Some aspects of the use of carbon nanotubes for enhanced oil recovery

Abstract

In the presented work, the effect of modified carbon nanotubes on various reagents used to increase the oil recovery factor (ORF) was studied. It was found that nanotubes contribute to the stabilization of the foam in the studied reagents, which had a positive effect on the increase in the recovery factor. Keywords: nanotechnologies; enhanced oil displacement, carbon nanotubes.
