Overview

Formation Damage during Improved Oil Recovery: Fundamentals and Applications bridges the gap between theoretical knowledge and field practice by presenting information on formation damage issues that arise during enhanced oil recovery. Multi-contributed technical chapters include sections on modeling and simulation, lab experiments, field case studies, and newly proposed technologies and methods that are related to formation damage during secondary and tertiary recovery processes in both conventional and unconventional reservoirs. Focusing on both the fundamental theories related to EOR and formation damage, this reference helps engineers formulate integrated and systematic designs for applying EOR processes while also considering formation damage issues.

Author Information

Dr. Bin Yuan is currently post-doctoral fellow at University of Calgary, and senior reservoir advisor for Coven Energy, providing oil/gas production technology and consulting services with research interests in formation damage characterization and mitigation coupled with IOR processes, improved characterization and simulation toolbox for hydraulic fracturing and enhanced oil recovery in unconventional oil and gas, and applied nanotechnologies in petroleum engineering. He previously worked on reservoir engineering related researches at GE Oil and Gas Technology Center. Dr. Yuan earned B.S. and M.S. degrees, both in petroleum engineering from China University of Petroleum, and a PhD from the University of Oklahoma. David A. Wood has more than forty years of international gas, oil, and broader energy experience since gaining his Ph.D. in geosciences from Imperial College London in the 1970s. His expertise covers multiple fields including subsurface geoscience and engineering relating to oil and gas exploration and production, energy supply chain technologies, and efficiencies. For the past two decades, David has worked as an independent international consultant, researcher, training provider, and expert witness. He has published an extensive body of work on geoscience, engineering, energy, and machine learning topics. He currently consults and conducts research on a variety of technical and commercial aspects of energy and environmental issues through his consultancy, DWA Energy Limited. He has extensive editorial experience as a founding editor of Elsevier’s Journal of Natural Gas Science & Engineering in 2008/9 then serving as Editor-in-Chief from 2013 to 2016. He is currently Co-Editor-in-Chief of Advances in Geo-Energy Research.
