Carbonate rocks are considered to be essential reservoirs for human development, but known highly heterogeneous and difficult fully characterize. To better understand carbonate systems, studying pore-scale is needed. For this purpose, three blocks of (chalk, enthrocal limestone, dolomite) were cored into 30 samples with diameters 18 mm lengths 25 mm. They characterized from pore core scale labo...

In this paper we describe a technique based on radio frequency plasma treatment in H2O vapour to reproducibly clean and modify the surface energy of clastic and carbonate core material allowing the establishment of well defined wettability conditions. We present micro-tomographic observations of the pore-scale fluid distributions in strongly water wet clastic and carbonate cores. We then establ...

nowadays, by complication of production mechanisms from reservoirs and depletion of most of the reservoirs in iran, secondary production has become more important. regarding the nature of iranian reservoirs and carbonate inherencies and diagenetic and tectonic effects on these reservoirs, we see heterogeneities in them which cause uncertainty in predictions and performance of these reservoirs. ...

Previous studies have shown that seawater may alter the wettability in the direction of more water-wet conditions in carbonate reservoirs. The reason for this is that ions from the salt (sulphat, magnesium, calsium, etc) can create a wettability alteration toward more water-wet conditions as salt is absorbed on the rock. In order to initiate a more systematic study of this phenomenon a 1-D math...

Recycle-gas injection is a promising recovery process to produce oil and gas. The method uses continues injection of the produced gas at economical rates to keep the reservoirs energy up and using viscous force as the driving force. There are numerous studies done on recycle-gas injection in conventional reservoirs, however, there are some other factors such as location of wells and completion ...

RATIONALE The measurement of multiply substituted isotopologues of CO2 derived from carbonate has allowed the reconstruction of paleotemperatures from a single phase (CaCO3 ), circumventing uncertainty inherent in other isotopic paleothermometers. Traditional analytical techniques require relatively large amounts of carbonate (3-8 mg per replicate), which limits the applicability of the clumped...

The article considers the issue of reducing the influence of clayless mud components on the filtration parameters of the reservoir. In the composition of such solutions, calcium carbonate of various fractions is often added as a weighting and colmatizing additive. It is generally accepted that weighting bridging agents are sufficiently inert substances and their addition does not affect the rhe...
