Aim To explore the principle of downhole low frequency vibration for EOR. Methods By using the theories of conservation of mass, of energy, Darcy's law and hydrokinetics, the mechanical model of oil layer fluid under the function of low frequency vibrated wave was studied. With the combination of indoor experiment and the numerical simulation, the effect of downhole low frequency vibration on oil viscosity, interfacial tension, capillary pressure, producing water cut and the rising velocity of it was studied quantitatively. Results The downhole low frequency vibration technology can enhance oil well production up to 10% - 25%, thin out the crude obviously, lower the interfacial intention within 1 - 2mN/m, lower water cut about 10% and the rising velocity of it. Conclusion The EOR technology contributes to the fluid physical property and the reservoir characteristics. The applied effect and feasibility of the EOR technology in the oil fields are positive.
