Pore-Scale Investigation of Polymer Enhanced Low Salinity Water flooding EOR, M.Sc. Thesis Sharif University of Technology ; Mahani, Hassan (Supervisor) ; Rostami, Behzad (Supervisor)
Abstract
Low salinity water flooding (LSWF) is a relatively new EOR method in which low salinity or modified ionic composition water is injected into the reservoir to alter its wettability toward a more water-wettable state to accelerate oil recovery. Ease of field deployment and relatively low cost, as well as laboratory results confirming the positive effect of this method in improving the oil recovery factor, have made this technique attractive in the oil industry.Despite the many advantages of this method, overcoming the mixing between low and high salinity water which occurs due to a high mobility ratio between these two fluids is essential because it negatively affects the efficiency of LSWF....
