Exptl. studies are conducted in order to elucidate the mechanisms of monoethanolamide responsible for synergism on lowering interfacial tension and decreasing loss due to adsorption on surface of reservoir sand and precipitation with multivalent cations in model oil/water/surfactants/brine systems. The interfacial tensions between solutions containing crude oil and monoethanolamide, petroleum sulfonates, or mixture of monoethanolamide and petroleum sulfonates at different ratios are studied without any alkali added in the solution The results show significant synergic effect between monoethanolamide and petroleum sulfonates can reduce the interfacial tension to ultralow. Adsorption isotherms of monoethanolamide, petroleum sulfonates and mixture solution are determined to assess the effect of monoethanolamide on reducing the loss of petroleum sulfonates in formation. Static adsorption experiments indicate that the loss of petroleum sulfonates for adsorption and precipitation can be reduced on a great degree when monoethanolamide is mixed with petroleum sulfonates. The core-flooding tests show that the enhanced oil recovery with the formulation of surfactants of 0.3 wt% petroleum sulfonates and 0.2 wt% monoethanolamide can be increased by 26.6% without any alkali added in the flooding solution
