Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the field of oilfield exploitation, and in particular relates to an exploitation method for improving the recovery rate of a medium-phase microemulsion flooding in a conglomerate oil reservoir. Background Art

[0002] At present, the development of most domestic oil fields has entered the late stage of medium-high water content, with a water content of nearly 90%, and the water flooding method can basically not further improve the recovery rate. Therefore, it is necessary to find a replacement technology after water flooding. In recent years, my country's chemical flooding technology has developed rapidly. Field practice has shown that chemical flooding can effectively slow down the decline in production, inhibit the increase in water content, improve the recovery rate, and increase economic benefits. However, polymer flooding, binary and ternary composite flooding cannot achieve the requirements of significantly improving the recovery rate, and cannot meet the development needs of low permeability oil fields and high-temperature and high-mineralization oil fields. Microemulsion flooding can effectively solve the above problems. Microemulsion is a transparent or translucent emulsion with thermodynamic stability formed by surfactants, additives, oil and water or electrolyte aqueous solution in appropriate proportions, with a particle size between 10-200nm. The microemulsion system has ultra-low interfacial tension, which can effectively reduce the capillary force of oil droplets at the pore throat, reduce the resistance to oil droplet movement, and improve the wettability of the interface, making the oil droplets easier to flow, thereby reducing the starting pressure and water injection pressure. The middle phase microemulsion is the most ideal microemulsion system, with high surface activity and solubilization ability. It can solubilize both oil and water, making the displacement fluid and the displaced fluid miscible, improving the flow ratio, and greatly increasing the recovery rate. At present, the main research directions for the middle phase microemulsion flooding are concentrated on the development of oil displacement system, phase behavior and synergistic solubilization performance mechanism.

[0003] The conglomerate reservoirs in Xinjiang Oilfield have a typical complex modal pore structure, which not only includes structures composed of various particle sizes such as gravel, sand, and mud, but also includes a pore-fracture system composed of primary pores and secondary pores. The gravel edge fractures and intra-grain fractures are obviously developed, resulting in the conglomerate reservoirs having complex pore structures, poor connectivity, development of dominant channels, and strong heterogeneity. During the middle phase microemulsion flooding process, the oil displacement system tends to flow along the high permeability layer, resulting in the inability of the injected part of the oil displacement system to effectively affect the medium and low permeability layers, forming an inefficient and ineffective cycle. Therefore, it is necessary to study the mining method of improving the recovery rate of the middle phase microemulsion flooding, clarify the injection parameters and injection methods of the oil displacement system, and timely regulate the site to ensure the implementation effect on site. The application value is relatively large, but no relevant literature reports have been found. Summary of the invention

As shown in Tables 1 to 3.

[0054]

[0055]

[0056] Example 3

[0057] The mining method is as follows:

[0058] (1) Dry the core in an oven, weigh the dry weight, saturate the core with brine (concentration of 30,000 mg / L) under vacuum filtration, weigh the wet weight of the core, and calculate the pore volume and porosity of the core. Place the core in a core holder, use brine (concentration of 30,000 mg / L) for water flooding, record the stable pressure difference, and calculate the water permeability; use brine (concentration of 30,000 mg / L) for water flooding at an injection rate of 0.5 mL / min, and record the water flooding oil recovery efficiency;

[0063] Table 5 Effect of different main segment plug injection methods on the recovery of medium phase microemulsion flooding

[0064]

[0065] Compared with the oil displacement experiment of water flooding + high concentration polymer flooding + low concentration polymer flooding + middle phase microemulsion flooding + subsequent water flooding in Example 2, as shown in Table 5, it can be seen that the oil displacement efficiency of water flooding + high concentration polymer flooding + low concentration polymer flooding + middle phase microemulsion flooding + subsequent water flooding is higher than the oil displacement efficiency of water flooding + single concentration polymer flooding + middle phase microemulsion flooding + subsequent water flooding.

[0066] Comparative Example 1

[0067] The difference between the method of this comparative example and that of Example 2 is that the front slug is different.

[0080]

[0081] Comparative Example 3 Effect of different main segment plug injection methods on the recovery of medium phase microemulsion flooding (this comparative example adopts water flooding + high concentration medium phase microemulsion flooding + low concentration medium phase microemulsion flooding + subsequent water flooding)

[0082] (1) Dry the core in an oven, weigh the dry weight, saturate the core with brine (concentration of 30,000 mg / L) under vacuum filtration, weigh the wet weight of the core, and calculate the pore volume and porosity of the core.

[0087] The oil displacement experiments of water flooding + single-concentration middle phase microemulsion flooding + subsequent water flooding and water flooding + high-concentration middle phase microemulsion flooding + low-concentration middle phase microemulsion flooding + subsequent water flooding were compared, as shown in Table 7. It can be seen that the oil displacement efficiency of water flooding + polymer flooding + middle phase microemulsion flooding + subsequent water flooding is higher than that of water flooding + middle phase microemulsion flooding + subsequent water flooding.

[0089]

[0090] Example 3: Medium-phase microemulsion flooding injection regulation

[0091] ① Based on the original polymer concentration of 1500 mg / L, experiments were carried out to increase the polymer concentration to test the pressure increase, as shown in Table 8. It can be seen that as the polymer concentration increases, the pressure increase also increases. When the polymer concentration increases to 600 mg / L, the pressure increase tends to be stable.

[0092] Table 8 Comparison of pressure rise range with increasing polymer concentration

[0093]

[0094] ② Screening and evaluation of profile control system

[0095] The profile control system selected phenolic gel crosslinker, the preparation water was 30000 mg / L saline, the polymer molecular weight was 10 million, the crosslinker concentration was 4000 mg / L, the additive concentration was 5000 mg / L, and under the same conditions, the effects of different polymer concentrations on the viscosity of the profile control agent were compared, as shown in Table 9. As the polymer concentration continued to increase, the viscosity of the profile control agent also continued to increase. When the polymer concentration was 3000 mg / L, the viscosity of the profile control agent was optimal.

[0096] Table 9 Effect of polymer concentration on gel viscosity at different times

[0097]

[0098] The polymer molecular weight is 10 million, the polymer concentration is 3000 mg / L, and the additive concentration is 5000 mg / L. Under the same conditions, the effects of different concentrations of cross-linking agent on the viscosity of the profile control agent are compared, as shown in Table 10. When the cross-linking agent concentration is 4000 mg / L, the viscosity of the profile control agent is optimal.

[0099] Table 10 Effect of crosslinker concentration on gel viscosity at different times

[0100]

[0101]

[0102] The polymer molecular weight is 10 million, the polymer concentration is 3000 mg / L, the cross-linking agent concentration is 4000 mg / L, the additives are phenol, thiourea, sodium chloride and sodium bicarbonate, and the mass ratio is 3:2:1:1. Under the same conditions, the effects of different concentrations of cross-linking agents on the viscosity of the profile control agent are compared, as shown in Table 11. When the additive concentration is 5000 mg / L, the viscosity of the profile control agent is optimal.

[0104]

[0105] The effects of profile control slug size and slug combination on the enhanced oil recovery of medium-phase microemulsion flooding were studied, as shown in Table 12. It can be seen that when the profile control slug size is 0.05PV and the high viscosity-low viscosity-high viscosity slug combination is adopted, the enhanced oil recovery of medium-phase microemulsion flooding is the highest.
