To scale, design and optimize oil production, scientists from Kazan Federal University together with Zarubezhneft were the first to develop a kinetic model of catalytic aquathermolysis using a water-soluble nickel-based catalyst. The water-soluble catalysts demonstrate efficiency in reducing the viscosity of bituminous oil and can be used in the field with lower costs. Their application allows...
The paper was published in Chemical Engineering Journal. Technologies of underground partial refining of heavy oil are a promising area of the oil and gas industry. As the Laboratory of In-Situ Combustion has shown, an important role in these processes is played by water, which acts not only as a medium, but also participates in chemical...
