Numerical simulation of multiphase fluid flow in naturally fractured reservoirs.
(1983)
A new mathematical flow model is derived for characterizing the multiphase fluid flow phenomenon in naturally fractured reservoirs. This model treats the reservoir as a double porosity medium consisting of a heterogeneous, ...
An experimental investigation on the use of a caustic-nitrogen injection process in a waterflooded oil reservoir.
(1982)
The experimental results indicated that the recovery of the residual oil is mainly dominated by the Jamin Effect, and the selective plugging of the flooded pore paths provides the necessary mechanism to overcome the Jamin ...
Development and properties of a self-bursting pellet as agglomerated from coal fines by use of an organic binder.
(1980)
In all aspects of the mining, processing, and handling of coal, fine particles are generated that are in many cases wasted. These fines can be agglomerated into strong and durable pellets by use of an organic binder which ...
Multi-criteria optimization model for thermal recovery processes.
(1983)
In the Loco field case study, the steam drive enhances the heavy oil recovery by decreasing the oil viscosity and increasing the injectivity; therefore, a quicker return of investment is predicted. However, the in-situ ...
The accuracy of pulsed neutron capture logs for residual oil saturation determinations.
(1981)
Pulsed neutron capture logs have been used to determine residual oil saturations for many years. A previous study found that at low values of residual oil saturation (ROS) conventional pulsed neutron logging techniques did ...
Pressure analysis and water flooding performance of heterogeneous oil reservoirs.
(1980)
Also, this study presents a modification to the Dykstra-Parson method to predict water flooding performance of multilayered composite reservoirs. The modification takes into account the variations in reservoir properties ...
Finite element analysis of the heat and mass transfer in a magma body.
(1981)
The conductive moving boundary model developed in this study indicates that the solidification of magma takes more time when the latent heat of fusion is considered. The convective moving boundary model shows that the ...
Development of suitable approximation algorithms to be used in the description of heterogeneous reservoirs for secondary recovery studies.
(1981)
The prediction method makes use of flow capacity distributions in a heterogeneous reservoir.
An experimental study of crude oil recovery by high pressure nitrogen injection.
(1980)
The results of this experimental investigation showed the compositional distribution of the vapor phase throughout the core during the nitrogen injection process. The mechanism of the nitrogen displacement process was ...
