CO2 is said to be one of the most important greenhouse gas that causes global warming. The most common sources of CO2 emission into the atmosphere are fossil fueled power plants. With the increasing demand of energy in ...

To comprehend the mechanism of seismic vibration technique used as an external excitation method in the oil production industry, a three dimensional wave model was developed based on Biot’s theory (1956a, b) for describing ...

There are tremendous heavy oil and bitumen resources in Canada, and most of them are located in the Western Canadian Sedimentary Basin. Thermal-based recovery techniques, such as steam flooding, cyclic steam stimulation ...

This research attempts to study the mobilization of an oil drop, also known as a \slug", via the aid of a water film. This differs from other work in this area wherein the oil drop is forced through the throat of a pore ...

CO2 has been found to be an efficient agent for recovering heavy oil resources worldwide through an immiscible displacement process. One major disadvantage of CO2 immiscible process is the limited solubility of CO2 in ...
