This program aids in shortlisting polymer-low salinity water formulations for UAE carbonate reservoirs. Determining polymer rheology and viscosity as a function of polymer concentration, polymer MW, and low salinity water composition is expected. This is further supported by microfluidic experiments on the role of viscoelasticity in mobilization of residual oil saturations.
Students are expected to run polymer rheological tests for different water compositions and support their results with microfluidic experiments.
Interest in experimental work and previous experience are preferred.
Data confidentiality is a must.
