Polymer - hot and salty

fry panPolymer floods can improve heavy oil recovery. But what about high temperature and high salinity conditions?

Without AppIntel, you can't find out how polymer floods have faired in challenging environments. By using AppIntel, you can find all the polymer flood application documents.

One operator applied to move from fresh water to salty produced water to mix with her polymer. In her application, she discussed the affect of water temperature and salinity on her polymer flooding project. She also discussed polymer type, polymer concentration, and ultimate recovery factor.

Help yourself to the pertinent application pages through our inexpensive, self-serve application documents library.

Use AppIntel to find polymer flood field details

Application documents allow you to drill into all field pilot detail. You can find other's successes -- and their failures. How would you find them without AppIntel?

You can find out what happens after a flood is complete.

You can see operators that are still implementing floods even in this commodity price environment.

But what happens after a polymer flood is complete?

Check out what other operators when a polymer flood is complete. After a water flood, the operator just shuts the pool in. But after a polymer flood, a pool has a whole new life.

You can find out all about it from their AER applications.

Are polymer floods still economic at current oil prices?

Even in this commodity price environment, the 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%.

In fact, starting a polymer flood may be one of the cheapest ways of adding reserves in this commodity price environment.

You can find out all about it from their AER application.

Check out the results

Textbooks and classes may help you understand a bit about the general principles of flooding. But if you really want to understand how floods perform in the field, you must read others' flood application documents. They report progress on floods to the regulator. Each application is ground truthed to actual UWIs. Each application is adjudicated by a picky regulator.
