Comprehensive experimental study of multivariable oil–brine–rock interactions: impact of brine–rock chemistry and crude oil polarity on enhanced oil recovery in carbonate reservoirs

Abstract Reservoir wettability alteration is a vital method for enhancing oil recovery, especially at the pore scale, where it plays a key role in optimizing extraction and minimizing risks from chemical and water flooding. Among different mechanisms, surface charge stands out as a promising and pra...
