Transport of Surfactant and Foam in Porous Media for Enhanced Oil Recovery Processes

The use of foam-forming surfactants offers promise to improve sweep efficiency and mobility control for enhanced oil recovery (EOR). This thesis provides an in depth understanding of transport of surfactant and foam through porous media using a combination of laboratory experiments and numerical sim...
