OSTI ID:5700962
Thermal recovery methods and well stimulation using waterflooding, steam injection, gas injection, and fluid injection techniques are discussed in this bibliography covering worldwide research. Topic areas cover fire flooding, caustic water flooding, miscible displacement, microemulsion flooding, polymer flooding, carbon dioxide miscible flooding, control of water mobility using polymers, and heat loss calculations. Reservoir modeling and simulation studies and studies pertaining to well logging, core analysis, and well perforation are included. A few abstracts discuss techniques of determining residual oil saturation, predicting oil recoverability, and monitoring the degree of flooding. (This updated bibliography contains 196 abstracts, all of which are new entries to the previous edition.)
