These drawings and descriptions are not intended to limit the scope of the concept in any way, but rather to illustrate the concept of this application to those skilled in the art through reference to particular embodiments. Detailed Implementation

[0050] Exemplary embodiments will now be described in detail, examples of which are illustrated in the accompanying drawings. When the following description relates to the drawings, unless otherwise indicated, the same numbers in different drawings denote the same or similar elements. The embodiments described in the following exemplary embodiments do not represent all embodiments consistent with this application. Rather, they are merely examples of apparatuses and methods consistent with some aspects of this application as detailed in the appended claims.

[0051] Currently, in shale / tight oil reservoirs, the poor connectivity of pores between fractures limits the extent of oil recovery. Water injection development, due to the low sweep efficiency of fluids in micropores, cannot displace residual oil in the reservoir. Furthermore, the application of conventional reverse pressure flooding (RPF) technology in shale and tight reservoirs faces several challenges. Due to the ultra-low permeability of the reservoir, the injected fluid during RPF struggles to penetrate deep into the reservoir, resulting in a limited sweep volume, reduced oil displacement efficiency, and impact on ultimate recovery. While conventional CO2 displacement technology offers advantages such as reducing interfacial tension, promoting miscibility, lowering viscosity, and altering wettability, CO2 has poor fluidity in shale / tight oil reservoirs. Injected CO2 tends to rapidly penetrate high-permeability channels, resulting in an effective sweep range but failing to effectively displace residual oil in the reservoir, leading to poor development outcomes in shale / tight oil reservoirs. Moreover, quantitative characterization of the burial rate of CO2 injection-enhanced RPF in shale / tight oil reservoirs at different stages has not yet been conducted. In summary, conventional reverse pressure flooding and CO2 flooding technologies have limited effectiveness in shale / tight oil reservoirs and cannot fully realize their potential recovery rate.

[0052] This application provides a method for improving the recovery and burial rate of a variable-stage CO2 injection and reverse hydraulic displacement system. The method involves scanning an experimental core containing injected crude oil to obtain a first nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) curve, and then injecting a predetermined volume of fracturing fluid into the experimental core through a predetermined first port. The experimental core is located in a predetermined container with predetermined first and second ports. The first NMR curve represents the relationship between relaxation time and signal intensity detected from the radio frequency signal of the experimental core. Based on predetermined environmental conditions, the experimental core in the predetermined container is subjected to a well-cooling process. Based on predetermined CO2 injection stage configuration information, CO2 is injected into the experimental core through a predetermined second port to obtain a second NMR curve. This second NMR curve represents the relationship between relaxation time and signal intensity detected from the radio frequency signal of the experimental core. By injecting CO2 and fracturing fluid from different predetermined ports, the method better matches the characteristics of the experimental core, thereby improving the recovery rate. The recovery rate of the experimental core is determined based on the area under the first and second nuclear magnetic resonance curves, and the burial rate of the experimental core is determined based on the volume of injected CO2. The recovery rate represents the proportion of oil obtained from the experimental core relative to the total oil volume of the experimental core, and the burial rate represents the proportion of the core sealed by CO2. Based on the preset CO2 injection stage configuration information, CO2 injection is more suitable for the characteristics of the experimental core, thereby improving the recovery rate and burial rate.

[0053] In magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), relaxation time refers to the time required for an atomic nucleus to recover from an excited state to an equilibrium state. This process involves two main relaxation times: T1 (longitudinal relaxation time) and T2 (lateral relaxation time). T1 (longitudinal relaxation time) refers to the time required for the magnetization vector of an atomic nucleus to recover from a direction perpendicular to the magnetic field to a direction parallel to the magnetic field in a magnetic field. T1 relaxation time describes how quickly a spin system recovers from an excited state to thermal equilibrium. In MRI, T1-weighted imaging primarily reflects the differences in T1 values ​​between tissues; for example, fat, melanin, and proteins show bright high signals, while cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) shows low signals. T2 (lateral relaxation time) refers to the decay and disappearance time of the magnetization vector of an atomic nucleus in a plane perpendicular to the magnetic field in a magnetic field. T2 relaxation time reflects the decay rate of the lateral magnetization component, which is caused by the mutual interference between atomic nuclei and the inhomogeneity of the magnetic field. In T2-weighted imaging, cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) has a long relaxation time and appears as a bright high signal.

[0054] Oil recovery rate refers to the ratio between the actual amount of oil extracted from an oil reservoir and the original geological reserves (total crude oil) in the reservoir.

[0055] In petroleum engineering, saturation typically refers to the volume fraction of a certain fluid (such as water, oil, or gas) within the pores of an oil reservoir. For example, oil saturation refers to the proportion of oil in the pore space. Saturation is an important parameter for assessing reservoir properties and predicting oil recovery.

[0056] Storage efficiency refers to the efficiency of capturing carbon dioxide in the long-term safe storage of geological reservoirs. This concept has become particularly important in the context of addressing climate change and reducing greenhouse gas emissions.

[0057] Figure 1 This is a schematic flowchart illustrating a method for improving oil recovery and burial rate using variable-stage CO2 injection and reverse pressure drive, as provided in an embodiment of this application. Figure 1 As shown, the execution subject of this method can be a server or other servers; this embodiment does not impose any special restrictions here. Figure 1 As shown, the method includes:

[0058] S101. The experimental core containing crude oil is scanned to obtain a first nuclear magnetic resonance curve, and a preset volume of fracturing fluid is injected into the experimental core from a preset first port; wherein, the experimental core is located in a preset container, and the preset container is provided with a preset first port and a preset second port, and the first nuclear magnetic resonance curve characterizes the relationship between relaxation time and signal intensity detected from the radio frequency signal of the experimental core.

[0059] In this context, "experimental core" refers to a core with porosity and permeability consistent with the actual reservoir, but smaller in size, such as any type of shale core or tight oil reservoir core. The terms "first," "second," and "third" in this application do not indicate the order of execution but are only used to distinguish different technical features. Crude oil can be injected into the experimental core through either the first or second port; in most cases, it is injected through the second port. The entire experimental process involves online CT and offline nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR). Therefore, NMR curves are only available at the beginning (after crude oil injection) and the end (after CO2 injection); they are not available at other times.

[0060] Figure 2 This is a schematic diagram of a preset container provided in an embodiment of this application. Figure 2 In this embodiment, a core sample is placed inside a pre-set container 12. The pre-set container is a core holder with two ports: a first port 11 and a second port 16, both of which can be used for injecting materials. In this embodiment, the first port is the outlet for injecting fracturing fluid. During fracturing fluid injection, the outlet pressure is the same as the formation pressure. At the end of CO2 injection, the outlet pressure is connected to atmospheric pressure, at which point the outlet temperature is 25°C and 0 MPa. The second port is the inlet for injecting CO2. The inlet temperature and formation pressure are measured at the inlet; the specific values ​​need to be determined based on the actual formation block.

[0061] By setting up a first port and a second port for reverse pressure drive operation, reverse pressure drive means: injecting CO2 through the inlet end and injecting fracturing fluid through the outlet end.

[0062] The nuclear magnetic resonance curve is a curve obtained through a nuclear magnetic resonance device, with the horizontal axis representing relaxation time and the vertical axis representing signal intensity.

[0063] Crude oil refers to experimental crude oil, which is crude oil prepared in the laboratory under experimental conditions based on actual geological formations.

[0064] Pre-injection of crude oil into experimental cores refers to the following steps: cutting and washing the experimental core, drying it, weighing it, measuring its porosity and permeability, determining whether the experimental core is a shale core or a tight oil reservoir core, then using a vacuum testing device to evacuate the experimental core, and finally injecting crude oil into the experimental core through the inlet end so that the outlet end can stably output liquid.

[0065] The preset volume of fracturing fluid satisfies:

[0066]

[0067] Among them, v lab This refers to converting the on-site fracturing fluid displacement into the indoor experimental displacement, generally referring to the indoor experimental fracturing fluid injection displacement, Q.field For on-site construction displacement, B p N represents the area of ​​a single orifice in the reverse pressure drive system. p This refers to the number of firing ports on site.

[0068] The experimental core was placed in a pre-set container (i.e., a core holder), and crude oil was injected into the core from the inlet end until oil flowed steadily from the outlet end. Then, the injection of crude oil was stopped, and the core containing the injected crude oil was scanned to obtain the first nuclear magnetic resonance curve. V was then injected from the outlet end... lab Volume of fracturing fluid.

[0069] S102. Based on preset environmental conditions, the experimental core in the preset container is subjected to well-sealing treatment;

[0070] The preset environmental conditions refer to the formation temperature and pressure, and the well simmering time meets the preset values. The specific values ​​of formation temperature and pressure need to be determined based on the actual formation block.

[0071] Well-sealing treatment refers to a technology that uses multiple mechanisms, such as fracturing fluid and percolation, to increase shale oil production.

[0072] The well-sealing time is satisfied:

[0073]

[0074] Among them, t lab The term refers to the well-soaking time, where C is the core property parameter, specifically the Young's modulus of the experimental rock sample, μ. m The viscosity of the fluid used in the experimental core, i.e., the viscosity of the fracturing fluid, where r is the core radius and Q is the core radius. lab The experimental core flow rate is the velocity of the fluid (fracturing fluid) passing through a certain cross section of the core. cosθ is the contact angle after the experiment, i.e., the contact angle between the experimental crude oil and the surface of the experimental core. t field This refers to the time required for the well to be sealed on-site.

[0075] The temperature in the preset container (i.e., the core holder) is adjusted to the formation temperature and pressure, and t is performed. lab Prolonged well simmering treatment.

[0076] S103. Based on the preset CO2 injection stage configuration information, CO2 is injected into the experimental core from the preset second port to obtain the second nuclear magnetic resonance curve; wherein, the second nuclear magnetic resonance curve characterizes the relationship between relaxation time and signal intensity detected from the radio frequency signal of the experimental core.

[0077] The preset CO2 injection stage configuration information includes the initial CO2 injection rate and the rate of change of injected CO2. The conventional CO2 injection rate, obtained from the oilfield, is used as the initial injection rate. This conventional rate is then reduced to serve as the initial CO2 injection rate. For example, if the conventional injection rate is 0.1 mL / min, the initial CO2 injection rate would be 0.05 mL / min. The rate of change of injected CO2 can refer to gradually increasing the injection rate over time, or gradually increasing the injection rate based on changes in the recovery rate. Alternatively, it can refer to gradually increasing the injection rate while comprehensively considering both changes in the recovery rate and changes over time.

[0078] Inject CO2 through the inlet at the initial velocity, and gradually increase the CO2 injection rate until the core saturation no longer changes, then stop injecting CO2. 2, Obtain the second nuclear magnetic resonance curve.

[0079] In this embodiment, the preset CO2 injection stage configuration information includes the initial velocity and rate of change of injected CO2. Based on the preset CO2 injection stage configuration information, CO2 is injected into the experimental core from a preset second port to obtain a second nuclear magnetic resonance curve, including:

[0080] Based on the initial velocity and the rate of velocity change, CO2 was injected into the experimental core from a pre-set second port to obtain the saturation of the experimental core; whereby the saturation characterizes the distribution of CO2 in the experimental core.

[0081] If the saturation of the experimental core does not change within the preset time period, then the second nuclear magnetic resonance curve at the current moment is obtained.

[0082] The standard injection rate of CO2 at the oilfield site is defined as the conventional injection rate. This conventional rate is then reduced to become the initial CO2 injection rate. For example, if the conventional injection rate is 0.1 mL / min, the initial CO2 injection rate would be 0.05 mL / min.

[0083] The rate of change of injection rate of CO2 can refer to adjusting the injection rate of CO2 based on the rate of change of recovery rate (i.e., the increase in recovery rate). For example, if the recovery rate is obtained at various times when CO2 is injected, and the recovery rate does not change significantly when CO2 is injected at the initial injection rate, then the injection rate of CO2 needs to be increased. Alternatively, the rate of change of injection rate of CO2 can refer to gradually increasing the injection rate of CO2 over time.

[0084] In the initial stage of CO2 injection, CO2 is injected at an initial injection rate to ensure more uniform CO2 distribution throughout the reservoir, promoting miscibility between CO2 and crude oil (meaning a single phase formed by both). In the middle stage of CO2 injection, the injection rate is gradually increased. Once CO2 distribution becomes more uniform, the injection rate is appropriately increased to push more experimental crude oil towards the production end and prevent CO2 stagnation. In the later stage, the injection rate is further increased. In the later stage of CO2 injection, residual oil is often distributed in low-permeability areas, requiring a higher driving force to push this residual oil towards the production end. When the saturation of each section of the experimental core remains constant, CO2 injection is stopped, and the second NMR curve for that moment is obtained. The initial CO2 injection rate can be 0.05 mL / min, the middle stage can be 0.1 mL / min, and the later stage can be 0.15 mL / min.

[0085] The advantage of this setup is that by combining nuclear magnetic resonance curves and variable-speed CO2 injection, precise management of the CO2 flooding process is achieved, which can significantly improve the recovery rate and CO2 storage rate of the experimental core.

[0086] In this embodiment, the rate of change of velocity characterizes the increase in the rate of CO2 injection; based on the initial velocity and the rate of change of velocity, CO2 is injected into the experimental core from a preset second port to obtain the saturation of the experimental core, including:

[0087] Based on the initial velocity, CO2 is injected into the experimental core from the preset second port;

[0088] If the injection time reaches the preset time threshold, CO2 is injected into the experimental core from the preset second port according to the rate of change of velocity, and the saturation of the experimental core is obtained in real time.

[0089] The preset time threshold refers to the moment when the CO2 injection rate changes. Specifically, it includes the moment when the CO2 injection rate changes from the initial stage to the middle stage, and the moment when the CO2 injection rate changes from the middle stage to the late stage.

[0090] The saturation of the experimental core is acquired in real time, and the decision to continue injecting CO2 is made based on the saturation of the experimental core. When the saturation of each section of the experimental core changes, CO2 injection needs to continue. When the saturation of each section of the experimental core remains unchanged, CO2 injection is stopped.

[0091] The initial injection rate can be 0.05 mL / min. During the initial CO2 injection phase, this initial rate ensures more uniform CO2 distribution throughout the reservoir, promoting miscibility between CO2 and crude oil (meaning a single phase formed by both). In the middle stage of CO2 injection, the injection rate is gradually increased. Once CO2 distribution becomes more uniform, the injection rate is appropriately increased to push more experimental crude oil towards the production end and prevent CO2 stagnation. In the later stage, the injection rate is further increased. In the later stages of CO2 injection, residual oil is often distributed in low-permeability areas, requiring a higher driving force to push this residual oil towards the production end. CO2 injection is stopped when the saturation of each section of the experimental core remains constant.

[0092] The advantage of this setup is that by combining the control of time thresholds and rate of change, as well as real-time saturation monitoring, it enables refined management of the CO2 injection process, which can significantly improve the recovery rate and CO2 storage rate.

[0093] S104. Determine the recovery rate of the experimental core based on the area under the first nuclear magnetic resonance curve and the area under the second nuclear magnetic resonance curve, and determine the burial rate of the experimental core based on the volume of injected CO2; wherein, the recovery rate represents the proportion of oil obtained from the experimental core relative to the total oil volume of the experimental core, and the burial rate represents the proportion of the core sealed by CO2.

[0094] The recovery rate of the experimental core is obtained by substituting the areas of the first and second NMR curves into a pre-defined formula for calculating the recovery rate. Similarly, the CO2 burial rate in the experimental core is obtained by substituting the injected CO2 volume into another pre-defined formula for calculating the burial rate.

[0095] In this embodiment of the application, the recovery rate of the experimental core is determined based on the area under the first nuclear magnetic resonance curve and the area under the second nuclear magnetic resonance curve, including:

[0096] Determine the area difference between the area of ​​the first NMR curve and the area of ​​the second NMR curve;

[0097] The first recovery rate of the experimental core was obtained based on the area difference and the area of ​​the second nuclear magnetic resonance curve; where the first recovery rate characterizes the recovery rate of the experimental core after CO2 injection.

[0098] The recovery rate of injected CO2 can be obtained based on the change in the signal values ​​of the nuclear magnetic resonance curves before and after CO2 injection (i.e., the area difference between the area of ​​the first nuclear magnetic resonance curve and the area of ​​the second nuclear magnetic resonance curve).

[0099] The method for obtaining the first recovery rate is as follows:

[0100]

[0101] Where R1 is the first recovery rate, A1 is the area under the curve of the first nuclear magnetic resonance curve, A2 is the area under the curve of the second nuclear magnetic resonance curve, and A1-A2 represents the area difference.

[0102] The advantage of this setup is that, based on the changes in NMR curve signal values ​​before and after CO2 injection, and through the analysis of the NMR curve area, it is possible to accurately assess and optimize the oil recovery rate after CO2 flooding, thereby improving the technical effectiveness and economic benefits in experimental and practical applications.

[0103] In this embodiment of the application, it also includes:

[0104] The permeation distance, core length, initial water saturation of the core, and water saturation of the preset second port of the experimental core were obtained after the well was shut-in treatment; among them, the permeation distance represents the distance that the fracturing fluid permeates into the experimental core.

[0105] The secondary recovery rate of the experimental core was determined based on the seepage distance, core length, initial water saturation of the core, and water saturation at the second port; the secondary recovery rate characterizes the recovery rate of the experimental core after fracturing fluid injection.

[0106] The permeation distance is the distance of the fracturing fluid's reverse permeation, which can be obtained from the experimental core saturation change curve over time. That is, the change in saturation over a predetermined time is the distance of the fracturing fluid's reverse permeation.

[0107] By substituting the permeation distance, core length, initial water saturation of the core, and water saturation of the second port into the second recovery rate formula, the recovery rate of the experimental core after fracturing fluid injection and before well shut-in treatment can be obtained.

[0108] The formula for obtaining the secondary recovery rate is:

This method not only improves the accuracy and reliability of the experiment and enhances the recovery rate, but also provides valuable guidance for actual oilfield development.

[0112] In this embodiment of the application, the burial rate of the experimental core is determined based on the injected CO2 volume, including:

[0113] Determine the volume of CO2 released from the preset first port;

[0114] The burial rate of the experimental core was determined based on the volume of injected CO2 and the volume of released CO2.

[0115] Specifically, the volume of CO2 released from the outlet (i.e., the first port) and the volume of CO2 injected from the inlet (i.e., the second port) are obtained. Substituting the volume of CO2 released from the outlet and the volume of CO2 injected from the inlet into the preset formula for obtaining the burial rate of the experimental core, the burial rate of CO2 in the experimental core can be obtained.

[0116] The preset formula for the burial rate of experimental rock cores is:

Substituting the initial oil-bearing information and the oil-bearing information of the experimental core after CO2 injection into the formula for obtaining the tertiary recovery rate, the secondary recovery rate of the experimental core after the CO2 injection process can be obtained.

[0126] The formula for obtaining the third recovery rate is:

[0127]

[0129] S o (x) is the oil saturation distribution function, which includes the oil saturation of the experimental core before CO2 injection and the oil saturation of the experimental core before CO2 injection.

[0130] The advantage of this setup is that, in CO2-assisted oil recovery experiments, by acquiring and analyzing the initial oil-bearing information of the experimental core and the oil-bearing information before CO2 injection, the tertiary recovery rate can be calculated. This process helps to comprehensively assess the reservoir's recovery status and provides a basis for optimizing oil recovery strategies.

[0149] Experimental conditions were set based on the on-site hydraulic displacement construction parameters of shale / tight oil reservoirs to simulate the reverse hydraulic displacement (fracturing fluid) injection process. After the experimental conditions were met, high-temperature and high-pressure well stagnation and seepage simulation was conducted.

Based on the field CO2 injection volume parameters, combined with the field control range, oilfield porosity, experimental core radius, experimental core length, and experimental core porosity, determine the injection volume of variable-stage CO2 injection reverse pressure drive.

[0162] (2) Based on the principle of linear velocity, the on-site CO2 injection rate is converted into the indoor core injection rate. Combining the CO2 flooding mechanism with the heterogeneity of the reservoir, the injection rate is reduced in the early stage, so that CO2 can enter the reservoir more evenly and promote the miscibility of CO2 and crude oil.

[0163] (3) Gradually increase the injection rate in the medium term. After CO2 begins to be distributed more evenly, appropriately increase the injection rate to drive more crude oil to the production end and prevent CO2 from being trapped.
