Effect of hydrolysis of polyacrylamide on solution viscosity, polymer retention and flow resistance properties

Conference Martin, F D ; Sherwood, N S - Soc. Pet. Eng. AIME, Pap.; (United States)

Penetration of a low mobility polymer slug into a reservoir is limited in part by the adsorption of the polymer onto the rock surfaces or entrapment of the polymer in restricted flow channels. However, the behavior of partially hydrolyzed polyacrylamide can depend on both the nature and extent of hydrolysis of the polymer molecule. Laboratory investigations of the viscosity and adsorption characteristics of polyacrylamide hydrolyzed to varying degrees with potassium hydroxide are reported. Sand-pack flow tests indicate that the adsorption of polyacrylamide in porous media decreases with increasing hydrolysis. Resistance factor curves display the effects of viscosity and polymer retentionmore »« less

An experimental study of the in-situ gelation of chromium(+3)-polyacrylamide polymer in porous media

Conference Huang, C G ; Green, D W ; Wilhite, G P - Soc. Pet. Eng. AIME, Pap.; (United States)

Gelled polymers are being used increasingly as reservoir flow control agents to improve the water-to-oil ratio in waterflooding. To date, little has been published in the open literature on the insitu gelation of polymers in porous media. This work was undertaken to study the process of in-situ gelation of a gel system consisting of a polyacrylamide polymer, sodium dichromate and thiourea. The experiments consisted of continously injecting gel solutions into one-foot unconsolidated sandpacks. Pressure distributions along the flow direction were used to interpret the nature of gelation in the porous media. It was found that gelation in porous media occuredmore »« less
An experimental study of conformance treatments using crosslinked polyacrylamide polymer

Miscellaneous Liang, J T

The objective of this study was to identify the correlation among the gel strength, redox concentration, the permeability of the porous medium before treatment and the extent of permeability reduction after treatment. The gelling solution system employed consisted of CYANAGLE 100 partially hydrolyzed polyacrylamide polymer, sodium dichromate as the source of hexavalent chromium cations, and a reducing agent. Gelation and rheological studies were first performed to identify gelling solutions having proper gelation time and gel strength combination for subsequent in-situ gelation studies. The results indicate that the gelation time and gel strength combination of a gelling solution can be controlledmore »« less
An experimental study of the in-situ gelation of chromium(+3)/polyacrylamide polymer in porous media

Journal Article Huang, C G ; Green, D W ; Willhite, G P - SPE (Society of Petroleum Engineers) Reserv. Eng.; (United States)

Gelled polymers are being used increasingly as reservoir flow control agents to improve the water-to-oil ratio (WOR) in waterflooding. To date, little has been published in the literature on the in-situ gelation of polymers in porous media. This work was undertaken to study the process of in-situ gelation of a gel system consisting of a polyacrylamide polymer, sodium dichromate, and thiourea. The experiments consisted of continuous injection of gel solutions into 1-ft (0.3-m) unconsolidated sandpacks. Pressure distributions along the flow direction were used to interpret the nature of gelation in the porous media. The authors found the gelation occurred muchmore »« less
