Modeling Microemulsion Phase Behavior With Consideration of Phase Partitioning of Co-Solvent
(2017-05-12)
Co-solvents are widely used to improve chemical flooding formulations design, but partitioning of co-solvent within phases has great impacts on microemulsion phase behavior. Microemulsion phase behavior plays a key role ...
Experimental Investigation of Molecular Hydrogen Effect on Cement Related to Well Integrity for Underground Hydrogen Storage
(2022)
Underground Hydrogen Storage (UHS) in the subsurface is an alternative to overcome limitations associated with a fluctuating production of renewable energy sources. The excess energy produced can be converted to hydrogen ...
INTERPRETATION OF INTER-WELL CHEMICAL TRACER TEST
(2017)
For the first time, this thesis presents a new approach to characterize reservoir layering and cross flow between layers using Inter-Well Chemical Tracer Test (ICTT). ICTT is a well-known reliable test for reservoir ...
Evaluating Treatment Parameters Toward Optimizing Production From Gas Reservoirs Using Wettability Alteration
(2019)
Retrograde condensation in gas reservoirs results in a significant loss in well deliverability. A ring of condensate forms near the wellbore as a result of reservoir pressure falling below the dew point of the reservoir ...
Impact of Viscous Acid-in-Oil Emulsion Formation on Well Productivity Following Acid Stimulation
(2016-12-16)
Acid stimulation techniques matrix acidizing and acid fracturing are commonly applied in carbonate reservoirs. The goal of such techniques is to increase well productivity by enhancing permeability in the near wellbore ...
Measurement and analysis of oil-gas diffusion at reservoir conditions: application to huff-n-puff EOR in unconventional reservoirs
(2020)
Due to the extremely low permeability and high depletion rate, primary recovery from unconventional reservoirs is generally low. Huff-n-Puff has proved to be a successful EOR technique in tight formations, such as the Eagle ...
Removal of Residual Oil From Produced Water Using Magnetic Nanoparticles
(2019-08)
The production of wastewater during hydrocarbon recovery is an unresolvable factor of the oil and gas industry. Oil wells in the US produce on average, nearly 10 barrels of water for every 1 barrel of oil. Most of the ...
Forecasting Natural Gas Prices in the United States Using Artificial Neural Networks
(2016-05-13)
Prediction of the natural gas price is imperative to producers, suppliers, traders, market makers, and bankers involved in the natural gas exploration, production transportation, and trading. Additionally, consumers are ...
Interpretational variations of seismic attribute analysis as compared within the time and depth domains
(2022)
Migration is one of the crucial data processing steps re-locating the recorded seismic events to their true locations, suppressing the diffractions and thus, providing more accurate imaging of the subsurface. It can be ...
THE KEROGEN 3D SOLID STATE STRUCTURE MODELING AND ITS APPLICATIONS IN RESERVOIR SIMULATION
(2016-12-16)
A 3D solid state Green River Oil Shale kerogen model was built in this thesis through the following two steps: 1. a molecular nanocluster model of kerogen composed of seven molecules was built based on an adsorption method; ...
