... ISC displacements and show fingering behavior in different conditions. We have found matrix permeability reduction due to coke deposition has minimal impact on frontal stability. The simulation results are successfully validated with the analytical work for conditions where the ISC process is stable...

... their mobilization towards the production well. Migrated fine particles may plug the pore spaces around the well and reduce wellbore productivity. This paper aims to investigate the impact of water salinity on fines migration and permeability reduction. A large-scale pre-packed Sand Retention Tests (SRT) facility...

... still needs to be done to have a better grasp of the asphaltene deposition. In this study, we examine an integrated approach to evaluate asphaletene deposition in both the reservoir and wellbore as a function of fluid velocity. We discuss the effect of permeability reduction as a function of combined...

... processes. Crucial properties gel such as in-situ rheology and swelling ratio in addition to oil recoveries were investigated. The water and oil permeability reduction factors were measured and modeled as a function of gel strength, rock permeability, and flow rate. The PPG transport models were...

Overall, the field tests demonstrated that the Sespe can be steam stimulated without damage. formation damage cyclic steam stimulation flow rate reservoir pressure permeability reduction stimulation reduction...

... technique for the correction and control of steam override and channeling are presented. Coreflood experiments were performed to demonstrate the effectiveness of emulsion blocking at temperatures ranging from ambient to 194°C. The permeability reduction of various types of cores using externally produced...

... of a suspension of micron-sized particles. The percentage of permeability reduction obtained in this way was found to be dependent solely on the initial core permeability and the quantity of suspension used. The suspended particles are capable of high percentage permeability reduction even in very permeable...
