Adsorption of basic crude oil components onto carbonate chalk surfaces – effect on initial wettability.
Jakobsen, Anna Bogunovic (Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IEP/2018;, Master thesis, 2018-06-14)The initial wetting of carbonate reservoirs is of great importance to the overall oil recovery and smart water processes. Crude oil is a complex mixture of organic components, and the polar components present in it can ... -
Adsorption of Crude Oil Components onto Carbonate and Sandstone Outcrop Rocks and Its Effect on Wettability
Puntervold, Tina; Mamonov, Aleksandr; Piñerez Torrijos, Iván Darío; Strand, Skule (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021-03)The processes of establishing and altering reservoir wettability are still subjects of discussion due to the complexity of the underlying crude oil–brine–rock interactions. This study was aimed at investigating the ... -
Adsorption of Polar Oil Components onto Chalk: Impact of Silica content on Initial Wetting
Klewiah, Isaac (Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IEP/2018;, Master thesis, 2018-07-30)The wetting state of reservoir rocks, particularly naturally fractured chalk, is fundamental in the efficient application of advanced oil recovery methods by injection of water. In the subsurface crude oil/brine/rock system, ... -
Carbonated water injection in chalk for enhanced oil recovery at high temperature
Kleiberg, Sander Haaland (Master thesis, 2022)The increased demand of hydrocarbons in combination with the climate change represent a current challenge for a petroleum industry that aims to increase the production and reduce its emissions. Reaching the Paris agreements ... -
Low-temperature carbonated water injection for enhanced oil recovery in chalk
Kvitvær, Gustav (Master thesis, 2023)The oil industry is still an essential contributor to meeting the continuously increasing global energy demands. As the world looks towards reaching carbon neutrality, new approaches and innovative ideas have never been ... -
Optimizing carbonate core restoration procedures - Effect of crude oil saturation and mild cleaning
Kapstad, Simen (Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IEP/2018;, Master thesis, 2018-06-15)Wettability has a big impact on how much we can recover by water flooding a reservoir, and there is a commercial potential for improvement done through alteration of the wettability. Studies have been conducted and shown ... -
pH Development Analysis of Alkaline and Low Salinity Water Flooding in sandstone cores
Khan, Md Ashraful Islam (Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IEP/2018;, Master thesis, 2018-06)Low salinity (LS) water flooding has been in the center of interest for conventional oil recovery in sandstone reservoir for more than two decades because of its low cost and potential for increased oil recovery. Though ... -
