Abstract
The role of IOR/EOR technologies at oil and gas fields is gradually increasing and they form a mainstay to preserve the existing equilibrium between production and the global demand. Thermodynamic interpretation of displacement processes is a consistent basis to classify the EOR methods and anticipate their inherent efficiency. The conclusions confirm the high potential of chemical IOR/EOR methods in the 21st century.
