Core wettability reproduction: A new solvent cleaning and core restoration strategy for chalk cores
Piñerez Torrijos, Iván Darío; Puntervold, Tina; Strand, Skule; Hopkins, Paul Andrew; Aslanidis, PANAGIOTIS; Yang, Hae Sol; Kinn, Magnus Sundby (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Laboratory core restoration procedures include different core cleaning solvents, establishment of initial water saturation (Swi) by diverse techniques and processes of crude oil exposure that influence the final core wetting ... -
Evaluation of Surface-Active Ionic Liquids in Smart Water for Enhanced Oil Recovery in Carbonate Rocks
Tafur, Nestor; Mamonov, Aleksandr; Khan, Md Ashraful Islam; Soto, Ana; Puntervold, Tina; Strand, Skule (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Ionic modification of injected brines (Smart Water EOR) has previously demonstrated great potential for wettability alteration in carbonates from initially mixed-wet toward more water-wet conditions. However, the efficiency ... -
Influence of Sandstone Mineralogy on the Adsorption of Polar Crude Oil Components and Its Effect on Wettability
Mamonov, Aleksandr; Aslanidis, PANAGIOTIS; Fazilani, Novia; Puntervold, Tina; Strand, Skule (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)The crude oil–brine–rock (COBR) system is a combination of contacting phases where polar organic molecules in crude oil, inorganic ions from the brine phase, and charged mineral surfaces participate in complex interactions. ... -
Investigation of a new application for cellulose nanocrystals: a study of the enhanced oil recovery potential by use of a green additive
Molnes, Silje; Mamonov, Aleksandr; Paso, Kristofer Gunnar; Strand, Skule; Syverud, Kristin (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 ... -
Polysulphate: A New Enhanced Oil Recovery Additive to Maximize the Oil Recovery From Carbonate Reservoirs at High Temperature
Khan, Md Ashraful Islam; Piñerez Torrijos, Iván Darío; Aldeen, Saja H.; Puntervold, Tina; Strand, Skule (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Seawater (SW) injection is an enhanced oil recovery (EOR) success in the North Sea carbonate reservoirs due to wettability alteration toward a more water-wet state. This process is triggered by the difference in composition ...
