Problems solved by technology

However, due to the high viscosity of heavy oil, CO 2 During the process of gas-water alternating flooding, gas channeling and gravity overriding are very easy to occur, which reduces the horizontal and vertical sweep coefficients, and the development effect is poor

Abstract

The invention discloses an experimental device and experimental method for thickened oil pool mixed nano-fluid alternating CO2 microbubble flooding. The experimental device and experimental method forthickened oil pool mixed nano-fluid alternating CO2 microbubble flooding introduces mixed nano-particles and combines the advantages of CO2 microbubbles, the phenomena of gas channeling and gravity override of a thickened oil pool occurred during conventional CO2 gas-water alternate flooding can be effectively controlled through a mode of alternating injection, and the recovery efficiency of thethickened oil pool is improved. Compared with CO2 gas, dissolving and diffusing abilities of the CO2 microbubbles are greater in crude oil, buoyancy is smaller, thickened oil viscosity can be better reduced, the volume of thickened oil is expanded, and the sweep coefficient is increased; the mixed nano-fluid can fully combine the advantages of various nano-particles, wettability of oil pull rockscan be changed, the oil-water interfacial tension can be reduced, and the oil washing efficiency is improved; and in addition, the experimental device and experimental method for thickened oil pool mixed nano-fluid alternating CO2 microbubble flooding adopts the method of injecting a mixed nano-fluid slug on the upper part of an oil pool and a CO2 microbubble slug on the lower part, controlling ofthe phenomena of the gas channeling and the gravity override and improvement of the vertical sweep coefficient are helped.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a heavy oil reservoir mixed nanofluid alternating CO 2 A micro-bubble flooding experimental device and an experimental method belong to the technical field of heavy oil reservoir exploitation. Background technique [0002] According to statistics, the world's heavy oil reserves are about 100 billion tons, accounting for a relatively large proportion of oil and gas resources. my country's proven and controlled heavy oil reserves are more than 1.9 billion tons, mainly distributed in more than a dozen oil fields such as Liaohe, Xinjiang, and Shengli. In addition, with the internationalization of my country's oil and gas exploration and development, a large number of foreign heavy oil resources need to be developed urgently. Therefore, under the condition that the exploration degree of conventional oil and gas resources is continuously improved and the development difficulty is increasing, heavy oil has become an important oil an...
