Effects of ions on oil recovery by low salinity water flooding on chalk reservoir
(Master thesis, 2016-06-15)Low salinity water flooding has shown its potential for incremental oil recovery. It has been widely researched Oil Recovery method. However, the mechanism of the method has not fully understood. This is mainly due to ... -
Emulsions For Enhanced Oil Recovery EOR
(Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IPT/2017;, Master thesis, 2017-06)______Oil recovery projects have become a valuable source in oil industry in the recent years due to market challenges and economic stability. This is a typical practice that have been applied in oil and gas reservoirs to ... -
Field-scale simulation modeling of disproportional permeability reduction impact on oil recovery
(Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IPT/2015;, Master thesis, 2015-06-15)Excessive water production in hydrocarbon exploration is a worldwide problem. The water produced is considered to be the largest waste stream by volume in during hydrocarbon production. Gelant/polymers have been known to ... -
Investigated Miscible CO2 Flooding for Enhancing Oil Recovery in Wettability Altered Chalk and Sandstone Rocks
(PhD thesis UiS;162, Doctoral thesis, 2012-05-29)The thesis addresses oil recovery by miscible CO2 flooding from modified sandstone and chalk rocks. Calcite mineral surface is modified with stearic acid (SA) and asphaltene, and the silicate mineral surfaces are modified ... -
Mechanism of primary and secondary oil flooding for recovery from chalk by low
(Master thesis, 2014-06-16)This research work is performed with the intention to bring the contribution in the ongoing discussion of implementing the low salinity brines as the injection fluid in carbonate reservoirs. The work contains theoretical ...
