Foam systems have emerged as a valuable tool in enhanced oil recovery (EOR), providing an effective means to improve sweep efficiency and mitigate gas channeling in heterogeneous reservoirs. By ...

The continuous demand for unconventional oil, such as heavy oil as an alternative energy supply, justifies the global oil reserves of as high as 1734 billion barrels in 2019. However, the drawback of ...

Since 2003 prompt and long-term oil prices have been constantly climbing to levels ($70-90/bbl) that have caught many people by surprise. The erosion of large spare capacity in the oil chain and the ...

A black powder of spherical carbon nanoparticles with specific properties can be synthesized using the hydrothermal method. Surface modifications can be achieved by chemically bonding organic ...

Enhanced oil recovery (EOR) projects that use a carbon dioxide injectant can acquire CO 2 using various processes that recover CO 2 from industrial sources and produced gas streams. Recovery of CO 2 ...
