A Mechanism of Improved Oil Recovery by Low-Salinity Waterflooding in Sandstone Rock

Injection of low-salinity water showed high potentials in improving oil recovery when compared to high-salinity water. However, the optimum water salinity and conditions are uncertain, due to the lack of understanding the mechanisms of fluid-rock interactions. The main objective of this study is to...
