“…The results are presented in Figure . This observation is in line with the previous research, where significant improvements in oil recovery from core flooding were achieved after adding a magnetic field to ferrofluid (Fe 2 O 3 ) dispersed in SW. Including a magnetic field generated by a magnet strength of 3000 G gives about 1.29% extra oil recovery, but no additional production was observed with 6000 G. These results show that the magnetic field is more effective in DW, with an incremental oil recovery of 3.75% compared to that of SW for oil-wet chalk.…”

“…The significant increase in oil production of about 13.89% over the three steps shows that the magnetic field enhances the imbibition process, and hence the oil displacement. Recent work 25 has shown that the application of EM waves and magnetic fields during ferrofluid flooding increased the oil RF by approximately 10.33%. In contrast, no enhancement of production during water flooding was observed in another study 27 in the presence of strongly and weakly magnetic water, and the RF was approximately the same compared to that with normal water.…”

“…Therefore, the nanoparticles are to be dispersed in a fluid that consequently undergoes polarization, reorientation, and alteration in the viscosity when an electric field is applied [110]. The polarization of the particles can be observed in which the molecules arrange themselves toward the direction of the electric field which is attributed to the dielectric constant, whereas the particle's reorientation, on the other hand, depends upon the dielectric loss measurement [58]. Significantly, the presence of an electric field in that formation of fluids will cause an alteration of the particles in the fluids within which the mobility ratio will be improved.…”

“…Nanotechnology plays a large role in helping the new emerging technologies to overcome the many limitations of thermal, miscible, and other types of recovery methods [4][5][6]. The contribution to the recovery of oil by Nanoparticles (NPs) is due to the reduction in the interfacial tension between wetting fluid and oil and the increase in viscosity of the displacing fluid that causes greater oil recovery [7,8].…”
