Hybrid Enhanced Oil Recovery Processes for Heavy Oil Reservoirs, Volume 73 systematically introduces these technologies. As the development of heavy oil reservoirs is emphasized, the petroleum industry is faced with the challenges of selecting cost-effective and environmentally friendly recovery processes. This book tackles these challenges with the introduction and investigation of a variety of hybrid EOR processes. In addition, it addresses the application of these hybrid EOR processes in onshore and offshore heavy oil reservoirs, including theoretical, experimental and simulation approaches. This book will be very useful for petroleum engineers, technicians, academics and students who need to study the hybrid EOR processes, In addition, it will provide an excellent reference for field operations by the petroleum industry. - Introduces emerging hybrid EOR processes and their technical details - Includes case studies to help readers understand the application potential of hybrid EOR processes from different points-of-view - Features theoretical, experimental and simulation studies to help readers understand the advantages and challenges of each process

Xiaohu Dong is currently an associate professor in the College of Petroleum Engineering at the China University of Petroleum-Beijing. Previously, he was a postdoctoral fellow at the University of Calgary. Dr. Dong has authored or co-authored more than 60 technical papers and 7 patents. He is an active member of SPE and the reviewer for more than 30 international journals. His research interests include thermal/non-thermal heavy oil recovery techniques, multiphase flow in porous media, phase behavior of fluids in unconventional reservoirs, and EOR processes. He holds a PhD degree in petroleum engineering from the China University of Petroleum-Beijing.
