Influence of constant and variable fields of electric current and various surface-active substances (SAS) on superficial tension, absorption, desorption and on the mechanism of oil displacement from clayey porous medium have been investigated in the article. Nonionic alphenol, cation-active DABACh (Dimethhyl Akyl Benzyl Ammonium Chloride) and anionic-active sulfonic acid have been used as surface-active substances. When anionic-active substance solutions are influenced by constant electric current surface tension coefficient increases comparatively. While using absorbent containing clayey and carbonate combinations, absorption factor of non-ionogenic alphenol SAS doesnt change, but its desorption ability decreases. Use of constant electric current with non-ionogenic SAS doesnt influence on oil displacement factor in comparison with the water mineralized with organic and inorganic salts. But while clayey layer model is influenced with constant electric current, Kirmaki oil replacement by alkali layer water increases.
