An Experimental Investigation of Enhanced Oil Recovery Mechanisms in Nanofluid Injection Process
Li, Shidong (Doctoral thesis at NTNU;2016:37, Doctoral thesis, 2016)Nanotechnology is recently proposed to increase oil recovery in some literature. Nanoparticles, as part of nanotechnology, are chosen as novel enhanced oil recovery (EOR) agent. Compared with other chemical EOR agents, ... -
Enhanced Oil Recovery by Low Salinity Surfactant: Effect of Ions on Core and Pore Scales
Khanamiri, Hamid Hosseinzade (Doctoral theses at NTNU;2016:211, Doctoral thesis, 2016)Enhanced oil recovery (EOR) by surfactants is a well-established method in the petroleum industry. In a surfactant flooding, oil is mobilized and recovered by reduction of the interfacial tension (IFT) between oil and water ... -
Experimental Investigation of Polymer-Coated Silica Nanoparticles for Enhanced Oil Recovery.
Bila, Alberto Luis; Stensen, Jan Åge; Torsæter, Ole (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)Recently, polymer-coated nanoparticles were proposed for enhanced oil recovery (EOR) due to their improved properties such as solubility, stability, stabilization of emulsions and low particle retention on the rock surface. ... -
HyGreGel: A new class of gel systems for water diversion by in-depth reservoir placement
Najafiazar, Bahador (Doctoral theses at NTNU;2019:336, Doctoral thesis, 2019)High water production is typically a major problem late in the life cycle of a water flooded hydrocarbon reservoir. Reservoir heterogeneity plays a significant role in creating this problem. An example is highly permeable ... -
Polymer-Coated Silica Nanoparticles for Enhanced Oil Recovery in Water-Wet Berea Sandstone Core Plugs
Bila, Alberto Luis; Stensen, Jan Åge; Torsæter, Ole (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Innovative enhanced oil recovery (EOR) technologies are needed to ensure a more economical oil production to meet the growing energy demand. Silica nanoparticles have been widely studied for EOR applications due to their ... -
Polymer-functionalized silica nanoparticles for improving water flood sweep efficiency in Berea sandstones
Bila, Alberto; Stensen, Jan Åge; Torsæter, Ole (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Extraction of oil trapped after primary and secondary oil production stages still poses many challenges in the oil industry. Therefore, innovative enhanced oil recovery (EOR) technologies are required to run the production ...
