Journal Article
MAHON, R., BALOGUN, Y., OLUYEMI, G., and NJUGUNA, J. 2021. Correction to: Swelling performance of sodium polyacrylate and poly(acrylamide-co-acrylic acid) potassium salt. SN applied sciences [online], 3(8), article 756. Available from: https://doi.org/10.1007/s42452-021-04654-w

The original version of this Article contained an error of judgement in the inclusion of the names of the polymers and their application. The names of the polymers and their application were included, however, due to potential issues relating to conf...

Experimental investigation of the displacement flow mechanism and oil recovery in primary polymer flood operations. (2021)
Journal Article
MAHON, R., OLUYEMI, G., OYENEYIN, B. and BALOGUN, Y. 2021. Experimental investigation of the displacement flow mechanism and oil recovery in primary polymer flood operations. SN applied sciences [online], 3(5), article 557. Available from: https://doi.org/10.1007/s42452-021-04360-7

Polymer flooding is a mature chemical enhanced oil recovery method employed in oilfields at pilot testing and field scales. Although results from these applications empirically demonstrate the higher displacement efficiency of polymer flooding over w...

Experimental investigation of the effect of temperature on two-phase oil-water relative permeability. (2021)
Journal Article
BALOGUN, Y., IYI, D., FAISAL, N., OYENEYIN, B., OLUYEMI, G. and MAHON, R. 2021. Experimental investigation of the effect of temperature on two-phase oil-water relative permeability. Journal of petroleum science and engineering [online], 203, article ID 108645. Available from: https://doi.org/10.1016/j.petrol.2021.108645

Relative permeability is affected by several flow parameters, mainly the operating temperature and fluid viscosity. Fluid viscosities change with temperature, which correspondingly affects the relative permeability. Temperature is believed to have a...

Numerical modelling of the effect of wettability, interfacial tension and temperature on oil recovery at pore-scale level. (2021)
Journal Article
IYI, D., BALOGUN, Y., OYENEYIN, B. and FAISAL, N. 2021. Numerical modelling of the effect of wettability, interfacial tension and temperature on oil recovery at pore-scale level. Journal of petroleum science and engineering [online], 201, article ID 108453. Available from: https://doi.org/10.1016/j.petrol.2021.108453

A numerical investigation into the effect of wettability and temperature on oil recovery with a hot water injection at different temperatures is reported in this paper. The computational domain is a two-dimensional porous medium (reservoir) maintaine...
