- Abstract
- Complex geological properties of oil reservoirs affect productivity of chemical flooding. Presence of bottom-water aquifer combined with heterogeneous reservoirs has been regarded as a problem which brings out reduction of recovery factor and high water-cut. A numerical reservoir simulator is used to investigate effects of aquifer on the performance of chemical flooding. By including the effects of bottom-water aquifer, productivity decreases significantly compared with that from non-aquifer case. Results from this study emphasize the importance of an accurate assessment of performance before implementing chemical flooding, especially in unfavorable condition such as bottom-water aquifer.
