The problem of injected water channeling along fractures exists in the process of water injection in fractured low permeability reservoir, aimed at this problem, deep profile control technology applies to plug fractures to improve the recovery of low permeability reservoir. In this paper, partially hydrolyzed polyacrylamide (HPAM) is used as water-plugging/profile-modifying agent and phenolic resin as crosslinker agent. Several profile control systems are tested to find the one which is suitable for fractured low permeability reservoirs. The performances of profile control systems are evaluated, and effects of formation water salinity, that of shearing rate and that of temperature on the performance are studied. Finally, in order to study effects of this profile control system on displacing oil, flowability experiment and core displacement experiment are applied. It shows that with the increase of salinty of prepared water and the increase of the shearing rate, the viscosity of this system decreases. With the increase of temperature, the gelling time shortens, the viscosity increases, but the stability weekens. This kind of profile control system has a good effect on plugging fractures of low permeability cores. After water flooding, this kind of profile control system is injected into cores, the recovery ratio can increase 3.5%. So the profile control system composed of HPAM/ phenolic resin can apply to deep profile control in fractured low permeability reservoir to enhance oil recovery.
