Overview

Experiments showed nanoemulsions improved oil displacement efficiency by 10-14% in core samples, indicating strong potential for enhanced oil recovery.

Key Points

  • This research aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of low-concentration nanoemulsions containing diesel fuel for enhanced oil recovery.
  • Conducted experimental studies on low-concentration nanoemulsions.
  • Prepared stable nanoemulsions with a maximum diesel fuel concentration of 1%.
  • Studied properties including viscosity, interfacial tension, and wettability in core samples and microfluidic chips.
  • Increased emulsifier concentration reduced contact angle from 35 to 16 degrees.
  • Oil displacement efficiency improved by 22% during capillary imbibition with nanoemulsions.
  • Displacement efficiency increased from 32% for water to 57% for nanoemulsions.
