TITLE OF EXPERIMENT
EXPERIMENT TO DETERMINE WATERFLOODING
AIM OF THE EXPERIMENTTo obtain the fractional flow curve using the
imbibition process in a horizontal porous medium.
REQUIREMENTS Pipe, pressure pipe, A tap, stopper, gravel, bucket, graduated bucket, water, A stop watch, oil(diesel).
SETUP OF THE EXPERIMENT
Volume of oil(diesel) in the pipe = 1.75l = 1.75x
PROCEDURE• A Pipe of length 0.5m was completely filled with
gravel and well saturated with oil(diesel).• One end of the pipe was connected to A bucket
containing water.• The other end of the pipe was connected to a tap • A graduated bucket was placed at the end of the
tap so as to collect the displaced oil.• A stopper was used to control the flow rate of
water and oil from the tap.
• The stopper was open at different time intervals, and
the volumes oil and water displaced were recorded as shown on the table below.
SERIES TIME /s VOLUME OF OIL/L
VOLUME OF WATER/L
1 5.4 0.3 0.2
2 20.6 0.4 0.6
3 31.5 0.5 1.0
4 45.9 0.7 1.6
Flow rate
Result obtained (calculation)
The flow rate of water Q= = 3.7x/s = = 2.9x/s
= = 3.2x/s
= = 3.5x/s
The flow rate of oil Q= = 5.5x/s = = 1.9x/s
= = 1.6x/s
= = 1.5x/s
The fractional flow of water () =
= =0.40
= =0.60
= =0.70
= =0.70
The saturation of water = 1 = 1 - But = and = -
= = 0.8 = 1 - 0.8 = 0.2
= = 0.77 = 1 - 0.77 = 0.23
= = 0.71 = 1 – 0.71 = 0.29
= = 0.60 = 1 – 0.60 = 0.4
