Fines migration and compaction in diatomaceous rocks

Journal of Petroleum Science and Engineering, 2014
Abstract Reservoir rocks typically have clay and other fine material attached to pore surfaces. Fines mobilization is advantageous in that the removal of fines from pore walls exposes water-wet rock thereby aiding oil recovery. On the other hand, fines mobilization is deleterious if mobilized particles obstruct pore throats. In this work, waterfloods

Fine-Scaled Orientation Changes in Migrating Shorebirds

Ardea, 2012
Flight directions and routes of migrating birds are determined by the birds' compass orientation, but also by effects of wind, social influence, responses to topography and landmarks, and to navigation cues. We investigated the orientation and routes taken by arctic shorebirds during autumn migration in southern Sweden at three different sites situated

Well Productivity Impairment Due to Fines Migration

SPE International Conference and Exhibition on Formation Damage Control, 2018
Abstract Compressibility needs to be accounted for when estimating productivity decline in closed gas and oil reservoirs, and in closed aquifers. Previous works derived an analytical model and well index for inflow performance accompanied by fines migration and consequent permeability damage for incompressible flow towards well.

Prediction of Fines Migration through Core Testing

SPE Annual Technical Conference and Exhibition, 2017
AbstractFines migration is a commonly observed phenomenon in oil and gas wells, but often difficult to duplicate in the laboratory. A suite of labs tests was conducted to gauge the effect that different test conditions have on fines migration and to improve fines migration prediction through updated test strategies.

Fine-Grained Failover Using Connection Migration

2004
This paper presents a set of techniques for providing fine-grained failover of long-running connections across a distributed collection of replica servers, and is especially useful for fault-tolerant and load-balanced delivery of streaming media and telephony sessions.

Injectivity formation damage due to fines migration

The APPEA Journal, 2018
Formation damage by fines migration during low-salinity water injection can greatly affect field-scale waterflooding projects. In this paper, we present the basic governing equations for single-phase flow with detachment, migration and straining of natural reservoir fines.

Compositional modeling of nanoparticle-reduced-fine-migration

Journal of Natural Gas Science and Engineering, 2016
Abstract During waterflooding, formation fines migration is a recognized reason for well injectivity and productivity reduction in sandstone reservoirs. Permeability decrease due to fines migration is one of the major issues in the application of low salinity enhanced oil recovery techniques.

High Temperature Acidization to Prevent Fines Migration

International Symposium and Exhibition on Formation Damage Control, 2002
Abstract As reservoirs deplete and water production increases, fines production often ensues. The produced fines then cause various forms of damage including screen plugging. To alleviate the plugging, acid washes are pumped onto the screens and then brought back to surface.

Soil Pollution due to Migration of Fines

1998
Many toxic chemicals adhere to fine particles; consequently the migration of fines containing contaminants can spread through our environment. There are two primary mechanisms by which the pollution can spread and grow: 1. the mobilization of fine particles carrying contaminants sorbed on their surface and thereby facilitating the transport ...
