A comprehensive review on the rheological behavior of imidazolium based ionic liquids and natural deep eutectic solvents
( Elsevier B.V. , 2019 , Article Review)The rheological behavior of a fluid is an important property that has a distinct impact on its flow conduct, which influence viscosity dependent phenomena and applications such as pumping, mass transfer rates, and ... -
CFD analysis of turbulent flow of power-law fluid in a partially blocked eccentric annulus
( MDPI AG , 2021 , Article)This study focuses on analyzing the turbulent flow of drilling fluid in inclined wells using the Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) technique. The analysis is performed considering an annulus with a fixed eccentricity of ... -
Clogging vs. fouling in immersed membrane bioreactors
( Elsevier Ltd , 2018 , Article)Whilst the fouling of MBR membrane surfaces has been very extensively explored by the academic community, there is an increasingly widespread recognition by practitioners of the issue of clogging of membrane channels with ... -
Development of a polyacrylamide-based mud formulation for loss circulation treatments
( American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME) , 2021 , Article)Loss circulation materials in the last two decades have witnessed a lot of developments and implementations. New technologies and materials are introduced to treat various types of loss zones. However, the success rate is ... -
Development of novel thin film composite reverse osmosis membranes for desalination
( American Institute of Physics Inc. , 2019 , Conference)Microporous Polyetherimide (PEI) membranes were prepared by wet phase inversion at different temperatures. The thin film composites (TFC) of polyamide on microporous PEI were prepared using meta-Phenylenediamine (MPD) and ... -
Effect of temperature and fluid speed on the corrosion behavior of carbon steel pipeline in Qatari oilfield produced water
( Elsevier B.V. , 2018 , Article)Metals integrity, such as carbon steel used in pipeline network can be seriously damaged by produced water causing serious corrosion problems. This can result in significant threats to safe operation of the oilfield ... -
Experimental measurements and modelling of viscosity and density of calcium and potassium chlorides ternary solutions
( Nature Research , 2020 , Article)Measured viscosity and density data for ternary aqueous solutions of CaCl2 and KCl are presented at temperatures between 293 and 323�K with 5�K increment. A modified Jones?Dole was introduced by adding extra terms and ... -
Gelation Performance of PAM/PEI Polymer-Based Mud System for Lost Circulation Control
( EAGE Publishing BV , 2021 , Conference)Lost circulation is one of the most common problems in the drilling of oil and gas wells where mud escapes through natural or induced fractures. Lost circulation can have severe consequences from increasing the operational ... -
Impact of combined oil-in-water emulsions and particulate suspensions on ceramic membrane fouling and permeability recovery
( Elsevier B.V. , 2019 , Article)The application of crossflow ceramic microfiltration (CFCMF) to the removal of emulsified oil from a simple analogue of raw produced water (PW) arising from oil exploration has been studied. Outcomes relate to surfactant ... -
Integrated approach for closure correction of mercury injection capillary pressure measurements
( Elsevier , 2023 , Article)Closure correction is a key requirement for a reliable petrophysical evaluation using mercury injection capillary pressure (MICP). The available correction methods rely on identifying deflection points on capillary pressure ... -
Kinetics of CO 2 reaction with N-methyldiethanolamine and aminobutanol using stopped flow technique
( Institute of Physics Publishing , 2018 , Conference)Removal of carbon dioxide (CO 2 ) from natural gas streams is mandatory to avoid pipeline corrosion, increase the heating value of the gas and reduce the gas volume in case of liquefied natural gas (LNG). The use of ... -
Mechanistic modeling of wellbore cleanout in horizontal and inclined wells
( Society of Petroleum Engineers , 2021 , Conference)The accumulation of rock cuttings, proppant, and other solid debris in the wellbore due to inadequatecleanout remarkably impedes field operations. This article presents a new hole cleaning model, whichcalculates the Critical ... -
Metal-oxide nanotubes functional material tailored for membrane water/wastewater treatment
( Institute of Physics Publishing , 2019 , Conference)Titanium Dioxide Nano-Tubes (TNTs) synthesized by hydrothermal method were used to prepare new polysulfone thin film nanocomposite (TFN) membranes. The TFN membranes contained different TNTs proportions (0.1, 0.3 and 0.5 ... -
Polymeric formulations used for loss circulation materials and wellbore strengthening applications in oil and gas wells: A review
( Elsevier B.V. , 2019 , Article Review)Drilling fluid circulation loss is referred to as “the most severe problem in drilling of oil and gas wells”, as a routine solution, loss circulation materials are added to fill any fractures and vugs that may have been ... -
Reaction kinetics of carbon dioxide in aqueous blends of N-methyldiethanolamine and L-arginine using the stopped-flow technique
( MDPI AG , 2019 , Article)Reduction of carbon dioxide emission from natural and industrial flue gases is paramount to help mitigate its effect on global warming. Efforts are continuously deployed worldwide to develop efficient technologies for CO ... -
Thermochemical Upgrading of Calcium Bentonite for Drilling Fluid Applications
( American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME) , 2019 , Article)The rheological properties of bentonite suspensions depend on the chemical composition and the contained dominant element, such as calcium (Ca), potassium (K), and sodium (Na). Na-bentonite type is the one used in drilling ...
