Slow, immiscible, viscoelastic liquid-liquid displacement in a permeab
le medium is considered. The necessary and sufficient criteria for sta
bility are that the displacing fluid is denser and less mobile than th
e displaced one. The instability criteria and critical wavelength are
found to be the same as those for ordinary viscous liquid-liquid displ
acements in permeable media.
