EOR or enhanced recovery methods it has used worldwide to extract the remaining oil in the reservoirs, after primary and secondary stage of production has come to end. The polymer solution injection in the reservoir improves sweep efficiency, reduces water mobility while increasing viscosity inducing an enhanced oil recovery. Production in the Rio Ariari Block been characterized as complicated, this due to the presence of an active aquifer, and the nature of highly viscous fluids. This work evaluates the technically and financially implementation of an injection of polymer solutions program in Rio Ariari block using the CMG STARS.
