surfactant

This study presents the development of a biodegradable surfactant developed using principles of environmentally friendly chemistry from natural sources. The goal is to develop an effective and environmentally friendly surfactant that can emulsify and disperse oil to reduce its effects on marine environments.

This study compares water-based chemicals including surfactants, nanoparticles, and ketones that can be used for enhancing the oil recovery of shale-oil reservoirs.

Interfacial tension keeps oil and water separate by resisting the mixing of their molecules at the surface. Learn how industry experts measure this force to diagnose fluid behavior.

This study explores the potential of locally produced surfactants for enhanced oil recovery in high-temperature and high-salinity reservoir environments.

This paper presents a clear and consistent method for determining dead and live crude EACNs using a single reliable method, highlighting a graphical way to determine the optimal salinity and its uncertainties using real data.

The authors of this paper study the effect of solids particles on oil/water separators and on produced-water treatment.

This paper presents the completion strategy implemented in an intelligent well completed in Malaysian deepwater Block K.

Chevron has some new ideas on how to get more oil for less cost out of shale wells in their early years.

This study presents a novel approach to screen thermally stable surfactants at high pressures and high temperatures for the explicit purpose of wettability alteration in the operator’s Eagle Ford acreage.

This work explores the synergistic effects of smartwater in polymerflooding, surfactant/polymerflooding, carbonated waterflooding, and foam-assisted gas-injection.
