Abstract

Hypothesis: The hyperbranched chains on the tail of low surface energy surfactants (LSES) causes lowering of surface free energy and rock wettability alteration, offering significant improvement in oil recovery in asphaltene oil reservoirs.Experiments: Oil sweep efficiency was determined by fluid di...
