The Comprehensive Overview of Large-Volume Surfactant Slugs Injection for Enhancing Oil Recovery: Status and the Outlook

Abstract: Despite the development of alternative energy sources, oil and gas still remain the predominant energy sources in most countries in the world. Due to gradual hydrocarbon reserve depletion and the existing downward trend in the production level, there is a need to search for methods and technical approaches to level off the falling rates. Chemically enhanced oil recovery methods (EOR) by surfactant solution injections are one of the possible approaches for addressing this issue in already developed fields. Most… Show more

“…The second approach is based on the theory of turbulence: the balance between the energy required to weigh particles and the energy released when the turbulent vortices are stratified. Models Oroskari and Turian (37), Danielson (38) and others (39)(40)(41) are the most widespread.…”

“…At acidic conditions, this property of asphaltenes is more pronounced due to the large number of carbocyclic groups in the structure. The stability W/O emulsion increases at pH below 7.0, as water drops do not merge well (60,64,(74)(75)(76)(77)(78)(79)(80)(81)(82)(83)(84)(85)(86). In this case, the cationic type MNP demulsifier is preferable.…”
