Profile Control Using Fly Ash Three-Phase Foam Assisted by Microspheres with an Adhesive Coating

Abstract: Foam-assisted steam flooding is a promising technique to alleviate gas channeling and enhance sweep efficiency in heterogeneous heavy-oil reservoirs. However, long-term foam stabilization remains problematic at high temperatures. Three-phase foam (TPF), containing dispersed solid particles, has been proposed to improve foam stability under harsh reservoir conditions. We fabricated a novel TPF system by adding ultrafine fly ash particles, as well as high-temperature resistant microspheres with an adhesive coati… Show more

“…Figures 13,14 show the strong oil production performance caused by the channeling prevention of foam. This reveals the oil recovery mechanism of foam in huff-n-puff gas injection from the perspective of micro pores, that is, it increases the swept volume of gas in micro pores, middle pores and large pores, and improves the oil recovery as a whole (Diwu et al, 2018;Zhu et al, 2018;Feng et al, 2020;Yang et al, 2021).…”

“…There are also papers on specific engineering applications in the Special Issue. Yang et al [18] proposed a three-phase foam (TPF) containing dispersed solid particles to improve foam stability under harsh reservoir conditions. They fabricated a novel TPF system, assessed the ability of the TPF to control steam channeling and enhance oil recovery, and observed a stronger foamability at a lower consolidation agent concentration.…”
