Oil and gas are only two industries that could change because of nanotechnology, a rapidly
growing field. The chemical-enhanced oil recovery (CEOR) method uses chemicals to …

Well construction operation is a crucial process that relies on the success of cementing job.
Cementing failure could lead to catastrophic aftermaths and huge capital loss to the …

This review comprehensively summarizes potential applications of SiO2–polymer
composites especially in oil industries: enhanced oil recovery (EOR), loss circulation (LC) …

The global demand for energy sources is increasing every day. Despite advances in
sustainable energy sources, the oil and gas industry remains the world's primary source of …

Nanoparticles (NPs) have been extensively studied for enhanced oil recovery (EOR), in
which the oil/brine/NPs interfacial properties play a critical role. However, the effects of NPs …

We investigated the usage of two silica nanomaterials (surface-modified) and alkali in
enhanced oil recovery through Amott spontaneous imbibition tests, interfacial tension (IFT) …

Magnetic hyperthermia (MH) is the phenomenon of increasing the temperature of a system
with magnetic nanoparticles (NPs) subjected to an alternating magnetic field (AMF). This …

Nanoparticles have great potential to mobilize trapped oil in reservoirs because of their
chemical, thermal, and interfacial properties. However, the direct application of magnetic …

In this paper, an experimental study of nanoparticle transport by foam is presented. Bubbles
made of N 2-gas were stabilized with either a cationic surfactant (Cetyl Trimethyl Ammonium …

Abstract" Nanoparticle-based enhanced oil recovery (Nano-EOR)" is an improved
waterflooding assisted by nanoparticles dispersed in the injection water. Many laboratory …
