Abstract

A wide range of technological processes involved in the extraction, transportation, and storage of oil and gas are associated with technical challenges that affect their overall efficiency. In order to address these issues, technological solutions have been developed based on chemically crosslinked polymer compositions that can form gel structures. These viscoelastic systems are used to improve oil recovery, selectively isolate hydrocarbons from water, and facilitate their transportation. Laboratory studies and computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulations using the FLOW-3D software have confirmed the validity of the power law model for non-Newtonian fluids flowing through cavities and channels with constrictions and expansions. The widespread implementation of these technological solutions in Azerbaijan, Western Siberia, and Vietnam has demonstrated the effectiveness of viscoelastic pigging and separation technologies in increasing oil production and ensuring the efficient transportation of hydrocarbons.
