During water flooding of the carbonate oil reservoir, deposition of sulfate scales on the pore surface causes formation damage and affects oil recovery efficiency. Thus, a clear understanding of this scale s early crystallization stage is crucial to optimize and control the scaling process. Molecular dynamics simulation is utilized in this study to obtain a fundamental insight into the interfacial phenomena responsible for the precipitation and deposition of mineral scales on the calcite surface to resemble the formation damage during smart water flooding of the carbonate oil reservoir. Providing the results of this work allows one to to find the most effective inhibitors remediating this type of oil reservoir formation damage.
