Abstract

To determine the performance of terrafloc polymer, we must first know the characteristics of the polymer because all of these will affect the increase in oil recovery, many factors affect the performance of the polymer. Here using a micromodel to see the movement of oil in 2D, where the sweep efficiency of the polymer injection can be seen clearly. The micromodel flooding method was carried out in a series of studies, starting with micromodel preparation, followed by waterflooding and polymer injection at a certain injection flow rate. After that, it was analyzed using digital image analysis (DIA) how much the increase in oil recovery after injection of terrafloc polymer was carried out. This study focuses on the analysis of increased oil recovery by using different types of oil and injected with terrafloc polymers using the micromodel flooding method.
