coal seam has resulted in poor effect of coal seam …

Understanding water saturation levels in tight gas carbonate reservoirs is vital for optimizing
hydrocarbon production and mitigating challenges such as reduced permeability due to …
