• 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 ...
    • Mathematical Optimization in Reservoir Management 

      Najafiazar, Bahador (Master thesis, 2014)
      Getting the most out of a hydrocarbon reservoir is not a trivial task. It takes plentyof interwoven decisions to make. There are many forms of tools that support engineersto make correct decisions. The simplest ones would ...
    • Polymer Gels Made with Functionalized Organo-Silica Nanomaterials for Conformance Control 

      Najafiazar, Bahador; Wessel-Berg, Dag; Bergmo, Per Eirik Strand; Simon, Christian; Yang, Juan; Torsæter, Ole; Holt, Torleif (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)
      Deep placement of gel in waterflooded hydrocarbon reservoirs may block channels with high water flow and may divert the water into other parts of the reservoir, resulting in higher oil production. In order to get the gel ...
