Potential of a new water-soluble agent for enhancing heavy oil recovery: A pore-scale investigation

Mingkun Zhai et al.

Summary: The new chemical agent T-PVM enhances sweep and displacement efficiency in heavy oil reservoirs by reducing oil viscosity via emulsification and increasing water viscosity. Experimental results show that T-PVM can effectively emulsify residual oil after water flooding, improving oil recovery efficiency.
