Naturally Occurring seismic events and artificially generated low-frequency (1 to 500 Hz) elastic waves have been observed to alter the production rates of oil and water wells, sometimes increasing and sometimes decreasing production, and to influence the turbidity Of surface and well water. The decreases in production are of particular concern, especially when artificially generated elastic waves are applied its a method for enhanced oil recovery. The exact conditions that result in it decrease in production remain unknown. Although the underlying environment is certainly complex, the observed increase in water well turbidity after natural seismic events Suggests the existence of a mechanism that can affect both the subsurface flow paths and the mobilization of in situ colloidal particles. This article explores the macroscopic and microscopic effects of low-frequency dynamic stress Stimulations on the release of colloidal particles from an analog core representing all infinitesimal section along the propagation paths of all elastic wave. Experiments oil a column packed with 1 mm borosilicate beads and loaded with polystyrene microparticles demonstrate that axial mechanical stress oscillations enhance the mobilization of captured microparticles. Increasing the amplitude of the oscillations increases the number of microparticles released and call also result in cyclical spikes in effluent microparticle concentration during stimulation. Under a prolonged period of stimulation, the cyclical effluent spikes coincided with fluctuations in the column pressure data and continued at a diminished level after stimulation. This behavior can be attributed to rearrangements of the beads in the column, resulting in possible changes in the void space and/or tortuosity of the packing. Optical microscopy observations of the beads during low-frequency oscillations reveal that individual beads rotate, thereby rubbing against each other and scraping away portions of the adsorbed microparticles. These results support the theory that mechanical interactions between porous matrix grains are important mechanisms in now path alteration and the mobilization of naturally occurring colloidal particles during elastic wave stimulation. These results also point to both continuous and discrete en masse releases of colloidal particles, perhaps because of circulation cells within the packing material.
