Several researchers have investigated the dominant recovery mechanisms among the
wettability alteration and interfacial tension (IFT) reduction during surfactant flooding in …

Oil recovery in natural fracture reservoirs can be improved by reducing the capillary force
during the gravity drainage process in matrix-fracture system. In the current study, a modified …

The impetus for this work stemmed from the growing demand in the industry for Carbon
Dioxide sequestration during incremental oil recovery and gas or solvent injection for heavy …

Although the production mechanism of CO 2-enhanced coalbed methane (ECBM) recovery
has been previously reported and corresponding models have been proposed …

Enhanced oil recovery (EOR) from heavy oil reservoirs is challenging. High oil viscosity,
high mobility ratio, inadequate sweep, and reservoir heterogeneity adds more challenges …

Laboratory miscible CO 2 and CO 2-foam injection tests were performed to study CO 2 EOR
in fractured carbonate core plugs and to evaluate the feasibility of using foam for mobility …

One of the important ways to capture CO 2 is to inject it into the (sub) surface water. This
study focuses on laboratory measurements and modelling to find diffusion coefficient of CO …

The flow of CO2 in porous media is fundamental to many engineering applications and
geophysical processes. Yet detailed CO2 flow visualization remains challenging. We …

Carbonate reservoirs, deposited in the Western Canadian Sedimentary Basin (WCSB), hold
significant reserves of heavy crude oil that can be recovered by nonthermal processes …

CO 2 injection is one of the most promising techniques to enhance oil recovery. The most
favorable properties of CO 2 made this method popular and it has been widely used since …
