Abstract
Numerous laboratory experiments and field cases show that even very small amount of oil in injected water can cause severe injectivity damage. Although injectivity decline caused by oil droplets has been studied experimentally, there is still lack of an easy-to-use and widely accepted model to predict the decline behavior. In this work, we developed an analytical model to predict the time-dependent progress of the water permeability reduction in linear flow by analyzing experimental data obtained from linear core flooding.
