This work is investigation of the rheological properties of the developed additive based on polymer - sevylene with the addition of nanostructure alumina particles were studied. The regularities of the decrease in the dynamic viscosity at the temperature range from 20 to -10° In the course of the studies, a regularity was revealed, showing that for oil at a shear rate of 0.028 to 1.4 s-1, a sharp decrease in viscosity from 1800 to 336 mPa?s is observed. For oil with an additive, the viscosity decreased from 1200 t...

Surfactant flooding is a significant method used in enhanced oil recovery to reduce the amount of oil in pore space of matrix rock. These materials are injected to mobilize heavy oil by lowering the interfacial tension between oil and water and/or by the wettability alteration from oil-wet to water-wet. A various of cationic, anionic, non-ionic, and amphoteric surfactants have been studied. Although surfactant/polymer flooding is one of the most promising methods available to recover residual and remaining oil, it...
