Abstract

An installation for storing, metering, and dissolving water-soluble polymer particles, in particular for enhanced oil and/or gas recovery operations, includes a so-called “polymer dissolution” container A and at least one so-called “polymer storage and distribution” container B positioned upon container A. The bottom of container B and the roof of container A each have an opening facing one another allowing the passage of the polymer from container B into the supply mechanism of container A. The installation further includes a connection mechanism able to work with the polymer supply mechanism.
