Utilization of egg yolk as a non-toxic emulsifier in environmentally friendly invert emulsion drilling mud (2016)
Journal Article
Ihenacho, P., Burby, M., Nasr, G., & Enyi, G. (2016). Utilization of egg yolk as a non-toxic emulsifier in environmentally friendly invert emulsion drilling mud. Journal of petroleum engineering & technology (Online), 6(1),

Vegetable oil such as Jatropha has been shown to be a comparable alternative to diesel and mineral oils for environmentally friendly oil based drilling mud. However compatibility of the vegetable oils with the usual chemical additives is still a majo...

The effects of dissolved Sodium Chloride (NaCl) on well injectivity during CO2 storage into saline aquifers (2016)
Journal Article
Beinashor, R., Nourian, A., Nasr, G., & Enyi, G. (2016). The effects of dissolved Sodium Chloride (NaCl) on well injectivity during CO2 storage into saline aquifers. Journal of petroleum engineering & technology (Online), 6(2),

Saline aquifer formations seem to be promising candidates for carbon dioxide (CO2) storage due to their wide availability as well they have large storage capacity. Once CO2 is injected into saline aquifer variety of processes will take place, among o...

50/50 oil-water ratio invert emulsion drilling mud using vegetable oil as continuous phase (2016)
Journal Article
Ihenacho, P., Burby, M., Nasr, G., & Enyi, G. (2016). 50/50 oil-water ratio invert emulsion drilling mud using vegetable oil as continuous phase

Formulation of a low oil-water ratio drilling mud with vegetable oil continuous phase without adversely affecting the mud rheology and stability has been a major challenge. A low oil-water ratio is beneficial in producing low fluid loss which is esse... Read More about 50/50 oil-water ratio invert emulsion drilling mud using vegetable oil as continuous phase.
