[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of oil and gas field development, in particular to a mining method for improving gas injection recovery after horizontal well fracturing by using straight well pressure regulation. BACKGROUND
[0002] Field tests show that whether the CO2 huff and puff gas cavity is closed and whether the formation pressure is increased become the key factors affecting the recovery of dense oil horizontal well fracturing after gas injection. The interwell fracture connection mode, connection degree, pressure distribution and its complexity are complex and variable, and it is difficult to achieve only by using horizontal well to adjust the formation pressure.
[0003] At present, CO2 huff and puff operation is mostly carried out by two horizontal wells in a general gas injection mode, gas channeling is obvious, and the production effect is poor. From the point of view of oil production technology, the selective gas injection technology of coiled tubing + packer is not mature, and the construction risk of full well section gel temporary plugging + CO2 huff and puff mode is very large. Therefore, there is an urgent need for a mining method that can further improve the recovery of horizontal wells under the condition of fracture network connection after horizontal well volume fracturing.

The technical scheme of the patent overcomes the disadvantages of traditional pre-gas injection technology, fully utilizes the high conductivity fractures and gravity in the fracture network, enhances the formation energy, improves the flow capacity of crude oil, forms a more complex fracture network, and finally realizes the suppression of production decline during the whole life cycle of the horizontal well after production, prolongs the stable production period, and improves the recovery. However, the technical scheme of the patent is only for the development of original oil reservoir, which does not meet the actual situation of current oil field development, and is not applicable to the oil field well which has been deployed with multiple horizontal wells and formed fracture network by volume fracturing.

[0055] Step S1. Determine the strong connectivity position of the fracture network between horizontal wells: comprehensively analyze regional geological logging data, microseismic monitoring data, high-frequency pressure monitoring data and fracturing operation data, calculate the fracture connectivity coefficient of each section between wells, and determine the position of the strong connectivity well section.
[0056] The formula for calculating the fracture connectivity coefficient of each section between wells is:
[0057]
[0058] In the above formula (1), C is the fracture connectivity coefficient of each section between wells; k is the unit conversion coefficient, dimensionless; μ is the viscosity of the fracturing fluid, mPa·s; L is the half-fracture length, m; v is the Poisson's ratio, decimal; P f is the fluid pressure in the fracture, MPa; σ h is the minimum horizontal principal stress, MPa; E is the interwell Young's modulus, MPa; ΔP is the net pressure in the fracture, MPa; Q is the operation displacement, L / min.

[0065] Step S301. Test: inject water containing a tracer into the vertical well at a set displacement, while monitoring the tracer arrival time of the two horizontal wells, and determine the water channeling channel volume of the vertical well according to the water injection displacement and the tracer arrival time.
[0066] Step S302. Selecting agent: judging the connection type between the horizontal sections of the two horizontal wells according to the size relationship between the water channeling passage volume of the vertical well and the vertical well control pore volume, and selecting the pressure regulating fluid medium system according to the connection type.
[0067] Wherein, the connection type between the horizontal sections of the two horizontal wells is judged according to the size relationship between the water channeling passage volume of the vertical well and the vertical well control pore volume, and specifically includes:

[0082] Step S5: repeating steps S3-S4, carrying out the next round operation until the horizontal well and the vertical well reach the economic limit production.
[0083] Wherein, before repeating step S3 to inject the pressure regulating fluid medium system into the vertical well, the communication strength of the vertical well and the horizontal well is monitored:
[0084] If the communication strength is enhanced, the pressure regulating fluid medium system is selected to be water and temperature response type gel temporary plugging agent;
[0085] If the communication strength is reduced, first, water with a temperature of 15-25℃ higher than the temperature of the oil layer is injected into the vertical well to deblock the early temporary plugging agent, and then a profile control system of water and a surfactant is selected for injection.

The single well control reserve is 250,000 tons, and the current production is 2 years, the first year single well cumulative oil production is 0.84 thousand tons, the two-year single well cumulative oil production is 1.23 thousand tons, and the recovery degree is 4.91%. According to the volume fracturing depletion type decline development, it is predicted that in 10 years, the monthly decline rate is 0.01, the single well cumulative oil production is 3.13 thousand tons, and the recovery degree is 12.56%.

The profile control operation steps are as follows: a straight well is arranged at the position of the matrix strong connectivity section, the straight well is drilled by casing perforation, a water and surfactant profile control system is selected to be injected into the straight well, the formation pressure of the region is balanced by the straight well, and the profile control operation is performed. After profile control, two horizontal wells are subjected to CO2 huff and puff operation. The gas injection amount of the two horizontal wells is 60,000 tons.
[0105] The third scheme is that a straight well is arranged for profile control, and two horizontal wells and one straight well are subjected to CO2 huff and puff after profile control.

After profile control, two horizontal wells and one straight well are subjected to CO2 huff and puff operation. The gas injection amount of the two horizontal wells is 60,000 tons, and the gas injection amount of the straight well is 6,000 tons.
[0106] The relevant economic cost is that the injection of 1 ton of CO2 is 500 yuan, the drilling and completion cost of the straight well is 8 million yuan, and the injection of the surfactant profile control system is 0.5 million yuan.
[0107] The relevant technical parameter is that CO2 huff and puff is 5 rounds, 1 round is huffed and puffed in 2 years, and the single well gas injection amount of the horizontal well is 6,000 tons.
