Enhanced Oil Recovery
Unger is currently developing customized anionic surfactants like alkyl aryl sulfonates that can be used to increase mobilization and production of crude oil from both new and existing fields.
ENHANCED OIL RECOVERY (EOR)
Unger is specialized in manufacturing customized anionic surfactants like alkyl aryl sulfonates. Alkyl aryl sulfonates can be used to increase mobilization and production of crude oil from both new and existing field. Anionic surfactants have been widely used in Enhanced Oil Recovery (EOR) processes globally for more than 50 years. Their low adsorption onto reservoir rocks and great tolerance to reservoir conditions makes these chemicals a perfect choice when determining their potential use and cost efficiency for EOR applications.
Satisfying availability, environmental properties and significant performance efficiency are essential factors that have been evaluated regarding anionic surfactants functionality for mobilizing oil in recovery operations. Unger has started to develop new alkyl aryl sulfonates specially designed for EOR operations.
The products we are currently developing aims to offer:
- Good reservoir stability
- Low adsorption to reservoir rocks where sand stones are the major type
- Ultra low interfacial tension (IFT)
- Cost effective commercial solutions
- Great technical performance / high oil recovery
- Consistent high quality
- New, unique and innovative products in the market
