THERMO ACID IMPULSING METHOD FOR OIL RECOVERY INCREASING

Increasing CO2 Storage in Oil Recovery

Carbon dioxide (CO2) injection has been used as a commercial process for enhanced oil recovery (EOR) since the 1970’s. Because the cost of oil recovered is closely linked to the purchase cost of the CO2 injected, considerable reservoir engineering design effort has gone into reducing the total amount of CO2 required to recover each barrel of oil. If, on the other hand, the objective of the CO2 ...

A New Discovery about Inflow Control Devices in Controlling Water and Increasing Oil Recovery

Inflow control devices (ICD), which prevent water breakthrough by controlling the inflow profile of a well, have been used successfully in many oilfields. This paper will introduce a new discovery and an unsuccessful example. Moreover, this paper investigates meticulously and thoroughly to find the application conditions of the new discovery. Based on permeability rush coefficient and permeabil...

Application of Nanoparticles for Chemical Enhanced Oil Recovery

In this paper, the potentials of using particles, especially nanoparticles, in enhanced oil recovery is investigated. The effect of different nanoparticles on wettability alteration, which is an important method to increase oil recovery from oil-wet reservoirs, is reviewed. The effect of different kinds of particles, namely solid inorganic particles, hydrophilic or hydrophobic nanoparticles, an...

Methods for Increasing Renewable Oil Productions

Strategy Formulation for Service Failure Recovery, Using Mixed Research Method

The purpose of this study is to explain the strategies affecting the failure recovery in significant services which researches had previously disregarded. Since more than half of the total global wealth comes from the service sector, this study gains importance. Service failures and failed recoveries are among the leading causes of customer switching behavior from service organizations. The exi...
