Quantitation and organic geochemical characterization of petroleum-like materials found on an undisturbed beach of the Padre Island National Seashore [PDF]
On June 3, 1979 the IXTOC I well in the Bay of Campeche 'blew out' with the subsequent release of 3 to 4 million barrels of oil. A major portion of that oil is known to have escaped recovery or was deliberately dispersed into the environment.

Schematic overview of the experimental workflow investigating the effects of LBPs on gut microbiota. ABSTRACT Wilson's disease (WD) is a rare autosomal recessive disorder characterized by impaired copper metabolism and progressive multi‐organ damage. Emerging evidence suggests that gut microbiota dysbiosis and reduced microbial fermentation capacity ...

ABSTRACT In the Recôncavo Basin, Northeast of Brazil, mud diapirs have been reported for decades, but their role within the basin's petroleum system remains poorly constrained. Here, we combine 2D seismic interpretation, field observations, and organic geochemical analyses of rocks and oil seeps to investigate the relationship between diapirism and ...

Liquid coal tar (CT) is synthesized into hypercrosslinked polymers (HCPs) via the Friedel–Crafts alkylation, followed by oxidation‐carbonization to form disordered microporous carbon. The resulting CF2CT exhibits a high three‐electrode specific capacitance of 342 F g−1 at 1 A g−1, and the assembled symmetric supercapacitor illuminates a light sign ...

Numerical Validation of Asphaltene Precipitation and Deposition during CO2 miscible flooding
Asphaltene precipitation, flocculation, and deposition can significantly reduce oil production by impacting wellbores, flowlines, and more importantly, formations’ pore space around the well.

This review systematically explores the molecular behavior of diverse surfactants (anionic, cationic, nonionic, amphoteric) at the oil–water interface through molecular dynamics simulations. It highlights their roles in reducing interfacial tension, altering interfacial structure, and enhancing oil recovery efficiency.

Three Dimensional Measurements of Asphaltene Deposition in a Transparent Micro-Channel [PDF]
This study describes a novel experimental approach to directly measure the thicknesses of asphaltene deposits in micro-channels. The thickness of the asphaltene deposit is estimated using a visualization technique based on 3D digital microscopy.

ABSTRACT Wax deposition in petroleum systems is intrinsically connected with paraffin wax composition, yet their quantitative characterization by one‐dimensional high‐temperature gas chromatography with flame ionization detection (HTGC–FID), as prescribed by ASTM D5442, remains challenging.
