(2017-12-06)This experimental research investigates the opportunity to enhance the oil recovery by enhancing the foam stability by the use of surfactants mixtures in comparison with individual surfactants. The mixtures were prepared ...
-
(2020-01-13)Surfactant injection as additives to steam injection is a concept that has great potential to enhance oil recovery efficiency of heavy oil and bitumen. Steam injection enhances oil recovery by introducing heat to the ...
