Effect of different surfactant structures on the brine-crude oil and brine-alkane interface in different aqueous environments.
(Master thesis, 2017-06-16)In producing oil fields, both the production rate and ultimate recovery from the field can be enhanced by injection of chemicals into the reservoir formation. To optimise the commercial benefits, it is important to understand ... -
An investigation of the correlation between interfacial properties and phase composition in the crude oil/water system
(Master thesis, 2015-12-01)Enhanced oil recovery can be obtained by flooding the reservoir with chemical fluids. However, complex interactions between the crude oil components, floodwater composition and reservoir rock minerology have to be comprehended ... -
Spawning during an oil spill: how exposure to the water-accommodated fraction of crude oil may disrupt polar cod (Boreogadus saida) reproduction
(Master thesis, 2020-07-01)Declining ice cover in the Arctic has made it possible to extract oil reserves in areas that were once unreachable. However, all oil exploration comes with an inherent risk of spills. Conditions in the Arctic may increase ...
