Optimizing nanoparticle selection for enhanced oil recovery in carbonate rock using hybrid low salinity water flooding by Sunlee Han, Youngsoo Lee

“…By evaluating four injection fluids—deionized (DI) water/SiO2, DI/Al2O3, low salinity water (LSW)/SiO2, and LSW/Al2O3—this research systematically examines their effects on rock surface wettability and interfacial tension. The findings reveal a key finding: the LSW/NP flooding process effectively balances NP-induced plugging and rock dissolution, thereby maintaining the pore structure integrity of carbonate rocks. …”
