  • Method of assessing an oil recovery process
    Patent number: 11434758
    Abstract: An in-situ method of assessing an oil recovery process from a subsurface reservoir includes the steps of accessing the subsurface reservoir by means of a vertical or horizontal well, conducting a first test to determine a residual oil saturation, and conducting a second test to determine in-situ emulsion formation.
    Type: Grant

  • METHOD OF EXTRACTING OIL USING A FUNCTIONAL MOLECULE
    Publication number: 20210310343
    Abstract: A method of extracting oil from a subsurface reservoir includes the steps of accessing the subsurface reservoir by means of a well, injecting a waterflooding composition comprising water and a functional molecule, into the subsurface reservoir through the well, altering the interfacial viscoelasticity, and extracting the oil through the well.
