Abstract:Temperature changes in CO2 foam-fracturing construction can easily affect surfactant foam stability. To investigate the effect of temperature on the foam stability of different types of surfactants, this study measured the foam half-life and viscosity of four typical surfactants, CTAB, LAS-30, HSB1214, and TX-10, using a novel self-designed and built foam performance measurement device. The effects of temperature on foam half-life and viscosity were studied.
