_ This article, written by JPT Technology Editor Chris Carpenter, contains highlights of paper SPE 215058, “A Systematic Review of the Largest ASP Flood Project in the World: From Laboratory to Pilots and Field Application,” by Yunan Wei, SPE, Xiaoguang Lu, SPE, and Jianhong Xu, SPE, C&C Reservoirs, et al. The paper has not been peer reviewed. _ The complete paper presents a systematic review of the largest alkaline-surfactant-polymer (ASP) flood project in the world, applied in the largest oil field in China. First, reservoir and fluid characteristics are highlighted to understand heterogeneity of the reservoir. Next, project history is summarized, including laboratory studies, pilot tests, industrial-scale tests, and fieldwide application. Finally, typical ASP flood performance and reservoir management measures from over 30 years of experience are presented. Performances of ASP flood and polymer floods in the same field also are compared. Introduction In the La-Sa-Xing Field, ASP flooding was studied in the laboratory from 1987 to 1993 and followed by five small-scale pilots from 1994 to 1999, all successfully achieving incremental recoveries of approximately 20% stock-tank oil initially in place (STOIIP). As a result, industrial-scale pilots were conducted from 2000 to 2007, resulting in increased production by ASP flooding from 3,887 to greater than 19,000 BOPD in 2007. Fieldwide ASP expansion was launched in December 2007. By 2021, the ASP-flooded blocks registered a STOIIP of 1.9823 billion bbl. Daily production was approximately 96,000 BOPD through approximately 9,650 wells. Average incremental recovery factor was 20% STOIIP with waterflooding and 8% with polymer flooding, providing an ultimate recovery factor of 60%. Cumulative oil production by ASP flooding had reached 316 million bbl by 2021, making it the largest ASP flooding project in the world. Geological Background and Reservoir Characteristics The La-Sa-Xing Field is in the north of the Songliao Basin of northeast China, comprising the majority of the Daqing field complex. The field was placed onstream in 1960. The hydrocarbon-bearing reservoir has a gross thickness of 1,377 ft and a net thickness of 394 ft. Net pay averages 150 ft. Initial reservoir pressure ranges from 1,523 to 2,585 psi. Reservoir temperature varies from 113 to 122°F. Crude oil has an API gravity of 33°, a viscosity of 8.5–10.3 cp at reservoir conditions, an initial gas/oil ratio of 258 scf/STB, and a bubblepoint pressure of 1,291 psi. Formation water salinity is 7000 mg/L. Reservoir rock initially shows water or weak oil wettability. Depending on permeability, three types of reservoir sand (Type I, Type II, and Type III) have been identified. Currently, ASP flooding is mainly applied to Type I sand, with partial application to Type II Sand.
