Water-based enhanced oil recovery (EOR) by “Smart Water”: optimal ionic composition for EOR in carbonates
(Journal article; Peer reviewed; Doctoral thesis, 2011)The composition of the injecting brine has a profound effect on the efficiency of water-based enhanced oil recovery (EOR) methods. Recently, we observed that not only is the concentration of the active ions Ca2+, Mg2+, ... -
Weak solutions for a gas liquid model relevant for describing gas-kick in oil wells
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2011)The purpose of this paper is to establish a local in time existence result for a compressible gas-liquid model. The model is a drift-flux model which is composed of two continuity equations and one mixture momentum equation ... -
Wettability alteration in carbonates: the effect of water-soluble carboxylic acids in crude oil
(Journal article; Peer reviewed; Doctoral thesis, 2010)Acidic components in crude oil influence the wetting condition through their effect on electrostatic interactions with the mineral surfaces. In this paper, we have extracted water-soluble acids from a crude oil with a high ...
