Abstract

The subject of discussion of the article below is polymer flooding as an EOR (enhanced oil recovery) technique considered here within the context of Kazakhstan’s depleted oil-fields exploitation. The underlying factor for considerable residual hydrocarbon saturation observed in the productive reservoirs of the majority of Kazakhstan’s oil fields connected with their stratified heterogeneous structures. Such kind of Oil Reservoirs require additional developments comprising new technologies promoting enhanced oil-recovery. Keywords: viscosity; inhomogeneity; polymer flooding; polyacrylamide; degree of inhomogeneity; permeability; catholyte; trim.
