Adsorption of basic crude oil components onto carbonate chalk surfaces – effect on initial wettability.
(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 silica nanoparticles in chalk and sandstone and it effect of fluid/rock interactions.
(Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IEP/2018;, Master thesis, 2018-06-15)This study addresses the adsorption of Silica nanoparticles (NPs) and its effect on fluid/rock interactions in chalk and sandstone reservoirs. The first part of this thesis addresses the kinetic adsorption behaviour of ... -
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 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 ... -
Optimizing carbonate core restoration procedures - Effect of crude oil saturation and mild cleaning
(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 ... -
Water flooding of Eldfisk reservoir cores
(Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IEP/2019;, Master thesis, 2019-06)Enhanced Oil Recovery (EOR) and the effect of the aqueous chemistry on the mechanical strength of chalk have been extensively studied over the years. This is simply because the stability of the reservoir system is affected ...
