Promising application of probiotic microorganisms as Pickering emulsions stabilizers

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2023
The purpose of this work was to study the ability of nineteen food-grade microorganisms as Pickering emulsion (PE) stabilizers. Medium-chain triacylglycerol (MCT) oil-in-water (50:50) PEs were fabricated by 10 wt% or 15 wt% of thermally-inactivated yeast,

Enhancing the spontaneous imbibition rate of water in oil-wet dolomite rocks through boosting a wettability alteration process using carbonated smart brines

open access: yesPetroleum Science, 2019
Most fractured carbonate oil reservoirs have oil-wet rocks. Therefore, the process of imbibing water from the fractures into the matrix is usually poor or basically does not exist due to negative capillary pressure.

ENHANCED OIL RECOVERY (EOR)

open access: yes, 2022
Recently, the Enhanced Oil Recovery (EOR) research and implemented projects (pilots/full field) show massive interest from all major E&P companies, especially CO2 injection or flooding in oil reservoirs, to improve the oil recovery of the target reservoirs. Enhanced Oil Recovery (EOR) projects are usually applied after the secondary recovery phase.

Recent advances on the application of low salinity waterflooding and chemical enhanced oil recovery

open access: yesEnergy Reports, 2022
Enhanced oil recovery (EOR) is used to retrieve capillary trapped and bypassed oil in the reservoir. Accordingly, laboratory and field applications of chemical EOR (CEOR) methods have been evaluated with varying degrees of efficiency.

Static and Dynamic Investigation of Effective Parameters on Water Injection Performance in the Presence of Nanofluids [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Water and Environmental Nanotechnology, 2018
Oil production from oil reservoirs containing oil in water (O/W) and water in oil (W/O) emulsions has always been accompanied by some problems. The increase in apparent viscosity of the oil, pore throats blockage, and consequently, the increased rate of ...
