... Abstract Carbonate reservoirs hold significant reserves of heavy crude oil that can be recovered by non-thermal processes. Chemical, gas, water, and solvent injections are the main methods for carbonate heavy oil recovery. Chemical enhanced oil recovery (EOR) from oil-wet carbonate reservoirs...

... Abstract With the depletion of light oil, heavy oil is becoming one of the most promising resources to meet future energy consumption. It is estimated that total resources of heavy oil are 3396 billion barrels worldwide. Water flooding can only achieve less than 20% of heavy oil recovery...

... for increased heavy oil recovery has not been widely reported before and hence the ability of foam formation in the presence of heavy oil and its potential to increase heavy oil recovery is by and large untested. In this paper, we present the results of a series of visualization experiments carried out in high...
