Four pattern-scale CO2-foam field trials were conducted to determine the effectiveness of foam in reducing CO2 channeling, to evaluate the economic potential of the process, and to develop application criteria and procedures. The trials were conducted under various process and geologic conditions so that the resulting technology would be applicable in a number of different CO2 floods. Two different surfactants, Rhodapex (formerly Alipal) CD-128 and ChaserCD-1045, and two injection methods, alternating vs. coinjection of CO2 and surfactant, were tested in San Andres (west Texas) and platform carbonate (southeast Utah) reservoirs, In all, 161,000 Ibm of active surfactant was injected in the four field trials, with one well undergoing foam treatment for as long as 18 months. The treatments resulted in a significant reduction in gas production and indications of increased oil production. The total cost of the four treatments (excluding labor and overhead) was $700,000.
