• W4214935802 abstract "Summary In an era of increasing energy demand, declining oil fields, and fluctuating crude oil prices globally, most oil companies are looking forward to implementing cost-effective and environmentally sustainable enhanced oil recovery (EOR) techniques such as low salinity waterflooding (LSWF) and microbial EOR (MEOR). The present study numerically investigates the combined influence of simultaneous LSWF and microbial flooding for in-situ MEOR in tertiary mode within a sandstone core under spatiotemporally varying pH and temperature conditions. The developed black oil model consists of five major coupled submodels: nonlinear heat transport model; ion transport coupled with multiple ion exchange (MIE) involving uncomplexed cations and anions; pH variation with salinity and temperature; coupled reactive transport of injected substrates, Pseudomonas putida and produced biosurfactants with microbial maximum specific growth rate varying with temperature, salinity, and pH; relative permeability and fractional flow curve variations owing to interfacial tension (IFT) reduction and wettability alteration (WA) by LSWF and biofilm deposition. The governing equations are solved using finite difference technique. Operator splitting and bisection methods are adopted to solve the MIE-transport model. The present model is found to be numerically stable and agree well with previously published experimental and analytical results. In the proposed MIE-transport mechanism, decreasing injection water (IW) salinity from 2.52 to 0.32 M causes enhanced Ca2+ desorption rendering rock surface toward more water-wet. Consequently, oil relative permeability (kro) increases with &gt;55% reduction in water fractional flow (fw) at water saturation of 0.5 from the initial oil-wet condition. Further reducing IW salinity to 0.03 M causes Ca2+ adsorption shifting the surface wettability toward more oil-wet, thus increasing fw by 52%. Formation water (FW) salinity showed minor impact on WA with &lt;5% decrease in fw when FW salinity is reduced from 3.15 to 1.05 M. During low-salinity augmented microbial flooding (LSAMF), biosurfactant production is enhanced by &gt;63% on reducing IW salinity from 2.52 to 0.32 M with negligible increase on further reducing IW and FW salinities. This might be owing to limiting nonisothermal condition (40 to 55°C), dispersion, sorption, and microbial decay. During LSAMF, maximum biosurfactant production occurs at microbial maximum specific growth rate of 0.53 h-1, mean fluid velocity of 2.63×10-3 m h-1 and initial oil saturation of 0.6, thus resulting in significant WA, increase in kro by &gt;20%, and corresponding fw reduction by &gt;84%. Moreover, the EOR efficiency of LSAMF is marginally impacted even on increasing the minimum attainable IFT by two orders of magnitude from 10-3 to 10-1 mN m-1. Though pH increased from 8.0 to 8.9, it showed minor impact on microbial metabolism. Formation damage owing to bioplugging observed near injection point causing increase in fw by ~26% can be mitigated by adopting suitable well-stimulation strategies during the LSAMF run time. The present study is a novel attempt to show synergistic effect of LSAMF over LSWF in enhancing oil mobility and recovery at core scale by simultaneously addressing complex crude oil-brine-rock (COBR) chemistry and critical thermodynamic parameters that govern MEOR efficiency within a typical sandstone formation. The present model with relatively lower computational cost and running time improves the predictive capability to preselect potential field candidates for successful LSAMF implementation." @default.
