Studying the Potential of Calcite Dissolution on Oil Liberation from Rock Surfaces during Single-Well-Chemical-Tracer Tests by Coupling a Multiphase Flow Simulator to the Geochemical Package
Author(s): Khaledialidusti R and Kleppe JKhaledialidusti R and Kleppe J
Calcite mineral dissolution has been considered to be an important mechanism for dampening the considerable pH-variation during Single-Well-Chemical-Tracer (SWCT) tests by improving the buffer capacity of the aqueous solution. Other parameters that also could have a great effect on the geochemistry of the reservoir during the SWCT tests are water buffer capacity, soluble hydrocarbon components, and temperature. Additionally, calcite mineral dissolution has been also presented over the last decade as an underlying mechanism for liberation of the adsorbed oil from the surface by modified salinity water injection (MSWI) in carbonate reservoirs. This contradiction of effects of calcite dissolution might pose a challenge for the accuracy of the SWCT tests in carbonates. This concern motivated us to highlight the potential of the calcite dissolution on the oil liberation from the .. View More»
