Enhanced recovery
This study combines preshear degradation, permeability, and oil presence effects to evaluate and improve polymer injectivity using acrylamido tertiary butyl sulfonate (ATBS) polymer in carbonate rock.
The authors of this paper describe reservoir-fluid-geodynamics processes that explain the reasons behind varying oil compositions and properties within and across different reservoir compartments.
This work investigates the root cause of strong oil/water emulsion and if sludge formation is occurring within the reservoir using a robust integrated approach.
-
The authors of this paper develop an assay method to determine effective scale-inhibitor concentration. -
The authors of this paper use a pattern-review technique in a complex brownfield as a tool to understand reservoir connectivity and dynamic fluid movements across the field.
-
The authors of this paper describe a fiber-optic diagnostic method based on Rayleigh frequency shift that provides new insights about the characteristics of the near-wellbore region during production.

A North Dakota Supreme Court decision changed the rules for leasing pore space from landowners and their rights to compensation. This decision and the US Inflation Reduction Act, which significantly increases tax incentives for operators’ carbon capture and storage projects, is likely to spur other states to clarify their laws regulating pore space.
-
The paper describes the components of an all-electric system, how it fits within a subsea application, and how it compares with traditional electrohydraulic systems.
-
The paper investigates estimation of optimal design variables that maximize net present value for life-cycle production optimization during a single-well CO2 huff ‘n’ puff process in unconventional oil reservoirs.
-
This paper discusses the challenges presented by factors such as infrastructure, types of primary energy, and investment.
-
This paper illustrates efforts undertaken to evaluate high-viscosity friction reducers and crosslinked gel products, their successful field application, and the importance of maintaining an effective field/laboratory/field cycle.

In this article, I will focus on chemical enhanced oil recovery (EOR). What is its current status, and what is its future?
-
This paper describes measures undertaken in the discipline of production technology to prepare for one of the largest field redevelopment projects undertaken by the operator in Austria.
