Improved oil recovery by reducing surfactant adsorption with polyelectrolyte in high saline brine

Surfactant adsorption on reservoir rock is one of the biggest challenges of chemical enhanced oil recovery (cEOR) techniques. This problem can become severe in high saline brine environments. In this work, the efficacy of a polyelectrolyte, polystyrene sulfonate (PSS), as a sacrificial agent for low...
