Application of in situ CO2 enhanced oil recovery in liquid-rich shale and low-temperature reservoirs
(2023-12)The injection of CO2 presents significant potential for enhancing oil production while minimizing environmental impact by storing CO2 within the oil reservoir. However, the realization of this potential is hindered by ... -
EXPERIMENTAL STUDY OF GAS INJECTION ENHANCED OIL RECOVERY IN SHALE RESERVOIRS
(2019)Miscible gas injection enhanced oil recovery (huff-n-puff gas injection) has received increased attention especially in the unconventional plays like the Eagle Ford, where oil recovery is as low as 5 – 10% (Sheng, ... -
FUNDAMENTAL UNDERSTANDING OF THE INTERFACIAL PHENOMENA INVOLVED IN THE CATALYSIS AT THE WATER-OIL INTERFACE OF NANOHYBRID-STABILIZED EMULSIONS
(2012)The development of reactive-separation processes in which products are separated from the reaction media (i.e. reactants and catalysts) in a single reaction unit is prized by energy and chemicals industries for its simplicity ... -
Numerical simulation study on CO2 injection for enhancing hydrocarbon recovery and sequestration in tight oil formations
(2014)Hydrocarbon resources from unconventional reservoirs, especially tight/shale plays, are changing the North America's energy prospect. Single digit percentage of oil shale recovery with current best practices, leaves a large ... -
PRODUCTION OF HYDROCARBONS FROM ORGANIC NANOPORES: A COMPREHENSIVE STUDY USING MOLECULAR SIMULATIONS
(2020-07)Molecular models of organic pores are created using molecular dynamics simulations to investigate fluid behavior of confined reservoir fluids and fluid transport through nanoporous shales, aiming to reveal the underlying ... -
Seismic signature of sedimentary rocks with CO₂ flooding
(2012)Surface seismic offers a promising technique to monitor CO₂ flood fronts during enhanced oil recovery process. Changes in seismic signature have been observed with CO₂ flooding but quantification of the seismic signature ... -
STUDY AND DEVELOPMENT OF IN-SITU CO2 ENHANCED OIL RECOVERY
(2018-05-11)While the injection of CO2 has great potential for increasing oil production, this potential is limited by site conditions and operational constraints such as the lack of proper infrastructure, limited cheap CO2 sources, ...
