Previous issue date: 2009-08-21 / In heavy oil fields there is a great difficulty of the oil to flow from the reservoir to the well, making its production more difficult and with high cost. Most of the original volumes of
oil found in the world are considered unrecoverable by the use of the current methods. The injection of micellar solutions has a direct action in the oil interfacial properties, resulting
in an enhanced oil recovery. The objective of this research was the study and selection of micellar solutions with ability to decrease the interfacial interactions between fluids and
reservoir formation, increasing oil production. The selected micellar solutions were obtained using commercial surfactants and surfactants synthesized in laboratory, based on the intrinsic properties of these molecules, to use in the enhanced oil recovery. Petroleum Reservoirs were simulated using sandstone plugs from Botucatu formation. Experiments
with conventional and enhanced oil recovery techniques were accomplished. The obtained results showed that all micellar solutions were able to enhance oil recovery, and the
micellar solution prepared with a SB anionic surfactant, at 2% KCl solution, showed the best recovery factor. It was also accomplished an economic analysis with the SB surfactant
solution. With the injection of 20% porous volume of micellar solution, followed by brine injection, the increment in petroleum recovery can reach 81% recovery factor in the 3rd
porous volume injected. The increment in the total cost by the addition of surfactant to the injection water represents R$ 7.50/ton of injected fluid / Em campos de ?leos pesados h? uma grande dificuldade de escoamento do ?leo do reservat?rio at? o po?o, tornando sua produ??o mais dif?cil e de alto custo. A maior parte dos volumes originais de ?leo encontrados no mundo ? considerada irrecuper?vel pelos m?todos convencionais. A inje??o de solu??es micelares propicia uma atua??o direta nas
propriedades interfaciais do ?leo, provocando um aumento da recupera??o. O objetivo desse trabalho foi estudar e selecionar solu??es micelares capazes de diminuir as intera??es interfaciais entre os fluidos e a forma??o, visando o aumento da produ??o. A sele??o das solu??es micelares foi feita a partir de tensoativos comerciais e sintetizados em laborat?rio, baseado em propriedades intr?nsecas dessas mol?culas, para se realizar uma recupera??o avan?ada de petr?leo. Reservat?rios de petr?leo foram simulados a partir de plugs de arenito da forma??o Botucatu Bacia do Paran?. Foram realizados, dentre outros, ensaios de recupera??o convencional e avan?ada de petr?leo com as solu??es micelares. Os principais resultados mostram que todas as solu??es micelares foram capazes de recuperar o ?leo, e que
a solu??o micelar preparada com tensoativo ani?nico SB, em solu??o 2% KCl, apresentou maior fator de recupera??o dentre as demais. Foi realizada, tamb?m, uma an?lise econ?mica, com a solu??o de tensoativo SB. Injetando-se 20% do volume poroso de solu??o micelar, seguida de inje??o de salmoura, o acr?scimo de recupera??o de petr?leo pode chegar a uma fra??o de recupera??o de 81% ao longo do 3? volume poroso injetado. O acr?scimo do custo do tensoativo ? ?gua de inje??o representa um valor de R$ 7,50/tonelada de fluido injetado
