Abstract

See full text

A viscoelastic polymer such as polyacrylamide is first prehydrated in an aqueous fluid having a low degree of hardness and the prehydrated viscoelastic polymer solution is mixed with hard brine to provide a polymer bank with improved mobility control. This improved mobility control is obtained by mixing the hard brine with the prehydrated viscoelastic polymer at high volume ratios of hard brine to the polymer.
