Conformance Improvement
conformance improvement products are temporary or permanent particulates used to improve sweep efficiency in reservoirs with fracturing, faulting, or other high permeability channels. These specialized diverting agents are manufactured uniquely based on specific reservoir requirements to provide a plugging mechanism for high conductivity channels, allowing
products to be used in conjunction with other more traditional conformance improvement systems. These products are designed for periodic deployment on an as-needed basis through either the existing injection equipment or (in the case of more-severe channeling) via external pumping equipment.
Key Design Factors
Low cost application on as-needed basis
Variable lifespan (including permanent) options available
Precision manufactured to exact specifications needed
Does not alter chemistry of injected fluids
Easily removed from reservoir if desired
Benefits and Outcomes
Improved sweep efficiency
Increased injection pressure
Enhanced performance of foams, gels, resins, etc.
