Mechanistic Modeling, Design, and Optimization of Low Salinity Waterflooding
Low Salinity Waterflooding (LSW) is an emerging attractive enhanced oil recovery (EOR) method because of its oil recovery performance and relatively simple, environmentally friendly implementation, when compared with conventional high salinity waterflooding and EOR approaches. Most studies on the …

Pore-scale Interfacial and Transport Phenomena in Hydrocarbon Reservoirs
… into gas-filled mica pores was found to follow the diffusive scaling law, but with an effective diffusivity much larger than the self-diffusivity of water molecules. The invasion of gas into water-filled pores with width down to 2nm occurs at a critical invasion pressure similar to that …

Novel insights into low salinity water flooding enhanced oil recovery in sandstone reservoirs
… improved oil recovery (IOR) techniques, such as low salinity (LS) waterflooding. Also, the reduction in reservoir energy and the friendly environmental aspects of low salinity water flooding (LSWF) provide additional incentives for its use. That LS water requires decreasing only the active …

Particle Detachment in Single-Phase and Two-Phase Flows in Porous Media
… space. This effect was observed during high-salinity water injection in cores with low kaolinite concentrations. This model is also extended to account for the presence of a residual phase. Compared with fines migration under single-phase flow, having a residual phase significantly reduces …
