Energies, 2021 The recovery of oil and gas from underground reservoirs has a pervasive impact on petroleum-producing companies’ financial strength. A significant cause of the low recovery is the plugging of reservoir rocks’ interconnected pores and associated ...

Energies, 2022 Hydraulic fracturing of shale gas reservoirs is characterized by large fracturing fluid consumption, long working cycle and low flowback efficiency. Huge amounts of fracturing fluid retained in shale reservoirs for a long time would definitely cause ...

Energies, 2021 The injection performance of carbon dioxide (CO2) for oil recovery depends upon its injection capability and the actual injection rate. The CO2–rock–water interaction could cause severe formation damage by plugging the reservoir pores and reducing the ...

CO2 Storage in Subsurface Formations: Impact of Formation Damage
EnergiesThe success of CO2 storage projects largely depends on addressing formation damage, such as salt precipitation, hydrate formation, and fines migration. While analytical models for reservoir behaviour during CO2 storage in aquifers and depleted gas fields

Dyna, 2020 Formation damage could potentially impede production and injection operations. Hence, characterization and discretization processes of formation damage should be connected to quantification and disaggregation techniques, relying on characterization ...

Formation damage simulation of a multi-fractured horizontal well in a tight gas/shale oil formation. [PDF]
J Pet Explor Prod Technol, 2023 Formation damage in drilling comes from drilling fluid invasion due to high differential pressure between a wellbore and the formation. This mechanism happens with fracture fluid invasion of multi-fractured horizontal wells in tight formations.

Energies, 2019 Drilling multilateral and horizontal wells through tight gas reservoirs is a very difficult task. The drilling fluid should be designed to reduce both fluid and solid invasion into the tight formation to avoid formation damage by aqueous phase trapping ...

Formation Damage Induced by Water-Based Alumina Nanofluids during Enhanced Oil Recovery: Influence of Postflush Salinity. [PDF]
ACS Omega, 2020 Injecting nanofluids (NFs) has been proven to be a potential method to enhance oil recovery. Stranded oil is produced by wettability alteration where nanoparticles form a wedge film on pore wall surfaces, which is thought to shrink the pore space of the ...

An insight review on formation damage induced by drilling fluids
Reviews in chemical engineering, 2022 Formation damage is an essential part of drilling and production evaluation, which has a significant effect on well productivity and economics. Drilling fluids are significant sources of formation damage by different mechanisms.

The Arabian journal for science and engineering, 2021 Reservoir formation damage is a major problem that the oil and gas industry has to mitigate in order to maintain the oil and gas supply. A case study is presented that identifies the impacts of formation damage and their causes in the Nubian ‘C ...
