CORE FLOODING FOR ELECTRICALLY IMPROVED OIL RECOVERY STUDY

Abstract: a first electrical resistance of a core sample placed in a core sample holder is measured. the core sample is flushed with oil to displace gas and saturate the core sample with oil. a second electrical resistance of the core sample saturated with oil is measured. the core sample is heated and pressurized. a third electrical resistance of the core sample is measured. the core sample is flushed with an aqueous fluid to displace at least a portion of the oil from the core sample. a fourth electrical resistance of the core sample is measured. an amount of oil displaced from the core sample is measured.
