Resumen

En esta investigación, se intenta detallar el efecto de los nanofluidos basados en nanohíbridos MWCNT-SiO2 para la mejora de la humedad de agua de la roca de yacimiento y la reducción de la tensión interfacial entre la inyección de nanofluido y el aceite de yacimiento. Se ha demostrado experimentalmente que el Nano-Alternating-Gas (NAG) tiene la capacidad de mejorar tanto la humectabilidad como la tensión interfacial (IFT) para aumentar el factor de recuperación del depósito de aceite Asmari.
