Analytical solutions for forced and spontaneous imbibition accounting for viscous coupling
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019-11-22)Fluid-fluid momentum transfer can cause higher flow resistance when fluids flow in opposite directions as compared to the same direction. Conventional modelling of flow in porous media using simple, saturation dependent relative ... -
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 ... -
Effects of polymer adsorption on the effective viscosity in microchannel flows: phenomenological slip layer model from molecular simulations
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018-10)Molecular simulations (Dissipative Particle Dynamics - DPD) were used to quantify the effect of polymer adsorption on the effective shear viscosity of a semi-dilute polymer solution in microchannel Poseuille flow. It is ... -
Investigation of a new application for cellulose nanocrystals: a study of the enhanced oil recovery potential by use of a green additive
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018-02)Cellulose nanocrystals (CNC) were investigated for use in a potential new application, enhanced oil recovery. Core flooding experiments were performed on outcrop sandstone cores using CNC particles dispersed in low salinity ... -
Review and investigations on geothermal energy extraction from abandoned petroleum wells
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018-08)Geothermal energy is a sustainable and renewable energy source, which can be used in electricity production, space heating/cooling, and other industrial applications. In the recent years, it has been gathering more and ... -
Review of Experimental Sorption Studies of CO2 and CH4 in Shales
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019-10)In recent years CO2 injection in shale has been investigated with aim to enhance shale gas recovery (ESGR) and permanently sequester CO2. This paper reviews the state of research on CH4 and CO2 sorption in shale. We present ... -
Stability assessment of PITT tracer candidate compounds: the case of benzyl alcohols
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018-04)The selection of compounds used as inter-well tracers has traditionally been done taking into consideration the goal of the test and the ease in analyzing the chemicals used. This often led to improper selection of the ...
