Summary:PCT No. PCT/FR92/00812 Sec. 371 Date Jun. 2, 1993 Sec. 102(e) Date Jun. 2, 1993 PCT Filed Aug. 21, 1992 PCT Pub. No. WO93/04266 PCT Pub. Date Mar. 4, 1993.A method for reducing retention of a polymer based displacement agent injected into a hydrocarbon containing rock matrix involves treating the matrix with an adsorbent solution containing alkali metal phosphates after the rock matrix comprising clays has been stabilized by injection of a solution containing cations obtained from KCl or NaCL salts. The presence of the cations increases the effect of the adsorbent solution.
