Enhanced recovery
This paper presents a novel sustainable cost-effective method developed to scale up synthesis of Janus carbon nanoparticles from waste plastic feedstock by combined pyrolysis, chemical functionalization, and pulverization.
This paper presents a systematic review of the largest alkaline-surfactant-polymer flood project in the world, applied to the largest oil field in China.
In this paper, the authors evaluate the simultaneous optimization of CO2 storage and oil recovery using multiple injection strategies.

This paper describes efforts at the Hydraulic Fracturing Test Site 2 to collect a research data set to improve understating of spatial and temporal hydraulic fracture dimensions, proppant distribution, and reservoir depletion.
-
This study introduces a data-driven virtual viscosity meter as a tool to augment inline and laboratory viscosity measurements.
-
This paper presents an integrated system for fracturing optimization using real-time and historical data along with organizational knowledge and the challenges and key considerations of implementing such a system.
-
This paper describes the analysis of actual performance data for acid fracturing in a tight carbonate formation to investigate the ineffectiveness of the process.
-
This paper presents the interpretation of two polymer-injectivity tests performed in two giant light-oil high-salinity/high-temperature carbonate reservoirs onshore Abu Dhabi.
-
The authors describe a casing-leak-repair alternative to allow continued hydraulic fracturing of an unconventional formation.
-
The authors describe coiled tubing operations that used a riser on a monohulled vessel already performing riserless interventions.
-
The first acid job dates to 1895. Challenges remain, however, when it comes to lithology, coverage, penetration, and management of reaction products. These themes remain a focus for stimulation engineers.
-
The paper describes the development of an alkaline/surfactant/polymer formulation for the Mangala field in India, which involved more than 30 corefloods.
