A perforated electrode design for passivation reduction during the electrochemical treatment of produced water
(
Elsevier
, 2020 , Article)
Produced water refers to the water that is generated when oil and gas are extracted from the ground, and it usually includes the natural water layer within the reservoir (formation water) as well as the injected water. The ...
Qatari tight Gas Reservoirs: Molecular Simulation insights toward Estimation of Ultimate Recovery (EUR) from Carbonated Reservoirs
(
Qatar University Press
, 2021 , Poster)
The geometrical properties of the reservoir rocks are usually affected by natural thermodynamics or environmental changes that may affect the amount of gas in place in the reservoir. To address these properties, we conduct ...
Recovery of rare earth elements from waste streams using membrane processes: An overview
(
Elsevier
, 2021 , Article)
Recovery of rare earth elements (REEs) has become an attractive process owing to the high costs and limited availabilities of REEs. In addition, the recovery of REEs has become a necessity because of their high toxicity ...
Ab Initio molecular dynamics of the dissolution of oilfield pyrite scale using borax
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2020 , Article)
Iron sulfide scales, particularly pyrite, form in oil and gas underground tubing and surface equipment thus blocking the flow of fluids and halting production. Therefore, the development of physicochemical processes for ...
Effect of strain on gas adsorption in tight gas carbonates: A DFT study
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2021 , Article)
The geometrical properties of the reservoir rocks are usually affected by natural thermodynamics or environmental changes. These factors may modify the distribution and the amount of gas in place in the reservoir. To address ...
Development of a polyacrylamide-based mud formulation for loss circulation treatments
(
American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
, 2021 , Article)
Loss circulation materials in the last two decades have witnessed a lot of developments and implementations. New technologies and materials are introduced to treat various types of loss zones. However, the success rate is ...
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 ...
Investigation of thin-film composite hollow fiber forward osmosis membrane for osmotic concentration: A pilot-scale study
(
Springer
, 2022 , Article)
The current study applied the forward osmosis (FO) based osmotic concentration (OC) process at the pilot-scale for concentrating synthetic feed solution (FS). The process water (PW) salinity represents effluents from the ...
Concurrent adsorption of cationic and anionic dyes from environmental water on amine functionalized carbon
(
IWA Publishing
, 2020 , Article)
Amine functionalized carbon (AFC) was synthesized from raw oil fly ash and later utilized it for simultaneous removal of methyl orange (MO) and rhodamine 6G (Rh6G) pollutant dyes from aqueous medium. AFC was analyzed through ...
