... for designing the optimal injection brine composition for an offshore carbonate reservoir. The crude oil from this reservoir has a very low total acid number (0.01 mg KOH/g), leading to the expectation that injecting diluted seawater would not be an effective enhanced oil recovery (EOR) fluid. To address...
