    摘要: One embodiment includes an oil recovery process, more particularly a secondary or tertiary type crude oil recovery process utilizing a drive fluid to move a displacing fluid through a subterranean formation wherein the displacing fluid displaces crude oil therefrom and is driven through the formation by means of the drive fluid. The crude oil recovery process is improved by utilizing as the drive fluid a thickened, transparent, aqueous solution of a water-soluble sulfated, polyethoxylated C.sub.10 -C.sub.18 primary alcohol or alkylated phenol. The displacing fluid is generally an aqueous surfactant solution, a miscible displacing medium or most preferably a microemulsion. In a further embodiment, the water-soluble, polyethoxylated C.sub.10 -C.sub.18 primary alcohol or alkylated phenol is employed as a mobility control agent in a waterflood thereby increasing the sweep efficiency thereof.

    摘要: To improve the sweep efficiency of a microemulsion flooding process to recover crude oil from a subterranean formation, a mobility control polymer is added to the microemulsion to increase its viscosity. To enable the compatible incorporation of the polymer and surfactant into the microemulsion, while still utilizing an aqueous component having a salinity near that of the formation, a microemulsion oil component is used for which the surfactant's optimal salinity is substantially higher than for reservoir crude oil.

    摘要: Crude oil remaining in a subterranean formation is recovered through the injection of a microemulsion comprising an oil, i.e. a refined or crude oil, an aqueous medium and as a surfactant, a C.sub.8-16 orthoxylene sulfonate. The aqueous medium is preferably a brine having a salt concentration of up to about 2 1/2% by weight, although increased brine tolerance can be achieved by inclusion of a cosurfactant within the microemulsion. When utilized in the secondary or tertiary recovery of crude oil, the microemulsion is preferably followed by thickened water and thereafter unthickened water injected into and through the subterranean formation.

    摘要: To improve the separation of a produced oil-water emulsion containing a surfactant, the emulsion parameters of temperature and salinity are brought within certain critical limits. The emulsion will separate into an injectable brine/surfactant phase and a pipeline quality crude oil phase. The operable salinity range is from about 70% to about 130% of the reservoir salinity, and the operable temperature range is from about 75.degree. F. lower to about 75.degree. F. higher than the temperature of the reservoir from which the emulsion was produced.

    摘要: To reduce the surfactant adsorption in a subterranean formation during a surfactant or microemulsion flooding process, lignosulfonate salts are injected into the formation after the surfactant solution has already been injected. The lignosulfonate afterflush may contain a thickener to promote better sweep efficiency, and water or brine will usually be used to drive the lignosulfonate salts through the reservoir to a production well.
