Thesis
SANAEE, R. 2015. Geomechanically coupled modelling of fluid flow partitioning in fractured porous media. Robert Gordon University, PhD thesis. Hosted on OpenAIR [online]. Available from: https://doi.org/10.48526/rgu-wt-2048927

Naturally fractured reservoirs are characterised with complex hydro-mechanical dynamics. In these reservoirs, hydrocarbons can be stored and produced from the rock matrix, the fracture network, or both. Normally the fracture network is depleted much...

Flow partitioning in fractured reservoirs especially during injection and production operations poses a great challenge to the optimisation of these important field operations. For example, flow partitioning into the fracture from the matrix may limi... Read More about Injection behaviour of fractured reservoirs at near wellbore and far field areas: a CFD study..

Cold heavy oil production using CO2-EOR technique. (2014)
Thesis
TCHAMBAK, E.N. 2014. Cold heavy oil production using CO2-EOR technique. Robert Gordon University, PhD thesis.

This thesis presents results of a successful simulation study using the CO2-EOR technique to enable production from an offshore heavy oil field, named here as Omega, which is located offshore West Africa at a water depth around 2000 m. The findings a... Read More about Cold heavy oil production using CO2-EOR technique..
