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 fast depletion of oil reserves has steered the petroleum industry towards develo**
novel and cost-effective enhanced oil recovery (EOR) techniques in order to get the most out …

Formation damage caused by fine migration and straining is a well-documented
phenomenon in sandstone reservoirs. Fine migration and the associated permeability …

Low salinity waterflooding has proven to accelerate oil production at core and field scales.
Wettability alteration from a more oil-wetting to a more water-wetting condition has been …

This study investigates fines migration and mineral reactions as a mechanism for CO 2
residual trap**. We perform imbibition experiments using a sintered glass core and seven …

The incompatibility between workover fluid and reservoir rock is one of the causes of
formation damage. Fines migration and clay swelling are considered as the major …

Marine gas hydrate is widely distributed in clayey silt sediments, which have high clay
content and low permeability. The decomposition of natural gas hydrate will cause the …

A novel mechanism of residual oil reduction during low-salinity water flooding by induced
fines migration and consequent permeability damage is discovered. Dry corefloods (without …

Fines migration is considered one of the mechanisms of permeability alteration associated
with water injection in aquifers and oil reservoirs. However, there has been limited direct …

Low salinity (LS) water injection has emerged as one the most promising methods of
improved oil recovery (IOR). However, its performance is often adversely affected by …
