Green Natural Polymer for EOR – Enhanced Oil Recovery
Enhanced Oil Recovery (EOR) – Chemical Injection – Chemical Flooding – Polymer Flooding Chemical flooding is one of the major techniques for Enhanced Oil Recovery (EOR), especially for reservoirs where thermal techniques are not feasible. The most widely used chemical method is polymer flooding. Polymer increases the viscosity of the injected water and reduces permeability of the… Continue reading Green Natural Polymer for EOR – Enhanced Oil Recovery
