“…Simulation experiments were conducted to examine the effects of ASP on w/o [39] and stability o/w separation [40] in produced water from ASP flooding. The emulsion stability of water produced from ASP ooding was investigated by conducting settling experiments and measuring the oil-water interfacial properties [41]. The experimental results show that the addition of hydrolyzed polyacrylamide degrades the emulsion stability when its concentration is below 300 mg/L for the molecular weight M W = 1.210 7 , and 800 mg/L for the M W = 3.010 6 .…”

However, ASP flooding approach is considered to be the most promising approach since it can provide advantages over controlling the above parameters for obtaining high oil recovery rate.…”

This is a review article on the subject of combining tertiary oil recovery methods like alkaline, surfactant and polymer flooding in order to achieve the synergetic effect out of the different impacts which are caused by these chemicals, affect oil and water filtration in the reservoir and increase oil recovery. In the article the main theoretical concepts of EOR (enhanced oil recovery) are summarized, mechanism of alkaline, surfactant and polymer flooding technologies are explained referring to the research works which had strong contribution to the development of the tertiary oil recovery methods. Formulation of alkaline/surfactant/polymer (ASP) chemical formula for EOR is discussed as well. Importance of numerical simulation and core flood laboratory experiments for the successful implementation of ASP technologies explained in the paper. Finally several examples of ASP flooding applications throughout the world projects are presented.

“…Certain asphaltenes are considered harmful and may have undesirable impact on human beings, aquatic life, and plants (Nenningsland et al, 2014). Due to these reasons, many environmental authorities have fixed strict limits for asphaltenes present in produced water from ASP flooding (Deng et al, 2002;Wang et al, 2011;Liu et al, 2013).…”

“…Nowadays, in onshore oily wastewater treatment technology has been used successfully in the ASEAN oilfield, but the produced water is more difficult to treat than that from water flooding and polymer flooding [7]. Moreover, has stated that the produced water is more difficult to treat than water flooding since the water produced from AlkalineSurfactant-Flooding (ASP) flooding has chemical complex substances and stable emulsion system [8]. Besides, some other different additives composition were used green starch, low viscosity polyanionic cellulose (PAC-LV), xanthan gum (XC-Polymer), partially hydrolyzed polyacrylamide (PHPA), potassium chloride (Merck, 99.5%), sodium chloride (Merck, 99.5%), barite, caustic soda, and clouding glycol [9].…”

IntroductionOil and gas are one of the most important resources in the world and it plays a role in the global economy. However, the activities of oil and gas from most of companies in the world have many negative impacts on the environment. One of the reasons is due to the waste production from the oil and gas industry. According to Environmental Quality Act 1974, waste can be defined as any matter prescribed to be waste and any matter, whether liquid, solid, gaseous or radioactive, which is discharged, emitted, or deposited in the environment in such volume, composition or manner as to cause an alteration of the environment. The exploration and extraction of oil and gas processes produce the waste materials such as used drilling fluids and drilling cuttings like complex mixtures of clays and chemicals. Usually the waste is discharged directly from the platforms into the surrounding marine water.Based on the standard procedure, the waste has to clean first before discharge the waste into the marine water by various physical means and the company has to follow the limits on levels of contaminants based on the regulations and legislations. If the disposal of these wastes is not regulated, the resulting environmental pollution may lead to radiation exposure, whether for people directly involved in oil and gas operations, the general public, animals and plants. There are several potential adverse impacts to the marine water due to disposal of wastes. For example is it can pollute of the marine environment, surface soil and water degradation and groundwater contamination?In general, this paper provides an overview on the oil exploration and production waste discharges according to legislative and waste management practices perspective in Malaysia and the study of the effect of the waste produced from the oil and gas industry to the environment. The scopes of the study are covered by several sections as follows: the oil exploration and production waste discharges, waste management in oil and gas waste products, the regulations and legislations act related to oil and gas in Malaysia and the possible environment impact due to disposal of wastes to marine water. Literature ReviewOil exploration and production waste discharges AbstractThe core frame of research is dominated by the waste management practice of the oil exploration and production waste discharges from Malaysia's petroleum industry related to legislation. As the waste harms the environment, the composition and possible environmental impact of the waste produced from the offshore drilling process activities are studied. This research will lead to a better waste management practices framework which comply Malaysia's legislation and regulation act. In this study, the biggest issues that limits the waste management practices in petroleum industry in Malaysia is lacking of practices on petroleum waste management. The main difference between waste management practices between Asian and African countries is the African country has more utilization of waste into us...
