A review of wettability alteration using surfactants in carbonate reservoirs

Advances in Colloid and Interface Science, 2021
The wettability of carbonate rocks is often oil-wet or mixed wet. A large fraction of oil is still remained in carbonate reservoirs, it is therefore of particular significance to implement effective methods to improve oil recovery from carbonate ...

CARBONATE RESERVOIR DESCRIPTION

International Petroleum Exhibition and Technical Symposium, 1982
ABSTRACT Carbonate reservoirs are characterized by extremely heterogeneous porosity and permeability-These heterogeneities are caused by the wide spectrum of environments in which carbonates are deposited and by subsequent diagenetic alteration of the original rock fabric.

EVOLUTION OF RESERVOIR SIMULATION FOR A LARGE CARBONATE RESERVOIR

Proceedings of Middle East Oil Show, 1989
ABSTRACT Reservof-1 is a large carbonate reservoir that was discovered and developed in the 1940's. A brief description of the reservoir and major events of the field development are presented. A 2D areal model was constructed for the reservoir in the 1970's. The use and the shortcomings of the model are discussed.

APPLICABILITY OF STEAMFLOODING FOR CARBONATE RESERVOIRS

Proceedings of SPE/DOE Enhanced Oil Recovery Symposium, 1980
Abstract Steamflooding can be a technically effective recovery method for carbonate reservoirs within certain parameter ranges. The attractiveness of steamflooding relates to the fact that heat conduction is a powerful mechanism for influencing the oil in the low permeability matrix in a heterogeneous formation, and the ...

Integration of multiscale carbonate reservoir heterogeneities in reservoir simulation

Journal of Petroleum Science and Engineering, 2013
Abstract The construction of robust reservoir models considering geological carbonate heterogeneities, such as fractures and vugs, upscaling and numerical flow simulation remains a challenge. This work performs a methodology aiming a suitable representation of flow simulation and upscaling techniques according to small and large scale carbonate ...
