Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of oilfield gas channeling prevention technology, and in particular to a comprehensive control method and system for preventing gas channeling. Background Technology
[0002] Currently, some offshore oil fields are gradually adopting gas-driven methods to improve oil recovery. Due to the heterogeneity of offshore oil field reservoirs and the strong breakthrough capability of gas itself, gas channeling has become an inevitable trend. Once serious gas channeling occurs, it will lead to ineffective subsequent gas-driven operations and reduce production efficiency.
[0003] Offshore gas-injected oilfields are generally low-to-medium permeability oilfields. Under long-term, high-intensity gas injection, the reservoir develops lateral tongues, making it extremely prone to gas channeling and forming gas channeling pathways. Currently, for gas channeling pathways formed in offshore oilfields, the method of alternating water and gas is often used for regulation and plugging, considering both economic and production benefits. However, this single method is often not ideal for gas channeling control under the special conditions of strong injection and production at sea. Summary of the Invention

Therefore, emulsion polymerization is used to prepare microspheres containing siloxanes and AMPS. Based on the optimized two plugging methods, combined regulation is implemented to effectively control gas channeling and thus improve oil recovery. Attached Figure Description

Microspheres are then introduced into the core reservoir to block high-permeability gas channeling that occurs during gas drive following the alternating water-gas injection method, thus achieving composite gas channeling control. This setup allows for the optimization of the optimal alternating water-gas injection process, followed by the synthesis of high-temperature and salt-resistant emulsion polymerized microspheres.

[0070] Furthermore, based on the above-described solution of the present invention, the technical solution of the present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings in a specific embodiment.
[0071] Example 1
[0072] Comprehensive control methods for preventing gas channeling include:
[0073] (1) Determine the water-air alternating injection method
[0074] Natural gas was injected until gas channeling occurred, then water-gas alternation was initiated with a slug displacement of 0.2 PV and a slug ratio of 1:1. Subsequent post-gas drive was then performed until severe gas channeling occurred. (Evaluation methods refer to SY / T5590-2004 "Evaluation Method for Profile Control Agents"). Experimental results are shown in Table 1 below. Figure 1 and Figure 2 .
[0075]
[0076] Table 1
[0077] As shown in Table 1, water-air alternation can effectively delay gas channeling and improve displacement efficiency by more than 10%. Regarding the water-air alternation method, the gas-then-water injection method is slightly more efficient than the water-then-gas injection method. Therefore, this embodiment determines the water-air alternation injection method as the gas-then-water injection method, i.e., gas-water alternation injection. Figure 1 and Figure 2Data shows that the displacement efficiency of the three methods is the same in the initial stage of gas injection. Gas channeling occurs when the injection volume reaches 0.38 PV, at which point the displacement efficiency gradually decreases. During the injection volume of 0.38 PV to 0.63 PV, a water-gas alternation stage begins. Gas-water alternation injection and water-gas alternation injection have slightly higher displacement efficiency than continuous gas injection. In the later gas drive stage, the continuous gas injection method experiences severe gas channeling, leading to ineffective gas drive. The displacement efficiency of gas-water alternation injection and water-gas alternation injection continues to increase, with severe gas channeling occurring at 0.76 PV and 0.74 PV, respectively, resulting in subsequent ineffective gas drive. The injection cause analysis is that in the early continuous gas drive, a large amount of natural gas dissolves in the crude oil, reducing the viscosity of the crude oil and the interfacial tension between the two phases. Therefore, a large amount of crude oil is displaced, resulting in a large increase in displacement efficiency in the early stage. In the water-gas alternation stage, since the continuous gas injection method does not include a slug, gas channeling begins to occur, and the oil displacement efficiency gradually decreases. In the later gas drive stage, severe gas channeling occurs, forming a gas channeling channel that leads to ineffective gas drive. When the injection method is water-gas alternating injection or gas-water alternating injection, the gas channeling that occurred during the early gas injection and oil production is blocked by water, which delays the occurrence of gas channeling. In the later gas drive stage, the gas channeling is not obvious. Due to the effective blocking of water, the sweep efficiency of natural gas is expanded. It comes into contact with crude oil in a relatively low permeable layer, reducing viscosity and interfacial tension, thereby improving the displacement efficiency.
[0078] (2) Determine the injection cycles for alternating gas and water injection.
[0079] The first, second, and third rounds of gas-water alternating injection experiments were conducted under the conditions of alternating gas and water injection, slug size of 0.2 PV, and slug ratio of 1:1. (For evaluation methods, please refer to SY / T5590-2004 "Evaluation Method for Profile Control Agents"). The experimental results are shown in Table 2 below. Figure 3 and Figure 4 .
[0080]
[0081] Table 2
[0082] From Table 2 and Figure 3 , Figure 4Data shows that the number of gas-water alternating injection rounds has a certain impact on the displacement efficiency. The displacement efficiencies of the three rounds are 44.86%, 51.9%, and 52.5%, respectively. The second and third rounds show a more significant improvement in displacement efficiency compared to the first round, with an increase of about 5% to 6%. The displacement efficiency of the third round is 0.4% higher than that of the second round, but the overall difference is not significant. Therefore, this embodiment determines the number of injection rounds for gas-water alternating injection to be two rounds. The reason is that in the gas-water alternating injection stage, the displacement efficiency of multiple rounds is higher than that of a single round because frequent gas-water alternation can enhance the exchange between gas and liquid molecules, achieve a near-miscible state through multiple contacts, reduce viscosity, increase crude oil volume, change the flow properties of crude oil, and expand the swept volume. However, the reason why excessively frequent gas-water alternation has little displacement effect is that the overall slug remains unchanged, and the injection volume in each round is not large. This results in a slightly weaker sealing effect of the water slug, making it easier for gas to break through.
[0083] (3) Determine the water-air alternation section
[0084] An alternating gas-water injection experiment was conducted with different slug sizes under the conditions of alternating gas-water injection method, two injection cycles, and a slug ratio of 1:1. (For evaluation methods, please refer to SY / T5590-2004 "Evaluation Method for Profile Control Agents"). The experimental results are shown in Table 3 and... Figure 5 and Figure 6 .
[0085]
[0086] Table 3
[0087] From Table 3, Figure 5 and Figure 6 Data shows that the gas-water alternating slug has a significant impact on displacement efficiency. The larger the gas-water alternating slug, the higher the displacement efficiency. When the slug reaches 0.2 PV, the increase in displacement efficiency slows down. The final displacement efficiencies of the three types of slugs are 42.88%, 51.05%, and 54.09%, respectively. Therefore, this embodiment determines the gas-water alternating slug size to be 0.2 PV. The reasons are as follows: Firstly, natural gas can contact and mix with the crude oil in the core, achieving viscosity reduction and increasing the crude oil volume, thus improving displacement efficiency. Smaller slugs also lead to smaller gas injection slugs and water slugs. Smaller gas slugs have less contact with crude oil, resulting in lower displacement efficiency compared to larger slugs. Secondly, because water slugs can block gas channeling, smaller water slugs are more prone to gas channeling, and the effect of expanding the affected volume is less effective. Therefore, smaller slugs result in lower displacement efficiency.
[0088] (4) Blocking properties of emulsion polymerized microspheres
[0089] Emulsion polymerized microspheres with a mass concentration of 2000 mg / L and a mass of 0.3 PV were injected forward at 20, 30, and 50 mD, respectively. After 7 days of curing, the permeability of the aqueous phase was measured by injecting simulated formation water. (For evaluation methods, please refer to SY / T5590-2004 "Performance Evaluation Method of Profile Modifiers"). The experimental results are shown in Table 4.
[0090]
[0091] Table 4
[0092] Data shows that microsphere injection systems with three different permeability levels can effectively plug reservoirs in medium and low permeability conditions, with a plugging rate of over 95%.
[0093] (5) Integrated treatment of alternating gas-water injection and microsphere injection
[0094] A composite regulation experiment was conducted under the following conditions: alternating gas-water injection method, two injection cycles, slug size of 0.2 PV, microsphere slug size of 0.3 PV, and mass concentration of 2000 mg / L. (Evaluation methods refer to SY / T5590-2004 "Evaluation Method for Profile Control Agents"). The experimental results are shown in Table 5 and... Figure 7 and Figure 8 .
[0095]
[0096]
[0097] Table 5
[0098] From Table 5, Figure 7 and Figure 8 Data shows that the displacement efficiency of continuous gas drive is 37.35%. Adding a optimized gas-water alternating slug further increases the displacement efficiency to 51.05%. Further enhancing the sealing effect by adding microspheres during the gas-water alternation process results in a displacement efficiency of 76.42%, representing a 24.5% increase compared to the gas-water alternation method. The reason for this is that adding microspheres after the gas-water alternation process effectively blocks the gas migration channels. During microsphere injection, the microspheres migrate towards the channels with higher permeability, i.e., the gas migration channels. At this point, the microspheres absorb water and expand, thus sealing the gas migration pathways and increasing the swept volume, thereby improving the displacement efficiency.
