Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	A foam composition includes a foam stabilizer, a foaming agent, a brine, and an inert gas. The foam stabilizer includes graphene. The foaming agent includes a viscoelastic surfactant. The inert gas is in the form of gas bubbles dispersed through a mixture of the foam stabilizer, the foaming agent, and the brine. The foam composition is configured to convert to a gel that is substantially impermeable to fluid flow in response to exposure to downhole conditions of a subterranean zone.
