Crucially, the region occupied by Zone 2 is the only portion of the reservoir where water sweep has passed through the pore space and directly displaced oil via streamtubes connected to the producer well.

The delta sandstone has a complex architecture of mosaic structure with abundant horizontal and vertical mud-interlayers and mud-interbeds, in which the injected water sweeps along preferential path, with low sweeping efficiency, and the remaining oil distribution pattern is the complex blocking pattern controlled by horizontal and vertical mud-interlayers and mud-interbeds.
