Insights into water-lubricated transport of heavy and extra-heavy oils: Application of CFD, RSM, and metaheuristic optimized machine learning models

With diminishing light crude oil reserves, the focus shifts to heavy and extra-heavy crude oil, posing challenges with high viscosity impeding flow. Water-lubricated technology addresses this issue in oil transmission lines. This study introduces a novel method integrating response surface methodolo...
