Abstract: Mathematical description of the oil displacement process by gel-forming systems is proposed. Gelation kinetics is destribed by Smoluchowski coagulation theory. The alteration of pore spase structure in reservoir is modeled. By the example of numerical results it is shown how in-situ gelation process in stratified reservoir the increase of the oil recovery factor.
