The international journal of Petroleum Science and Technology publishes original, high-quality peer-reviewed research and review articles that explore:
- The fundamental science of fluid-fluid and rock-fluids interactions and multi-phase interfacial and transport phenomena through porous media related to advanced petroleum recovery processes,
- The application of novel concepts and processes for enhancing recovery of subsurface energy resources in a carbon-sensitive manner,
- Case studies of scaling up the laboratory research findings to field pilots and field-wide applications.
- Other salient technological challenges facing the petroleum industry.
We are especially keen to receive contributions from authors whose research looks at the following general areas:
- Fluid-fluid interactions (solubility, miscibility, phase behavior) of hydrocarbons in the presence of surfactants, nanofluids, CO2 and other agents that could enhance petroleum recovery from both conventional and unconventional (shale-oil, heavy-oil, and bitumen) resources
- Rock-fluids interactions of wettability, spreading adhesion and relative permeability characteristics that influence the distribution and multi-phase flow of hydrocarbons in porous subsurface media
- Enhanced oil recovery by chemical, gas and heat injection processes
- Original research and review articles that address the environmental aspects of petroleum recovery and production
- Near wellbore processes, coupling between reservoir and wellbore transport processes, management techniques for good well bore performance
- Poroelasticity and hydraulic fracturing studies on reservoir scale that explore the impact of such mechanism on Petroleum Science and Technology
- Experimental research as well as theoretical and multiscale modeling work with substantial verification of results
