Problems solved by technology

For the research on the oil-water emulsification process, the oil-water emulsion was first prepared in proportion by the agitator, and then the water separation rate of the emulsion was recorded at a certain temperature to study the factors affecting the stability of the emulsion; The microscopic model has observed the formation process of the emulsion, and there is a big difference between the oil-water distribution state in the above experimental model and the oil-water distribution state in the porous medium; the emulsification law of the ASP solution and the residual oil was studied by using a long sand-filled thin tube. Collect the output fluid at the end, and then measure the parameters such as the water separation rate of the output fluid. This method is out of the actual environment of the porous medium. The output fluid has changed, and only the state of the effluent at the outlet end can be observed, not the state of the output fluid. Real-time observation of the emulsification situation on the spot, so the emulsification state at each position along the way cannot be determined, and the existing evaluation methods cannot prove whether emulsification and the degree of emulsification occur in various parts of the core under the condition of seepage of the surfactant in the porous medium

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of petroleum exploration and development, and in particular relates to a method and a measuring device for measuring the emulsification ability of crude oil along the process of simulating surfactant flooding. Background technique [0002] The well spacing of oil field production is very large. During the development of surfactant flooding, the surfactant solution continuously contacts, mixes, carries, and emulsifies with underground crude oil within the distance from the injection well to the production well to form an emulsion. The formed emulsion can stay in the pores, thereby causing the liquid flow to divert and expand the sweep efficiency; reduce the interfacial tension between oil and water; reduce the mobility ratio, thereby increasing the recovery factor. If an emulsion with high viscosity or large particle size is formed in the deep part of the formation, the injection ability of the displacement agent will ...
