Nanobubble EOR Technology
Overview

Micro-nano bubbles refer to bubbles with a particle size (diameter) between 10 microns and hundreds of nanometers. At the moment of microbubble rupture, due to the drastic change of the disappearance of the gas-liquid interface, the high concentration of ions gathered on the interface will release the accumulated chemical energy at once, which can stimulate a large number of carboxyl free radicals with ultra-high redox potential. Its super strong oxidizing property can degrade pollutants that are difficult to decompose under normal conditions in water. Nanobubbles are injected into oil wells to reduce the surface tension of the liquid, improve the flow of oil, and thus increase oil recovery. By reducing the adhesion between oil and rock, nanobubbles can help release oil from the reservoir.

Improve oil recovery: Micro-nano bubbles can reduce oil viscosity, improve reservoir permeability, and make oil flow more easily.
Improve the physical properties of oil reservoir: Micro-nano bubbles can generate nano-scale pores in oil reservoir, increase pore connectivity, improve oil flow, and increase oil recoverable reservoir reserves.
Reduce oil well resistance: Micro-nano bubbles can reduce friction resistance in oil wells.
Promote reservoir fracturing: Adding micro-nano bubbles during reservoir fracturing can increase the crack expansion force and improve the fracturing effect.
Pilot tests have been carried out in four wells in Kansas, USA. The production of each well has increased to 200% of the normal level. One of the well increased its production by 540% after 90 days and maintained its production at 200% after 150 days.
