Enhanced recovery
Coreflood experiments reveal that alkali significantly reduces viscosity loss in polyacrylamide flooding systems by minimizing adsorption and improving polymer stability under shear stress. The findings position viscosity retention as a key screening criterion for successful alkali-polymer enhanced-oil-recovery applications.
This study investigates the potential for in-situ hydrogen generation from hydrocarbons using in-situ combustion, with particular emphasis on the role of kerogen content and heating mode.
This paper presents the application of degradable particulate-diverter technology to improve oil production by effectively diverting stimulation treatment fluids away from high-water-cut, high-permeability, high-temperature producing intervals or zones.

The objective of this study is to develop an explainable data-driven method using five different methods to create a model using a multidimensional data set with more than 700 rows of data for predicting minimum miscibility pressure. -
The authors present an open-source framework for the development and evaluation of machine-learning-assisted data-driven models of CO₂ enhanced oil recovery processes to predict oil production and CO₂ retention.
-
The authors of this paper propose hybrid models, combining machine learning and a physics-based approach, for rapid production forecasting and reservoir-connectivity characterization using routine injection or production and pressure data.

CO₂ enhanced oil recovery (EOR) provides an attractive and commercially established technique to store CO₂ underground. EOR modeling is crucial because complex simulation is required to predict the behavior of CO₂ and its interaction with the oil and reservoir rock.
-
This polymer retention study examines temperature effect on an ATBS-based polymer, using single- and two-phase retention studies and different analytical methods in the presence and absence of oil.

This paper describes a project in the heavy oil Captain field in the UK sector of the North Sea in which reduced environmental impact dovetails with improved economics.
-
This study explores the potential of locally produced surfactants for enhanced oil recovery in high-temperature and high-salinity reservoir environments.
-
International agreements and national policies on environmental sustainability are changing the outlook for enhanced oil recovery globally. These changes are highlighted by both monetary and intellectual commitments by oil companies around the world.
