With the development of domestic petroleum exploitation, the water cut of produced liquid is up to 70%-90%, and the energy consumption of gathering and transportation in oilfields is greatly increased, which makes low-temperature transportation…
A good understanding of the interactions between the fractions of Saturates (S), Aromatics (A), Resin (R) and Asphaltenes (A) of crude oils is of great significance for in-situ combustion (ISC). However, due to the vast physiochemical diversity of…
Because the thermal release correlates directly with the success of in-situ combustion (ISC) technology, this research performs a series of investigations concerning thermal behavior and kinetics of heavy crude oil during combustion using high…
We proposed a direct in situ synthesis method for iron oxide nanoparticles (NPs) along with catalytic erformance upgrading of heavy crude oil (HCO). Our method compares the upgrading of a HCO where other iron oxide nanoparticles were synthesized by a…
Five model compounds with representative chemical structures were selected for use in simulation experiments of pyrolytic gas production. The gas production and isotopic fractionation characteristics were observed and analyzed. Then, the factors…
