Enhanced oil recovery by alkaline-surfactant-alternated-gas/CO2 flooding
Abstract The volumetric sweep efficiencies of CO2 flooding for enhanced oil recovery (EOR) are generally low due to problems of viscous fingering and gravity override. This paper attempts to study a relatively new and promising method to reduce the mobility of CO2 flooding and increase oil recovery...
