The aim of this laboratory work was a detailed study of oil recovery ability of aqueous surfactant solutions. The study was divided in two parts: (1) extensive determination of the physic-chemical properties of micellar solutions, involved in oil displacement mechanisms physico-chemical porous media; (2) analysis and interpretation of oil displacements by aqueous surfactant solutions. Application of a Buckley-Leverett type approach was considered to aid in the interpretation of the successive displacement steps observed during flooding by surfactant solutions at low or moderate concentrations. 18 refs.
