Study on the Impact of Polymer Retention in Porous Media on Further Surfactant-Polymer Flood
Polymer flood gains expansive popularity as a promising EOR method in various oilfields worldwide. However, there are still substantial amount of resources underground after polymer application. To further enhance oil recovery, secondary chemicals are sometimes utilized to sweep the remaining hydrocarbons to maintain the consistent development of oilfields. In this paper, a series of experiment...
متن کاملA 2.5-D glass micromodel for investigation of multi-phase flow in porous media.
We developed a novel method for fabrication of glass micromodels with varying depth (2.5-D) with no additional complexity over the 2-D micromodels' fabrication. Compared to a 2-D micromodel, the 2.5-D micromodel can better represent the 3-D features of multi-phase flow in real porous media, as demonstrated in this paper with three different examples. Physically realistic capillary snap-off and ...
متن کاملFoaming and foam stability for mixed polymer-surfactant solutions: effects of surfactant type and polymer charge.
Solutions of surfactant-polymer mixtures often exhibit different foaming properties, compared to the solutions of the individual components, due to the strong tendency for formation of polymer-surfactant complexes in the bulk and on the surface of the mixed solutions. A generally shared view in the literature is that electrostatic interactions govern the formation of these complexes, for exampl...
متن کاملAsymptotic solutions of compaction in porous media
Compaction in reactive porous media is modelled as a reaction-diffusion process with a moving boundary. Asymptotic analysis is used to find solutions for the coupled nonlinear compaction equations, and a traveling wave solution is obtained above the reaction zone.
متن کاملLattice Gas Automata Simulation of Adsorption Process of Polymer in Porous Media
Lattice gas automata (LGA) model is developed to simulate polymer adsorption process by adding some collision rules. The simulation result of the model is matched with batch experiment and compared with accepted isothermal adsorption equations. They show that the model is viable to perform simulation of the polymer adsorption process. The LGA model is then applied for simulating continuous poly...
