摘要
In-situ gelation of aqueous sulfomethylated resorcinol formaldehyde (SMRF) system inBerea core has been investigated. Two sets of displacement experiments were conducted with thissystem (containing 5% NaCl, 0. 036% CaCl_2. 2H_2O). The brine permeabilities of the coreswere reduced significantly from about 600 to 0.1 md. The in-situ gelation in Berea core occurreda little bit earlier than gelation anticipated from bulk test in the experiments. The gel time waseasier to control at initial pH between 6 and 8. During injection of SMRF system, the apparentviscosity was less than 1 mPa·s at 41℃.
