Impact of Anisotropy and Electromagnetic Modified Effect on Fluid Mobility in Reservoir Sandstone
The oil and gas sector faces challenges in optimizing oil recovery from reservoirs due to trapped oil due to interfacial tension and surface forces. Characterizing anisotropic dielectric properties is crucial. The petroleum business is quickly changing, and a massive advancement in the application of nanotechnology in this field is envisaged. Because magnetic nanoparticles (MNP) are solid, tiny, and adsorb at the oil-water interface, they might be helpful. The interaction of MNP with electromagnetic waves appears to be capable of altering interfacial tension, which will boost oil recovery. The interaction of an oscillating B-field of electromagnetic waves with magnetic domains causes energy dissipation due to a shift in magnetic anisotropy from the easy axis of magnetization. The use of anisotropy energy in mobilizing oil in a porous media has recently been investigated. BaTiO3 nanoparticles (NPs) were synthesized for this purpose, and their influence on oil mobility under electromagnetic waves (EM) was studied. The anisotropy energy was computed and determined to be 7.34kJ/mol. Under EM, the easy axis magnetization of BaTiO3 nanoparticles oscillates and changes direction continually, facilitating oil mobilization in the porous media. The EM findings for reducing interfacial tension (IFT) between oil and water ranged from 4.5mN/m to 0.89mN/m. Under EM, it was discovered that BaTiO3 nanoparticles might lower IFT by roughly 60. The IFT must be small enough to allow oil flow during mobilization. The simulation findings demonstrate that the adsorption energy of n-hexane on the surface of hematite has a 47.9 lower energy value than water. With a 115.4 percentage difference, the stress autocorrelation function of n-hexane with hematite is greater than that of water. © 2023 Trans Tech Publications Ltd, Switzerland.
