A novel EOR surfactant
Scientists at Swansea University, UK have developed a novel, ‘green’ surfactant which improves oil recovery by 72%. The surfactant is quick and simple to synthesise and could provide a cheaper, greener alternative to common EOR surfactants.

A New Class of Low Surface Energy Anionic Surfactant for Enhanced Oil Recovery
A new type of green low surface energy surfactant (LSES) that is stable in the harsh conditions of enhanced oil recovery (EOR) has been reported. This efficient surfactant examined by scientists at Swansea University is shown to improve the oil ...

Scientists develop a well-good way to extract oil
The surfactant developed by the team from Swansea University is hydrocarbon-based, which they hope has the potential to be a ‘green’ replacement. To find out, the team, led by Dr Shirin Alexander and Professor Andrew R Barron, turned to the ...

Scientists develop a well-good way to extract oil
Scientists from Swansea University have used ISIS Neutron and Muon Source to investigate a new and, potentially, ‘greener’ way to extract oil that might otherwise remain trapped deep within rocks.
