The oil and gas industry constantly seeks innovative solutions to maximize extraction efficiency and optimize operational performance. In this pursuit, Anionic Polyacrylamide (APAM) has emerged as a critical chemical additive, offering significant benefits in enhanced oil recovery (EOR) and as a component in drilling fluids. As a dedicated supplier of high-performance polymers, we provide APAM that meets the demanding conditions of oilfield operations.

APAM in Enhanced Oil Recovery (EOR)

In mature oilfields, APAM is primarily utilized in polymer flooding, a form of EOR. Its key function is to increase the viscosity of the injected water. This enhanced viscosity:

  • Improves Sweep Efficiency: By making the injected water thicker, APAM reduces water channeling through more permeable zones of the reservoir. This ensures that the injected fluid sweeps a larger volume of oil, pushing it towards production wells more effectively.
  • Increases Oil Displacement: The increased viscosity helps maintain better microscopic displacement efficiency, pushing more oil out of the porous rock matrix.
  • Reduces Water Mobility Ratio: APAM helps control the mobility of water relative to oil, which is crucial for maximizing oil recovery.

Our Anionic Polyacrylamide is specifically formulated to withstand the harsh reservoir conditions, including high temperatures, pressures, and saline environments often encountered in EOR projects. Its ability to maintain viscosity and stability under these stresses makes it an invaluable component for maximizing oil production.

APAM in Drilling Fluids and Other Oilfield Applications

Beyond EOR, APAM finds application in drilling operations as a shale inhibitor and viscosifier. It helps:

  • Stabilize Wellbores: By preventing clay swelling and dispersion, APAM contributes to wellbore stability, reducing the risk of costly drilling problems.
  • Control Fluid Loss: APAM can help reduce the filtration of drilling fluid into the formation, preserving the integrity of the reservoir.
  • Rheology Modification: It contributes to the desired rheological properties of drilling fluids, ensuring efficient cuttings transport and lubrication.
