... saturations averaged 55.8%. The oil was displaced initially with a waterflood for 3-5 pore volumes. The waterflood, on average, recovered 60.7% of original oil in place (OOIP). Oil cut was consistently zero at the conclusion of the waterflood suggesting the cores were at or near residual oil saturation...

... fingering/channeling. Koval (1963) found a very simple approach which captures the essence of the combination of fingering and channeling for miscible systems, accounting for both the impacts of mobility ratio and heterogeneity. The fractional flow for solvent, F s is related to the solvent saturation S...

..., gas composition, water saturation, oil saturation, and rock permeability. Surfactant adsorption on the rock and its partition in the oil phase was also measured. These results were used to estimate parameters to be entered into foam models available in commercial reservoir simulators. Other fields...

... hydrogen can be recovered. Full reversibility means that all the injectant will be recovered. Then, we examine, case by case, how shock formation, trapping hysteresis and gravity impact flow reversibility. Finally, we study how the shape of fractional flow curve and residual saturation hysteresis curve...

... saturation in a much shorter injection period. The experimental results demonstrate that foam is triggered more rapidly at low fg. Moreover, the retardation of foam propagation at transient states is further reduced by injecting a high surfactant concentration and a low fg in the initial stage...

... ), we presented experimental results pertaining to the efficacy of using a 1% solution of 3-pentanone (a mutual solvent) and separately a 1% non-ionic surfactant solution injected in four unfractured Permian Basin carbonate cores saturated with a low-salinity brine. The experiments indicated that we...

Pressure drop analysis during flowback and hydrocarbon production indicates rapid normalization of pressure drop in heterogeneous unconventional formations, contrasting with prolonged normalization in homogeneous formations. These findings underscore...
