Study the Effect of Specific Salt Ions on Interfacial Tension of Water (Lowsalinity/Smart) and Reservoir Fluid in Surface Tension Reducing Materials Flooding by Molecular Dynamic Simulation, M.Sc. Thesis Sharif University of Technology ; Ayatollahi, Shahabodin (Supervisor)
Abstract
Water injection is known as one of the most efficient and affordable techniques to displace the oil in the reservoirs. To increase oil recovery efficiency through water injection operation, recently low salinity water injection or water containing a certain amount of effective ions (engineered/low salinity water) is proposed. Besides, improving this technique is also adopted in the oil industry using certain chemicals like surfactants to change the interfacial tension or rock wettability for more oil recovery. In order to study and model the mechanisms involved during surfactant flooding, molecular dynamics simulation is utilized here as a novel technique. The advantage of this method over...
