Sustainable methods of synthesizing metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) are of paramount
importance to energy conservation efforts and environmental remediation. It can be a …

Enhanced oil recovery (EOR) processes have a great potential to maximize oil recovery
factor of the existing reservoirs, where a significant volume of the unrecovered oil after …

With the increasing demand for efficient extraction of residual oil, enhanced oil recovery
(EOR) offers prospects for producing more reservoirs' original oil in place. As one of the most …

Despite the progress made on renewable energy, oil and gas remains the world's primary
energy source. Meanwhile, large amounts of oil deposits remain unrecovered after …

Surfactant-based oil recovery processes are employed to lower the interfacial tension in
immiscible displacement processes, change the wettability of rock to a more water-wet …

Throughout the application of enhanced oil recovery (EOR), surfactant adsorption is
considered the leading constraint on both the successful implementation and economic …

Surfactants play a vital role in chemical enhanced oil recovery (cEOR). The amount of
surfactant loss caused by retention during flooding through reservoir rock is still a challenge …

Most oil fields today are mature, and the majority of the reservoirs in the Middle East are
carbonate rocks characterized by high temperature high salinity (HTHS), heterogeneous …

Surfactant injection into a depleted hydrocarbon reservoir is one of the ways to reduce
residual oil saturation, thereby enhancing crude oil production. However, surfactants …

The primary method for heavy oil and bitumen production across the world is still in-situ
steam-based technology. There are some drawbacks associated with steam-driven heavy …
