The imbibition of water with surfactants, including spontaneous imbibition and forced imbibition, is of great significance for enhanced oil recovery (EOR) in tight sandstone reservoirs. Up to now, the migration behaviors of the water and the oil in pores of different sizes, as well as the mechanisms...
