Abstract:
The method of formation, shape, and characteristics of water cones and water sheaths, which form around experimental oil wells producing oil and water, are described, illustrated, and the effect of these features on the percentage of oil produced with the water illustrated graphically. It is demonstrated that the presence of water sheaths and cones tends to increase the proportion of water produced with oil. Three ways of reducing the vertical and lateral penetration of water into sand around experimental wells are discussed and illustrated. The relative effects of the three methods are shown, and the conclusion is reached that the percentage of oil can be increased and water production reduced by applying physical and chemical principles.
