3D-printed synthetic core plugs: Advancing laboratory simulations for enhanced oil recovery

Synthetic core plugs are critical for petrophysical and enhanced oil recovery (EOR) studies, as natural cores are expensive, scarce, and heterogeneous. This study investigates whether 3D-printed synthetic cores can replicate the wettability, permeability, and fluid displacement efficiency of natural...
