method to generate microfractures by chemical reaction in low-carbonate-content shale reservoirs
In oil and gas production, many of the easy to access wells have already been drilled. Due to increasing energy demand, new methods that improve hydrocarbon extraction are needed. A common method to crack reservoir rocks is hydraulic fracturing, this involves pumping water, sand and chemicals into the reservoir at high pressures. In turn, this will...

Predictive Model for Densities of Aqueous Electrolyte Solutions
In most chemical and petroleum industries, the density of aqueous electrolyte solutions is useful in the design and control of chemical processes. It is used in pipe sizing, pump calculations, heat transfer calculations, and other common problems. While standardized values for the densities of many substances are readily available, there are many industrial...
