    摘要: Described herein are surfactant compositions for use in oil and gas operations. The surfactant compositions are stable under harsh conditions, including in formations that exhibit high salinity, high temperature, and/or high H2S concentration. Also provided are methods of using these compositions. Specifically an aqueous composition comprising: (i) a surfactant package, wherein the surfactant package comprises: (a) a surfactant comprising a branched, unbranched, saturated, or unsaturated C6-C32:80(0-65):PO(0-65):EO(0-100)-X having a concentration within the aqueous composition of from 0.05%-5% by weight, based on the total weight of the aqueous composition, wherein there is at least one BO, PO, or EO group, and wherein X comprises a sulfonate, a disulfonate, a carboxylate, a dicarboxylate, a sulfosuccinate, a disulfosuccinate, or hydrogen: and (b) olefin sulfonate and/or a disulfonate; and (ii) water.
