Expanding a successful polymer flood

Vertical and horizontal injectors

pouring a viscous polymerThe AER recently approved an expansion of a successful ASP flood. All the details of the lab studies and field pilot are included in the application. They predict an additional recovery range of 10-13%. Sensitivity of polymer to brine water hardness and reservoir temperature was examined. They propose a mixture of vertical and horizontal polymer injector wells. We found this information using AppIntel.

Each AER application contains your neighbor's perspective on the exploitation of oil and gas formations. Applications contain more technical data even than SPE papers.
