Effect of pH on dissolution of iron sulfide scales using THPS
(
Society of Petroleum Engineers (SPE)
, 2019 , Conference Paper)
Iron Sulfides scale has been a critical problem for oil and gas wells for several decades. One of the best candidates to remove these scales is tetrakis(hydroxymethyl)phosphonium sulfate (THPS). Most studies on the dissolution ...
Improvement of PVA gel properties for cell immobilization
(
Avestia Publishing
, 2019 , Conference Paper)
This study investigates the characterization and the ability of polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) gel to be used in the area of wastewater treatment as biomass immobilization matrix. The PVA matrix was prepared through the ...

Industrial development and demographic growth come at a cost to the climate, not least on its impact on the water resources. The high demand on water usage and the associated production of wastewater requires stringent ...
Effects of Pipe Rotation on the Performance of Fibrous Fluids in Horizontal Well Cleanout
(
Society of Petroleum Engineers (SPE)
, 2022 , Conference Paper)
The deposition of rock cuttings is a problem commonly faced during drilling, completion, and intervention operations. Using polymer-based fluids is a common technique to improve horizontal downhole cleaning. However, these ...
Rapid Curing Environmentally Degradable Polymeric Pill for Loss Circulation Treatment
(
Society of Petroleum Engineers (SPE)
, 2022 , Conference Paper)
Loss circulation is frequent while drilling in naturally fractured or depleted reservoirs, which is usually associated with high non-productive time (NPT). Moreover, naturally pre-existing fractures may propagate when fluid ...
