... sequences. Laboratory tests were conducted by reproducing reservoir conditions inside an autoclave set-up. The impact of various parameters, such as water composition (salinity), mineralogy of the reservoir (especially the clay content), CO 2 purity (H 2 S, CO, H 2 and CH 4 impurities) have been studied...

... by an excitation provided by an electric field. In this sense, polar characteristics of water molecules allow quantification of volume of water present in the reservoir, independently of salinity. Owing to the shallow depths of investigation, dielectric tools are useful in evaluating residual oil in high...

... Abstract Several fields in Colombia are in the maturity phase. While the efforts are mainly focused on workflows and technology incorporation for either increasing hydrocarbon production and/or minimizing water cut, the combination of variable salinities due to production/waterflood...

... reservoir conditions of high temperature, high salinity, and low permeability. However, research is advancing to expand the applicability of this technique to carbonate reservoirs in a cost effective manner. In this paper, we present a comprehensive review on polymer flooding for carbonates under harsh...

... The objective of this research was to study the formation of water-in-oil microdispersions due to crude oil-brine interactions as a novel mechanism that improves oil recovery with low salinity waterflooding in carbonate formations. This novel interpretation was studied by intergrating...

The experimental setup was composed of: positive displacement pump (DBR System), fluid injection cylinder, sample...

... systems, for several water chemistries. These dynamic interface properties have been found to contribute to EOR mechanisms in low-salinity waterflooding. Three different carbonate outcrop samples were used to characterize single-phase rock-fluid interactions in coreflooding experiments. Effluent samples...
