Journal ArticleDOI
Insights into the Mechanism of Wettability Alteration by Low-Salinity Flooding (LSF) in Carbonates
Hassan Mahani,Arsene Levy Keya,Steffen Berg,W. B. Bartels,Ramez A. Nasralla,William R. Rossen +5 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors explored the mechanism leading to improved oil recovery in carbonate rock and showed that brine composition and (somewhat reduced) salinity can have a positive impact on oil recovery.
Journal ArticleDOI
Electrokinetics of Carbonate/Brine Interface in Low-Salinity Waterflooding: Effect of Brine Salinity, Composition, Rock Type, and pH on ζ-Potential and a Surface-Complexation Model
Journal ArticleDOI
Literature review of low salinity waterflooding from a length and time scale perspective
TL;DR: In this article, a review of low salinity waterflooding at the sub-pore scale is presented, where the main uncertainty lies in how results from subpore-scale experiments connect to core-scale results, which happens on the pore-network scale.
Journal ArticleDOI
Kinetics of Low-Salinity-Flooding Effect
TL;DR: In this article, the authors use a model system for sandstone rock of reduced complexity that consists of clay minerals (Na-montmorillonite) deposited on a glass substrate and covered with crude-oil droplets and in which different effects can be separated to increase their fundamental understanding.
Journal ArticleDOI
Insights into the Impact of Temperature on the Wettability Alteration by Low Salinity in Carbonate Rocks
Hassan Mahani,R.. Menezes,Steffen Berg,Ali Fadili,Ramez A. Nasralla,Denis Voskov,Vahid Joekar-Niasar +6 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the effect of brine composition and temperature on carbonate wettability was probed by monitoring contact angle change of sessile oil droplets upon switching from high salinity to lower salinity brines.
