Abstract This review discusses surfactants used for chemical flooding, including surfactant-polymer flooding and alkali-surfactant-polymer flooding. The review, unlike most previous reviews in the field, has a surfactant focus, not a focus on the flooding process. It deals with recent results, mainly from 2010 and onward. Older literature is referred to when needed in order to put more recent findings into a perspective.
1
It covers surfactant-polymer flooding and alkali-surfactant-polymer flooding as major chemical enhanced-oil-recovery approaches.
2
The review emphasizes recent findings published mainly from 2010 onward, using older literature to provide historical context.
3
The review focuses specifically on surfactants used in chemical flooding for enhanced oil recovery, rather than on flooding processes generally.
4
Unlike most previous reviews, the paper organizes its discussion around surfactant developments and applications in enhanced oil recovery.
