Modelling Oilfield Scale Squeeze Treatments by Oscar Vazquez

Modelling Oilfield Scale Squeeze Treatments by Oscar Vazquez

This book provides a comprehensive introduction to scale management. Starting with an introduction to oilfield scale, including material on predicting the problem and evaluating treatment options, it then discusses various management and inhibition techniques before presenting squeeze treatments. In turn, it explores the automatic optimization of squeeze designs, the use of tracers to estimate scale inhibitor placement, and the mathematics of transport and adsorption in squeeze treatments, while also describing the treatment lifecycle in detail. Further, it presents all the steps involved in designing a cost-effective squeeze treatment for a real-world field case. Given its scope, the book will be of interest to researchers in the field of petroleum engineering, especially those specializing in flow assurance, transport in porous media, or the modelling and optimization of scale treatment designs. It also offers a valuable resource for engineers working in the oil industry, and for service companies providing scale management

Oscar Vazquez has been an Assistant Professor at Heriot-Watt University since 2006. He has been working on modelling squeeze treatments, from core to reservoir scale, for the last 10 years, and has published more than forty research papers on the subject. In addition, he has contributed more than twenty technical reports and more than fifty technical consultancy reports to a major Joint Industrial Project.
