Sheng J. Enhanced Oil Recovery Field Case Studies 2013 Rep torrent

Textbook in PDF format

Enhanced Oil Recovery (EOR) Field Case Studies bridges the gap between theory and practice in a range of real-world EOR settings. Areas covered include steam and polymer flooding, use of foam, in situ combustion, microorganisms, "smart water"-based EOR in carbonates and sandstones, and many more. Oil industry professionals know that the key to a successful enhanced oil recovery project lies in anticipating the differences between plans and the realities found in the field. This book aids that effort, providing valuable case studies from more than 250 EOR pilot and field applications in a variety of oil fields. The case studies cover practical problems, underlying theoretical and modeling methods, operational parameters, solutions and sensitivity studies, and performance optimization strategies, benefitting academicians and oil company practitioners alike.
The book collects experience from all sources of information. In particular, the personal field experience and the extensive research knowledge from the experts in different EOR areas are summarized here, in addition to their collection from literature and other sources. Based on the recent developments, this book outlines the most recent techniques in EOR. The fundamentals of EOR methods are briefly presented as well. This strikes an ideal balance between project design, theory, and EOR field practices.
The book covers all EOR areas: gas injection, chemical flooding, thermal recovery, and microbial EOR. However, it is not feasible to include all the field cases in a single book. Efforts have been made to discuss the main lessons and experience from important field projects. Overall field experience and practices are summarized from published or authors’ own survey work.
Key Features:
- Strikes an ideal balance between theory and practice;
- Focuses on practical problems, underlying theoretical and modeling methods, and operational parameters;
- Designed for technical professionals, covering the fundamental as well as the advanced aspects of EOR.
