Controlled salinity water flooding and zeta potential: Insight into a novel enhanced oil recovery mechanism

Controlled salinity water flooding also known as engineered water flood has been tested as a potential enhanced oil recovery (EOR) method in laboratory as well as at pilot/field scale. However, there are cases seen where the method has failed to show its potential for EOR. Scientists believe that th...
