Controlling or reducing the adsorption of surfactants on reservoir rock surfaces has been a
challenging task in enhanced oil recovery (EOR) methods, as it directly affects the cost …

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 …

Surfactant and alkaline/surfactant/polymer (ASP) flooding are commonly used chemical
enhanced oil recovery (EOR) methods. However, they are traditionally carried out in …

This comprehensive review delves into the recent advancements in the study of surfactant
adsorption, a crucial factor influencing the efficiency of chemical enhanced oil recovery …

Surfactants play a vital role in chemical enhanced oil recovery (cEOR) to improve oil
production by lowering the oil-water interfacial tension and/or altering the rock wettability …

Surfactants when interacted with reservoir rock surfaces undergo adsorption, which can
intensively break the process by diluting surfactant formulation, thereby promoting additional …

The adsorption of surfactants on rock surfaces can modify their hydrophobicity, surface
charge, and other important properties that govern advanced oil recovery processes, such …

In chemical enhanced oil recovery, surfactants are injected into the reservoir with the
intention to lower interfacial tension (IFT) between the water and oil phases, and thereby …

Surfactant flooding is adjudged one of the most promising chemicals enhanced oil recovery
(cEOR) methods due to its high microscopic sweep efficiency. This surfactant shows high …

One of the main factors in chemical-based enhanced oil recovery, especially surfactant
flooding, is a surfactant adsorption loss onto the reservoir rock. The main aim of this article is …
