... alteration, changes in the viscosity, changes in the interfacial tension and control of small particle migration, make nanofluid injection an effective method. In this study, the injection of a combination of smart water and silica nanoparticles is investigated for EOR. Different characterization...

... year. One of them is the use of nanoparticles as EOR technology. Since nanoparticles size is lesser than the average pore throat, it can flow through inaccessible pores. Thus, nanoparticles cover more unswept zones due to size and high surface-to-volume ratio. This helps to cover a large surface...
