Microbial Enhanced Oil Recovery, Wettability Alteration and Interfacial Tension Reduction by an Efficient Bacterial Consortium, ERCPPI-2
In the present study, the potential of a bacterial consortium of Enterobacter cloacae and Pseudomonas sp. (ERCPPI-2) for microbial enhanced oil recovery was investigated. Various mechanisms of enhanced oil recovery (EOR) as a result of using ERCPPI-2 and its metabolic products were studied in detail. The obtained results showed that under simulated reservoir ...
متن کاملOptimized polymer enhanced foam flooding for ordinary heavy oil reservoir after cross-linked polymer flooding
A successful cross-linked polymer flooding has been implemented in JD reservoir, an ordinary heavy oil reservoir with high permeability zones. For all that, there are still significant volumes of continuous oil remaining in place, which can not be easily extracted due to stronger vertical heterogeneity. Considering selective plugging feature, polymer enhanced foam (PEF) flooding was taken as fo...
متن کاملAn optimal viscosity profile in enhanced oil recovery by polymer flooding
Forced displacement of oil by polymer flooding in oil reservoir is one of the effective methods of enhanced (tertiary) oil recovery. A classical model of this process within Hele-Shaw approximation involves three-layer fluid in a Hele-Shaw cell having a variable viscosity fluid in the intermediate layer between oil and water. The goal here is to find an optimal viscosity profile of the intermed...
متن کاملMicrobial Enhanced Oil Recovery Using Biosurfactant Produced by Alcaligenes faecalis
A bacterial strain (designated as Alcaligenes sp. MS-103) isolated from oil sample of the Aghajari oilfield in the south of Iran, was able to produce an effective extracellular lipopolysaccharide biosurfactant (1.2±0.05 g/l) on molasses as a sole carbon source. The highest surface tension reduction to level 20 mN/m was achieved by biosurfactant produced by cells grown on molasses under optimum ...
متن کاملNumerical Simulation of Chemical Enhanced Oil Recovery Processes
In this paper we develop a new mathematical formulation for chemical compositional reservoir simulation, and provide a comparison of its results on alkaline-surfactant-polymer flooding with those of UTCHEM simulator. Our research has found that the existing chemical compositional model estimates the adsorption effect on the transport of a component reasonably well but it does not satisfy the pr...
