The invention concerns an aqueous viscoelastic fluid for use in the recovery of hydrocarbons. According to the invention, the aqueous viscoelastic fluid comprises a monomer, a dimer or an oligomer of a viscoelastic surfactant able to form a viscoelastic gel under downhole conditions, said surfactant comprising a hydrophobic tail and a hydrophilic head, and being of the following formulae: R—X—Y—Z where R is the hydrophobic tail of the surfactant, Z is the hydrophilic head of the surfactant, said hydrophilic head being charged, X is a stabilising group and Y chain is a linear, saturated or unsaturated, hydrocarbon chain of 1, 2 or 3 carbon atoms or a branched, saturated or unsaturated hydrocarbon chain wherein the main chain is of 1, 2 or 3 carbon atoms, possibly incorporating an aromatic ring.
本发明涉及一种用于回收碳氢化合物的水性粘弹性流体。根据本发明,该水性粘弹性流体包括粘弹性表面活性剂的单体、二聚体或寡聚体,该粘弹性表面活性剂能够在井下条件下形成粘弹性凝胶,该表面活性剂包括一个疏水尾和一个亲水头,其化学式如下:R—X—Y—Z,其中R是表面活性剂的疏水尾,Z是表面活性剂的亲水头,该亲水头带电,X是稳定基团,Y链是1、2或3个碳原子的线性、饱和或不饱和的烃链或1、2或3个碳原子的主链为支链、饱和或不饱和的烃链,可能包含一个芳香环。
