增强恢复能力

基于 Smartwater 的协同技术在提高石油采收率方面具有潜力

这项工作探讨了智能水在聚合物驱、表面活性剂/聚合物驱、碳酸水驱和泡沫辅助注气中的协同效应。

Smartwater-Based Synergistic Technologies Offer Potential in Enhanced Oil Recovery

This work explores the synergistic effects of smartwater in polymerflooding, surfactant/polymerflooding, carbonated waterflooding, and foam-assisted gas-injection.

In the complete paper, the authors explore the synergistic effects of smartwater in polymerflooding, surfactant polymer (SP) flooding, carbonated waterflooding, and foam-assisted gas-injection processes. A suite of multiscale experimental data is analyzed to demonstrate and quantify the benefits of water-chemistry synergies in these enhanced oil recovery methods. Smartwater increased oil recoveries by 5–7% in addition to reducing polymer-concentration requirements by one-third in polymerflooding.
