Complementary surfactant systems and downhole fluids made using the systems are disclosed along with methods for making and using same, where the surfactant systems include from 0 wt. % to 100 wt. % of a first surfactant subsystem, from 100 wt. % to 0 wt. % of a second surfactant subsystem, and from 0 wt. % to 100 wt. % of a solvent subsystem based on the wt. % of the surfactant subsystems, where the system is tailored to foam the fluid including the analyzed crude and/or condensate. |
