Abstract

The practice of enhanced oil recovery (EOR) technique shows that the study and application of biosurfactant flooding system have a vast potential for future development. The authors challenge the traditional idea that the oil displacement surfactant must have ultra low interfacial tension. By changing the wettability of reservoir rock as main target, the glycolipid biosurfactant compounded system was developed by enzyme-catalyzed method in laboratory, and a series of experiments had been done combining with reservoir physical measurement. The properties of the active system were characterized by interfacial characters, disbonded, seepage characteristics, antibiotic property, and oil displacement efficiency.
