Innovative Energy Technologies Program project 03-055 : advanced alkali-surfactant-polymer process

Description

Husky Oil Operations Limited implemented the first field-wide Alkaline-Surfactant-Polymer (ASP) Flood using surfactants derived from renewable resources on January 23, 2008. Original incremental production and oil recovery factor estimates were not reached as of 2012. The primary cause of this project performing below forecast was the use of restored core instead of fresh core in lab work to select the chemicals. Uncertainties about geology have also played a role in the lower than expected results.
