DESCRIPTION:
This is the first book to go through all of the major research and applications on wettability, capillary pressure and improved recovery. The petroleum industry has increased the research effort on wettability, but, so far, there has never been a comprehensive book on the topic. Critical topics including core preservation, the effect of wettability on relative permeability, surface forces such as van der Waals equation of state, petroleum traps and pore size effects are all included in this musthave handbook. The wettability of oil reservoirs is the most important factor controlling the rate of oil recovery, providing a profound effect on petroleum production. Deciphering the techniques and examples will increase the efficiency and production of oil recovery, translating to stronger reservoir simulations and improved well production.
