Abstract:CO2 flooding is essential for significantly enhancing oil recoveries and long‐term CO2 storage. We performed CO2 flooding experiments on target tight cores obtained from Honghe oilfield to investigate the water–rock interaction during CO2 flooding. In addition, we investigate the impact of mineralization and CO2 injection patterns on the sweep efficiency and CO2 long‐term storage using numerical simulations. Results show target core samples are composed of calcite, quartz, Na‐feldspar, and K‐feldspar. In parti… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
