A comprehensive rheological study for a flowing polymer-based drilling fluid used for wellbore strengthening
(
Society of Petroleum Engineers (SPE)
, 2020 , Conference Paper)
Loss circulation encountered in highly fractured formations, depleted reservoir, or HP/HT intervals is the root cause of many problems plaguing the oil and gas sector for many years. High pore pressure narrows the window ...
A mechanistic gas kick model to simulate gas in a riser with water and synthetic-based drilling fluid
(
Society of Petroleum Engineers
, 2020 , Conference Paper)
This paper presents a simple mechanistic model to describe a gas kick in a drilling riser with water- based mud (WBM) and synthetic-based mud (SBM). This model can estimate key kick parameters such as the change in the ...
Treatment of saline wastewater and carbon dioxide capture using electrodialysis
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2021 , Conference Paper)
In this study, electrodialysis was used to achieve a combined action of capturing carbon dioxide and treating high-salinity water to produce hydrochloric acid, hydrogen gas, and carbonate and bicarbonate salts. Sodium ...
CO2 Absorption Capacity and its Enthalpy of Absorption in Aqueous Blend of MDEA/Piperazine/Arginine
(
Institute of Physics Publishing
, 2020 , Conference Paper)
In this work, the solubility data of CO2 in aqueous blends of N-Methyldiethanolamine, Piperazine and Arginine (MDEA/PZ/ARG) of a total concentration of two moles is presented. CO2partial pressure was varied from 9 to 99 ...
Investigation of gas-liquid flow using electrical resistance tomography and wavelet analysis techniques for early kick detection
(
American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
, 2021 , Conference Paper)
Gas kick is a well control problem and is defined as the sudden influx of formation gas into the wellbore. This sudden influx, if not controlled, may lead to a blowout problem. An accidental spark during a blowout can lead ...
A CFD Investigation on the Effect of IPSBR Operational Conditions on Liquid Phase Hydrodynamics
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2021 , Conference Paper)
This study used a computational fluid dynamics simulation of an inert-particle spouted-bed reactor, which consists of a cylindrical vessel with a conical base, to investigate the effect of different operational parameters ...
Synthesis and Characterization of Fe3O4 Nanoparticles Using Different Experimental Methods
(
Institute of Physics Publishing
, 2020 , Conference Paper)
This paper reports a comparative study on the synthesis of Fe3O4 nanoparticles using three different methods, namely; Co-precipitation, Sonochemical and Solvothermal methods. Ferric chloride hexahydrate (FeCl3.6H2O) and ...
Applications of Machine Learning Methods to Predict Hole Cleaning in Horizontal and Highly Deviated Wells
(
Society of Petroleum Engineers (SPE)
, 2023 , Conference Paper)
Machine learning (ML) has become a robust method for modeling field operations based on measurements. For example, wellbore cleanout is a critical operation that needs to be optimized to enhance the removal of solids to ...
A Mechanistic Model for Wellbore Cleanout in Horizontal and Inclined Wells
(
Society of Petroleum Engineers (SPE)
, 2021 , Conference Paper)
The accumulation of rock cuttings, proppant, and other solid debris in the wellbore caused by inadequate cleanout remarkably impedes field operations. The cuttings removal process becomes a more challenging task as the ...
Investigation of Matrix Damage and Remediation Methods of Preformed Particle Gel Conformance Control Treatments in Carbonate Reservoirs
(
Society of Petroleum Engineers (SPE)
, 2022 , Conference Paper)
Preformed Particle Gels (PPGs) have been widely applied to control excessive water production in mature oil fields with fractures or fracture-like features, especially in sandstones, but with limited attention to carbonates. ...
