Investigation of the effects of buoyancy and heterogeneity on the performance of surfactant floods

The primary objectives of this research were to understand the potential for gravity-stable surfactant floods for enhanced oil recovery without the need for mobility control agents and to optimize the performance of such floods. Surfactants are added to injected water to mobilize the residual oil an...
