Influence of polyelectrolytes and other polymer complexes on the flocculation and rheological behaviors of clay minerals: A comprehensive review
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2017 , Article Review)
Separation of clay minerals from industrial wastewaters is of great academic and practical importance. Current treatment techniques are either not economically viable, not environmentally friendly, or both. Thus, researchers ...
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 ...
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 ...
Loss circulation in drilling and well construction: The significance of applications of crosslinked polymers in wellbore strengthening: A review
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2020 , Article Review)
Loss circulation is one of the major concerns in drilling and well construction. The uncontrolled flow of fluids into formation while drilling or primary cementing lead to substantial non-productive time (NPT). The methods ...
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 ...
Destabilization and treatment of produced water-oil emulsions using anionic polyacrylamide with electrolyate of aluminum sulphate and ferrous sulphate
(
Society of Petroleum Engineers
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
Surfactant and polymer flooding technology can greatly enhance the oil recovery through the expansion of sweeping and displacing efficiency. The recovered oil from surfactant and polymer flooding emulsifies the residual ...
Gelation kinetics of PAM/PEI based drilling mud for lost circulation applications
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2021 , Article)
The problem of lost circulation is a direct consequence of the presence of fractures or high permeability. Lost circulation material (LCM) is used to treat the loss that occurs or proactively strengthen the wellbore of the ...
Review on recent advances in polythiophene based photovoltaic devices
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2016 , Article Review)
Discovery of conducting polymer introduced us to the total polymeric solar cells (PSC). During the last decade, power conversion efficiency (PCE) of these solar cells has increased from 1% to 11.5% (with the bulk heterojunction ...
