Experimental Analysis of Conformance Control Methods - DGMK 844
This research project is targeting conformance problems for the optimal exploitation of unmobilised mobile oil in mature oil fields by utilizing core flooding and microfluidics.
System properties at process conditions
The design and optimization of production processes shall be based on realistic data regarding fluid mixture properties under processing conditions, i.e. non-atmospheric pressures and temperatures.
Material compatibility
Investigations on the interactions between transported fluids and the pipe materials.
Shale Oil/Gas Recovery Technologies
Shales are considered a highly potential source of oil and gas. Defining a suitable production or extraction process highly depends on the geochemical and petrophysical characteristics of the shale.
Foams at elevated pressures – Interfacial rheology
Detailed and comprehensive investigations of the influences of interfacial rheology and mutual solubility as well as several material properties such as density, viscosity and interfacial tension.
