Abstract
Alkali-surfactant-alternated-gas (ASAG) alternating injection is a method used to enhance oil recovery. In the water injection stage of the WAG process, chemicals (alkaline-surfactant) are added to the plug. This paper presents a numerical simulation study at the reservoir scale to analyze the influencing factors of ASAG process on improving recovery efficiency. The research results indicate that ASAG process can achieve an ultimate recovery efficiency of 67%, which is approximately 22% higher compared to water flooding. Among the various influencing factors, injection rate, plug volume, and chemical concentration have a significant impact on the recovery efficiency.
