  • Which polymers are used in oil fields?
  • Polymers, such as partially hydrolyzed polyacrylamide (HPAM), are widely used in oil fields to enhance or improve the recovery of crude oil from the reservoirs. It works by increasing the viscosity of the injected water, thus improving its mobility and oil recovery.
  • Can alumina/ graphene oxide induced hydrolysed polyacrylamide (HPAM) polymer enhance oil recovery?
  • This paper investigates the potential of Alumina/Graphene Oxide (AGO) nanocomposite induced hydrolysed polyacrylamide (HPAM) polymer as a nanopolymer suspension for enhanced oil recovery in sandstone reservoirs. AGO nanocomposite was synthesised and characterised.
  • Which polymers are used in enhancing oil recovery?
  • PAM and HPAM are the most extensively used polymers in enhancing oil recovery due to their customized properties and wide availability.
  • What are oil displacement technologies?
  • Oil displacement technologies are widely studied and applied because they can extract more oil in depleted reservoirs or recover unconventional ones. This study introduces research methods and mechanisms of four oil displacement technologies, i.e., water flooding, chemical flooding, gas flooding, and steam flooding.
