Optimizing nanoparticle selection for enhanced oil recovery in carbonate rock using hybrid low salinity water flooding by Sunlee Han, Youngsoo Lee

“…Abstract This study explores the potential of SiO2 and Al2O3 nanoparticles (NPs) to enhance oil recovery in carbonate reservoirs through a novel hybrid low salinity water flooding (LSWF) approach. By evaluating four injection fluids—deionized (DI) water/SiO2, DI/Al2O3, low salinity water (LSW)/SiO2, and LSW/Al2O3—this research systematically examines their effects on rock surface wettability and interfacial tension. …”
