Understanding the rock/fluid interaction is key to the success of any enhanced oil recovery
(EOR) method. However, EOR methods are significantly affected when the reservoir …

A wide range of enhanced oil recovery (EOR) methods has been proposed to accelerate the
recovery of remaining oil in subsurface reservoirs. One important class of methods is water …

Polymer flooding is one of the most commonly used chemical enhanced oil recovery (EOR)
methods. Conventionally, this technique was believed to improve macroscopic sweep …

While many low salinity studies have been conducted on chalks, calcite minerals and
sandstone rocks, few research articles have explored the same for applications in dolomite …

Water flooding is one of the important methods for develo** ultralow permeability
reservoirs. However, due to the high clay mineral content in these reservoirs and poor …

The injection performance of carbon dioxide (CO2) for oil recovery depends upon its
injection capability and the actual injection rate. The CO2–rock–water interaction could …

Several laboratory studies observed wettability alteration of carbonate rocks towards a more
water-wet state through modifying the composition of injected water. The change in …

The injection of engineered water to increase the oil recovery from carbonates is
increasingly becoming popular due to its reduced environmental impact and low cost of …

Carbonates are characterized by low oil recovery due to their positive surface charge and
consequent high affinity to negatively charged crude oil, rendering them to a state of mixed …

Several benefits of CO 2 injection are reported in the literature such as its ability to mitigate
greenhouse gas emissions and the increase in oil recovery at a low cost. However, the …
