Comparison of selective simultaneous water alternating gas nitrogen (SSWAG (N2)) between sandstone and carbonate reservoirs (An experimental study)

Comparison of selective simultaneous water alternating gas nitrogen (SSWAG (N2)) between sandstone and carbonate reservoirs (An experimental study)

The method selective simultaneous water alternating gas SSWAG is an enhanced oil recovery process. According to Nitrogen injection reservoir criteria, there are two rock types of reservoir that are suitable for nitrogen injection. Sandstone and carbonate are strongly advised in literature review; t...
