Unconventional/complex reservoirs
The company credited its theory of shale oil enrichment for the significant increase in the quantity of proven reserves at the field.
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.
In this work, a perturbed-chain statistical associating fluid theory equation of state has been developed to characterize heavy-oil-associated systems containing polar components and nonpolar components with respect to phase behavior and physical properties.
