Low salinity waterflooding (LSW) has been proved to be a promising technique in improving
oil recovery for both sandstone and carbonate reservoirs. Sandstone and carbonate are two …

Permeability reduction and formation damage in porous media caused by fines (defined as
unconfined solid particles present in the pore spaces) migration is one of the major reasons …

Hydraulic fracturing of unconventional hydrocarbon resources involves the sequential
injection of a high-pressure, particle-laden fluid with varying pH's to make commercial …

Injection of chemicals and thermal fluids in discovered petroleum reservoirs are becoming
more commonplace to achieve improved recovery and sustainability of oil/gas resources. A …

Due to the challenges of discovering new energy sources, enhanced oil recovery (EOR)
techniques remain a potential area of research interest to produce residual oil in matured …

The book that makes transport in porous media accessible to students and researchers alike
Porous Media Transport Phenomena covers the general theories behind flow and transport …

Sandstone formations are ubiquitous in both aquifers and petroleum reservoirs, of which
clay is a major constituent. The release of clay particles from pore surfaces as a result of …

Coal fines can substantially influence coal seam gas reservoir permeability, thus impeding
the flow of gas in coal microstructure. The coal fines generation and migration are influenced …

Geothermal tail water reinjection (GTWR) is a worldwide conundrum that restricts the
sustainable exploitation of porous sandstone geothermal reservoirs (PSGR). Particle …

Formation damage due to fines migration results, potentially, in significant decreases in
reservoir permeability and, hence, the recoverability of crude oil from reservoirs. On the …
