Investigation on influences of polymer solution properties on stress distribution and deformation of residual oil
After water flooding, there is much residual oil left in the pores. This cannot be easily displaced, but polymer flooding is able to achieve this. The use of viscoelastic solutions such as polymer can enhance the oil recovery, because it can increase the sweep volume by improving the mobility ratio...
