Microscopic imbibition characterization of sandstone reservoirs and theoretical model optimization
Scientific Reports, 2021 Traditional porous media imbibition models deviate from the actual imbibition process in oil and gas reservoirs. Experimental studies on gas–water imbibition in reservoirs were carried out to describe the dynamic profile variation process of wet phase ...

A Critical Review of Osmosis-Associated Imbibition in Unconventional Formations
Energies, 2021 In petroleum engineering, imbibition is one of the most important elements for the hydraulic fracturing and water flooding processes, when extraneous fluids are introduced to the reservoir.

Energy Exploration & Exploitation, 2021 Spontaneous imbibition is an important mechanism of oil recovery from fractured reservoirs and unconventional reservoirs. Oil is produced by combining co- and counter-current imbibition when the matrix blocks was partially covered by water. In this paper,

Effects of Clay Minerals and External Pressures on Imbibition in Shales
Energies, 2021 Imbibition is an important mechanism of recovery during waterflooding and low flow-back during fracking in shale reservoirs. Experiments were carried out to study the development of imbibition in shale samples.

Physicochemical mechanism of water phase imbibition in shale reservoirs [PDF]
Youqicang pingjia yu kaifa, 2023 Shale gas reservoirs, which develope micro-nano pore throats and fractures, have high clay mineral content, and strong heterogeneity of porosity. Therefore, large-scale hydraulic fracturing is usually needed to realize the effective exploitation.

Anomalous Roughening of Viscous Fluid Fronts in Spontaneous Imbibition [PDF]
, 2005 We report experiments on spontaneous imbibition of a viscous fluid by a model porous medium in the absence of gravity. The average position of the interface satisfies Washburn's law.

Geofluids, 2020 Low-permeability reservoirs have tiny pores with winding and complicated pore throats. The oil recovery efficiency of low-permeability reservoirs can be enhanced through the displacement of reservoir oil through imbibition.

Intrinsic versus super-rough anomalous scaling in spontaneous imbibition [PDF]
, 2006 We study spontaneous imbibition using a phase field model in a two dimensional system with a dichotomic quenched noise. By imposing a constant pressure $\mu_{a}
