Why is Wettability Important in Enhanced Oil Recovery?

In enhanced oil recovery, wettability plays an important role as it determines the interactions between the solid (rock) and the liquids in the reservoirs (crude oil, brine). Wettability has been recognized as one of the key parameters controlling the remaining oil-in-place.
