The need to minimize surfactant adsorption on rock surfaces has been a challenge for
surfactant-based, chemical-enhanced oil recovery (cEOR) techniques. Modeling of …

The wettability of carbonate rocks is often oil-wet or mixed wet. A large fraction of oil is still
remained in carbonate reservoirs, it is therefore of particular significance to implement …

As the global oil market continues to tighten, there is an increasing focus on enhancing oil
recovery. However, enhanced oil recovery technologies require the addition of chemical …

Injecting surfactant by means of chemical enhanced oil recovery (cEOR) has acquired
predominant attention in improving oil recovery by changing either fluid/rock and/or …

Enhanced oil recovery (EOR) is used to retrieve capillary trapped and bypassed oil in the
reservoir. Accordingly, laboratory and field applications of chemical EOR (CEOR) methods …

Abstract Characterization of fluid–rock interactions is essential for a broad range of
subsurface applications such as understanding fluid flow in porous medium and enhanced …

Surfactant flooding is one of the most promising chemical enhanced oil recovery (CEOR)
methods to produce residual oil in reservoirs. Recently, nanoparticles (NPs) have attracted …

Chemical-enhanced oil recovery (cEOR) is a class of techniques commonly used to extract
hydrocarbon fluids from reservoir rocks beyond conventional waterflooding. Surfactants are …

The need to reduce surfactant adsorption on rock surfaces has been a difficult task in
chemical enhanced oil recovery, as it directly impacts the economics of the project. This …

The use of green, eco-friendly, efficient, and sustainable surfactants for enhanced oil
recovery (EOR) is of great importance. In this study, a novel and unique natural surfactant …
