"Experimental Studies on the\r\nPerformance of Bio Based and Industrial\r\nSurfactants in Enhanced Oil Recovery"^^ . "Surfactants are known for their unique property in lowering the interfacial tension (IFT)\r\namid fluids injected and heavy crude oil of 22.3°API. In this present work, an original\r\nsurfactant was formulated from natural oil (Castor oil) to see its use in enhanced oil\r\nrecovery. The results from interfacial tension reduction by the castor oil-based\r\nsurfactant were compared to that of the industrial surfactant (Methyl ester sulfonate).\r\nThe IFT between the aqueous phases was measured then the effect of the surfactants\r\nwas studied in core flooding experiments. The IFT was found to be reduced to as low as\r\n12.1 mN/m using the castor-based surfactant and 12.3 mN/m using the industrial\r\nsurfactant. The influence of brine concentration on IFT was also investigated. Results\r\nfrom core floods showed that the range of oil recovery after waterflood is in the range of\r\n30-40% and the additional recovery from surfactant flooding in the range of 35-46%."^^ .
