Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of oilfield flooding, and more particularly to a viscosity reducer, an oil displacement composition containing the same, and an oil displacement method. Background Technology
[0002] China's heavy oil reserves are generally deep-buried and highly viscous, with most reservoirs concentrated in loose sandstone formations at depths of 1000 to 1500 meters. Crude oil viscosity is generally greater than 400 mPa·s (50℃), and steam injection is the primary method of thermal recovery. Annual production is approximately 15 million tons, with an average recovery rate of less than 20%, leaving abundant residual oil in the formation. However, after multiple rounds of steam injection, the thermal radius is difficult to increase, the oil-gas ratio continues to decline, and the water cut continues to rise, leading to a continuous deterioration in thermal recovery efficiency. Therefore, there is an urgent need for replacement technologies suitable for improving recovery rates in the later stages of heavy oil development.
[0003] Chemical composite flooding is a promising and feasible replacement technology proposed by Sinopec. However, a mature and effective chemical composite flooding composition for heavy oil has not yet been formed. Existing chemical composite systems mostly draw on binary and ternary composite flooding compositions for conventional light oil, which have problems such as unsatisfactory viscosity reduction effect and poor crossflow control effect, and cannot meet the requirements of chemical composite flooding after multiple rounds of steam huff and puff in heavy oil reservoirs.
