The flow dynamics of foam in porous media during enhanced oil recovery (EOR) and aquifer
remediation is an area of active research. Foam performance therein is dependent on the …

Foam-assisted gas injection in fractured unconventional reservoirs has garnered
considerable attention as a result of its potential to address challenges associated with gas …

Nanoparticle stabilized foam flooding is a new rising technology of enhanced oil recovery
(EOR) which could be applied to produce more crude oil from low permeability reservoirs …

In foam flooding ultralow oil/water IFT and superior foaming performance are usually not
compatible, because both are achieved by surfactants at different conditions. In this paper …

In foam flooding, foams stabilized by conventional anionic surfactants are usually raptured in
contacting with crude oil, which behaves as a strong defoamer. In this article the synergistic …

This work presents the design of a robust foam formulation that tolerates harsh reservoir
conditions (high salinity, high divalent ion concentration, high temperature, light oil, and …

In foam flooding, foams stabilized by conventional surfactants are usually unstable in
contacting with crude oil, which behaves as a strong defoaming agent. In this article …

Foam flooding can significantly improve the sweep efficiency of gas flooding by avoiding or
weakening gas segregation, viscous fingering and gas channeling through areas of high …

As foam is injected into an oil reservoir, the region near an injector can become oil-free due
to the relatively high capillary number. Foam created in this region encounters oil further out …

Foam stability tests were performed using sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) surfactant and SiO
2 nanoparticles as foaming system at different asphaltene concentrations, and the half-life of …
