Abstract:
A method for isolating a first region and a proximate second region of a subterranean formation is disclosed that includes introducing an asphaltene composition into the first region of the subterranean formation, the asphaltene composition including asphaltene dissolved in a solvent, and after introducing the asphaltene composition, introducing an aqueous composition to the first region to precipitate the asphaltene in the first region. The precipitated asphaltene forms a barrier that isolates the second region from at least a portion of the first region.

Claim (Index 16):
The method of  claim 15  in which the EOR includes:\n injecting a treatment composition into the first region from an injection well, where the barrier maintains the treatment composition in the second region and restricts flow of the treatment composition into other regions of the subterranean formation; and \n recovering hydrocarbons from the second region.
