Abstract: Taking the S7 reservoir of SN Oilfield as an example,a study is made of flow and oil displacement process of
surfactant in the complex rock / oil / water system after it enters porous media. Surfactant effects on residual oil include the
following three aspects: emulsion,migration and enrichment. Low interfacial tension system can make the oil disperse,then the
oil droplets become smaller,so it is easy to flow. Experimental studies show,after injection of surfactant,relative permeability
curve changes,phase curve shifts to the right,and liquid phase permeability increases,reducing residual saturation.

Key words: surfactant, two phase flow, interfacial tension, oil displacement efficiency, relative permeability curve
