Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the field of steam injection development technology, and in particular to a method, device, electronic equipment and medium for predicting a VHSD steam chamber and production parameters. Background Art
[0002] Thermal recovery is the most widely used method for heavy oil development. It includes steam stimulation, steam flooding, steam-assisted gravity drainage, and fire flooding. Currently, almost all old heavy oil fields use steam stimulation in the early stages of development. However, the control range of a single well of steam stimulation is limited, with an effective radius of generally 20-30m, and the recovery rate can only reach about 20%. The efficient follow-up development method after steam stimulation has always been the most important technical direction in the field of heavy oil development.
[0003] VHSD is a technology developed based on the concepts of steam flooding and steam-assisted gravity drainage, combining the characteristics of geological reservoirs and heavy oil development methods. It adopts a well pattern that combines steam injection and horizontal wells. Vertical wells serve as injection wells to continuously inject high-dryness steam into the oil layer, and horizontal wells are arranged at the bottom of the oil layer as production wells to achieve gravity drainage development. It has become the most effective follow-up development technology in the later stage of steam stimulation.
[0004] Current theoretical research on VHSD development technology is still immature. The special well pattern combination of vertical and horizontal wells leads to complex steam chamber development patterns and development and production rules. Production predictions are mostly based on numerical simulation methods. The existing production prediction models can only realize the production capacity evaluation of specific oil reservoirs, and cannot achieve quantitative characterization of steam chambers. There is a lack of fast and accurate production prediction models. Summary of the Invention

[0035] In this plan, VHSD, also known as vertical-horizontal SAGD, refers to a heavy oil development method that uses a well pattern that combines vertical and horizontal wells. Vertical wells serve as injection wells to continuously inject high-dryness steam into the oil layer, and horizontal wells are arranged at the bottom of the oil layer as production wells. This is an effective successor development method for heavy oil in the later stage of steam stimulation.
