Tight reservoirs, characterized by low porosity, low permeability, and difficulty in fluid flow,
rely on horizontal wells and large-scale hydraulic fracturing for development. During …

Surfactant adsorption is a major problem encountered with the surfactant polymer flooding.
A lot of additives have been used in this regard to tackle this problem. In the present study, a …

Surfactant polymer flooding is one of the most common chemical enhanced oil recovery
techniques, which improves not only the microscopic displacement of the fluid through the …

The most widely accepted technique of tertiary recovery is alkaline surfactant polymer (ASP)
flooding. In situ surfactants are formed owing to the interaction of alkali with the carboxylic …

Oil recovery efficiency can be increased by applying the enhanced oil recovery (EOR)
processes, which are based on the improvement of mobility ratio, reduction of interfacial …

The organic solvent-free aqueous phase separation (APS) process is a new and sustainable
alternative to the conventional nonsolvent-induced phase separation (NIPS) process …

This research aims to test four new polymers for their stability under high salinity/high
hardness conditions for their possible use in polymer flooding to improve oil recovery from …

This paper presents the use of response surface methodology (RSM) and robust supervised
machine learning approaches to model nano-polymeric viscosity. In the absence of studies …

In this paper, a novel warm mix additive, Siligate, has been developed for applications in low-
temperature regions. Its effect on the performance of asphalt binder was compared to …

Polymers applications have been progressively increased in sciences and engineering
including chemistry, pharmacology science, and chemical and petroleum engineering due …
