Using Low Salinity Waterflooding to Improve Oil Recovery in Naturally Fractured Reservoirs

Using Low Salinity Waterflooding to Improve Oil Recovery in Naturally Fractured Reservoirs

Low salinity waterflooding is an effective technique to accelerate and boost oil recovery. The impact of this technique has been investigated widely in laboratories for various scales and rock typing, most of which have demonstrated a potential improvement in oil recovery. This improvement has been...
