The Effect of Different Drilling Fluids on Mechanical Friction
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2017)A very important aspect in highly inclined wellbores is the mechanical friction. For extended reach drilling (ERD) and through tubing extended reach drilling (TTERD) this can be a limiting factor. Friction caused by the ... -
Effect of Iron Oxide Nanoparticles on the Properties of Water-Based Drilling Fluids
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020-12)In recent years, several studies have indicated the impact of nanoparticles (NPs) on various properties (such as viscosity and fluid loss) of conventional drilling fluids. Our previous study with commercial iron oxide NPs ... -
The Effect of Lost Circulation Material on Herschel-Bulkley Parameters
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)To hinder loss of drilling fluids into downhole formations while drilling geothermal, CO2 injection or petroleum wells, Lost Circulation Material (LCM) is added to the drilling fluids. These materials consist of many ... -
Effect of Organic Retarders on Fluid-State and Strength Development of Rock-Based Geopolymer
(Chapter, 2023)Granite waste is rich in aluminum and silicate has the potential of turning to geopolymer material after mixing with an alkali solution. One of the challenges in developing a geopolymer is to select a suitable retarder to ... -
The effect of PVA microfiber reinforcement on the mechanical and rheological behavior of class G oil well cement pastes
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)During the life cycle of an oil well, the annular cement sheath will be exposed to load combinations that can result in failure. To enhance the structural integrity and ductility of the cement paste, and to improve the ... -
Effect of salinity on silica nanoparticle adsorption kinetics and mechanisms for fluid/rock interaction with calcite
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019-02)This study addresses the kinetics of silica nanoparticle adsorption on calcite from a solution at three salinities: deionized water (DIW), synthetic seawater (SSW), and low salinity water (LSW). The nanoparticle adsorption ... -
Effect of Salts on Interfacial Tension and CO2 Mass Transfer in Carbonated Water Injection
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019-02)Carbonated water injection (CWI) is a promising enhanced oil recovery (EOR) and CO2 sequestration method, which overcomes the problems associated with CO2 EOR. CO2 mass transfer and interfacial tension (IFT) are important ... -
Effect of Silica nanoparticles on fluid/rock interactions during low salinity water flooding of chalk reservoirs
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018-07)Abstract: The main objective of this work is to address the adsorption of Silica nanoparticles (NPs) dispersed in different brines on chalk surfaces and their effect on fluid/rock interaction. Isothermal static and dynamic ... -
The effect of temperature on CO2 injectivity in sandstone reservoirs
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Carbon Capture, Utilization and Storage (CCUS) is a pragmatic technology that could reduce anthropogenic CO2 and halt climate change. CO2 injectivity is affected by several physicochemical interactions around the injection ... -
