Competitive Behavior of Polar and Nonpolar Shale Oil During CO2-Induced Mobilization in Water-Bearing Nanopores
The efficiency of CO2-enhanced oil recovery (EOR) in shale reservoirs is critically influenced by formation water and the complex chemistry of the crude oil. However, the roles of components in shale oil and its underlying mechanisms are lacking. In this work, molecular dynamics simulations were performed to investig...
