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. -
This study compares water-based chemicals including surfactants, nanoparticles, and ketones that can be used for enhancing the oil recovery of shale-oil reservoirs.
-
This paper describes a study to design and implement an enhanced oil recovery project via huff ’n’ puff using Y-grade injectant.
