Analysis of Shale-Water Interactions and Flowback Water Chemistry for Fracture Characterization
DownloadFall 2018
Extensive imbibition experiments are performed to investigate shale-water interactions at different conditions. Effects of rock-surface area, rock volume, temperature, and pressure are investigated on the ion concentration during the imbibition experiments. The experimental results of ion...

Estimating Diffusion Coefficients And Visualizing Interactions In Propane-Heavy Oil Systems
DownloadSpring 2019
Unconventional oil (mainly heavy oil, extra heavy oil and bitumen) represents a significant share of global oil reserves. Due to their high viscosity, efficient recovery of oil from these reserves is challenging and remains an issue of ongoing global research. Thermal recovery methods are...
