North Stanley Polymer Demonstration Project. Final summary report

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:5367178
In February 1976, a fresh water preflush was injected into the North Stanley Polymer Demonstration Project, followed by a polymer solution until June 1977 which was chased by a fresh water after flush. A subsequent injection of produced water has been resumed to complete the injection program. Efforts were made to accelerate the change in injection profiles and to decrease per well injection rates by Channelblock treatments and by reducing the injection plant discharge pressures. Total oil production peaked at 660 BPD in January 1977. It slowly declined the remainder of the year to 637 BPD. Subsequent to March 1978, oil production has declined more rapidly and currently the rate of decline is 6.25% per year. As of January 1, 1980, the cumulative production since July 1, 1975 is as follows: (1) gross oil 923,574 barrels; (2) tertiary oil 144,974 barrels; and (3) water produced 57,854,282 barrels.
