Abstract: Numerical simulation of ASP process has so many input parameters and restraints. In the case study over the Lower Karamay reservoir in the middle District No.2, Karamay oilfield, the orthogonal process and tertiary design applied for the first time to furthur verify the laboratory study results and to examine the pilot plan. The results indicated by using the ASP process oil recovery can increase by more than 18%. The evidence supports its practical applicability.

Key words: Composite flooding, Orthogonal process, Tertiary design, Numerical simulation, Computer application, Recovery
