With the increasing demand for efficient extraction of residual oil, enhanced oil recovery
(EOR) offers prospects for producing more reservoirs' original oil in place. As one of the most …

The study is concerned with synthesizing copper oxide nanoparticles with leaf extract
Eucalyptus Globoulus. The results of scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and dynamic light …

Recently, there are increasing interests in chemical enhanced oil recovery (EOR) especially
surfactant‐polymer (SP) flooding. Although alkali‐surfactant‐polymer (ASP) flooding can …

Mixed cationic/anionic surfactant systems have showed great potential in various fields.
Ionic liquids with extraordinary physical and chemical properties are regarded as novel …

More than half of the oil and gas resources of the world are hosted in carbonate reservoirs.
Also, a total of 60% of their residual oil is left unswept during conventional primary and …

Alkyl polyglucoside, an eco-friendly, stable and low-cost available biobased surfactant, was
chemically modified to develop ultra-low interfacial tension (IFT) surfactants for crude oil …

Chemical enhanced oil recovery (EOR) leads to substantial incremental costs over
waterflooding of oil reservoirs. Reservoirs containing oil with a high total acid number (TAN) …

The objective of this paper is to present a critical review of best practices for conducting
laboratory experiments to evaluate chemical EOR. Some legacy methods and procedures …

This review discusses surfactants used for chemical flooding, including surfactant-polymer
flooding and alkali-surfactant-polymer flooding. The review, unlike most previous reviews in …

A predictive model was developed that captures quantitative structure-property relationships
between the molecular structures of surfactants and co-solvents and microemulsion phase …
