Description
Core-flooding of clay-containing reservoir sandstones can yield substantial tertiary recovery by reducing the flood brine salinity, associated with a shift toward water-wetting. Spontaneous imbibition experiments, in which this salinity-induced shift is the main driver for additional recovery, can provide insight into the extent and source of the wettability change, especially when combined with pore-scale imaging of changes in residual oil configurations using micro-CT. Spontaneous imbibition...[Show more]
