In‐situ asphaltene capture with iron oxide nanoparticles in steam‐assisted gravity drainage (SAGD) for improved recovery and partial upgrading of bitumen

The Canadian Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
Key improvements obtained by incorporating nanoparticles into a lab‐scale SAGD process configuration. The bar plots show enhanced oil recovery, reduced viscosity, and increased asphaltene adsorption in nanoparticle‐assisted scenarios compared with conventional SAGD.

Modeling Petrophysical Properties Input for Probabilistic Reserves Estimation

, 2011
While the popularity of the numerical simulation approach (such as the Monte Carlo) for probabilistic reserves estimation has never been higher among geoscientists and reservoir engineers, comparatively little attention has been paid to the techniques ...

Rock mechanical properties under reconstructed deep in situ thermo–hydro–mechanical conditions: Implications for CO₂‐related injection scenarios

Deep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
The graphical abstract illustrates a reconstructed in situ thermo‐hydro‐mechanical (THM) framework in which porosity serves as the central variable linking stress, pore pressure, and temperature to evolving mechanical properties of rocks. Under burial conditions, in situ stress, pore pressure, and temperature jointly govern volumetric strain and ...

Integrated numerical simulation and source‐sink matching methodology for Basin‐Wide CO2 storage assessment in depleted reservoirs: A Cambay Basin case study

Deep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
This study presents an integrated workflow to evaluate secure and large‐scale CO2 storage in depleted oil reservoirs of the Cambay Basin, India. Industrial CO2 sources are systematically matched with mature oil fields using a quantitative source–sink framework to minimize transport distance and cost.

Low‐Temperature in Situ Upgrading of Ultra‐Deep Heavy Oil Using Ni–Ce/MOF–OTf Superacid Catalysts to Enhance Energy Utilization and Sustainability

EcoEnergy, EarlyView.
A triflate‐functionalized Ni–Ce/MOF–OTf superacid enables low‐temperature (∼140°C) in situ upgrading of ultra‐deep heavy oil. It reduces viscosity by 92.11% in 12 h, maintains activity over cycles, and delivers 90.25% recovery with a lower carbon footprint by selective bond cleavage. ABSTRACT Ultra‐deep heavy oil is an important unconventional resource,
