For optimizing and enhancing hydrocarbon recovery from unconventional plays, the technological race is currently focused on development and production of state-of-the-art surfactants that reduce inter facial tension to mitigate obstructive capilary forces and thus increase the relative permeability to hydrocarbon(kro). This study provides insight into the pore-scale evaluation of the latest flowback enhancer technologies currently applied in the Permian Basin, Texas, USA. A multidisciplinary approach, including concepts o fnanotechnology, was used to assess fluid-fluid and rock-fluid interactions occurring at the nanopore scale and their implications on enhancing oil recovery.

EOR Optimization

Quickly and repeatedly evaluate chemical EOR performance to increase oil recovery. Interface’s Chemical EOR Optimization uses reservoir analogues designed and fabricated to be representative of each reservoir’s unique properties including pore geometries, permeability, and porosity. This methodology replicates your reservoir attributes, your reservoir fluids and your EOR procedures and approach. Find out more in our brochure at the link below.
