Two successful steam-diverting field tests were conducted at the Midway-Sunset Field in the San Joaquin Valley, California. A Chevron proprietary sulfonate was used as a steam-diverting agent to improve oil recovery. The results showed that, for the conditions of the field experiment, the sulfonate used is very economic, significantly increasing oil recovery. Also, there were no associated sulfonate-handling and produced oil-treating problems.
