Compositional modeling of gas injection in tight oil reservoirs
… increase. Based on various field pilots, gas injection is by far the most promising IOR/EOR technology for tight oil reservoirs. This work developed an improved compositional model and its associated simulator to understand the complex multiphase and multicomponent behaviors during gas …

Quantitative monitoring of gas injection, exsolution and dissolution using 4D seismic
The main concern in the monitoring of gas injection, exsolution and dissolution is the exact spatial distribution of the gas volumes in the subsurface. In principle, this concern is addressed by the use of 4D seismic data. However, it is recognised that the seismic response still largely provides a …

Multiphase mechanisms and fluid dynamics in gas injection enhanced oil recovery processes
Currently, the Water-Alternating-Gas (WAG) process is the most widely practiced horizontal mode gas injection process in the industry. Although this process is conceptually sound, it has resulted in low (5 – 10%) oil field recoveries. Conversely, the gravity stable mode of gas injection has carved …

Oscillating shock impingement on low-angle gas injection into a supersonic flow
… by adding an oscillating shock to the helium injection flow field. Tests were conducted at Mach 3.0, with a total pressure of 6.5 atm, a total temperature of 290 K and a Reynolds number of 51.0 x 10⁶ per meter. Oscillating shocks of three different frequencies were studied. The frequencies …

Experimental Design of Electrophilic Gas Injection System for Plasma Blackout Mitigation during Hypersonic Reentry
… agreed upon in literature is electrophilic gas injection. Though gas injection systems have been theorized and shown to work in a laboratory environment, there is little to no experimental demonstration of an integrated system that encompasses most, if not all, aerothermodynamic aspects of a …

Single Well Completion and Management Strategies for Enhanced Recovery of Tight Oil Using Miscible Gas Injection
… at well to well displacement using water and gas as injection fluid failed in tight oil largely due to short-circuits along fractures connecting adjacent injection and production wells. As an alternative, operators have tried alternating miscible gas injection with production in a single well …

Investigation of Asphaltene Instability Under Gas Injection in Unconventional Reservoirs and its Impact on Oil Recovery Performance
<p>"Unconventional reservoirs, such as shale gas and tight oil formations, have become an important source of energy in recent years. However, these reservoirs often contain high levels of asphaltenes, which can lead to deposition and blockages in production wells and reduce the flow of …

Análise experimental do efeito do ângulo de injeção de gás em um escoamento vertical ascendente de líquido
Evaluates the effect of the gas injection angle in a upward vertical liquid flow, regarding the bubble size and shape distributions, as well as liquid velocity profile, both in the injection area. The experiments are carried in a 44 mm acrylic vertical pipe, in which water flows and air is injected …

Modification and evaluation of a ruminant emission measurement system for assessing cattle metabolism
Respiratory gas exchanges may be monitored to assess heat production as an indication of metabolic performance. A Ruminant Emission Measurement System (REMS) was initially constructed to measure methane emission from cattle, and is located at the Beef Cattle and Sheep Field Laboratory, the …

Measurement and modeling of fluid-fluid miscibility in multicomponent hydrocarbon systems
Carbon dioxide injection has currently become a major gas injection process for improved oil recovery. Laboratory evaluations of gas-oil miscibility conditions play an important role in process design and economic success of field miscible gas injection projects. Hence, this study involves the …

Modeling of multiphase turbulent flow in continuous casting of steel
… In the continuous casting of steel, argon gas injection at Upper Tundish Nozzle (UTN) wall or stopper tip is well known to decrease clogging and remove inclusions. Besides this intended gas injection, gas may be passively sucked into the system by negative pressure development inside of …

Pressure Pulsing Potential During Waterflooding and CO2 Flooding of Heavy Oil Reservoirs
… has become so dependent on oil and natural gas that no one can imagine life without the resources. Oil and gas deposits are limited and the main portion of conventional reservoirs is at a late stage of development, hence, the market price for oil and gas is continuously increasing. The need …

Argon Bubble Behavior in Slide-Gate Tundish Nozzles During Continuous Casting of Steel Slabs
"Argon injection into a tundish nozzle is an efficient and widely employed method to reduce nozzle clogging in the continuous casting process. It also affects casting operation and product quality by changing the flow pattern in the nozzle and mold. The current work combines mathematical modeling …

Determination of the velocity of sound in reservoir fluids using an equation of state
Production of oil and gas from hydrocarbon reservoirs results in reduction in reservoir pressure and changes in the fluid composition and saturations.
