VEC-1

The technology involves the installation of a gel screen acrylamide-based polymers in the near-bottom-hole formation zone in order to align the injectivity profile of injection wells and increase the flooding coverage.

The redistribution of filtration flows  – polymer flooding

Oil displacement with polymer solutions is an effective method of enhancing oil recovery by increasing the coverage of water flooding in volume (through the redistribution of flows of varying permeability interlayers) and area (due to the increase in resistance in the most permeable interlayers), as well as due to increased displacement efficiency.

The development of polymer flooding technology for specific field conditions is carried out on the basis of the complex physical and chemical, filtration research and mathematical modeling.

ПАПС

This method is applied, both in early and late stages of fields development.

Specially selected surface-active compounds with without polyacrylamide for the specific conditions of terrigenous reservoir provide increased displacement efficiency due to ultra-low interfacial tension (below 0.005 mN / m) of aqueous solutions of these compositions, on the border with the oil and increase coverage of reservoir flooding by equalizing the mobility of polymer-surfactant formulations (PAF) with the mobility of the displaced oil.

As a result, the final oil recovery is increased for not less than 15% (abs.) at a later stage fields flooding.

This method is tested on the fields of terrigenous and carbonate reservoirs. It is effective to implement the cyclic injection of PAFP and water.
