Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of CO2 storage and oil recovery, and in particular to a method for processing chemical reactions and viscosity changes in CO2 storage and oil recovery. Background Art

[0002] Carbon capture, utilization and storage (CCUS) technology is one of the key technologies for reducing CO2 emissions and mitigating the greenhouse effect. Compared with CO2 energy conservation and emission reduction, CCUS technology has great effect and potential for reducing CO2 emissions as long as the storage method and storage location are properly selected. According to the statistical results of relevant industry data, a total of 136 mine field tests to achieve CO2 injection to improve oil recovery have been carried out worldwide, of which 88 have achieved significant oil and gas resource increases, with a success rate of nearly 65%, indicating that CO2 oil recovery has good effects and application prospects. In order to better understand the mechanism and influencing factors of CO2 oil recovery, optimize oil recovery plans, improve oil recovery, reduce costs, extend the life of oil fields, and solve problems that cannot be solved by experiments. Numerical simulation related to CO2 storage and oil recovery has become one of the key technologies in the development of oil and gas fields. It is a very meaningful work to study the mathematical models involved in the numerical simulation of CO2 storage and oil recovery.

[0003] Most reservoir numerical simulation software can simulate the CO2 displacement process, but in the entire simulation process, it is impossible to accurately consider the presence of CO2 as one of the hydrocarbon components in the oil and gas phases, as well as the effects of CO2 dissolution in water, chemical reactions between carbonic acid and formation minerals, and mineralization processes on reservoir permeability. At the same time, some commercial numerical simulation software can simulate the CO2 burial process alone, simulating burial mechanisms such as dissolution in water and mineral precipitation, but cannot calculate the CO2 dissolution and displacement process in the oil phase.

[0019] Figure 1 A flowchart of a processing method provided by an embodiment of the present invention, such as Figure 1 As shown, the method includes: Step 1: Construct a physical model of the flow state of CO2 after it enters the reservoir.

[0020] In the embodiment of the present invention, the flow state is the seepage driven by the pressure difference between the wellbore and the formation. Physical model of flow state: 1. Conforms to Darcy's seepage law; 2. Isothermal seepage; 3. Oil, gas and water three phases and oil, gas and water three components, the water component exists in the water phase, the oil component exists in the oil phase, and the oil and water phases are immiscible; the gas component not only exists in the gas phase, but also dissolves in the oil phase and the water phase; 4. One-dimensional flow; 5. Both rock and fluid are compressible; 6. The reservoir is heterogeneous and anisotropic; 7. Capillary force and gravity are not considered.

[0021] Step 2: Based on the flow state physical model of step 1, combined with Darcy's seepage theory and mass conservation theory, the chemical reaction between CO2 and formation minerals and the change in oil phase viscosity caused by dissolution into the oil phase are applied in the state equation in the form of a formula, and a seepage model of CO2 entering the reservoir is established. In the radial one-dimensional cylindrical coordinate system, the mass continuity equation is used to calculate the water phase, oil phase and CO2 liquid phase respectively, and the water phase formula, oil phase formula and CO2 gas phase formula are obtained.

[0022] In the embodiment of the present invention, step 2 includes: The dissolution of CO2 in water during the storage process, the special reaction between the generated carbonic acid and the formation minerals, and the change of formation porosity due to geochemical reactions during the mineralization process; the change law of formation medium porosity with effective volume strain is: ; (1) in is the effective volume strain, is the geochemical volume strain, is the adsorption strain, is the pore pressure induced strain, is the volume strain; and are the initial porosity and current porosity, respectively; For initial , in the initial state, both the volume strain and the chemical volume strain are zero; is the initial pore pressure; for , formula (1) is simplified to: ; (2) According to formula (2), the formation porosity is affected by the volume strain of the formation medium and is related to the pore pressure, geochemical volume strain and adsorption-induced volume strain.

[0023] In the embodiment of the present invention, step 2 further includes: CO2 is easily soluble in crude oil, which significantly reduces the viscosity of crude oil. The greater the initial viscosity of crude oil, the more obvious the range of its decrease. The main function of CO2 in reducing the viscosity of crude oil is to improve the fluidity of crude oil, so that a small amount of displacement agent can achieve a certain oil displacement efficiency; or a certain amount of displacement agent can achieve a higher displacement effect.

[0024] The effect of formation pressure on crude oil viscosity is decomposed into two parts, namely, the effect of pressure change on viscosity when there is no CO2 dissolution and the effect of pressure change on crude oil viscosity when CO2 dissolves and precipitates in crude oil; the reactions of these two parts to pressure changes are inconsistent, which leads to the emergence of saturation pressure; when the pressure is higher than the saturation pressure, the effect of crude oil volume on crude oil viscosity accounts for the main part, and the volume of crude oil will decrease with the increase of pressure, resulting in increased viscosity; and when the pressure is lower than the saturation pressure, the effect of CO2 dissolution in crude oil on crude oil viscosity accounts for the main part, and as the pressure decreases, dissolved gas will overflow from the crude oil, causing the heavy hydrocarbon components to condense, thus showing a sharp increase in viscosity; the relationship between viscosity and saturation is developed as follows: ; (3) in, , , , is the coefficient by which crude oil viscosity changes with the solubility of gas in the crude oil.

[0025] At the center of the unit body, point O, along the direction of reservoir flow, the seepage velocity of free gas under standard conditions is , the seepage velocity of gas dissolved in oil and water under standard conditions is , ,in , is the dissolved gas-oil ratio, dissolved gas-water ratio; Under standard conditions, CO2 gas phase In time along x The difference in the gas mass flowing into and out of the unit cell in the direction is expressed as: ; exist The mass increment of the standard volume gas in the unit body within a certain time period is expressed as: ; The mass conservation equation of the gas component is expressed as: ; That is: ; During the oil displacement process, the three-phase fluid of oil, gas and water flows in the porous medium, and the flow obeys Darcy's law. The equation form of Darcy's law in the Cartesian coordinate system is: ; Substituting into the mass conservation equation of the gas component, the CO2 gas phase expression can be obtained as follows: ; Similarly, the oil phase expression can be obtained as follows: ; The aqueous phase expression is: .

[0026] Step 3: According to the water phase formula, oil phase formula and CO2 gas phase formula in step 2, the calculation area is divided into differential grids to obtain a finite number of grid nodes, and the finite number of grid nodes are used to replace the continuous solution domain.

[0027] In the embodiment of the present invention, step three includes: Assuming that capillary forces are neglected, , and order , , ; Substituting the above into the oil phase formula, water phase formula and CO2 gas phase formula, we can get: ; make , , , where the density , gas solubility , porosity are all functions of pressure P. , , The derivatives in are expanded according to time, and we can get: ; ; ; There are ,so We can get: ; Available through To eliminate , Then there is only one unknown quantity in the formula that needs to be solved : ; in, ; ; ; ; ; ; ; ; Then the oil phase formula, water phase formula and CO2 gas phase formula can be multiplied by the corresponding coefficients on the left and added to obtain: ; (7) No. The gas phase of unit number, the mass of gas passing through cylinder j is: ; The mass of gas passing through cylinder j-1 is: ; The gas mass increment of unit j is: ; The volume of unit j is: ; Then for the above formula (7), we can get: ; The proof is as follows: ; Similarly, we can get: ; (8) ; (9) ; (10) Then formula (7) is discretized for time t, from arrive In the time; for the radius r discretization, from arrive ;get: ; have to: ; have to: ; Logarithmic transformation in the radial direction Then discretize it, and get: ; After finishing, we can get: ; (11) For the total grid divided, the pressure of the N-1th unit is calculated, and the pressure of the Nth unit adopts the formation pressure.

[0028] In the embodiment of the present invention, a finite number of grid nodes replaces a continuous solution domain to construct a matrix for solving pressure by using the obtained equation for solving pressure, such as Figure 2 The grid and unit division and numbering shown are as follows: the unit number is 1 to N, the node number is 0 to N, and the radius r Discretize into x , which is the radius r 0 to r N Corresponding to the discretized x 0 to x N ; For each unit, the physical quantity to be solved is the three-phase permeability on the boundary K r Right now K r*0 to K r*N , three-phase pressure P Right now P 1 to P N-1 , pressure difference DP Right now DP 0 to DP N-1 , and three-phase saturation S Right now S *1 to S *N-1 ,in S w0 is the water phase saturation in the wellbore, which is 0; S o0 is the oil phase saturation in the wellbore, which is 0; S g0 is the gas saturation in the wellbore, which is 1; this is an explanation of the construction of parameters in the matrix equation. The upstream weight method is used to determine the relative permeability, so that the pressure at time n can be solved by the pressure at time n-1, and then the pressure difference, saturation and permeability can be solved.

[0029] The general formula for pressure solution is derived from the oil phase formula, water phase formula and CO2 gas phase formula to obtain the pressure solution equation for each unit. The pressure solution equations of all units are combined to form a pressure solution matrix, thereby solving the pressure of each unit. Unit division: Discretization on radial radius r , forming a unit sequence .

[0030] Step 4: Based on the solution domain in step 3, calculate and obtain the relationship between CO2 saturation, radius and time.

[0031] In the embodiment of the present invention, step 4 includes: According to the solution domain, substitute formulas (8), (9), and (10) into formulas (4), (5), and (6), and discretize time t, from arrive In time, we get: ; ; ; After finishing, we can get: ; ; ; make ; It is the slope of saturation changing with time, which is a function of saturation and complies with the upstream weight method; after each pressure is calculated, a small step of MT is used. To calculate the saturation [S], the adaptive time step method .

[0032] Step 5: Form a prediction model by changing the relationship, input the CO2 injection volume, injection pressure, and reservoir parameters, and predict the CO2 storage or oil recovery status.

[0033] In the embodiment of the present invention, a program is written in combination with a theoretical algorithm to form a prediction model, and the simulation process includes: Set the formation model parameters, such as setting the layer height grid division, simulation time, etc.; set the initial conditions, such as pressure, initial saturation, porosity, etc.; calculate the relative permeability of the three phases of oil, gas and water; solve the pressure P implicitly through the matrix; correct the porosity according to the geophysical and chemical reactions, and apply viscosity fitting correction; solve the saturation of the three phases of oil, gas and water; calculate the time step, and determine the simulation time, and complete the simulation based on the judgment result.

[0034] Depend on Figures 3 to 5It can be seen that the horizontal axis is the displacement radius of the formation, and the vertical axis is the saturation of the three phases of water, oil, and CO2 gas. It can be clearly seen from the saturation curves of the three phases that: the front and rear sections of the water phase saturation curve are roughly unchanged, the middle section curve shifts to the left, and the water phase saturation increases; the front and rear sections of the oil phase saturation curve are roughly unchanged, the middle section curve shifts to the left, and the oil phase saturation increases; the front and rear sections of the CO2 gas phase saturation curve are roughly unchanged, the middle section curve shifts to the left, and the gas phase saturation decreases. During the displacement process, the water and oil phases that dissolved CO2 gas reacted with the formation to expand the formation gap. The continuous erosion of the formation by the water and oil phases caused the water and oil saturations to increase and the CO2 gas saturation to decrease.

[0035] Depend on Figures 6 to 8 It can be seen that the horizontal axis is the displacement radius of the formation, and the vertical axis is the saturation of the three phases of water, oil, and CO2 gas. It can be clearly seen from the saturation curves of the three phases that the front section of the water phase saturation curve moves to the left, the middle section moves roughly to the left, the saturation rise rate increases, and the back end does not change roughly; the front section of the oil phase saturation curve moves to the right, the middle section moves roughly to the right, the saturation rise rate increases, and the back end does not change roughly; the front section of the CO2 gas phase saturation curve moves to the right, the middle section moves roughly to the right, the saturation decrease rate increases, and the back end does not change roughly. CO2 is easily soluble in crude oil, which significantly reduces the viscosity of crude oil, increases the fluidity of crude oil, enhances the efficiency of CO2 oil displacement, increases the displacement radius, and the oil phase saturation curve shifts to the right as a whole; due to the increase in the overall fluidity of the oil phase, the immiscible displacement contact between CO2 gas and crude oil is insufficient, which reduces the peak value of the oil phase saturation. For the water and CO2 gas phases, the increase in oil phase fluidity leads to the acceleration of CO2 immiscible displacement and the increase in the saturation of the water and CO2 gas phases.
