Abstract Utilization of nanoparticles for enhanced oil recovery (EOR) has attracted great attention in recent decades. However, various constraints influence fluid-fluid and fluid-rock interactions of nanofluids and subsequently oil recovery. A comprehensive review of existing literatures on how to mitigate against these limits are presented in this study. Furthermore, nanofluid EOR mechanisms and various application parameters which may influence nanofluid flooding efficiency were discussed. Also, the basic steps for preliminary investigation of nanomaterials for EOR, the challenges, gaps, and future trends associated with nanofluids reservoir field applications were suggested. Field trials results have proven that nanofluids can influence various EOR mechanisms.

纳米流体驱油的当前发展和未来展望：影响石油采收机制的各种参数的综合回顾

摘要 近几十年来，纳米粒子在提高石油采收率 (EOR) 中的应用引起了极大的关注。然而，各种限制因素会影响纳米流体的流体-流体和流体-岩石相互作用以及随后的石油采收率。本研究对有关如何减轻这些限制的现有文献进行了全面审查。此外，讨论了可能影响纳米流体驱油效率的纳米流体 EOR 机制和各种应用参数。此外，还提出了初步研究用于 EOR 的纳米材料的基本步骤、与纳米流体储层现场应用相关的挑战、差距和未来趋势。现场试验结果证明，纳米流体可以影响各种 EOR 机制。
