core flooding lab and the reservoir condition can be simulated by setting the pressure and temperature of the core flooding lab at values similar to the real conditions of the reservoir. The core flooding equipment FES 350 has been used by Mohsin and his co-workers [56] to investigate the stimulation efficiency of the diesel-based and *Jatropha*-based emulsified fluids described in **Table 2** at a temperature of 7°C, a back pressure of 700 psi, confining pressure of 1300 psi, and injection rate of 0.5 cc/min. Two carbonate cores, shown in **Figure 8**, were immersed first with
