Experimental investigation of the effect of injection water salinity on the displacement efficiency of miscible carbon dioxide WAG flooding in a selected carbonate reservoirSpringer Science and Business Media LLC - Tập 5 - Trang 363-373 - 2015
Abdulrazag Zekri, Hazim Al-Attar, Omar Al-Farisi, Reyadh Almehaideb, Essa Georges Lwisa
The effect of injection brine salinity on the displacement efficiency of low water salinity flooding was investigated using sea water at 35,000 ppm, and two field injection waters, namely, Um-Eradhuma (UER) at 171,585 ppm and simsima (SIM) at 243,155 ppm. The salinity of the employed waters was varied from original salinity to 1,000 ppm and used in the displacement of oil in selected core samples...... hiện toàn bộ
A pragmatic approach for optimizing gas lift operationsSpringer Science and Business Media LLC - Tập 10 - Trang 197-216 - 2019
Ali A. Garrouch, Mabkhout M. Al-Dousari, Zahra Al-Sarraf
The oil flow rate in a single vertical well undergoing gas lift operations is complicated by three factors: (1) The flow is driven by gas injection, in addition to the fluid flow potential gradient applied along the well, (2) the well is interfaced with a porous and permeable reservoir contributing with a fluid feed, and (3) the wellbore geometry may consist of concentric pipes of varying diameter...... hiện toàn bộ
Dynamic production characteristics and effect analysis of combined gas production well of coalbed methane and tight gasSpringer Science and Business Media LLC - Tập 12 - Trang 397-407 - 2021

For gas reservoirs with poor physical properties, the implementation of a single well with multi-layer combined production is an effective means to achieve efficient development. However, because of the differences in the geological conditions of the vast majority of multi-layer gas reservoirs, the dynamic characteristics of the gas wells will be complex under the multi-layer combined mining mode,...... hiện toàn bộ
Transportation of heavy oils using polymer-stabilized oil-in-water emulsionsSpringer Science and Business Media LLC - Tập 7 - Trang 881-890 - 2016

The increase in demand for crude oil and the depletion of light crude oil reserves have led to increase in the production of heavy crude oils. This has resulted in an interest in decreasing the pumping costs by techniques such as heating, dilution and/or mixing with water. Among the aforementioned methods, emulsification of heavy crude oil with water is the cheapest, and hence, optimizing its appl...... hiện toàn bộ
A simple NMR methodology for evaluating filter cake properties and drilling fluid-induced formation damageSpringer Science and Business Media LLC - Tập 10 - Trang 1643-1655 - 2019
Abdulrauf R. Adebayo, Badr S. Bageri
An efficient drilling fluid will form a filter cake that will minimize the drilling fluid invasion into any drilled formation. Drilling fluid must therefore be adequately evaluated in the laboratory prior to field trial. Filter cake properties such as thickness, porosity, permeability, and pore structure are frequently evaluated using several techniques such as CT scan, SEM, and XRF. However, each...... hiện toàn bộ
Study of accelerated erosion of elbow-shaped connections with corrosion defectsSpringer Science and Business Media LLC - Tập 13 - Trang 2303-2314 - 2023
Biao Yin, Hejun Zou, Jie Liu, Shanyong Liu, Yishan Lou
In the later stages of gas field development, corrosion and erosion wear often occur in elbow-shaped connections used for gas transportation. Combined with laboratory corrosion experiments, the paper is based on CFD to study the distribution characteristics of pressure and velocity in the flow field for the elbow with pre-set corrosion defects. Simultaneously, the specific procedure is designed to...... hiện toàn bộ
Judgment method of working condition of pumping unit based on the law of polished rod load dataSpringer Science and Business Media LLC - Tập 11 - Trang 911-923 - 2021
Chuanjun Han, Yang Yue
At present, oil companies are committed to applying the theory and means of mathematics or data science to the research of oilfield data rules. However, for some old oil wells, aging equipment, complex environment and backward management, cause the authenticity and accuracy of the data collected by the equipment cannot be determined. According to the actual engineering demand of the old wells, thi...... hiện toàn bộ
