Waterflooding process employing cationic-nonionic copolymers

摘要

This specification discloses a waterflooding process for producing oil from an oil-containing subterranean formation penetrated by an injection well and a production well. An aqueous solution of a copolymer formed of hydrophobic olefinic segments and cationic aromatic hydrophilic segments is injected into and driven through the formation in the production of oil therefrom.
