Foam‑forming anionic surfactants: comparative application of sulfanol and AOS in the oil and gas industry

Sulfanol (alkylbenzene sulfonate, ABS) and alpha-olefin sulfonate (AOS), both belonging to the class of anionic surfactants, have been widely used in the oil and gas industry for many years.Based on an analysis of scientific publications and patents from 1977 to 2026, this paper examines the industrial application of both surfactant classes in chemical enhanced oil recovery (surfactant, Библиографическое описание: Шарипов Б.Ш.
