Influence of the geological and geochemical characteristics of heavy oils on their recovery | 1987 | oil buoyancy; heavy oils; Likouala oil field; Emeraude oil field; water washing; oil saturation; biodegradation | The migration of an oil into a trap is governed by its buoyancy, the capillary pressure, and the hydrodynamic forces. For heavy oils the buoyancy is low; therefore, they can only saturate high-permeability zones, which are also preferentially swept by steam in a steam-drive recovery operation. Howev... |

Lessons learned from transient analysis of combustion equipment in the process industries | | | During gas flare operation, hydrocarbon gas is fed through a flare stack and ignited by a pilot. During the ignition process, flares generally produce significant amounts of smoke (see Figure 1) since enough mixing energy is not available to entrain surrounding air to completely burn the flare gas. ... |
