Investigating the Dispersion Phenomenon in Fluid Flow through Porous Media Using Percolation Theory, M.Sc. Thesis Sharif University of Technology ; Masihi, Mohsen (Supervisor) ; Ganjeh Ghazvini, Mostafa (Co-Advisor)
Abstract
Many processes in the petroleum engineering industry involve particle transport in oil and gas reservoirs including sand production, fines migration, and nanoparticle injection. In these processes it is important to understand where the particles are travelling in the reservoir and the impact that they have on the formation properties. Large particles can damage the formation and decrease permeability which reduces the productive capacity of the reservoir. During nanoparticle injection, forces at the pore level can cause retention of particles and prevent their recovery. In addition, due to the heterogeneity of typical reservoirs, it is difficult to predict how particles will spread across...
