Abstract
Polymer is a chemical injection at EOR study that have expected to increasing production oil and gas, the pressing efficiency and good sweeping efficiency so that the oil recovery can be increased after water flooding from the initial oil reserve (OOIP) in the reservoir. This research will carry out the stages of making a hygroscopic polymer that is resistant to EOR conditions. This time the polymer is made using Glycidyl Methacrylate (GMA) as a monomer, Ethylene Dymethacrylate (EDMA) as a croslinker and alcohol group solvent as a porogen and trimethylamine and arginine as active group formers. This polymer is expected to be a polymer that has amine and hydroxyl functionalities and is synthetic organic polymer. The scenarios for variations in polymer concentration are 10 ppm, 20 ppm, and 50 ppm, as well as for variations in salinity of 1000 and 10,000 ppm. Meanwhile, the Trimetylamine concentration was 0.5% and 1%. In this situation, the optimum conditions were obtained at a polymer concentration of 50 ppm with Trimeylamine 1% at a salinity of 10,000 ppm, meaning that there is a linearity relationship between the increase in concentration and the resulting interface interaction. This condition needs to be developed again to get stabilization and ripeability in the repetition process in increasing the production of old wells. The test will be carried out at a temperature of 85˚-C and observations are made of the physical properties of the fluid, including viscosity and interface interaction to seem a comparison of the physical properties of the fluid between the polymer and production water.
