I remember seeing an illustration in some magazine where they were injecting water under high pressure into something like every 3rd or 4th well in a field. That forced the oil that was trapped in the sand and shale, to migrate toward the wells that were still pumping. It seemed like an attempt to strip the bottom of the barrel, so to speak.
