摘要:
The invention relates to an improved method for injecting and transporting small particles in a natural porous medium. The method is characterized in that, in a first step, the porous medium is conditioned by means of an aqueous solution containing a hydrocarbonaceous compound, polymers or surface-active agents, in a second step, a plug of suspended particles is injected in the aqueous medium containing at least one hydrocarbonaceous compound, polymer or surface-active agent and, in a third step, the plug of particles is pushed by an appropriate aqueous medium. The method is particularly useful for implantation of bacteria in a porous medium.
摘要:
Compositions and methods are given to prevent, alleviate and remedy water blocks and gas blocks (condensate block or condensate banking). Wettability modifiers are contacted with the formation to change the surfaces from water wet or oil wet to intermediate wet or gas wet. Preferred wettability modifiers include partially or completely fluorinated surfactants or polymers, for example fluorosilanes such as perfluorosilanes, urethane oligomers containing perfluoro alkyl moieties, fluoroacrylates, and fluoroalkyl containing terpolymers or their mixtures. Other examples include surfactants, for example viscoelastic surfactants such as cationic surfactants such as quaternary amines, and zwitterionic surfactants, such as betaines, optionally mixed with co-surfactants.
摘要:
Film-forming bitumen-in-water mixed emulsions comprising intimate immixture of (i) an oil-in-water emulsion of a hard bituminous material and (ii) an oil-in-water emulsion of a soft bituminous material, are well suited for the production of storage-stable coated particulates, notably cold dense building and paving materials such as aggregate and gravel, useful for the construction of, e.g., road and highway surfaces via compaction thereof.
