A number of difficulties may be encountered in the final stages of oil field exploitation,
including the formation of asphalt–resin–paraffin deposits (ARPDs). It is expedient to use …

Gas hydrates (GH) are well known to have an influential effect on the velocity and
attenuation of gas hydrate-bearing sediments (GHBS). Based on rock physics modeling …

In this work, the process of low salinity water injection (LSWI) into reservoirs at various salt
concentrations was simulated in order to study the change in the oil recovery factor during …

Asphalt or oil spills containing asphaltene can contaminate soil, water bodies, and
ecosystems. Natural balances are disrupted by this contamination. Asphaltene contaminates …

This study introduces a comprehensive and cost-effective approach to diagnose and treat
the asphaltenes precipitation problems in different downhole conditions. The proposed …

Heavy and extra heavy oil exploitation has attracted attention in the last few years because
of the decline in the production of conventional crude oil. The high viscosity of heavy crude …

In recent years, an insurmountable problem in high-wax oil production has been the
intensive formation of organic deposits in the bottom-hole zone of the formation, downhole …

Reinjection into reservoirs to displace oil is an environmentally friendly and efficient way to
treat and use produced oily sewage. However, the permeability damage to the reservoir by …

In the process of field exploration, along with regular flooding, a significant part of the wells
is flooded prematurely due to leakage of the string and outer annulus. In an effort to intensify …

The efficacy of three comb polymer paraffin inhibitors (PI) having distinct structural
differences was assessed in oils of increasing complexity; dodecane, diesel and a light West …
