- W2954080220 abstract "The reservoir engineer's objective is to produce from oil and gas reservoirs with thehighest economical recovery factor. For this reason, Enhanced Oil Recovery (EOR)methods were developed. EOR methods can increase field recovery factor and prolongfield life, thus improving its economic value (E.Manrique and !.Wright, 2005). One ofEOR methods that is becoming favourable is miscible displacement. For this method,there are a range of gasses suitable for miscible displacement (e.g. Propane andMethane), however, Carbon Dioxide (C02) is most commonly used due to availabilityand less expensive than Liquefied Petroleum Gas (LPG). C02 can also reduce the oil'sviscosity.In miscible displacement, one of the most important parameters that need to beinvestigated is minimum miscibility pressure (MMP). This is the pressure where thecrude oil and C02 gas will become miscible. MMP can be affected by wax content,however to an unknown degree. Waxy oil constitutes that the oil has paraffin content init. After weighing the options, experimental work was chosen to determine MMP of oilsamples and the effects of wax content on C02 MMP; and a technique called theVanishing Interfacial Tension (VIT) will be employed. The basic principal of thistechnique is that when MMP is achieved, the IFT between C02 and oil will becomezero. Several oil samples with varying wax content have been experimented to obtainthe pressure at which the IFT approaches zero, also known as MMP.5 samples were concocted for the experiment. However, the experiment failed to obtainone of the sample's MMP due to technical difficulties. MMP for the following sampleswere obtained; 3446 psi, 3706 psi, 3391 psi and 3332 psi for 5%, 15%, 20% and 25%wax content respectively. As noted from 5% and 15%, the MMP increases, howeverfrom 15% to 25%, it suddenly decreases. The theory is that there may be insufficientpoints to extrapolate because of equipment safety limitations. From the experiments, it isconcluded that with increasing wax content, the MMP will also increase." @default.
