Oscillating Back Pressure Regulator (OBPR) for High-Pressure Core Flooding [PDF]
E3S Web of Conferences, 2023 The challenge in the core analysis industry is the availability of a versatile back pressure regulator (BPR) that can operate efficiently at ultra-low or no-flow conditions at very high pressure.

A Mechanistic Study of Wettability Alterations in Sandstone by Low Salinity Water Injection (LSWI) and CO2 Low Salinity Water-Alternating-Gas (WAG) Injection [PDF]
E3S Web of Conferences, 2023 Low salinity water injection (LSWI), an emerging Enhanced Oil Recovery (EOR) method, has proven to be effective in increasing oil recovery by wettability alteration. As low salinity water is injected into the reservoir, the pre-established equilibrium is

Research on foaming agents for gas flooding in medium-temperature and high-salinity clastic reservoirs [PDF]
E3S Web of Conferences, 2023 Anionic surfactants are commonly used as foaming agents in foam-enhanced oil recovery, but their performance is seriously affected by high temperature and high salinity environment.

Study on the influence of different key parameters on EOR in LB block [PDF]
E3S Web of Conferences, 2023 The high temperature reservoir is in the high water cut stage after long-term development, and the inefficiency or invalid circulation caused by injected water is aggravated. With a long development history, the well pattern has been adjusted many times,

The molecular explanation for polyacrylamide viscosity reduction in high-salinity formation-water
AIP Advances, 2021 Many oilfields report that the viscosity of polymers in high-salinity reservoirs will decrease significantly. In this paper, molecular dynamics simulations were conducted to investigate the molecular configuration and network of hydrolyzed polyacrylamide
