Theory and Technology of Multiscale Dispersed Particle Gel for In-Depth Profile Control systematically introduces the preparation principles and methods of DPG particles: an innovative technology that overcomes the drawbacks of traditional polymer gel in enhancing oil recovery in high water cut mature oilfields. The book fully covers the industrialized production process of DPG particles based on the successful lines established in China, outlining how these can be established in even complex construction environments such as the desert or sea.

Specifically, three new technologies based on multiscale DPG particles, a soft heterogeneous compound flooding system, DPG strengthened polymer/surfactant combination flooding system, and three-phase foam, are detailed. The book also analyzes the in-depth profile control and displacement mechanism and synergy mechanism of these three systems.

This book provides petroleum scientists and engineers, researchers in EOR, graduate-level petroleum engineering students, oilfield development scientists, researchers in reservoir physics, and others a practical handbook on this new technology.
