Paper presented at the SPE Annual Technical Conference and Exhibition, October 16–18, 2023
Paper Number: SPE-215043-MS
...Experimental Procedure Instruments Wax deposition is a severe global problem during crude oil production and transportation. Paraffins are the main components that contribute to the formation of wax deposits (García 2000; Junyi et al. 2018 ; Ariza-León et al 2014 ; Hosseinipour et al...

..., current CCUS-EOR technologies usually face serious gas channeling which finally result in the poor performance on both EOR and CCUS. This study introduced CO 2 electrochemical conversion into CCUS-EOR, which successively combines CO 2 electrochemical reduction and crude oil electrocatalytic cracking...

... Abstract This study aims to compare the roles of rock and crude oil in improving recovery by low salinity water injection (LSWI) and, particularly, to explore the significance of micro-dispersion formation in LSWI performance. Core samples and crude oil were taken from two carbonate reservoirs...

... in hydrogen generation from crude oils in a reactor. A maximum of 63% ultimate hydrogen content is obtained in the generated gas mixtures, while the original CO 2 content in all experiments is negligible (<1%). Catalysts can promote hydrogen generation by accelerating rate and locally enhancing microwave...

... does not always increment oil recovery. It is a specific combination of properties of an asphaltenic crude oil, chemically equilibrated brine, and rock surface that may explain the success or failure of LSW. In this work, we introduce a novel experimental approach to study asphaltene-like chemical...

.... Conventional CO 2 foam (without NCF) was used as the reference throughout this work. The results indicated that the addition of NCF into CO 2 foam considerably retarded the liquid drainage and bubble coalescence, which consequently stabilized the CO 2 foam especially in the presence of crude oil. NCF-st-CO...
