Tunu is a mature giant gas field, located in swamp area of Mahakam delta. It covers an area of 75 km long and 15 km wide with enormous multi-layer sand-shale series deposited within a deltaic environment. The production commenced in 1990... more
separator test to determine pvt properties of crude oil and gases
Nowadays various recovery mechanisms are used in the petroleum industry to increase hydrocarbon production as much as possible in a given oil and gas field. Water flooding being the main technology used, it recovers 10 to 40 percent of... more
Recently, the need to decrease CO2 concentration in the atmosphere has been recognized because of the role of CO2 as a greenhouse gas that contributes to global warming. Carbon Capture and Sequestration (CCS) is one of the most promising... more
An offshore gas field located about 56 km from the coast of East Africa with the water depth of 1153 m. The permeability distribution varies across different layers with an overall permeability of 680 mD, and porosity distribution for the... more
Dengan permintaan energy semakin meningkat terutama energy fosill fuel ( oil & gas), maka sangat penting untuk meningkatkan recovery factor dan gas terutama pada fase tertiary ( EOR) . Injeksi polimer merupakan salah satu dari bagian... more
In order to reduce the permeability to water or brine, there is a possibility of polymer injection into the reservoir. In the present work, special focus has been paid in polymer [partially hydrolyzed polyacrylamide (PHPA)] injection as a... more
The limitation of Steam Injection to depths (usually not more than 5000-ft) has been a subject of concern in the application of Steam Injection for heavy and extra heavy oil recovery. This is usually as a result of the complex mechanism... more
This article provides a summary and overview of enhanced oil recovery (EOR) technologies. Thermal recovery methods, gas injection and chemical techniques are the main categories of the EOR. Each category has its own criteria and... more
The Capillary number hypothesis is very empirical in Surfactant flooding Enhanced Oil Recovery (EOR) method. which is of modest experience on the North Sea and many other offshore platforms. The capillary number drives the force wetting... more
Magnetic iron oxide and titanium dioxide nanoparticles (NPs) have been synthesized inside stable oil-in-water microemulsions in harsh environment of high temperature-high salinity (HT-HS). Screening of anionic−nonionic mixture of... more
Enhanced Oil Recovery (EOR) has been implemented since 1975 to help address growing domestic consumption in India. However, less than 4% of India’s oil is currently being produced by EOR techniques. Further resources could be tapped in... more
All along its rugged coastline, and high in the mountain ranges of its desert quarters, historic port cities and forts bear witness to Oman' s rich heritage of trading and seafaring. In ancient times, dhows from Oman traded frankincense... more
Advancing technology in thermal recovery and declining conventional oil resources are leading to the increased application of thermal heavy oil recovery processes. Heavy oil resources in carbonate rock are estimated at 1.6 trillion bbl,... more
With the relatively modest natural gas price, producing oil from unconventional shale reservoirs has attracted more and more interest from oil operators. Although many tremendous efforts have been made to develop shale resources, the... more
Most giant clastic reservoirs in Iraq will need to apply enhanced oil recovery in the near future, as these reservoirs go to maturity. The need to develop a rapid and cheap assessment of the enhanced oil recovery methods has become a hot... more

Currently, the share of new fields in many places over the world, which are at the initial stage of development, is constantly growing. Fields often have a complex heterogeneous structure with hard-to-recover reserves, therefore, for... more
Carbon dioxide flooding is considered one of the most commonly used miscible gas injections to improve oil recovery, and its applicability has grown significantly due to its availability, greenhouse effect and easy achievement of... more
A method for isolating water inflow in gas wells is proposed, which consists in pumping a water-insulating composition into the water saturated interval using gas as a blowing fluid. The results of studies on physical models of the... more
In reservoir engineering, an oil reservoir is commonly modeled using Darcy’s diffusion equation for a porous medium. In this work we propose a fractional diffusion equation to model the pressure distribution, p(x, t), of fluid in a... more
The tasks of applying new technologies of oil production are urgent. These technologies must significantly be able to increase the oil recovery of already developed formations, where it is no longer possible to extract significant... more
In this study series of runs were done by a CFD technique in which the injected fluid is nanoparticles/supercritical CO2. Geometry of the porous medium was created with the commercial grid generation tool (Gambit software). Continuity,... more
The upstream petroleum industry faces operational and technical problems due to increased deposition of waxes, aromatics and asphaltene from crude oil sludge in oil storage tanks in the form of tank-bottom sludge (TBS). This results in... more
Residual oil saturation can quantitatively be determined by logging and coring methods, but these methods have a small radius of investigation. Therefore, the Single Well Tracer Test (SWTT) method is a better alternative because it has an... more
This study is intended to expand the scope of microbial enhanced oil recovery (MEOR) simulation studies from 1D to field scale focussing on fluid viscosity variation and heterogeneity that lacks in most MEOR studies. Hence, we developed a... more
The paper aims at explaining how politicization (Lagroye, 2003 ; Swyngedouw, 2004) of the industries of the subsurface in France in the last decade contributes to generate conflicting narratives about the limits of the Earth at different... more
