Experimental investigation of miscibility conditions of dead and live asphaltenic crude oil–CO2 systems

Carbon dioxide (CO2) injection is a well-established enhanced oil recovery method. The optimization process of CO2 injection is usually performed through estimation of two physical properties, i.e., minimum miscibility and first-contact miscibility pressures (MMP and FCMP) for the crude oil–CO2 system. In this experimental study, the equilibrium IFT of the crude oil–CO2 system is measured at (313.15 and 323.15 K) for two oil types (i.e., live...
