Case study
Enhanced oil recovery using nanoparticles
Nanoparticles are gaining interest as wettability alteration and interfacial tension reduction agents in enhanced oil recovery.

In this case study:
- How nanoparticles can be utilized to enhance oil recovery
- How contact angle measurements can be used to study the effect of nanoparticles as wettability alteration agent
- That core flooding experiments are in good agreement with the contact angle data
