Global Surfactant for EOR Competitive Landscape Professional Research Report 2025

Research Summary

Surfactants for Enhanced Oil Recovery (EOR) are specialized chemical compounds used in the petroleum industry to increase the efficiency of extracting oil from reservoirs. In EOR operations, surfactants are injected into oil reservoirs to alter the interfacial tension between oil and water, improve oil mobility, and enhance oil displacement from porous rock formations. Surfactants function by reducing the interfacial tension between the oil and water phases, allowing oil to flow more easily through the reservoir pores and increasing the sweep efficiency of injected water or other displacing fluids. Additionally, surfactants can help displace trapped oil from pore spaces by creating stable emulsions or microemulsions that improve the mobility and recovery of oil. Surfactants used in EOR must be carefully selected and formulated to withstand the harsh conditions of reservoir environments, including high temperatures, pressures, and salinity levels. EOR surfactants play a vital role in maximizing oil recovery from reservoirs, improving production rates, and extending the economic life of oil fields.
