Summary:A process for enhanced oil recovery using anionic surfactants selected from esters of alpha - sulfocarboxylic acids, more particularly from the mono-and di-esters of the formula: wherein R is a monovalent hydrocarbon radical R' a monovalent hydrocarbon radical or a (poly-) oxyalkyl radical, R'' a divalent radical or a (poly)oxyalkylene and M<(+)> is an alkali metal cation, an ammonium ion or an alkaline-earth metal half-cation (1 DIVIDED 2 M<2+>). The esters of the alpha -sulfocarboxylic acids may be used as aqueous solutions or microemulsions. They are effective even in the presence of oil field waters having high salinity, particularly a high content of divalent cations (calcium and/or magnesium).
