Abstract

The invention discloses a method for determining polymer flooding viscosity ratio. According to the method, a polymer flooding principle is used, mathematical models such as a fractional flow equation and a frontal displacement equation are established in an oil displacement process, a five-spot well pattern geometric model is established by a stream-tube method, conformance efficiencies under different viscosity ratio conditions are obtained, thereby, a relation curve among the viscosity ratio, the conformance efficiencies and oil displacement efficiency can be obtained, and a set of obtained methods for accurate limit of reasonable viscosity ratio in a polymer flooding process on basis of a fractional flow principle is formed. Compared with methods in the prior art, the method for determining the polymer flooding viscosity ratio has the advantages that input costs of polymers are greatly reduced, the crude oil recovery ratio is effectively increased, and economic benefits and social benefits are extremely large.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of oil and gas exploration and development, in particular to a method for determining the viscosity ratio of polymer flooding. Background technique [0002] Polymer flooding is a very effective technology for enhancing oil recovery by improving the mobility ratio and sweep coefficient. In the process of polymer flooding, the viscosity ratio of displacement fluid to crude oil is one of the main factors affecting the recovery factor, which in turn affects the economic benefits of chemical flooding. [0003] Viscosity ratio control is the core of polymer flooding. On the one hand, it affects the oil recovery rate, and on the other hand, it also affects the cost of oil flooding. The higher the viscosity ratio, the greater the degree of enhanced recovery, but the increase in viscosity ratio is at the expense of increasing the amount of chemical agents, so an optimal point must be found to maximize the input-output ratio. ...
