Gas injection is the second largest enhanced oil recovery process,next only to the thermal method used in heavy oil fields.To increase the extent of the reservoir contacted by the injected gas,the gas is generally injected intermittently with water.This mode of injection is called water-alternating-gas(WAG).This study deals with a new immiscible water alternating gas(IWAG) EOR technique,“hot IWAG” which includes combination of thermal,solvent and sweep techniques.In the proposed method CO2 will be superheated above the reservoir temperature and instead of normal temperature water,hot water will be used.Hot CO2 and hot water will be alternatively injected into the sand packs.A laboratory test was conducted on the fractured and conventional sand packs.Slugs of water and CO2 with a low and constant rate were injected into the sand packs alternatively;slug size was 0.05 PV.Recovery from each sand pack was monitored and after that hot water and hot CO2 were injected alternatively under the same conditions and increased oil recovery from each sand pack and breakthrough were measured.Experimental results showed that the injection of hot WAG could significantly recover residual oil after WAG injection in conventional and fractured sand packs.
