A very low interfacial tension, γ, can be achieved between an oil phase and an aqueous solution containing anionic surfactant and salt at...
A thermodynamic model to predict three phase (L-H-V and I-H-V) equilibria of gas hydrates is presented. In this model we have employed a f...
In this study, eight ionic liquids (ILs) from the two varieties of ILs, namely, aromatic and aliphatic ILs, have been considered to carr...
Solidified natural gas (SNG) in the form of clathrate hydrates has been considered one of the most promising technologies for natural gas ...
The present work investigates the reaction kinetics of biodegradation of waxy crude oil using Bacillus subtilis YB7, a ther...
Depleted matured reservoirs contain almost two-thirds trapped oil, which remains unrecovered even after primary and secondary oil recovery...
Interfacial tension between hydrocarbon liquids and salt water is a very important property for many industrial applications, especiall...
Most of the onshore and offshore oil and gas reservoirs are facing operational challenges due to high temperature and high salinity, thus ...
Gas hydrates of CO2 in the presence of tetra‐n‐alkyl ammonium bromide (TBAB) and tetrahydrofuran (THF) show potential applications fo...
The production, processing, and transportation of heavy crude oil (HCO) is difficult because of its high viscosity. For practical applicat...
Microorganisms play an important role in the formation of methane hydrate in subsea environment. Studies involving the effect of biosur...
The reduction in interfacial tension (IFT) of paraffin crude oil is of key importance, particularly for oilfield applications such as...
Conventional rheometers with concentric cylinder geometries do not enhance mixing in situ and thus are not suitable for rheological stud...
In this article, we synthesize and investigate the rheological properties of a random copolymer PAM‐ran‐PAH of polyacrylamide (PAM) an...
Matured reservoirs are being targeted for enhanced oil recovery (EOR) operations in the hope to recover the residual oil that remains trap...
The viscosity of the oil-in-water or water-in-oil depends on the water-cut (WC) present in the system. At a certain WC, the water-crude oi...
Most of the crude oil reservoirs in the world are getting matured leading to the increased production and deposition of long chain paraffi...
Oil production from matured crude oil reservoirs is still associated with low recovery factors. Chemical enhanced oil recovery (EOR) is on...
The kinetics of methane gas hydrate under confined environment in porous mediahave been studied for understanding the formation...
Tetra-n-butyl ammonium bromide (TBAB) and tetrahydrofuran (THF) are being widely used in gas hydrate research for their potential to store...
