Reactive miscible displacement of light oil in porous media
Max Endo Kokubun, Negar Khoshnevis Gargar, Dan Marchesin +1
We develop a theory for the problem of high pressure air injection into deep reservoirs containing light oil. Under these conditions, the injected fluid (oxygen + inert components)…

A pore-scale study of transport of inertial particles by water in porous media
Max A. Endo Kokubun, Adrian Muntean, Florin A. Radu +4
We study the transport of inertial particles in water flow in porous media. Our interest lies in understanding the accumulation of particles including the possibility of clogging.…

Transport of polymer particles in a oil-water flow in porous media: enhancing oil recovery
Max A. Endo Kokubun, Florin A. Radu, Eirik Keilegavlen +2
We study a heuristic, core-scale model for the transport of polymer particles in a two phase (oil and water) porous medium. We are motivated by recent experimental observations whi…
