Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of oilfield development technology, and specifically to a method for reorganizing multi-layered reservoirs through water injection development. Background Technology
[0002] The Yanchang Oilfield is located in the southeastern part of the Ordos Basin, with its western region featuring well-developed multi-layered reservoirs. During the water injection development of these multi-layered sandstone reservoirs, significant differences in physical and fluid properties exist between the vertically aligned layers, leading to prominent inter-layer contradictions. Due to a lack of clarity regarding the nature of these inter-layer contradictions, the reorganization of the development stratigraphic system often follows several broad principles without specific quantitative principles and methods, directly impacting the effectiveness of water injection development.
[0003] To improve the effectiveness of water injection development in multi-layer reservoirs, alleviating inter-layer conflicts is crucial. Appropriate bottomhole flowing pressure for different reservoirs is an effective method to improve water injection development in multi-layer reservoirs. Appropriate bottomhole flowing pressure can reduce the impact of inter-layer conflicts on the development effect of each reservoir layer, leading to higher reservoir recovery.
[0004] The study on reasonable bottomhole flowing pressure in oil reservoirs mainly focuses on the impact of the flow coefficient range and reservoir distance on the development effect of multi-layer oil reservoirs, and on understanding the essential contradictions of syndicated oil reservoirs. Based on the theories of seepage mechanics and fluid mechanics, calculation methods for the production capacity of each sub-layer and the total production capacity of oil wells in syndicated oil wells are derived for each oil reservoir. This method is applicable to the general calculation method of multi-layer oil reservoirs with similar sedimentary environments under water injection development conditions. Through the production capacity calculation method of syndicated oil reservoirs, a simple and clear production capacity-flow coefficient range and reservoir distance relationship chart can be drawn, allowing for intuitive judgment of the flow coefficient range and reservoir distance boundaries of different oil reservoirs, and guiding the formulation of multi-layer oil reservoir development policies. Summary of the Invention
