According to numerous laboratory experiments and field applications, polymer flooding can effectively modify the liquid absorption profile and increase the sweep efficiency, thereby enhancing the oil recovery. However, long-term injection of polymers decreases the effective permeability of the reservoir and plugs the formation pores, resulting in irreversible reservoir damage. In the development process, polymer types and concentrations must be selected according to the reservoir to avoid problems such as plugging of the formation pores. This study was aimed at clarifying the degree of plugging and the injection limit of the reservoir when a salt-resistant polymer (SRP) is used in production processes of the Daqing Oilfield. To this end, oil displacement experiments, dynamic and static adsorption experiments, and SEM observations were performed using representative reservoir fluid and core samples. The static adsorption of “medium-molecular” SRP reached equilibrium after 36 h, and the saturated adsorption capacity was 3.56 mg/g, which was approximately 2–5 times the dynamic adsorption capacity. For medium-molecular SRP, with a molecular mass of 7 million, the lower limit of the core permeability was 20–40 mD. When the permeability was less than 100 mD, the SRP concentration injected into the core could not exceed 900 mg/L. The oil displacement capacity of SRP decreased owing to the macromolecular hydration radius and the strong aggregation effect of SRP. Polymer adsorption and the retention of sand-carrying critically decreased water permeability. This study provides insights into SRP flooding under different geological conditions in the Daqing Oilfield and can help clarify the molecular mass and concentration of polymers with changes in the reservoir conditions.
