50/50 oil-water ratio invert emulsion drilling mud using vegetable oil as continuous phase (2016)
Journal Article

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.

Gas lift optimization to improve well performance (2016)
Journal Article

Gas lift optimization is becoming more important now a day in petroleum industry. A proper lift optimization can reduce the operating cost, increase the net present value (NPV) and maximize the recovery from the asset. A widely accepted definition of...

Inhibition performance of mild steel corrosion in the presence of Co2, HAc and MEG (2016)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

The formation of hydrate and scale deposition is a major challenge in the petroleum industry.To avoid corrosion and hydrate formation, monoethylene glycol (MEG) is been utilized in the pipeline as an antifreeze and anticorrosion agent. It has been ob... Read More about Inhibition performance of mild steel corrosion in the presence of Co2, HAc and MEG.

Experimental investigation of the impact of biosurfactants on residual-oil recovery (2016)
Journal Article
Ukwungwu, S., Abbas, A., & Nasr, G. (2016). Experimental investigation of the impact of biosurfactants on residual-oil recovery

The increasing high price of natural gas and oil with
attendant increase in energy demand on world markets in recent years
has stimulated interest in recovering residual oil saturation across the
globe. In order to meet the energy security, effort... Read More about Experimental investigation of the impact of biosurfactants on residual-oil recovery.

The effects of dissolved Sodium Chloride (NaCl) on well injectivity during CO2 storage into saline aquifers (2016)
Journal Article

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...
