Development of a Framework for Scaling Surfactant Enhanced CO2 Flooding from Laboratory Scale to Field Implementation
The efficiency of the use of CO2 as a displacement fluid in oil recovery is hampered by the existence of an unfavorable mobility ratio that is caused by the large difference in viscosity between the injected fluid (CO2) and the reservoir fluids. This viscosity contrast results in early CO2 breakthro...
