Worldwide experience shows that óil production from thin onder gas cup zones with active aquifer is not efficient doe to quick gas/water breakthrough and depends on oil column thickness and the ratio between gas cap and oil part thickness . New WAG Technology básed on injection of water solution of oil/water soluble polymers for efficient oil production from thin (5-15m) oil rime have been developed . Results of lab studies and simulation are discuseed . New WAG technology can be used for production of both, light and heavy oils . For heavy oils this technology can be considered to be as al#emative to thermal EOR .
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
