Study on frequency optimization and mechanism of ultrasonic waves assisting water flooding in low-permeability reservoirs

Xu Li et al.

Summary: The study proposed an unsupervised learning method to group low-permeability cores and demonstrated that ultrasonic waves can enhance water flooding, especially in oil-wet and weakly water-wet low-permeability cores. Additionally, investigations into the EOR mechanism of ultrasonic waves in low-permeability reservoirs showed improvements in oil viscosity and oil-water interfacial tension reductions as well as modifications to pore connectivity.

Energetic study of ultrasonic wettability enhancement

Jon Ander Sarasua et al.

Summary: The study focuses on using ultrasound for surface wettability control, with observations of enhanced wettability when liquids are exposed to low and high frequency vibration. Ultrasound can instantly adjust the contact angle by tuning the vibration amplitude, but there is still a lack of complete understanding about the physical principles behind this phenomenon.

Formulation of bionanomaterials: A review of particle design towards oil recovery applications

Augustine Agi et al.

Summary: Bio-nanomaterials have been proposed for minimizing environmental impact and costs, but their performance depends on material properties and synthesis methods. This study focuses on designing bio-nanomaterials for oil recovery applications. Challenges in designing and applying bio-nanomaterials have led to new research opportunities, with solutions proposed to address these challenges. By controlling nucleation rate and supersaturation, the size and shape of nanocrystals can be controlled during the synthesis process.

How Is Ultrasonic-Assisted CO2 EOR to Unlock Oils from Unconventional Reservoirs?

Hengli Wang et al.

Summary: This study introduces an ultrasonic-assisted approach to enhance CO2 miscible EOR in exploring tight oils, showing that ultrasonic treatment can significantly change oil properties, reduce viscosity, decrease resin and asphaltene contents, break macromolecules bonds, and ultimately increase oil recovery factor by 11.7%. The research provides insights into the mechanisms of ultrasonic-assisted CO2 miscible EOR for tight oils production.
