EXPERIMENTAL STUDY ON PERMEABILITY REDUCTION DURING CARBON DIOXIDE (C02) INJECTION DUE TO ASPHALTENE PRECIPITATION IN LIGHT OIL

This study will concentrate on experimental analysis through coreflood tests to evaluate the asphaltene precipitation and permeability reduction. The dead Dulang reservoir oil and sandstone rocks are used as porous media during conducting the experiment. A systematic approach is presented for dia...

Description
Summary:This study will concentrate on experimental analysis through coreflood tests to evaluate the asphaltene precipitation and permeability reduction. The dead Dulang reservoir oil and sandstone rocks are used as porous media during conducting the experiment. A systematic approach is presented for diagnosing the findings in order to verify that oil permeability will be reduced in the present of asphaltene precipitation in light oil reservoir.
