Study of Physical and Chemical Properties of Heavy Waxy Crude Oil from Cambay Basin Using Rheometer and Cross-Polar Microscope
Abstract: Production of heavy crude is quite difficult as the pressure drops from reservoir to production facility are quite large. This often leads to the precipitation and deposition of common organic solids (paraffin). These solids may deposit on surfaces, collect in low-energy regions or increase the effective viscosity of the flowing fluid. The net effect is an increase in pressure drop for a given rate through reduction in flowing area or …

Contemplation of Coal Bed Methane in Petroleum Industry
Abstract: The hunger for energy has been on its peak since industrialization. The human race has been trying all hook and crook in order to discover new sources of energy. In today’s world, a minor portion of the energy requirement basket is being filled up by unconventional non-hydrocarbon resources but still the majority of it is filled by unconventional and conventional hydrocarbon resources. The conventional hydrocarbon resources are oil and natural …

Designing Methodology for Identifying Different Types of Influx Entering in a Well Bore during Drilling and Study of Influx Behavior
Abstract: Drillers frequently encounter kick in drilling operations. Kick refers to the unwanted entry of formation fluid into the well bore. Primary well control and secondary well control are used to control influx entry into a well during drilling operations. Primary well control refers to making the overbalance by the hydrostatic pressure exerted by drilling fluid on the formation pressure. Secondary well control refers to controlling the kick through the use …

Relative Permeability Study in Part of Geleki Oil field of Upper Assam Basin
Abstract: Relative permeability is a critical parameter for evaluation of reservoir performance. Relative permeability is a direct measure of the ability of the porous medium to allow flow of one fluid when two or more fluids are present. This flow property is the composite effect of pore-geometry, wettability, fluid saturation, saturation history, reservoir temperature, reservoir pressure, overburden pressure, rock-types, porosity and permeability types. The relative permeability curves are very important in …
