polymer flooding
-
The future of the heavy-oil business in Alaska looks more promising than ever after a 2-year pilot delivers technical and economic success.
-
This paper describes measures undertaken in the discipline of production technology to prepare for one of the largest field redevelopment projects undertaken by the operator in Austria.
-
This paper summarizes the performance of a polymerflooding pilot conducted in an unconsolidated sandstone reservoir in Oman.
-
This paper aims to clarify misconceptions regarding polymerflooding implementation based on theory and practice in China.
-
This paper describes how a better understanding of the connection between the well and the reservoir through use of fiber-optic sensors can improve reservoir simulation models, decision-making, and well-performance evaluation.
-
In this study, the authors show that high-temperature, high-salinity polymers can exhibit low adsorption and retention in carbonate reservoir rock at ultrahigh salinity conditions.
-
The authors demonstrate that alternating injection of polymer and water is effective and economical for heavy oil fields, even offshore.

SponsoredPolymer flooding increases the RF up to 20% at $3 to $6 per extra bbl of oil. It also contributes towards reducing CO2 emission by 3–6 times per bbl. It’s a proven technology with more than 300 projects worldwide. SNF offers modular plug and pump facilities connected to existing infrastructure.
