Embodiment 1

[0058] This embodiment provides a method for artificial foam oil huff and puff recovery in heavy oil reservoirs, the process flow is as follows figure 1 As shown, the selected heavy oil reservoir is a domestic heavy oil reservoir with a depth of 2155m. As of the end of March 2013, the proven oil geological reserves were 98.67 million tons, and the production rate was 59.63 million tons, with a production rate of 60.4 %. There are 457 development wells in the central and western areas of the oilfield, 331 oil wells have been opened, with a daily oil production of 1358 tons, an average daily output of 4.0 tons per well, 96 water wells opened, daily water injection of 3067 cubic meters, and a single well of daily water injection of 32 cubic meters. 66%, the oil recovery rate is 0.81%, and the recovery degree is 3.82%. The overall structural shape of the reservoir is a large nose-shaped uplift that gradually dips from east to west, and the distribution of the structure has the ch...

Abstract

The invention provides an artificial foaming-oil huff and puff oil production method for a heavy oil reservoir. The method comprises the following steps: filling aqueous solution of foaming oil accelerant and nitrogen into the heavy oil reservoir, wherein the foaming oil accelerant comprises a foaming oil accelerant A, a foaming oil accelerant B and a foaming oil accelerant C of which the mass ratio is 1:1:1; soaking for 1 to 5 days; opening a well to produce oil in a certain production differential pressure range and stopping producing oil when the single-well daily oil production reaches single-well economic limit; repeating the step 1 to the step 3 and stopping production until the single-well cyclic oil production reaches cyclic economic limit, wherein the heavy oil reservoir has a reservoir thickness of over 2m, reservoir permeability of over 10*10<-3> mu<m2>, a reservoir temperature of lower than 120 DEG C, viscosity of crude oil of over 50mPas, oil saturation of over 30 percent and water saturation of over 50 percent. According to the artificial foaming-oil huff and puff oil production method for the heavy oil reservoir, which is provided by the invention, the viscosity of crude oil can be reduced and elastic energy of fluid can be increased so as to increase single-well productivity and a recovery ratio of an oil field.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to an oil recovery method for heavy oil reservoirs, in particular to a huff and puff oil recovery method for artificial foam oil in heavy oil reservoirs, and belongs to the technical field of petroleum exploitation. Background technique [0002] Domestically proven reserves of heavy oil (usually referring to crude oil with a viscosity exceeding 50 mPa·s under formation conditions) have reached 1.3 billion tons, accounting for about 25wt%-30wt% of the total domestic oil reserves. However, due to the high density, high viscosity and poor fluidity of heavy oil, the development effect of conventional water flooding is poor. The key to heavy oil production is to reduce viscosity and improve its rheology. [0003] At present, the commonly used methods for viscous reduction of heavy oil are: heating, diluting, modifying and emulsification. Heating to reduce viscosity is the most commonly used method, but this method has high energy cons...
