Liquid injectivity in a SAG foam process: Effect of permeability

Foam is utilized in enhanced oil recovery and CO₂ sequestration. Surfactant-alternating-gas (SAG) is a preferred approach for placing foam into reservoirs, due to it enhances gas injection and minimizes corrosion in facilities. Our previous studies with similar permeability cores show that during SAG injection, several banks occupy...

Effect of Gas Composition on Surfactant Injectivity in a Surfactant-Alternating-Gas Foam Process

Aqueous foam is a dispersion of gas in liquid, where the liquid acts as the continuous phase and the gas is separated by thin liquid films stabilized by a surfactant. Foam injection is a widely used technique in various applications, including CO2 sequestration, enhanced oil recovery, soil remediation, etc. Surfactant-alternating-gas (SAG) is a...
