Comprehensive Review on the Role of Surfactants in the Chemical Enhanced Oil Recovery Process

Satyajit Chowdhury et al.

Summary: This review provides a detailed discussion on the properties and influencing factors of surfactants used in chemical enhanced oil recovery (cEOR), as well as the effects of different types of surfactants on oil recovery. Additionally, emerging surfactant flooding aids and their mechanisms, such as nanotechnology applications and surfactant-low salinity water flooding, are highlighted. The challenges faced by the industry in implementing surfactant cEOR are also outlined.

Investigation of Surface Charge at the Mineral/Brine Interface: Implications for Wettability Alteration

Isah Mohammed et al.

Summary: The composition and salinity of the environment have direct implications for the behavior of minerals in the reservoir rock, which contribute to the overall formation wettability. Surface charge development is a dominant mechanism responsible for wettability alteration, and it is influenced by pH, fluid composition, and oilfield operations. The results of this study provide key insights into the control of mineral surface charge development and its role in enhancing production.

A diffuse layer model for hydrocarbon mass transfer between pores and organic matter for supercritical CO2 injection and sequestration in shale

Shaojie Zhang et al.

Summary: CO2 injection in shale oil reservoirs is a feasible method for geological sequestration and enhanced oil recovery. This study investigated the mechanisms of mass transfer between inorganic pores, organic matter, and kerogen matrix, proposing a novel PKDL model. Mathematical models derived for hydrocarbon mass transfer in different rock shapes matched experimental data closely, revealing delayed hydrocarbon recovery in shales compared to tight rocks. This research advances diffusion and extraction theories in shale rocks, contributing to the injection and sequestration of CO2 in shale formations.
