English term or phrase: miscible drive
Definition from Petex and the University of Texas Austin:
A method of enhanced recovery in which various hydrocarbon solvents or gases (such as propane, LPG, natural gas, carbon dioxide, or a mixture thereof) are injected into the reservoir to reduce interfacial forces between oil and water in the pore channels and thus displace oil from the reservoir rock. See chemical flooding, gas injection.

Example sentence(s):
  • The Fairway oil field in Anderson and Henderson Counties, often described as a model example of present day oil and gas conservation in Texas, is well underway with a secondary recovery system by miscible drive techniques. Energy Citations Database - USA
  • Predictions of reservoir response to the application of gas or solvent are necessary before starting a miscible drive project. digital-earth
  • The five miscible drive fluids are hydrocarbon, solvents, nitrogen, carbon dioxide, enriched hydrocarbon gas and high-pressure hydrocarbon gas. Yale-New Haven Teachers Institute

blandbar förskjutning


Definition from Schlumberger:
Blandbar förskjutning i strävan efter ökad oljeåtervinning

Example sentence(s):
  • En allmän term för injektionsprocesser, som för in blandbara gaser i reservoaren. En blandbar förskjutningsprocess upprätthåller reservoartrycket och förbättrar oljans förskjutning eftersom de interfaciala spänningarna mellan olja och vatten minskar. - Schlumberger

Definition from own experience or research:
Förbättrad utvinning av olja med hjälp av injektion av blandbar gas

Example sentence(s):
  • "At have overblik over metoder og teknologier for forbedret olieindvinding samt deres anvendelse: blandbar og ikke-blandbar gas injektion, WAG, kemisk flooding, in situ forbrænding" - DTI Kemiteknik, Danmark  

Explanation:
Visserligen är exemplet på danska, men borde gå att översätta direkt till svenska :-)
