The nonlinear behavior of instabilities (fingers) in a specific oil–water displacement process, which includes the effects of capillary pressure in a heterogeneous porous medium, has been analysed from a statistical viewpoint. It is shown that, based on theories available for capillary pressure, the statistical model does not lead to any stabilization of the fingers.

The stabilization of fingers in a specific oil–water displacement process with capillary pressure has been statistically discussed for a given heterogeneous porous medium. The equation of motion has been solved by a perturbation method. It is shown that the perturbation solution does produce "stable" fingers in one special case corresponding to the investigated problem.
