Problems solved by technology

[0004] The technical problem to be solved by the present invention is to provide a device for improving the recovery of thin-layer heavy oil reservoirs based on polymer foam flooding in view of the deficiencies in the above-mentioned prior art. Foam pre-mixing allows polymer foaming liquid and carbon dioxide gas to enter the foam generator alternately, which solves the problem that only liquid enters the foam generator and gas is difficult to enter in the existing polymer foam production process. The problems of low primary and secondary recovery and thermal oil recovery in thin-bed heavy oil reservoirs provide a scientific basis for the scientific use of polymer-enhanced carbon dioxide foam to enhance the recovery of thin-bed heavy oil reservoirs and its specific on-site construction. An important theoretical basis, easy to promote the use of

Abstract

The invention discloses a device for improving the recovery rate of thin-bed heavy oil reservoirs based on polymer foam flooding. The invention also discloses a device for improving the recovery rate of thin-layer heavy oil reservoirs based on the combination of polymer foam flooding and jelly foam flooding. The invention also discloses a method for improving the recovery rate of the thin layer heavy oil reservoir based on polymer foam flooding. The invention discloses a method for improving the recovery rate of thin-bed heavy oil reservoirs based on the combination of polymer foam flooding and jelly foam flooding. The invention solves the problem that the foaming liquid easily enters the foam generator while the gas is difficult to enter during foam production, and at the same time solves the problem of low primary and secondary recovery of thin-layer heavy oil reservoirs and the inapplicability of thermal oil recovery through the cold oil recovery method It provides an important theoretical basis for the scientific use of foam flooding to enhance the recovery of thin-layer heavy oil reservoirs and its specific on-site construction.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of improving the recovery of thin-layer heavy oil reservoirs, and in particular relates to a device and method for improving the recovery of thin-layer heavy oil reservoirs based on foam flooding. Background technique [0002] Heavy oil resources are widely distributed all over the world. Due to the high viscosity of crude oil in heavy oil reservoirs, it is necessary to use effective viscosity reduction technology for production. At present, the commonly used production technologies mainly include steam huff and puff, steam-assisted gravity flooding , steam flooding, fire oil layer method and other thermal oil recovery technologies. However, for thin heavy oil reservoirs (the effective thickness of the oil layer is less than 5m), the heat loss is very serious because the thickness of the oil layer is too thin, so the above-mentioned conventional thermal oil recovery methods are greatly limited, and it is imp...
