• NUMERICAL ANALYSIS OF ALKALINE FLOODING IN RESERVOIRS USING ONE-DIMENSIONAL BUCKLEY-LEVERETT MODELS

  Emmanuel Tamunoemi Briggs , Florence Ebimobowei Owei

  Alkaline flooding, a chemical enhanced oil recovery (EOR) technique, uses alkaline agents to generate in situ surfactants that reduce interfacial tension between oil and water. This paper develops and simulates a one-dimensional (1-D) model for alkaline flooding using the BuckleyLeverett frontal
