This study concerns with the microscopic and macroscopic fluid distribution and flow behavior during water alternating solvent (WAS) injection process to heavy oil using micromodel generated from thin section of a real rock which has rarely attended in the available literature. In this study, a one-quarter five-spot glass micromodel was deployed to examine the effect of flow media topology on microscopic displacements as well as macroscopic efficiency of WAS process. The micromodel was initially saturated with the heavy oil, and then the hydrocarbon solvent and water were injected alternately into it. The observations confirmed that WAS injection scheme is an effective method for the recovery of the significant amount of residual oil. Using solvent as the leading batch in WAS scheme can really improve the oil recovery by increasing the amount of microscopic sweep efficiency in flow paths, where the molecular diffusion in solvent-heavy oil system occurs. Presence of connate water in WAS scheme can improve the recovery efficiency especially at higher water saturations. Heterogeneity of the medium caused the water to be distributed better in the medium, but the amount of residual oil in the flow area is going to be increased. Small precipitates of asphaltene particles due to solvent injection and localized entrapment of the oil due to heterogeneity effects, water blockage, and deadend pores were observed mainly in this process. The results of this study reveals the pore scale events in WAS injection process and will be helpful for developing reliable simulation models.
