Abstract:Unfavorable mobility ratios in heterogeneous
reservoirs have resulted
in progressively poor waterflood sweep efficiency and diminishing
production. In order to address this issue, our study has developed
amphiphilic-structured nanoparticles aimed at enhancing the microscopic
displacement capability and oil displacement efficiency. First, the
transport process of Janus nanoparticles in porous media was investigated.
During the water flooding, Janus nanoparticle injection, and subsequent
water flooding stages, t… Show more
