Besides the high oil recovery efficiency, the asphaltene precipitation and deposition is believed to be triggered by a perturbation of the thermodynamic equilibrium present in the reservoir. Asphaltene deposition results in wettability alteration and plugging in the reservoir as well as affecting the production facilities. The complicated mechanism of phase separation in asphaltene-containing systems makes it crucial to study the effects of different parameters on the aggregation of asphaltene particles. In this study, a novel high-pressure visual cell equipped with a high-resolution microscope along with the image processing software was prepared to investigate the growth of asphaltene particles on a sample reservoir rock. The quantity of asphaltene deposition was determined at several pressure depletion steps and different temperatures with and without CO2 injection. T...

In this study, cyclic and continuous steam injection were used separately and in ...
