In addition, two-dimensional gas chromatography with its high-resolution compositional evaluation especially within a geochemical context can corroborate conclusions from asphaltene...

... formation and depends on 1) the quality of the live crude oil solvent for asphaltenes and 2) the concentration of asphaltenes. Elevated quantities of solution gas of a reservoir crude oil significantly reduce the solvency of asphaltenes in crude oil. For low concentrations and/or good solvency, asphaltenes...

... Abstract Depressurization of a virgin or waterflooded oil reservoir results in the appearance of a solution gas saturation. Above a saturation threshold, this gas becomes mobile and can be produced. Knowledge of the critical gas saturation (S gc ) and the subsequent relative permeabilities (K r...

... Abstract A number of heavy oil reservoirs under solution gas drive show anomalously good primary performance. Foamy oil behaviour is believed to be one of the reasons. Currently, numerical simulation of primary depletion in foamy oil reservoirs is based primarily on empirical adjustments...

... at the start of the injection. This result confirms the observed field behavior. The main mechanism responsible for the increase of production due to the injection of gas is solution gas-drive. This effect is more important at the higher pressures normally present during the first stimulation cycles. Other...
