This book was released on 2013-11-21 with total page 307 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Masters Theses in the Pure and Applied Sciences was first conceived, published, and dis· seminated by the Center for Information and Numerical Data Analysis and Synthesis (CINDAS) *at Purdue University in 1957, starting its coverage of theses with the academic year 1955. Beginning with Volume 13, the printing and dissemination phases of the ac· tivity were transferred to University Microfilms/Xerox of Ann Arbor, Michigan, with the thought that such an arrangement would be more beneficial to the academic and general scientific and technical community. After five years of this joint undertaking we had concluded that it was in the interest of all concerned if the printing and distribution of the volume were handled by an international publishing house to assure improved service and broader dissemination. Hence, starting with Volume 18, Masters Theses in the Pure and Applied Sciences has been disseminated on a worldwide basis by Plenum Publishing Corporation of New York, and in the same year the coverage was broadened to include Canadian universities. All back issues can also be ordered from Plenum. We have reported in Volume 20 (thesis year 1975) a total of 10,374 theses titles from 28 Canadian and 239 United States universities. We are sure that this broader base for theses titles reported will greatly enhance the value of this important annual reference work. The organization of Volume 20 is identical to that of past years. It consists of theses titles arranged by discipline and by university within each discipline.

This book was released on 2017 with total page 180 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Increasing the oil recovery factor from existing fields is the key towards meeting future oil demand. The injection of solvents, an established EOR technique, has shown significant improvement in oil recovery over conventional water floods. However, the injection of pure solvent slugs can be quite costly for field operators. To mitigate this problem, recent literature has suggested the use of brines that are saturated with mutual solvents (dissolve in both oil and water) such as Carbon Dioxide (CO2) and Dimethyl Ether (DME). This practice minimizes the amount of used solvent since it is governed by its limited solubility in water. The solubility of CO2 and DME is much higher in oil than in water. Therefore, a mass transfer takes place once CO2 or DME saturated brines come into contact with oil. As these solvents go into the oil phase, they promote oil swelling and reduce the oil viscosity, thereby making it movable and increasing the oil recovery as a result. Although there has been recent lab work performed with this EOR method, most of the work performed so far involved short cores, high injection rates and in some cases limited to sandstone cores. In this thesis, we investigated the effect of using brines that were saturated with CO2 and Diethyl ether (DEE) on oil recovery. The results came out to be mixed and not completely in line with previous literature for CO2 rich brine (Carbonated Water). Injecting carbonated water into sandstone cores did not improve the oil recovery. However, there was an improvement in oil recovery as a result of carbonated water injection in carbonate cores, which also displayed effluent line plugging. For the case of DEE-rich brine, there was a noticeable improvement in oil recovery but it took more pore volumes to have an effect in comparison to DME-rich brine literature results. The experimental work was further supplemented with numerical modeling. The simulator was not able to capture the effects of carbonated water observed in the experiment, due to the absence of rock–fluid interaction in the modeling mechanism. In contrast, the DEE rich brine case was successfully matched with the compositional simulator since it did not involve rock reactions and was strictly based on fluid–fluid interactions

Download or read book Carbon Dioxide Enhanced Oil Recovery from the Citronelle Oil Field and Carbon Sequestration in the Donovan Sand Southwest Alabama written by Konstantinos Theodorou and published by . This book was released on 2013 with total page 205 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Capturing carbon dioxide (CO2) from stationary sources and injecting it into deep underground geologic formations has been identified as a viable method for reducing carbon emissions to the atmosphere. Sedimentary rocks, such as sandstones overlain by shales or evaporites, are the preferred formations because their morphology and structure provide pore space, and containment for the long term storage of CO2. Sandstone formations have also served as repositories to migrating hydrocarbons, and are the sites of many oil recovery operations. For many depleted oil reservoirs, secondary waterflooding recovery methods are no longer efficient or economically viable, hence the application of tertiary CO2 enhanced oil recovery (CO2-EOR) followed by CO2 storage is an attractive and cost effective business plan. Citronelle Oil Field, located in southwest Alabama, is the largest and longest producing sandstone oil reservoir in the state, having produced more than 170 million barrels of oil from its estimated 500 million barrels of original oil in place, since its discovery in 1955. The field is in the later stages of secondary recovery by waterflooding and daily oil production has declined considerably. The field is comprised of the Upper and Lower Donovan hydrocarbon bearing sandstones, which are separated by the saline-water-bearing sandstones of the Middle Donovan. The Ferry Lake Anhydrite, which overlies the three sections, serves as their caprock. The present work is focused on an investigation of the feasibility of a CO2-EOR project for the Citronelle Oil Field and the use of the Middle Donovan for long term CO2 storage. A set of static calculations, based on estimation methods which were retrieved from publications in the field, was followed by computer simulations using MASTER 3.0, TOUGH2-ECO2N, and TOUGHREACT. Results using MASTER 3.0, for simulation of CO2-EOR, indicated that nearly 50 million barrels of additional oil could be produced by tertiary recovery. Results using TOUGH2-ECO2N and TOUGHREACT, for the simulations of CO2 storage, indicated that 159 million metric tons (175 short tons) of CO2 could be stored in the Middle Donovan formation. An investigation into possible CO2 leakage from the reservoirs indicated that the Ferry Lake Anhydrite serves as a very reliable long term storage seal. The present work can serve as a template for preliminary assessment of tertiary oil recovery and CO2 storage of similar oil reservoirs and saline-water formations.
