Nowadays, brines are not simply regarded as tools for pressure support in reservoirs. Their chemical properties have also been taken into consideration. Chemicals in the brines can alter the rock brine and oil interactions in a favorable way to improve oil recovery. Studies have focused on the determination of such chemicals leading to wettability change and their proper compositions in brine samples. In this study, the properties of brine samples utilization, which can lead to improvement in oil recovery from carbonates, were tried to be determined using wettability measurements.

A study of steam-assisted gravity drainage performance in the presence of noncondensable gases
Canbolat, Serhat; Akın, Serhat; Kovscek, Anthony R. (null; 2002-12-01)
Traditionally, the addition of a non-condensable gas to steam is known to have a beneficial effect on heavy-oil production when conventional vertical wells are used. Little information and experimental evidence exists regarding the effect of the addition of such gases in the steam assisted gravity drainage (SAGD) process. The limited literature suggests that the addition of small amounts of such gases (e.g., carbon dioxide) may improve oil recovery. The gas accumulates at the top of the reservoir and provid...
A hydrodynamic model developed for the condensate flowing over a sinusoidal fluted tube
Gökçe, Hüseyin; Özgen, Canan (Elsevier BV, 1987-9)
Fluted tubes which were designed by Gregorig considering the use of surface tension forces are commonly used in evaporators and condensers for desalination purposes. In this study the surface profile of a fluted tube, which cannot be described by any conventional coordinate system is obtained numerically by using an intrinsic-coordinate system. Navier-Stokes equations are solved after some simplifications for the condensate flowing over the sinusoidal fluted profile to find the volumetric flow rate. The res...
A Numerical Study on the Behaviour of Suction Bucket Foundations for Offshore Wind Turbines under Cyclic Loading
Yılmaz, Seyit Alp; Bakır, Bahadır Sadık; Taşan, Hacı Ercan; Department of Civil Engineering (2021-5-24)
Suction bucket foundations simply consist of a cylinder skirt and a top plate, usually made of steel and installed by the assist of suction are a relatively new and economically favorable solution for offshore wind turbines which are exposed to high lateral loads from winds and waves both of which have cyclic characteristic. Understanding the behaviour under the effect of complex cyclic load environment is essential to assess the design requirements of bucket foundations. Deformations and pore pressures may...
A Comparative study of cuttings transport performance of water versus polymer-based fluids in horizontal well drilling
Allahvirdizadeh, Payam; Parlaktuna, Mahmut; Kuru, Ergun; Department of Petroleum and Natural Gas Engineering (2015)
High drilling fluid circulation rate is often needed for effective transportation of cuttings in horizontal and extended reach wells, which may not be always achievable due to the risk of fracturing the rock by increased bottom hole dynamic pressure and also limit of pumps capacity. Keeping the bottom hole pressure low enough while increasing the flow rate is, therefore, a major challenge in horizontal well drilling operations. A potential solution to this problem would be to use drag reducing additives in ...
A Study on Tensile Strength of Compacted Fine-Grained Soils
Dagar, Volkan; Çokça, Erdal (Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 2020-08-01)
The tensile strength of clay is a major mechanical parameter and the main controlling parameter of tensile crack development which is generally encountered in geostructures. In this experimental study, 8-shaped direct tensile test and split tensile test were used to measure the tensile strength of compacted clay soil. Unconfined compression tests on the same clay samples were also carried out. Tensile strength and unconfined compression test results were compared. Laboratory tests were performed on Ankara c...
