Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of heavy oil reservoir exploitation, and particularly relates to a heavy oil reservoir nanofluid enhanced carbonated water displacement experimental device and an experimental method. Background Art

[0002] Carbonated water flooding, a new CO2 technology, holds promise for resolving the aforementioned challenges in developing complex reservoirs. During carbonated water flooding, CO2 transfers to the oil phase through mass transfer, causing crude oil to swell and reduce viscosity. Furthermore, carbonated water can alter rock surface wettability and reduce oil-water interfacial tension. However, carbonated water suffers from a low CO2 solubility. To increase CO2 solubility in carbonated water, enhance CO2 mass transfer, and thereby improve oil recovery efficiency, the introduction of nanofluids into carbonated water flooding for heavy oil reservoirs has been proposed. Adding small amounts of nanoparticles and dispersants to carbonated water increases the CO2 solubility in the water, enhancing CO2 mass transfer from the water phase to the heavy oil, thereby improving swelling and viscosity reduction, and enhancing heavy oil fluidity. Nanofluids are uniform, stable suspended colloidal systems composed of nanoparticles (diameters ranging from 1 to 100 nm) dispersed in media such as water, alcohol, and oil. Compared to existing traditional oilfield chemicals, they offer advantages such as environmental friendliness, small size, large surface area, and low cost, and possess significant application potential.

[0003] Although the introduction of nanofluids into the carbonated water flooding process in heavy oil reservoirs has been proposed to increase the amount of CO2 dissolved in the carbonated water, there is currently no experimental method or experimental device suitable for nanofluid-enhanced carbonated water displacement to simulate and observe in real time the microscopic interaction between nanofluid-enhanced carbonated water and heavy oil under high-temperature and high-pressure reservoir conditions, so as to further study the influence of geological and injection-production parameters such as permeability, porosity, nanofluid type, nanofluid concentration, CO2 concentration, salinity or injection rate on development results.

[0004] Chinese patent CN107916915 discloses a carbonized water displacement system and method under high temperature and high pressure, wherein the displacement system includes an injection system, a displacement system, a model system, and a metering system connected in sequence, and the displacement system includes a water displacement system, an oil displacement system, and a carbonized water displacement system connected in parallel between the injection system and the model system. The displacement steps include: establishing the initial oil saturation and irreducible water saturation of the core; performing water displacement on the natural core to obtain the water displacement recovery rate of the core; and performing carbonized water displacement on the natural core to obtain the carbonized water displacement recovery rate of the core after water displacement. The carbonized water is an aqueous solution dissolved in CO2.

[0005] Existing carbonated water displacement experimental models are mainly established based on the comparative evaluation of conventional oil reservoir displacement effects, and do not focus on the characteristics of heavy oil reservoir experimental models. It is also impossible to use the model to observe in real time the microscopic interactions between carbonated water and heavy oil during the displacement process, such as the dissolution and precipitation of CO2, and the mass transfer of CO2.

[0006] However, the experimental device and method for nanofluid enhanced carbonized water flooding in heavy oil reservoirs have not yet been proposed. Summary of the Invention

[0007] The present invention aims to provide an experimental device and method for nanofluid-enhanced carbonated water flooding in heavy oil reservoirs. This device enables real-time observation of the microscopic interaction between nanofluid-enhanced carbonated water and heavy oil in high-temperature and high-pressure reservoirs, while also meeting the requirements of other experiments such as nanofluid flooding, CO2 flooding, and carbonated water flooding. The experimental method is capable of studying the influence of geological and injection-production parameters, such as permeability, porosity, nanofluid type, nanofluid concentration, CO2 concentration, salinity, and injection rate, on the development results of nanofluid-enhanced carbonated water flooding in heavy oil reservoirs.

[0008] The technical solution of the present invention is: a nanofluid enhanced carbonated water displacement experimental device for heavy oil reservoirs, including a nanofluid enhanced carbonated water preparation system, a fluid injection system, a displacement experimental system, an oil and gas measurement system, and a data acquisition and temperature control system.

[0009] The nanofluid-enhanced carbonated water preparation system includes two containers connected in parallel, namely a carbon dioxide container and a nanofluid-enhanced carbonated water container; the bottoms of both containers are connected to a high-precision constant-speed and constant-pressure pump through a control valve and pipeline; the tops of both containers are connected to one end of a back-pressure valve I through a pressure gauge, a control valve and a pipeline, and the other end of the back-pressure valve I is connected to a liquid metering container; the upper part of the liquid metering container is connected to a gas flow meter I.

[0010] The introduction of the back pressure valve I, the liquid metering container and the gas flow meter I can measure the CO2 solubility in the configured nanofluid enhanced carbonated water, thereby quantitatively verifying the accuracy of the nanofluid enhanced carbonated water preparation.

[0011] The fluid injection system consists of three containers connected in parallel: a formation oil container, a formation water container, and the nanofluid-enhanced carbonated water container from the nanofluid-enhanced carbonated water preparation system. The bottoms of the formation oil and formation water containers are connected to a high-precision constant-speed and constant-pressure pump via control valves and pipelines. The tops of the formation oil, formation water, and nanofluid-enhanced carbonated water containers are connected to one end of the displacement model in the displacement experiment system via pressure gauges, control valves, and pipelines. This is used to inject nanofluid-enhanced carbonated water, formation oil, and formation water into the displacement model.

[0012] The displacement experimental system consists of a displacement model, the other end of which is connected to a vacuum pump via a control valve and pipeline. The displacement model is connected in series with a high-temperature, high-pressure observation window and back-pressure valve II, which is connected to a back-pressure control pump and a pressure gauge. A high-definition camera is located above the high-temperature, high-pressure observation window, and a light source is located below it. These cameras are used to observe and record the microscopic interactions between the nanofluid-enhanced carbonated water and the heavy oil during the displacement process. A vacuum pump, located between the displacement model and the high-temperature, high-pressure observation window, maintains a vacuum throughout the experimental setup. The high-temperature, high-pressure observation window can withstand temperatures and pressures exceeding 50°C and 10 MPa, simulating the conditions of heavy oil reservoirs.

[0013] The oil and gas measurement system includes a gas-liquid separator connected to a back-pressure valve II. The upper part of the gas-liquid separator is connected to a gas flow meter II for measuring the gas production during the nanofluid-enhanced carbonized water displacement process. The bottom of the gas-liquid separator is connected to a liquid collection container, which is placed on an electronic balance for measuring the liquid production quality during the nanofluid-enhanced carbonized water displacement process.

[0014] The data acquisition and temperature control system includes a computer connected to the displacement model's pressure sensor to measure pressure changes within the displacement model during nanofluid-enhanced carbonated water displacement. The computer is also connected to the displacement model's temperature controller and the heating plate and insulation jacket surrounding the displacement model. These controls control the temperature of the heated displacement model and simulates the temperature of the heavy oil reservoir.

[0015] Furthermore, the displacement model of the experimental device for nanofluid-enhanced carbonated water displacement in heavy oil reservoirs has an inner diameter of 25-50 mm and a length of 100-1000 mm. This size range, determined through extensive simulation experiments and theoretical calculations, is optimized to better reflect the oil, gas, and water seepage processes at the scale of heavy oil reservoirs.

[0016] Furthermore, the high-definition camera of the heavy oil reservoir nanofluid enhanced carbonated water displacement experimental device has a pixel greater than 12 million and a frame rate greater than 30 frames per second; and the light source is a white light source.

[0017] Furthermore, the displacement model of the nanofluid-enhanced carbonated water displacement experimental device for heavy oil reservoirs is equipped with pressure measuring points at the beginning, middle, and end. This allows for accurate detection of pressure changes at different locations within the displacement model during the experiment, preventing the failure to detect certain areas of the displacement model due to a lack of pressure measuring points.

[0018] Furthermore, the visual range of the high-temperature and high-pressure observation window of the nanofluid-enhanced carbonated water displacement experimental device for heavy oil reservoirs is between 50 and 200 mm in length, 5 and 30 mm in width, and 1 and 5 mm in thickness. This thickness can ensure that the nanofluid-enhanced carbonated water and heavy oil can flow in the high-temperature and high-pressure visual window, and can also enable the light source and high-definition camera to cooperate to obtain clear images.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0091] The technical solution of the present invention is described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0092] Example 1

[0094] The nanofluid-enhanced carbonated water preparation system includes two containers connected in parallel, namely a carbon dioxide container 2 and a nanofluid-enhanced carbonated water container 3; the bottoms of both containers are connected to a high-precision constant-speed and constant-pressure pump 1 through a control valve 6 and a pipeline; the tops of both containers are connected to one end of a back-pressure valve I9 through a pressure gauge 8, a control valve 6 and a pipeline, and the other end of the back-pressure valve I9 is connected to a liquid metering container 10; the upper part of the liquid metering container 10 is connected to a gas flow meter I11.

[0095] The fluid injection system includes three containers connected in parallel: a formation oil container 4, a formation water container 5, and the nanofluid-enhanced carbonated water container 3 in the nanofluid-enhanced carbonated water preparation system. The bottoms of the formation oil container 4 and the formation water container 5 are connected to a high-precision constant-speed and constant-pressure pump 1 via a control valve 6 and pipelines. The tops of the formation oil container 4, the formation water container 5, and the nanofluid-enhanced carbonated water container 3 are connected to an injection port 12 at one end of a displacement model 36 in the displacement experimental system via a pressure gauge 8, a control valve 6, and pipelines. This is used to inject nanofluid-enhanced carbonated water, formation oil, and formation water into the displacement model 36.

[0096] The displacement experimental system includes a displacement model 36 equipped with an injection port 12, an inlet cover plate 13, an outlet cover plate 18, and a production port 19. The outer body 14 of the displacement model 36 is placed in a constant temperature chamber 35. The other end of the displacement model 36 is connected to a vacuum pump 25 via a control valve 6 and a pipeline. The displacement model 36 is connected in series with a high-temperature, high-pressure observation window 26 and a back-pressure valve II 30. The back-pressure valve II 30 is connected to a back-pressure control pump 29 and a pressure gauge 8 to control the pressure within the displacement model. A high-definition camera 27 is located above the high-temperature, high-pressure observation window 26, and a light source 28 is located below the high-temperature, high-pressure observation window 26 to observe and record the microscopic interaction between the nanofluid-enhanced carbonated water and the heavy oil during the nanofluid-enhanced carbonated water displacement process. A vacuum pump 25 is located between the displacement model 36 and the high-temperature, high-pressure observation window 26 to maintain a vacuum throughout the experimental setup.

[0167] In this example, the cumulative oil production, recovery degree and water content are recorded during the displacement process. Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 .

[0168] After the water flooding was completed, the cumulative oil production was 13.8 cm 3 , the recovery degree of water drive is 26.1%;

Geological parameters and injection and production parameters include permeability, porosity, nanofluid type, nanofluid concentration, CO2 concentration, salinity, injection rate, etc.

[0172] Combine Figure 2 、 Figure 3 and Figure 4The cumulative oil production, recovery degree, and water cut change with injection volume show that, compared with nanofluid-enhanced carbonated water flooding, water flooding and carbonated water flooding achieve lower recovery degrees than nanofluid-enhanced carbonated water flooding for the same injection volume. The ultimate recovery of nanofluid-enhanced carbonated water flooding is 12.735% and 5.54% higher than that of water flooding and carbonated water flooding, respectively. This is because the solubility of CO2 in nanofluid-enhanced carbonated water is higher than that in carbonated water. Furthermore, during the displacement process, the enhanced mass transfer effect of nanoparticles increases the solubility of CO2 in heavy oil, which facilitates viscosity reduction and expansion of the heavy oil, improves the mobility ratio, and delays breakthrough of the injected fluid. Furthermore, nanofluid-enhanced carbonated water flooding can reduce oil-water interfacial tension, change the wettability of the rock surface, and make crude oil more easily stripped from the rock surface, which helps to increase the ultimate recovery.
