Nowadays, because of the reduction in oil resources and the passage of the first and second
life period of current reservoirs, using enhanced oil recovery (EOR) methods is of great …

Despite rapid advances in renewable energy extraction and utilization, global oil demand
continues to rise. Oil displacement technologies are widely studied and applied because …

Viscoelastic polymer flooding has been extensively used in oilfield development as an
enhanced oil recovery method. Understanding the microflow mechanism is necessary to …

This research aims to further understand the CO 2 flow behavior during CO 2 flooding. Here,
we used NMR to monitor oil saturation during core flooding experiments and volume of fluid …

Sequestration of CO2 in geologic formations such as depleted oil reservoirs has emerged as
one of the lead solutions to tackle greenhouse gas emissions to reduce pollution and global …

We perform micro-PIV measurements in micromodels using very simple optical equipment
combined with efficient image acquisition and processing. The pore-scale velocity …

Aqueous solutions with polymer additives often used to improve the macroscopic sweep
efficiency in oil recovery typically exhibit non-Newtonian rheology. In order to predict the …

Immiscible viscous fingering in porous media occurs when a high viscosity fluid is displaced
by an immiscible low viscosity fluid. This paper extends a recent development in the …

Recently, carbon capture, utilization, and storage (CCUS) with enhanced oil recovery (EOR)
have gained a significant traction in an attempt to reduce greenhouse gas emissions …

Immiscible viscous fingering in porous media occurs when a low viscosity fluid displaces a
significantly more viscous, immiscible resident fluid; for example, the displacement of a …
