Abstract

This study presented the effect of polymer adsorption-induced permeability reduction on oil recovery, particularly in low permeability system. The polymer injecting experiments were conducted in a quarter of five-spot pattern with concentrations generally applied. Especially, by using the field oriented two-dimensional sandstone, we attempted to analyze the combined effect of polymer retention for concentration and high velocity near injection on oil recovery.
