Swelling Behavior of Elastomers under Water, Oil, and Acid
Keyword(s):
It is very important to determine the behavior of elastomer materials under realistic well conditions in order to select appropriate swelling elastomers for a particular set of field conditions, for successful modeling and simulation of various downhole processes, and for design improvement of swell packers and other sealing applications. In collaboration with national and regional petroleum development and rubber engineering companies, a series of experimental studies were therefore conducted at Sultan Qaboos University for characterization of swelling related material behavior of different elastomers. Results from some of these investigations (studies A, B, and C) are reported and discussed in this chapter.
