Characteristic features of shale barrier materials
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Deep wells in soft formations are completed with a steel tube (“casing”) that isolates the well from the surrounding rock. The annulus between the casing and the rock is usually left open in long sections of the well, thus ... -
Experimental investigation of the development of surfactant stabilized oil-water pipe flow downstream of a choke valve
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)In wells and multiphase flowlines the presence of valves, pumps and other complex geometries will considerable contribute to dispersion of the phases. In combination with the droplet stabilizing effect of natural surfactants ... -
Joint well-placement and well-control optimization for energy-efficient water flooding of oil fields
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Hydrocarbon production driven by water flooding is energy-intensive. This paper presents well-placement and joint well-placement-and-control optimization studies with objective function taking into account emissions, ... -
Literature review on surface-active components in emulsions and foams: Theory and modelling efforts
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)In this paper we present a literature review on the role of surface-active components in emulsions and foams. Models are presently unable to accurately predict scenarios involving multiphase flows with complex chemistry, ...
