Continental-shelf freshwater water resources and improved oil recovery by low-salinity waterflooding
Publikováno v:
AAPG Bulletin. 101:1-18
This study assesses the feasibility of utilizing offshore freshwater for improved oil recovery in passive-margin marine environments. Low-salinity water flooding (5 km3 (1.89x1011 barrels) of fresh (3 of fresh–brackish water (9 to 8.7x1010 barrels/

Spontaneous imbibition experiments are usually carried out on All Faces Open or One End Open cores and this severely limits the information that can be obtained because imbibition can be approximately described with a square root of time function, wh

Oil-spills due to release of crude oil from tankers, offshore platforms, drilling rigs, and wells, and of other products such as diesel and bunker fuel, if uncontrolled, may have serious and sometimes long term environmental impact. This paper presen

Under certain boundary conditions during spontaneous brine imbibition into oil-saturated porous rocks, it is possible for co- and counter-current flow to occur simultaneously. These circumstances are formalized into a special Two-Ends-Open (TEO) boun

Spontaneous imbibition controls many processes of practical importance. The subject is undergoing rapid growth in terms of the number of publications. This paper is a selective review of the literature which concentrates on the last ten years or so b

A fundamental problem in interpretation of the capillary properties of porous media is the effect of the interaction of wetting properties and pore geometry on interface curvature. Contact angles provide a fundamental measure of wetting. However, cir

Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) was used to monitor the displacement of refined oil by spontaneous imbibition of brine into fully oil-saturated cylindrical cores with either one end open (OEO) or two ends open (TEO) to flow. The rocks were outcrop W

Use of aqueous glycerol solutions provides a convenient approach for investigation of a variety of aspects of two phase flow phenomena in porous media concerned with viscosity. These include the scaling of spontaneous imbibition and the forced displa
