The objective of this study is to obtain quantitative evidence of pore-scale immiscible fluid distribution in oil-wet and water-wet porous media using X-ray computed microtomography. Temporal and spatial saturation profiles, as well as surface and interfacial areas, are thoroughly analyzed through cycles of drainage and imbibition using samples with different wetting characteristics but similar...

Recycle-gas injection is a promising recovery process to produce oil and gas. The method uses continues injection of the produced gas at economical rates to keep the reservoirs energy up and using viscous force as the driving force. There are numerous studies done on recycle-gas injection in conventional reservoirs, however, there are some other factors such as location of wells and completion ...

Immiscible blends of elastomers present high technological interest, and the selection vulcanization system is important for optimization properties different technical applications. In particular, effect curing agents on distribution cross-links in each phase key full comprehension structure–property relationships. Aiming at understanding phase-specific network structure rubber blends, this wo...
