Embodiment 1

[0036] Block A of an oil production plant in Shengli Oilfield 12 , belongs to the high permeability water sensitive reservoir, the reservoir temperature is 60℃, the permeability is 760×10 -3 μm 2 , The thickness of the oil layer is 12.0m. Before the test, the content of clay minerals in the rock minerals of the reservoir accounts for 20%, of which the content of montmorillonite in clay minerals is 35%, the water sensitivity index is 0.75, and the pore volume is 2.0×10 4 m 3 , the daily water injection volume of the block is 50m 3 , 2.2×10 iron-reducing bacteria were detected in the reservoir produced fluid 2 individual / mL. The reservoir is a reservoir with high clay content, strong water sensitivity, and poor connectivity. There are damages caused by clay swelling and particle migration, which make it difficult to inject water due to high injection pressure during water injection.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of oil field development, and in particular relates to a method for reducing water sensitivity of oil reservoirs by using modified functional microorganisms. Background technique [0002] In the development process of low-permeability oilfields, water injection is an important measure to maintain reservoir pressure and achieve stable and high production. The key to ensuring that water injection wells can inject water and inject water well is not to damage the water injection reservoir. The main cause of reservoir water sensitivity is clay minerals, which widely exist in oil layers. When the reservoir contains 5-20% clay, it is considered to be an oil layer with high clay content. Improper measures will cause clay minerals to expand, decompose, and migrate, resulting in a decrease in permeability, and in severe cases, the problem of infusion failure will occur. [0003] At present, for reservoirs with strong...
