Rheology of Triamine Functionalized Silica Reinforced Polymeric Gels Developed for Conformance Control Applications
(
American Chemical Society
, 2020 , Article)
Recently, cross-linked polymers such as polyacrylamide (PAM)/polyethylenimine (PEI) have been used in conformance control applications to replace conventional lost circulation materials (LCMs). The objective of this work ...
Adsorption of CO2 on Cu/SiO2 nano-catalyst: Experimental and theoretical study
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2022 , Article)
Copper-based silica is a promising catalyst for several reaction pathways for CO2 conversion to hydrocarbons. The activity of this catalyst in terms of conversion and product selectivity is affected by CO2 adsorption, ...
Investigation on the effect of mud additives on the gelation performance of PAM/PEI system for lost circulation control
(
Society of Petroleum Engineers
, 2021 , Conference Paper)
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 clays on CO2 adsorption and enhanced gas recovery in sandstone reservoirs
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2021 , Article)
Carbon dioxide enhanced gas recovery (EGR) is a promising technique to sequester CO2 and boost natural gas recovery from conventional depleted and unconventional tight gas reservoirs. Clay minerals are usually present in ...
Gelation kinetics of functionalized silica crosslinked polymeric gels used in conformance control applications
(
John Wiley and Sons Inc
, 2021 , Article)
The potential crosslinking of three types of nitrogen-containing functionalized silica (TAAcONa, guanidine, and triamine) with polyacrylamide (PAM) has been investigated. Only triamine silica was able to crosslink with ...
Reinforcement of polyacrylamide-co-tert-butyl acrylate base gel using nanosilica for conformance control at low and high reservoir temperatures
(
Society of Petroleum Engineers (SPE)
, 2020 , Conference Paper)
Challenges of water shut-off, which is categorized under conformance control, are nowadays common in the oil and gas industry. The excessive water quantities produced from oil reservoirs can make the production process ...
Carbon dioxide EGR and sequestration in mature and immature shale: Adsorption study
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2020 , Article)
Recently, CO2 sequestration in different shale formations has become an attractive option owing to the abundance of shale basins. However, these formations have different maturity levels and contain a variety of minerals ...
Impact of aluminium acetate particles size on the gelation kinetics of polyacrylamide-based gels: Rheological and molecular simulation study
(
John Wiley and Sons Inc
, 2021 , Article)
Inorganically crosslinked polymers have been intensively implemented for conformance control treatments in oil and gas wells at low temperatures (<90°C) because of their faster gelation time compared to organically crosslinked ...
Development of greener d-metal inorganic crosslinkers for polymeric gels used in water control in oil and gas applications
(
MDPI AG
, 2020 , Article)
Crosslinkable polymers, such as polyacrylamide (PAM), are widely applied for water control in oil and gas reservoirs. Organic and inorganic crosslinkers are used to formulate a gel with PAM. Although chromium has a high ...
CO2 enhanced gas recovery and sequestration in depleted gas reservoirs: A review
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2021 , Article Review)
Increasing CO2 emissions and global warming side effects have prompted the researchers to look for safe and reliable storage sites that have high capacity. Among the available CO2 capturing sinks, depleted gas reservoirs ...
