Dear Colleagues,

We are pleased to inform you that Energies is launching a Special Issue entitled “Advances in Enhanced Oil Recovery Methods and Theory”. The resuscitation of the global oil price is prompting oil suppliers to seek advanced methods and technologies for increasing oil production. This Special Issue aims to gather the latest results and knowledge in this interesting area, which should be of interest to readers from academia and industry.

We would like to invite you to contribute a paper on your research for publication in this Special Issue. The aim of this SI is to provide an ideal platform to share new and emerging knowledge in enhanced oil recovery from academic institutes and E&P and service companies, and also to meet the urgent technology demand of this area. Take this opportunity to showcase your ideas.

This Special Issue seeks high quality papers devoted to the latest research, developments, and applications of new chemicals, methods, and technologies for enhanced oil recovery. Topics include but not limited to：

1. Chemical flooding
2. Gas injection
3. Conformance control
4. Nanotechnology
