Investigation on Alkali-Surfactant-Foam (ASF) for Enhanced Oil Recovery, Experimentally and Theoretically

This thesis presented an extensive study on various aspects of ASF flooding process for EOR. It provides insight into hybrid EOR processes that are of a combination of immiscible gas and chemicals injection in sandstone reservoir. We wanted to discover the mechanism of oil displacement by ASF flooding in terms of 1) formation of oil bank, 2)...
