ABSTRACT An oil recovery method is disclosed which uses a particular class of alkylaryl sulfonate surfactants. The surfactants are derived from an extracted aromatic feedstock consisting essentially of benzene, toluene, xylenes, and lesser amounts of ethylbenzene, trimethylbenzenes, and tetra- methylbenzenes. The aromatic feedstock is then alkylated with linear .alpha.-olefins to favor second-carbon attachment, and sulfonated to result in surfactants having high oil solubilization parameters and whose phase behavior is substantially independent of temperature over 120°-250° Fahrenheit.
