Steamflooding efficiency can be increased by foaming injected surfactants in deoiled reservoir zones to divert steam into higher-oil-saturation zones. The purpose of this project is to develop test facilities (static tests and flooding trials) to check the applicability of various high-temperature-resistant surfactants at temperatures up to 572 of.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
