a key parameter for the application of polymer gels in water shut off treatment is the adsorption of polymer gel onto the rock surface. so, the adsorption properties of a nanocomposite hydrogel were discussed in this research by crosslinking of sulfonated polyacrylamide/sodium montmorillonite aqueous solutions with chromium triacetate. the x-ray diffraction patterns indicated that exfoliated ty...

In this research attempts were made to estimate the in-situ stresses acting on a hydrocarbon reservoir based on routine activities of acid injection in oil reservoir. It was found that the relation between the re-opening pressure of fracture and principal in-situ stresses can be estimated using rock mechanics equations for the circular underground cavities. An appropriate relation between the m...

the electrical resistivity of hydrocarbon reservoir rocks is an important parameters in the calculation of water and oil saturation percent in both carbonate and sandstone reservoir rocks.in this regard, most studies have concentrated on the confining  pressure on cementation factor and electrical resistivity in sandstone reservoir rocks. in this study the effect of confining pressure on cement...

The augmentation index predicts cardiovascular mortality and is usually explained as a distally reflected wave adding to the forward wave generated by systole. We propose that the capacitative properties of the aorta (the arterial reservoir) also contribute significantly to the augmentation index and have calculated the contribution of the arterial reservoir, independently of wave reflection, a...

this study aimed to construct the hydrate three-phase equilibrium curves for two typical iranian gas reservoir samples using a high-pressure visual cell. to do so, complete analysis of the reservoir fluids was obtained by different techniques of composition analysis i.e. gas chromatography (gc) and detailed hydrocarbon analysis (dha). using high-pressure visual cell the hydrate phase equilibriu...

The response of anunderexpanded jet to adepletingfinite reservoir is examinedwith experiments and simulations. An open-ended shock-tube facility with a variable reservoir length is used to obtain images of nitrogenand heliumjet structures at successive instances during the blowdown from initial pressure ratios of up to 250. The reservoir and ambient pressures are simultaneously measured to obta...

Cap rocks are dams which can prevent the upward movement of hydrocarbons. They have disparities and weaknesses including discontinuities, crushed areas, and faults. Gas injection is an effective mechanism for oil recovery and pore pressure. With increasing pore pressure, normal stress is reduced, and the integrity of impermeable boundaries (cap rock, fault, etc.) becomes instable. A successful ...

the conventional phase behavior study of petroleum reservoir fluids are valid when the reservoir temperature is far enough from the critical condition in which the material balance equation can be applied correctly. when the temperature of the reservoir is in the vicinity of the critical temperature the classical methods can’t determine the phase behavior of the mixture due to rapid phase chang...
