Influence of Nanoemulsion Droplet Size of Removing Water Blocking Damage in Tight Gas Reservoir

Kinetics of the Change in Droplet Size during Nanoemulsion Formation.

The evolution of droplet size during nanoemulsion formation is critical for the rational design of nanoemulsions in areas such as drug delivery and materials synthesis. In this article, we discuss the relative importance of various time scales involved in nanoemulsion formation and propose a population balance model for droplet breakup that takes into account the droplet's internal viscosity. T...

Influence of Salinity, Surfactants and Power of Ultrasonic Homogenizer on Droplet Size Distribution of Crude Oil/Water Emulsions

Toward a Thorough Approach to Predicting Klinkenberg Permeability in a Tight Gas Reservoir: A Comparative Study

Klinkenberg permeability is an important parameter in tight gas reservoirs. There are conventional methods for determining it, but these methods depend on core permeability. Cores are few in number, but well logs are usually accessible for all wells and provide continuous information. In this regard, regression methods have been used to achieve reliable relations between log readings and Klinke...

Pseudo Steady State Gas Flow in Tight Reservoir under Dual Mechanism Flow

Gas reservoirs with low permeability (k<0.1 mD) are among the unconventional reservoirs and are commonly termed as "Tight Gas Reservoirs". In conventional gas reservoirs that have high permeability, the flow of gas is basically controlled by the reservoir permeability and it is calculated using the Darcy equation. In these reservoirs, gas flow due to gas diffusion is ignored compared to Dar...

The measurement of droplet size distribution of water-oil emulsion through NMR method

The effects of water/oil volume ratio, type and concentration of demulsifier, water salinity and mixing speed on the average water droplets size in water-oil emulsion are evaluated at different times through NMR measurements.The type and concentration of demulsifier have the greatest effects on the average droplet size with 38% and 31.5%, respectively. The water/oil volume ratio, water salinity...
