Asphaltene transformation and agglomeration in compressed light oil systems under carbon dioxide injection in a porous structure: A molecular dynamics study

The rising depletion of light fossil fuels is leading to an increasing global dependence on heavy oil production. Asphaltene deposition poses a significant challenge in the application of improved oil recovery by CO2 injection, adversely affecting reservoir permeability and extraction efficiency. De...
