Status of Surfactant-Polymer Flooding
Abstract: Abstract Surfactant-polymer (SP) flooding emerged from the principle that good sweep efficiency and displacement efficiency result in good oil recovery. Its research and development was shifted to alkaline-surfactant-polymer (ASP) because higher oil recovery can be achieved from the latter. Apparently, some research-development focus is coming back to SP, because ASP has problems in practical applications, e.g., scaling and emulsion. This paper provides the status of surfactant-polymer flooding technology. It covers …
