Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of oil and gas exploration and development, and more particularly to a high-temperature and high-pressure water-gas dynamic relative permeability test method. BACKGROUND

[0002] Water-gas relative permeability is a very important basic data in the process of oil and gas field development. At present, the water-gas relative permeability test standard method is to simulate gas (usually nitrogen) and simulated water (usually formation water) under laboratory conditions to obtain the data by using a steady-state method or a non-steady-state method, and the test conditions are normal temperature and low pressure. Since the experiment is generally carried out on a dry core, the influence of bound water on the core is not considered, and the problem of dry experimental gas entering the core and taking away the bound water in the core is not considered. There is a certain error between the data obtained by this method and the actual reservoir rock permeability.

[0003] The characteristics of different methods are as follows: the non-steady-state method is faster than the steady-state method in measuring relative permeability, but the data measurement, analysis and interpretation are more complex than the steady-state method, especially for the core with serious heterogeneity, the non-steady-state method is difficult to obtain reliable relative permeability curve; the steady-state method is generally considered to be suitable for measuring the core with permeability of 0.5mD or more, and since the relative permeability calculation is based on Darcy equation, the result is high in reliability.

[0004] At present, there is a non-steady-state balance water-gas relative permeability test method under reservoir conditions, and the main test steps include: (1) preparing the original formation water sample; (2) measuring the core liquid permeability, establishing the core bound water saturation and measuring the gas permeability of the core under the bound water state; (3) saturating the target core with nitrogen and pressurizing the formation water; (4) after the two phases are balanced, water is used to displace gas at a fixed displacement pressure difference; (5) recording the pressure change and the outlet water and gas production; (6) calculating the relative permeability curve according to the experimental data record. However, under the high-temperature and high-pressure conditions in the formation, when the water-gas is in a balanced state, the interfacial tension of the water-gas is smaller than that of the standard method, and the viscosity also has a large gap, and if the water-gas fluid participating in the seepage does not consider the factor of formation pressure drop, the difference between the experimental results and the seepage law in the actual development process will be large. SUMMARY

[0005] The present application aims to overcome the defect that the existing non-steady-state method is easy to cause large difference in experimental results, and provides a high-temperature and high-pressure water-gas dynamic relative permeability test method. The method considers the dynamic influence of water-gas fluid in the rock when the formation pressure changes in the high-temperature and high-pressure development process, and the measured result is more in line with the actual mining process, thereby providing a convenient and simple, and actually reliable dynamic water-gas relative permeability curve test method for high-temperature and high-pressure gas reservoir development.

[0006] To solve the above technical problems, the technical scheme adopted by the present application is:

[0007] The present application provides a high-temperature and high-pressure water-gas dynamic relative permeability test method, which is completed by a water-gas relative permeability test device, and comprises the following steps:

[0008] Step S1, the physical parameters of the core taken from the field are measured after extraction, oil washing and drying;

[0009] Step S2, the core treated in step S1 is placed in a vacuum environment, and then the vacuum-treated core is saturated in formation water, and the mass m0 of the saturated core is measured;

[0010] Step S3, the core in step S2 is placed in a core holder, a displacement pump is started to input liquid into the core holder, the water flow rate Q at the outlet end of the core holder is measured by a liquid flow meter, the viscosity μ of the water is determined according to the water temperature, the pressure difference Δp between the two ends of the core is measured by a pressure sensor, and the water permeability K is calculated according to the Darcy formula w ;

[0011] Step S4, the displacement pump is operated to displace the core in the core holder at a low speed, and when the weight of the core does not change, the mass m1 of the irreducible water core is measured, and the irreducible water saturation S is calculated based on the mass m0 of the saturated formation water core wi ;

[0012] Step S5, the core treated in step S4 is tested for gas permeability under the condition of irreducible water, and the gas permeability K g( swi ) under the condition of irreducible water is calculated according to the Darcy formula

[0013] Step S6, the control valve of the liquid intermediate container is closed, the heating device is turned on to heat the test device, and the internal and external pressures are gradually increased in a synchronous manner, the internal pressure is used to pressurize the core with humidified gas to simulate the formation pressure, the confining pressure at the confining pump is kept greater than the internal pressure by 5 MPa, and the back pressure at the back pressure pump is kept greater than the internal pressure by 0.5 MPa

[0014] Step S7, after the pressure and temperature of the liquid intermediate container and the core holder are stable and reach the preset value, the control valve of the liquid intermediate container is opened to make the formation water enter the core holder, the confining pressure and the internal pressure are kept unchanged, the pressure sensor is observed, and after the pressure at both ends of the core is stable, the back pressure pump is gradually reduced by a certain pressure, and the water output V w , the gas output V g of the core holder outlet end each time is recorded until the core holder outlet end does not output gas and the water output is stable, and the test is ended.

[0015] The water-gas phase permeability testing device comprises a heating device, a core holder, a gas source, a gas intermediate container, a displacement pump, a liquid intermediate container, a confining pressure pump, a back pressure pump, and pressure sensors, wherein the core holder is located in the heating device, the inlet end of the core holder is connected to the gas source through the gas intermediate container and to the displacement pump through the liquid intermediate container, a gas humidifier is arranged between the gas intermediate container and the gas source to prevent water in the core from being taken away by nitrogen and to ensure that the inlet and outlet of the core are both in a bound water state, thereby avoiding interference with the humidity and water output of the core during displacement, the outlet end of the core holder is connected to the confining pressure pump, the back pressure pump, and gas and liquid flow meters for monitoring the water output V w , the gas output V g of the back pressure pump (i.e., the outlet end of the core holder), and pressure sensors are arranged at both ends of the core holder. The water-gas phase permeability testing device further comprises a monitoring device and an information processing device in communication connection with the pressure sensors, the liquid flow meter, and the gas flow meter, which facilitates real-time tracking and adjustment of the test conditions and test results by the test personnel.

[0016] Further, the gas source in the water-gas phase permeability testing device is a high-pressure gas cylinder containing nitrogen, which has extremely high chemical stability and can avoid reaction between the gas and the core in the testing device.

[0017] Further, in step S1, the target core is extracted, cleaned, and dried, and the target core is measured for the core dry weight m, the length L, the diameter d, the core porosity , the gas permeability K g , the core cross-sectional area A, the core apparent volume V b , and the core pore volume V p .

[0018] Further, in step S3, the core saturated with formation water is loaded into the core holder, an appropriate confining pressure and displacement pressure are applied to the saturated core for liquid permeability testing, and after the test results are stable, the average liquid permeability is recorded as the basis value of the water-gas relative permeability of the core. The calculation formula of the water permeability K w is as follows:

[0019]

[0020] In the formula, Q is the water flow rate at the outlet end of the core holder, μ is the viscosity of water, L is the length of the core, A is the cross-sectional area of the core, A = πd 2 / 4, and Δp is the pressure difference between the two ends of the core.

[0021] Further, in step S4, the core in the saturated water state is replaced with humidified nitrogen at a low speed until the core is in the irreducible water state, which requires a displacement time of more than 2 hours. The core weight does not change, and the irreducible water saturation is calculated based on the dry core weight. wi The calculation formula is as follows:

[0022]

[0023] In the formula, m is the dry core weight measured in step S1, m1 is the core weight in the irreducible water state measured in step S4, and m0 is the core weight saturated with the simulated formation water measured in step S2.

[0024] After the core is in the irreducible water state, the gas permeability of the core in the irreducible water state is tested, and the average gas permeability is recorded as the basic value of the water-gas relative permeability of the core after the test results are stable.

[0025] Further, in step S4, the core holder is replaced with the irreducible water by the displacement pump, which replaces the formation water in the saturated core with the irreducible water at a low speed. The displacement rate should not be too fast, and 0.1 mL / min is appropriate.

[0026] Further, in step S5, the gas permeability K g(swi) in the irreducible water state is calculated according to the Darcy formula.

[0027]

[0028] In the formula, Q0 is the volume flow rate of nitrogen at the outlet end of the core holder measured by the gas flow meter, p0 is the measured atmospheric pressure, μ is the viscosity of the input gas, i.e., nitrogen, L is the core length, A is the cross-sectional area of the core, A = πd 2 / 4, and p1 and p2 are the pressures at the inlet end and the outlet end of the core holder, respectively, which are measured by the pressure sensor.

[0029] Further, the heating device is heated to 120°C to simulate the original formation temperature, and the temperature is maintained until the test is completed. Of course, the temperature can be dynamically adjusted according to the test method and the test purpose.

[0030] Further, in step S6, the pressure is increased to 50 MPa of internal pressure, 55 MPa of confining pressure and 50.5 MPa of back pressure, wherein the internal pressure of 50 MPa represents the original pressure of the formation, the internal pressure is increased by using humidified nitrogen to pressurize the core, the tracking mode of the confining pressure pump is opened, the confining pressure is kept 5 MPa higher than the internal pressure, the tracking mode of the back pressure pump is opened, the back pressure is kept 0.5 MPa higher than the internal pressure, and the liquid intermediate container filled with formation water is radially pressurized to 50 MPa. After the temperature and pressure of the internal fluid of the core reach the set temperature and pressure, the test is started.

[0031] Further, the specific pressure in step S7 is 0.5 MPa, and similarly, 0.5 MPa is one of the preferred values of the pressure reduction, and the specific pressure can be dynamically adjusted according to the test method and the test purpose. The valve on the liquid intermediate container is opened to connect the formation water with the saturated core, and after the system pressure is stabilized, the back pressure is gradually reduced. Each time the back pressure is reduced by 0.5 MPa, until the outlet end of the core holder is not gas, the test is ended. During the test, the differential pressure data of the core at both ends corresponding to the time are recorded, and the water production V w and the gas production V g .

[0032] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present application are that the dynamic change rule of the water-gas fluid in the rock is considered when the formation pressure changes in the development process of the high-temperature and high-pressure gas reservoir, the determined result is more in line with the actual production process, and a more reasonable and reliable dynamic water-gas relative permeability test method is provided for the development of the high-temperature and high-pressure gas reservoir.
