Problems solved by technology

[0003] At present, the thermal recovery of heavy oil is mainly developed by steam huff and puff. Due to the high clay content in water-sensitive heavy oil reservoirs, the clay swells when it meets water, and the permeability of the oil layer is seriously reduced, which makes it difficult to replenish energy by steam injection, and the production effect is not ideal.

Abstract

The invention provides a method for increasing the strongly water-sensitive heavy oil reservoir recovery ratio. The method comprises the steps of injecting antiswelling solutions in a steam injection well in a heavy oil reservoir, the injection quantity of each period being 3-4t and the injection time being 2 hours; and continuously and independently injecting steam in the steam injection well. The antiswelling solutions are obtained by using preparation water to diluting mother solutions with high concentration until the concentration becomes 10%. The method is characterized in that the antiswelling agents are injected to facilitate steam huff and puff, thereby increasing the strongly water-sensitive heavy oil reservoir recovery ratio. At high temperature, the antiswelling agents can effectively restrain clay swelling, reduce the water sensitivity of reservoir strata, increase the oil layer permeability, increase the swept volume of steam and reduce the viscosity of crude oil, thereby increasing the strongly water-sensitive heavy oil reservoir recovery ratio.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to oil recovery technology in oilfields, in particular to a method for improving the recovery rate of strong water-sensitive heavy oil reservoirs. Background technique [0002] The world is extremely rich in heavy oil resources. Compared with the development technology of conventional heavy oil reservoirs, the development and research technology of heavy oil reservoirs with strong water sensitivity has certain particularities. Reservoir protection technology is the key, and the development difficulty is much greater than that of conventional heavy oil reservoirs. oil reservoir. [0003] At present, the thermal recovery of heavy oil is mainly developed by steam huff and puff. Due to the high clay content in water-sensitive heavy oil reservoirs, the clay swells when it meets water, and the permeability of the oil layer is seriously reduced, which makes it difficult to replenish energy by steam injection, and the production effect is...
