Achoimre:To investigate the energy conduction behavior of polymer gel profile control and flooding in low-permeability reservoirs, a parallel dual-tube displacement experiment was conducted to simulate reservoirs with different permeability ratios. Injection schemes included constant rates from 0.40 to 1.20 mL/min and dynamic injection from 1.20 to 0.40 mL/min. Pressure monitoring and shunt analysis were used to evaluate profile control and recovery performance. The results show that polymer gel preferentially enters high-permeability layers, transmitting pressure more rapidly than in low-permeability zones. At 1.20 mL/min, pressure onset at 90 cm in the high-permeability layer occurs earlier than in the low-permeability layer. Higher injection rates accelerate pressure buildup. At 0.80 mL/min, permeability contrast is minimized, achieving a 22.96% recovery rate in low-permeability layers. The combination effect of 1.2–0.4 mL/min is the best in dynamic injection, with the difference in shunt ratio of 9.6% and the recovery rate of low permeability layer increased to 31.23%. Polymer gel improves oil recovery by blocking high-permeability channels, expanding the swept volume, and utilizing viscoelastic properties.
