Abstract This paper reports a laboratory study of the gas breakthrough pressure for different gas/liquid systems in Mississippian‐age Midale Evaporite. low‐permeability rock formation is seal Weyburn Field southeastern Saskatchewan, Canada, where CO 2 being injected into an oil reservoir enhanced recovery and storage. A technique experimentally determining at conditions presented. Breakthrough pressures N , CH 4 were measured with selected seal‐rock samples. The maximum over 30 MPa...
A total of 33 sandpack flood tests were carried out to investigate the effects interfacial tension (IFT) and water-phase viscosity on enhanced heavy oil recovery by chemical flooding. The amount recovered alkaline-only flooding increased sharply with NaOH concentration in range 0.3−0.5 wt %. only varied slightly changing alkaline outside range. coexistence surfactant reduced IFT between aqueous phase an ultra-low level. However, alkaline/surfactant increasing up a threshold value 0.5 Beyond...
Appropriate techniques have to be developed for improving heavy oil recovery from thin reservoirs in western Canada, where thermal methods suffer heat loss overburden/underburden and vapor extraction (VAPEX) is not effective because of the lack efficient gravity drainage. Considering this, a hydrocarbon gas injection process huff-n-puff mode, i.e., traditional hydrocarbon-based cyclic solvent (CSP), has been tested evaluate its applicability such reservoirs. In first part this study,...
Multi-fractured horizontal well (MFHW) is extensively applied to develop the shale gas reservoirs. After massive fracturing, complex fracture network will exist around wellbore. To model flow behavior more rigorously, fractures within should be represented explicitly rather than idealized as dual-porosity media Thus, a conceptual of discrete for MFHW first constructed by using unstructured perpendicular bisection (PEBI) grid. Then, mathematical considering stress sensitivity reservoir...
From laboratory and field test results, it is now largely agreed that reducing the overall salinity, especially concentration of divalent ions injected water, can markedly improve oil recovery. However, as a result complexity crude oil–brine–rock (COBR) system, there no clear explanation why cations (Ca2+) are major significance in low-salinity water effect (LSWE). In present paper, spontaneous imbibition, ζ-potential measurements, static adsorption/desorption benzoic acid (BA) onto crushed...
Shale oil resources have proven to be quickly producible in large quantities and recently revolutionized the gas industry. The content a shale formation includes free contained pores trapped organic material called kerogen. latter can represent significant portion of total yet production currently targets only rather than reservoirs also substantial capacity store CO2 by dissolving it In this paper, recent progress research CO2-kerogen interaction its applications enhanced recovery carbon...
Densities and solubilities for binary systems of carbon dioxide + water Weyburn-formation brine were measured at a temperature 59 °C pressures up to 29 MPa. Density values obtained both the saturated unsaturated aqueous solutions different pressures. A correlation in literature was used predict solubility phase, results compared with data. The density correlated as function concentration pressure. simple method determining recommended.
