Study Influence Arabic Gum on Improved Oil Recovery with Gaberoun Water Leak by Using Spontaneous Imbibition Tests For Sandstone Core Samples

In the life of oil production can defined into three steps, primary, secondary, and tertiary. Primary recovery include natural mechanisms such as rock expansion, gas cap, solution gas, secondary that use injection water or to maintenance reservoir pressure, enhanced (tertiary recovery) special materials is chemicals fluids, injection, polymer injection. this research done Arabic gum flooding by using Gaberoun Water Leak & distillate soluble material make a comparison between two different water, scenarios concentration, first scenario with concentration 1%wt, second 3%wt third 5%wt. Imbibition test used for study Sandstone core samples aged in long time period reach about 3 weeks, results Recovery obtained oven temperature from 30℃ 70℃. The are not very good without any change on sandstone samples, 65, 62, 74 1wt%, 3wt% 5wt% Leak.
