A simplified method for experimentally quantifying crude oil swelling during immiscible carbon dioxide injection

A fast and simple method for modeling of oil swelling in Co2 injection

In this paper, the role of molecular diffusion in mobilization of waterflood residual oil is examined. A moving mesh method is applied to solve the moving interface problem of residual oil blobs swelling by Co2 diffusion through a blocking water phase. The results of this modeling are compared with experimental results of a 2D glass micromodel experiment. Although, the solution method is applie...

simulation and experimental studies for prediction mineral scale formation in oil field during mixing of injection and formation water

abstract: mineral scaling in oil and gas production equipment is one of the most important problem that occurs while water injection and it has been recognized to be a major operational problem. the incompatibility between injected and formation waters may result in inorganic scale precipitation in the equipment and reservoir and then reduction of oil production rate and water injection rate. ...

Use of Artificial Neural Networks for Predicting Crude Oil Effect on Carbon Dioxide Corrosion of Carbon Steels

The role of crude oil on carbon dioxide (CO2) corrosion has gained special attention in the last few years because of its signifi cance when predicting corrosion rates. However, the complexity and variability of crude oils makes it hard to model its effects, which can infl uence not only wettability properties but also the corrosiveness of the associated brine. This study evaluates the usefulne...
