Experimental studies were conducted to evaluate the thermal stability and rheological properties of novel surfactant-polymer (SP) systems for enhanced oil recovery applications. One in-house synthesized amphoteric amidosulfobetaine surfactant 3-(N-pentadecanamidopropyl-N,N-dimethylammonium)propanesulfonate and three different polymers were evaluated. Polymer A was a terpolymer of acrylamide, acrylamido tert-butyl sulfonate, and acrylic acid, whereas polymers B and C were terpolymers of acrylamide, N-vinylpyrrolidone, and acrylamido tert-butyl sulfonate with different anionicity. Long-term thermal stability of the surfactant was assessed using FTIR, H-1 NMR, and C-13 NMR. The surfactant was compatible with seawater at 90 A degrees C and no precipitation was observed. Structural analysis showed good thermal stability and no structural changes were observed after aging at 90 A degrees C. The effects of surfactant concentration, shear rate, salinity, and polymer concentration on rheological properties of the SP systems were determined. Polymer A showed highest viscosity among the investigated polymers in deionized and seawater. The interactions between the surfactant and polymer A were assessed using rheological measurements. In the presence of salts, the viscosity of all three polymers reduced significantly as a result of charge screening. At low shear rates, the added surfactant slightly decreased the viscosity and storage modulus of polymer A. At high shear rates, the effect of the surfactant on the viscosity and storage modulus of polymer A was insignificant.
