Enhanced recovery

The authors of this paper apply a deep-learning model for multivariate forecasting of oil production and carbon-dioxide-sequestration efficiency across a range of water-alternating-gas scenarios using field data from six legacy carbon-dioxide enhanced-oil-recovery projects.

As the industry accelerates carbon capture, use, and storage initiatives, modeling innovations for carbon-dioxide injection and enhanced oil recovery have become critical for optimizing recovery and ensuring secure storage. Recent studies highlight a shift toward data-driven and hybrid approaches that combine computational efficiency with operational practicality.

The objective of this microfluidic investigation is to identify and test two novel applications for magnetic fluids in porous media for subsurface oilfield applications.

This paper describes a study to design and implement an enhanced oil recovery project via huff ’n’ puff using Y-grade injectant.

This study compares water-based chemicals including surfactants, nanoparticles, and ketones that can be used for enhancing the oil recovery of shale-oil reservoirs.

Entrepreneurial mindsets with the motivation to explore new materials, not limited to focusing on traditional hydrocarbon gas, carbon dioxide, and chemicals such as polymer and surfactant, are becoming more important for broadening prospects beyond the conventional EOR scene.

This paper discusses a comprehensive hybrid approach that combines machine learning with a physics-based risk-prediction model to detect and prevent the formation of hydrates in flowlines and separators.

This paper explains that the discovery of specific pressure trends, combined with an unconventional approach for analyzing gas compositional data, enables the detection and prediction of paraffin deposition at pad level and in the gathering system.

This paper presents an approach to subsea hydrate-risk management based on the understanding that some crudes have induction properties that delay hydrate formation even when the pressure and temperature conditions reach the hydrate thermodynamic region.
