Zusammenfassung:The wettability of oil reservoirs is the most important factor controlling the rate of oil recovery, providing a profound effect on petroleum production. The petroleum industry has increased the research effort on wettability, but, so far, there has never been a comprehensive book on the topic. This is the first book to go through all of the major research and applications on wettability, capillary pressure, and relative permeability. Deciphering the techniques and examples will increase the efficiency and production of oil and gas recovery, translating to stronger reservoir simulations and improved well production.
