12 th European Symposium on Improved Oil Recovery Kazan 8-10 September 2003 Potential of Silicone Compounds in Restriction of Water Production in Gas Wells I. LAKATOS J. TÓTH J. LAKATOS-SZABÓ K. BAUER Research Institute of Applied Chemistry Univ. Miskolc Hungary B. KOSZTIN Gy. PALÁSTHY F. Hungarian Oil and Gas Company Hungary Gas production from gas fields and underground gas storage is usually accompanied by substantial water production. The high water production often deteriorates the recovery efficiency and hamper maintaining an environmentally friendly operation. Therefore during the past decades intensive R&D activity has been made to develop a viable method to
