Summary In this study, the effects of viscosity-reducer (VR) concentration, salinity, water/oil ratio (WOR), and temperature on performance emulsions are examined basis selected VR. Different VR-injection scenarios, including single-VR injection coinjection steam VR, conducted after steamflooding by use single-sandpack models. The results show that high VR WOR, low salinity beneficial to form stable oil/water emulsions. oil recoveries for bitumen heavy approximately 31 52%, respectively....
Through the sufficient analysis of heat transfer mechanisms between multi-thermal fluid and formation, flow models in three different horizontal wellbores (single-string wellbore, concentric dual-string parallel wellbore) were developed here. It sufficiently considered influences wellbore temperature pressure on physical properties fluid. Then, using node method, these solved, thus, a parametric sensitivity process was carried out. Thereafter, validated from test data well Junggar basin.
9009 Background: International Medical Graduates (IMGs) are a vital component of the US oncology workforce, representing nearly half practicing medical oncologists. However, systemic barriers may influence their career trajectories differently. Understanding these challenges is essential for addressing workforce disparities and optimizing cancer care delivery across diverse geographic regions.

Abstract Introduction Non-emergency medical transportation (NEMT) is a supplemental benefit in Medicare Advantage (MA) plans that helps individuals overcome barriers to healthcare services. It remains unclear whether these benefits are targeted communities with greater needs. Methods We analyzed MA plan data from 2020 2024 across 2,764 U.S. counties. Transportation were assessed using five indicators: vehicle ownership, income levels, self-reported health status, avoidable hospital visits,...
Oil-in-water (O/W) emulsions are expected to be formed in the process of surfactant flooding for heavy oil reservoirs order strengthen fluidity and enhance recovery. However, there is still a lack detailed understanding mechanisms effects involved flow O/W porous media. In this study, pore-scale transparent model packed with glass beads was first used investigate transport retention situ generated emulsions. Then, double-sandpack different permeabilities further study effect on improvement...
Abstract A pore‐network model is developed, based on a dual lattice, to study the dynamics of forward filtration combustion (FC) in porous media at scale. novel moving coordinate method also implemented that allows for long‐term profiles be obtained straightforward manner. The used reproduce recent analytical work, including multiplicity steady states nonadiabatic case, and number other effects. Particular emphasis placed effect heterogeneity microstructure, introduced by randomness pore...
Due to the water-coning problem, cycle steam stimulation (CSS) in heavy oil reservoirs with bottom water is often less effective, and recovery even below 10%. Steam assisted gravity drainage (SAGD) oil-producing process a constant pressure-drop (about 0.30 MPa), it potential technique for this reservoirs. Through implementation of SAGD, could be effectively controlled. Aiming at block LD5-2N Bohai offshore oilfield, SAGD performance heterogeneous reservoir was numerically studied paper. In...
Using the methods of physical simulation and numerical simulation, feasibility polymer-enhanced foam injection after polymer flooding is studied. First, an experiment-based screening criteria for foams presented, influence concentration on mobility investigated. Thereafter, parallel experiments conventional are performed. A Lorentz–Monte-Carlo method then proposed to establish heterogeneous geological models with different interlayer plane heterogeneity. Thus, sensitivity reservoir...
For the development of oil reservoir with bottom water, it is significant to analyze impact drawdown pressures on post water breakthrough performance horizontal wells. Based a small-scale and discretized physical simulation system, different influence changing in cut stage have been discussed. The results show that for thin relatively high viscosity (87.8 mPa.s), keeping large pressure medium low reasonable. But enlarging harmful increase ultimate recovery. further lower (21.4 adopting small...
224 Background: Older cancer populations are at higher risks of falls and fall-related injuries undergoing formidable antineoplastic treatment, conditioned to greater physical functional compromise. While passive risk surveillance fall prevention strategies often render ineffective, emerging evidence has indicated the benefits activity in reducing falls. This study aimed explore patient’s awareness doctor’s advice regarding relation among older patients (> 65) under active treatment....
Abstract With the further study on foaming agent performance, steam flooding assisted by nitrogen foam has been applied more widely. But flexibility of this technology in heterogeneous shallow layer heavy oil reservoir not fully researched. Through introducing a new dimensionless parameter—foam comprehensive evaluation index (FCEI), we use physical simulation to evaluate agents. Then make five sand filling tubes modeling permeability contrast light Henan reservoir. Based two kinds...
Abstract Steam Assisted Gravity Drainage (SAGD) is widely used as an in-situ technology to recover heavy oil and bitumen. But due serious heat losses, large energy requirements enormous CO2 emissions, pure SAGD may not be sufficiently efficient allow economical production. The main objective of addition viscosity reducer couple reduction capability surfactant. It strengthens the formation emulsions O/W type that have much lower than from which they are formed, enhances production under same...

Using a pore-network model, we study the effect of randomness in solid fuel distribution on propagation filtration combustion fronts porous media. Both complex model for full and more simplified gasless are used. We find that minimum threshold (akin to "percolation threshold") is function kinetic heat-transfer parameters can vary over wide range. The balance between heat transfer reaction kinetics endows system with behavior than simple percolation, which was earlier suggested as such...
