Abstract:

This research was conducted to study the feasibility of using Surfactant Flooding (SF) to increase the Recovery Factor from the (AL- Furat Fields).

At first ,a literature review of the Enhanced Oil Recovery (EOR) methods in general  was conducted ,especially Chemical Methods ,including Surfactant Flooding Method ,displacement mechanisms, classifications, types, and screening criteria, in practical section  after studying  Reservoir Characteristics of AL-furat Fields(case study) and the  data were  correlated with the requirements Surfactants Chemical Injection conditions , a suitable fields were selected(as Abo-Hardan, AL-Rasein, Akkash) for application this technology.
