[0002] At present, offshore oilfield development mostly involves deploying directional wells first to exploit the oil for a period of time, and then conducting horizontal wells to tap the remaining oil in specific strata. However, the deployment of horizontal wells will cause certain interference to the original directional wells.

[0003] Existing interference is mostly studied from five aspects, including indoor physical simulation experiments, reservoir numerical simulation calculations, reservoir engineering dynamic analysis, computer algorithm model training, and mathematical model establishment. However, after the deployment of horizontal wells, there are still problems such as unclear understanding of the degree of interference and insufficient quantification of the production law of the original directional well group, and there is a lack of strong guidance for the efficient tapping of residual oil by infilling horizontal wells in directional well groups.

[0004] Therefore, the present invention provides a method for identifying and optimizing the interference between wells in water-drive oil reservoirs based on the joint well network deployment. It innovatively considers the two modes of deploying horizontal wells, and realizes the calculation of relevant development indicators of the directional well group after the deployment of horizontal wells.

[0074] The embodiments of the present invention are further described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings:

[0075] like Figure 1 As shown, the method for identifying and optimizing the well-to-well interference in a water-drive reservoir based on the deployment of a joint well network includes the following steps.

[0076] S1: Collect basic static geological, dynamic development and engineering data of oil reservoirs and convert horizontal well substitution ratio. Figure 2 As shown, S1 includes the following steps.

[0077] S11: The substitution ratio R is used to represent the ratio of the oil leakage area of ​​the directional well to that of the horizontal well.

[0078] In an oil reservoir, when the production of a horizontal well is equal to the sum of the production of R directional wells, R is the replacement ratio. For a directional well, its drainage area can be regarded as a circle. If the drainage radius of a single well is r e , then the single well leakage area S is:

[0079]

[0080] For the area oil recovery index A U , which is equal to the ratio of the oil recovery index U to the oil leakage area:

[0081]

[0082] Assume that two well pattern systems I and J are deployed in the same oil reservoir, where system I is a horizontal well production well pattern and system J is a directional well production well pattern. The well spacing, number of wells, and single well drainage radius (r ei , r ej ) are different, but the area production index (A Ui , A Uj ) are the same, that is:

[0083]

[0084] Replace the wells of system J with the wells of system I:

[0085]

[0086] S12: Conversion of drainage area between directional wells and horizontal wells.

[0087] For horizontal wells, the drainage area S H for:

[0088]

[0089] The horizontal well drainage area S H It can also be equivalent to the effective oil leakage radius r eh The area of ​​the circle:

[0090]

[0091] So we have:

[0092]

[0093] For the oil production index of horizontal wells and directional wells, there are:

[0094]

[0095] Right now

[0096]

[0097] After conversion, we can get

[0098]

[0099] and

[0100]

[0101] r e Convert to Available

[0102]

[0103] Based on the research on horizontal wells, Joshi proposed that the main semi-axis of the horizontal well drainage ellipse and the effective wellbore radius of the horizontal well are expressed as follows:

[0104]

[0105] in:

[0106] Where: R is the replacement ratio, dimensionless; S is the single well drainage area of ​​the directional well, unit is m 2 ; S H is the single well drainage area of ​​horizontal well, in m 2 ; r e is the directional well drainage radius, in m; r eh is the effective drainage radius of the horizontal well, in meters; U H is the horizontal well production index, unit is m / (d·MPa); U v is the directional well production index, unit is m / (d·MPa); q H is the oil production rate of the horizontal well, in m 3 / d;q v is the oil production rate of the directional well, in m 3 / d;Δp H is the horizontal well production pressure difference, in MPa; Δp v is the production pressure difference of the directional well, in MPa; r w is the radius of the directional wellbore, in meters; r wv′ is the effective wellbore radius of the horizontal well, in m; a is the main semi-axis of the horizontal well drainage circle, in m; L is the length of the horizontal section, in m; h is the oil layer thickness, in m; K h is the horizontal permeability, in mD; K v is the vertical permeability, in mD; β is the reservoir heterogeneity coefficient, dimensionless.

[0107] S13: Iterative calculation of the substitution ratio R.

[0108] Firstly, the static parameters of the reservoir and the length of the horizontal section of the horizontal well are determined. Given the initial value of the substitution ratio R = 1.0, the effective wellbore radius r of the horizontal well with equivalent circular drainage area obtained by the two calculation methods is obtained by substituting it into equations (14) and (16) respectively. wv1 ′ and the effective wellbore radius r of the horizontal well with elliptical drainage area wv2 ′. Through iterative calculation, when the given R can satisfy r wv ′=r wv2 ′, that is, C=|r wv ′-r wv2 ′|≤ε(infinitely small), then it is the final substitution ratio; if C≤ε is not satisfied, R=1.0+0.01, and continue the iterative calculation until C≤ε is satisfied.

[0109] S2: Based on the reservoir engineering method, the time series calculation is adopted without injection-production relationship adjustment, that is, the direction, small layer, and single well development indicators without horizontal well deployment, to simulate the changes in oilfield development at each moment. Specifically, S2 includes the following steps.

[0110] S21: Calculation of water well splitting coefficient,

[0111] Taking formation coefficient, location coefficient and well spacing as splitting calculation parameters, the calculation formula is:

[0112]

[0113] Where: is the average formation coefficient, in μm 2 m; α ik is the position coefficient; D ik is the well spacing, in m.

[0114] The calculation process of each parameter is as follows:

[0115] S211: Calculate the average formation coefficient,

[0116] For the water well formation coefficient and the oil well formation coefficient, the product of the effective permeability in the direction of oil-water well connection and the sandstone thickness is mainly calculated. The specific calculation formula is:

[0117]

[0118] Where: K i is the effective permeability of the injection well, in μm 2 ;H i is the water injection thickness, in m; K k is the effective permeability of the oil well, in μm 2 ;H k It is the production thickness, in m.

[0119] S212: Calculate the position coefficient,

[0120] The position coefficient of a certain layer in a certain direction of a well is equal to the square root of the product of the azimuth in that direction and the number of effective oil wells around the well divided by 360.

[0121] The specific calculation formula is:

[0122]

[0123] Where: n is the number of effective oil wells around the water well, in units of mouth; θ is the azimuth, in degrees.

[0124] S213: Well spacing calculation,

[0125] Calculate the distance between oil and water wells in the connection direction. The specific calculation formula is:

[0126]

[0127] D ik ′=lnD ik (19)

[0128] Where: x i is the horizontal coordinate of the injection well, in m; i is the vertical coordinate of the injection well, in m; x k is the horizontal coordinate of the oil well, in m; y k is the vertical coordinate of the oil well, in m; D ik ′ is the logarithmic well spacing.

[0129] S22: Calculation of oil well splitting coefficient,

[0130] According to the formation coefficient, location coefficient, relative permeability, injection coefficient and well spacing, the calculation formulas for the oil production splitting condition value and the water production splitting condition value are:

[0131]

[0132]

[0133] Where: K rois the relative permeability of the oil phase; K rw is the relative permeability of water phase; B ki is the water injection coefficient.

[0134] The parameters are calculated as follows:

[0135] S221: Calculation of water injection coefficient,

[0136] The directional water production and oil production of each small layer of the oil well are related to the water injection volume split from the connected water well to the oil well. The directional water injection coefficient calculation formula is:

[0137]

[0138] Where: W ki is the water injection volume in the splitting direction, in m 3 .

[0139] S222: Oil saturation and relative permeability calculation,

[0140] The calculation of oil saturation and relative permeability is obtained through the relationship curve between water saturation and relative permeability. The seepage area is fan-shaped, and the radius of the fan is set to d, the arc is θ, and the arc is θ. Then:

[0141]

[0142] Where: S 扇 is the seepage area, in m 2 ; r0 is the starting position of the oil-water two-phase region, unit is m; r is any position in the oil-water two-phase region, unit is m.

[0143] The isosaturation surface movement equation is:

[0144]

[0145] Where: S is the area of ​​the circular seepage region, in m 2 ;f w ′ is the derivative of water content corresponding to water saturation; h is the oil layer thickness, in m; φ is the porosity; W(t) is the cumulative injection volume, in m 3 .

[0146] However, the actual seepage area is a fan-shaped area, so we can get:

[0147]

[0148] Where: r is any position of the two-phase region in the connecting direction, in m; r0 is the radius of the injection well, in m; φ is the porosity in the connecting direction; Q is the injection volume in the connecting direction, in m 3 / d; t is the development time, the unit is d.

[0149] Transforming formula (25), we can get:

[0150]

[0151] Where: d is the distance between the effective well and the injection well, in meters; t0 is the water breakthrough time, in days.

[0152] According to the relative permeability data, the water content and its derivative corresponding to different water saturations are calculated to obtain the change of water content at different times.

[0153] S23: Calculation of direction, sub-layer and single well development indicators.

[0154] The sum of the oil production splitting coefficient and the water production splitting coefficient is the liquid production splitting coefficient. The overall calculation idea is to calculate the splitting condition value and splitting coefficient from direction to small layer and then to single well, and calculate the liquid production, oil production, water production and water content from single well to small layer and then to direction. First, according to the injection-production ratio of the well group and the splitting coefficient of each effective well, the single well liquid production is calculated, and then the single layer liquid production, oil production, water production and water content are calculated according to the oil production splitting coefficient and water production splitting coefficient of the small layer; finally, according to the oil production splitting coefficient and water production splitting coefficient of the direction, the liquid production, oil production, water production and water content in each direction can be obtained.

[0155] S3: Establish the deployment mode of horizontal wells in the original seepage area, perform weighted average of the relative permeability of each part of the seepage area of ​​the horizontal well based on the arc, and calculate the direction, small layer, and single well development indicators of the horizontal well when deployed outside the original seepage area. Specifically, S3 includes the following steps:

[0156] S31: Compared with S2, the difference in the calculation method is mainly reflected in the difference in the phase permeability value. First, the seepage area after the deployment of the horizontal well is divided.

[0157] like Figure 3 As shown, in the fan-shaped seepage area S of Well O1 扇aWb S with fan-shaped seepage area of ​​well O2 扇bWc The horizontal well H1 is deployed between the two wells. The horizontal well is regarded as a directional well with a substitution ratio of R, and its fan-shaped seepage area is S 扇dWe .

[0158] For the well layout pattern in the original seepage area, by dividing the seepage area of ​​the equivalent circle of the horizontal well drainage area, the development dynamics of the original seepage area overlapped by each part just before the horizontal well was put into production are expressed as the initial development dynamics of each part of the seepage area of ​​the equivalent circle of the horizontal well drainage area. Figure 4 As shown, the fan-shaped S 扇dWe Divided into S 扇dWH1 and S 扇H1We Two parts, including:

[0159] 1. Sector S 扇dWH1 In the sector S 扇fWb Within the seepage area, it belongs to the original fan-shaped seepage area S of Well O1. 扇aWb , so, the sector S 扇dWH1 The regional water content, water saturation and relative permeability of oil and water phases are consistent with the development performance of Well O1.

[0160] 2. Sector S 扇H1We In the sector S 扇bWg Within the seepage area, it belongs to the fan-shaped seepage area S of the original O2 well 扇bWc , so, the sector S 扇H1We The water content, water saturation and relative permeability of oil and water phases in the region are consistent with the development performance of O2 well.

[0161] S32: Phase permeability calculation,

[0162] From the isosaturation surface movement equation, we know that well H1 is uniformly displaced within the seepage area. 扇dWH1 and sector S 扇H1We Within the regional range, the fluid supply per unit area within the seepage area of ​​well H1 is the same, so at a certain moment, the fan S 扇dWH1 and sector S 扇H1We The ratio of the total liquid supply is equal to the ratio of the fan-shaped areas,

[0163]

[0164] For the sector S 扇dWH1 and sector S 扇H1We , the ratio of their areas is equal to the ratio of their radians,

[0165]

[0166] The relative permeability of the two areas is weighted with respect to the arc, and the seepage area S is calculated. 扇dWe The average relative permeability is:

[0167]

[0168] Where: d H is the distance between the horizontal well and the central water well, in m; r0 is the radius of the injection well, in m; θ1 is the arc of area 1; θ2 is the arc of area 2; K ro1 , K rw1 , K ro2 , K rw2 The oil and water phase permeability in regions 1 and 2 respectively; The average relative permeabilities of oil phase and water phase in area 1 and area 2 respectively.

[0169] S4: Establish a deployment mode of horizontal wells outside the original seepage area, perform weighted average of the relative permeability of each part of the seepage area of ​​the horizontal well based on the area and arc, and calculate the direction, small layer, and single well development indicators of the horizontal wells deployed outside the original seepage area. Specifically, S4 includes the following steps.

[0170] S41: Compared with S2, the difference in the calculation method is mainly reflected in the difference in the phase permeability value. First, the seepage area after the deployment of the horizontal well is divided.

[0171] like Figure 5 As shown, in the fan-shaped seepage area S of Well O1 扇aWb S with fan-shaped seepage area of ​​well O2 扇bWc The horizontal well H2 is deployed externally. The horizontal well is regarded as a directional well with a substitution ratio of R, and its fan-shaped seepage area is S 扇fWg .

[0172] For the well arrangement outside the original seepage area, the seepage area of ​​the horizontal well is divided, and the overlapping part with the original seepage area before the horizontal well is put into production is represented by the development dynamics of the original seepage area before production; for the non-overlapping area, its water saturation and relative permeability are both original, and are represented by bound water saturation.
