An Overview on compound Retention in Porous Media

Sameer Al-Hajri, Syed M. Mahmood

Polymer flooding is a very important increased oil recovery technology introduced in field comes since the late Sixties. The key to a thriving compound flood project depends upon correct estimation of compound retention. The aims of this paper square measure twofold. First, to indicate the mechanism of compound flooding and the way this mechanism is littered with compound retention. supported the literature, the quality quantitative relation considerably will increase as a results of the interactions between the injected compound molecules and also the reservoir rock. Secondly, to produce an improved understanding of the compound retention, we tend to mentioned compound retention varieties, mechanisms, factors promoting or inhibiting compound retention, strategies and modelling techniques used for estimating compound retention
