ABSTRACT: The field
test of high concentration polymer flooding has the characteristics of high
cost, long cycle and irreversibility of the reservoir development process. In order to ensure
the best development effect of the development block, this paper simulated and
calculated the high concentration polymer flooding development case of the
polymer flooding pilot test area through numerical simulation research, and
selected the best case through the comparison of various development
indicators. The simulation results showed that the larger the polymer dosage
and the higher the concentration, the better the oil displacement effect. The
best injection method in the construction process was the overall injection of
high concentration polymer. The test area should implement high concentration
polymer oil displacement as soon as possible. The research results provided
theoretical guidance for the future development and management of the pilot
area.
