Development of efficient formulation for the removal of iron sulphide scale in sour production wells
(
Wiley-Liss Inc.
, 2018 , Article)
Iron sulphide scale, which exists in different forms, is common in sour oil and gas production wells. Iron sulphide hard scales are difficult to remove with acids, requiring mechanical intervention or the replacement of ...
Pyrite Scale Removal Using Green Formulations for Oil and Gas Applications: Reaction Kinetics
(
American Chemical Society
, 2019 , Article)
Pyrite is one of the toughest iron sulfide scales to remove, which causes major problems in oil and gas production by damaging production equipment. The use of inorganic acid in iron sulfide scale removal particularly ...
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 ...
Pyrite-scale removal using glutamic diacetic acid: A theoretical and experimental investigation
(
Society of Petroleum Engineers (SPE)
, 2021 , Article)
Iron sulfide scale causes major losses in both upstream and downstream sectors of the hydrocarbon industry. Pyrite is one of the most-difficult forms of iron sulfide scale from a removal point of view. Inorganic acids such ...
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 ...
Dissolution kinetics of different inorganic oilfield scales in green formulations
(
American Chemical Society
, 2020 , Article)
Scale mineral deposition is a critical problem that hinders the daily production of oil and gas fields. Chemical removal of these scales, based on the scale type, is common. In this paper, borax and diethylene tremaine ...
Ab-Initio Molecular Dynamics investigation of gas adsorption on α-quartz (001) for CO2 enhanced natural gas recovery
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2021 , Article)
In this work, the interaction of methane and carbon dioxide on α-quartz with surface 001, with a siloxane termination (dense) surface was investigated by means of Ab-Initio Molecular Dynamics. Different temperatures were ...
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 ...
Review of Iron Sulfide Scale Removal and Inhibition in Oil and Gas Wells: Current Status and Perspectives
(
American Chemical Society
, 2021 , Article Review)
Iron sulfide scale is one of the main types of inorganic scales that block oil and gas wells. Iron sulfide has polymorph crystallinity structures, which complicate its dissolving and inhibition. Hydrochloric acid (HCl) is ...
Applications of chelating agents in the upstream oil and gas industry: A review
(
American Chemical Society
, 2020 , Article Review)
Chelating agents show very effective performance in different applications in the upstream oil and gas industry. This study presents a critical review of the application of chelating agents in acidizing, scale removal, ...
