Hydrocarbons are produced from the ground to the surface via natural reservoir drive energy. However, a substantial amount of hydrocarbons still remain trapped in the reservoir. Enhanced oil recovery (EOR) method has been introduced to recover the remaining trapped oils. EOR is a method to enhance the displacement efficiency of the crude oil. These...

The synergy of alkaline, surfactant and polymer has revealed the potential of alkaline-surfactant-polymer (ASP) flooding as the most promising chemical Enhanced Oil Recovery (EOR) method. The synergistic interactions between the chemicals with reservoir rock and fluids could change the environment in porous media, which have potential effects on st...

Downhole monitoring using streaming potential measurement has been developing in order to respond to actual reservoir condition. Most studies have emphasized on monitoring water flooding at various reservoir condition and improving the approaches of measurement. Enhanced Oil Recovery (EOR) could significantly improve oil recovery and the efficiency...

TThe filter cake removal is of primary concern in a horizontal oil producer. It has been highlighted in many publications that the cleanup process in long horizontal and multilateral wells is a challenging task. Many chemical solutions have been used to remove the polymeric and bridging agents in oil producers. Due to their nonspecific characterist...
