Laboratory studies on the use of surfactant compositions to solve resource extraction problems

Abstract

Abstract Based on studies on the interaction and heat resistance of some heat-resistant polymer additives at 128 °C, a sulfonated polyacrylamide polymer AN-125 is proposed as an additive for improving the viscosity of a surfactant composition. The results of experimental studies of a new surfactant composite prepared based on a mixture of ethoxylated and propoxylated sulfate, α-olefin sulfonate and alkylphenol ethoxylate with a concentration of 500 ppm and additives to improve the viscosity in the reservoir model from the deposit basement samples showed that the surface tension at the oil-solution boundary before the exposure to temperature is 0.19 mN/m, and after exposure to temperature 91 °C – 0.21 mN/m. The experimental studies of water and surfactant compositions injection on 5 prefabricated models composed of core samples of basement rocks covering a wide range of reservoir properties showed that the injection of the oil rim with compositions based on the mixture of ethoxylated and propoxylated sulfate, α-olefin sulfonate and alkylphenol ethoxylate with a concentration of 800 ppm and an additive of polymerasulfonated polyacylate increases the oil displacement ratio.
