Nuclear Magnetic Resonance Evaluation Study for Effect of Foam flooding in Heterogeneous Cores

Foam flooding demonstrated the ability to solve the viscous fingering problem of gas flooding and increase the sweep efficiency in enhancing oil recovery. It is commonly used in development of heterogeneous reservoirs. While the characteristics of fluid migration in pores and between layers were sti...
