Mechanistic Foam Modeling and Simulations: Gas Injection during Surfactant-Alternating-Gas Processes Using Foam-Catastrophe Theory
The use of foam for mobility control is a promising means to improve sweep efficiency in subsurface applications such as improved/enhanced oil recovery and aquifer remediation. Foam can be introduced into geological formations by injecting gas and surfactant solutions simultaneously or alternatively...
