Simulation of Polymer Chemical Enhanced Oil Recovery in Ghawar Field

Simulation of Polymer Chemical Enhanced Oil Recovery in Ghawar Field

This paper presents a 2D model of the Ghawar field and investigates the flow behavior in the field during secondary and tertiary recoveries using a simplified well scheme. For the latter, the focus is on chemical Enhanced Oil Recovery (EOR), using polymer solutions. The difference in efficiency betw...
