UNCOVER - Understanding of CO2 dissolution in oil by convection-driving mixing and wettability alteration
Amarasinghe et al. (2020)
Project UNCOVER has focused on experimental investigation and visualization of CO2 mixing with reservoir fluids (water and oil). Many experiments available in the literature have been conducted using surrogate fluids or using CO2 at room conditions. Furthermore, visual investigation of CO2 mixing with oil is very limited. Hence, we have designed and carried out a series of experiments to visualize CO2 mixing in water and oil (both individually and together) with and without presence of the porous media.
