Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of oil and gas field exploitation, and in particular relates to a low-permeability reservoir middle-phase microemulsion oil displacement agent and application thereof. Background Art

[0002] my country's low-permeability oil reservoirs are rich in reserves and have become the main battlefield for oil development. Compared with medium and high permeability oil reservoirs, low-permeability oil reservoirs have more complex reservoir properties and more prominent development contradictions. The rock properties are poor, the pore throats are small, and there is a serious Jamin effect. These problems all lead to low water injection recovery rates in low-permeability oil fields, low initial production capacity, and rapid production decline. After water flooding, a large amount of crude oil is still retained underground and cannot be effectively developed. The overall development level of low-permeability oil reservoirs is low, and the calibrated recovery rate is below 20%.

[0003] At present, a considerable number of low permeability reservoirs have entered the high water content or even ultra-high water content stage at low recovery, with serious invalid circulation, and it is urgent to develop replacement technologies to significantly improve the recovery rate. Low permeability reservoirs usually have strong microscopic heterogeneity and uneven pore distribution, which affects the oil recovery efficiency and sweep efficiency of the oil recovery system. At present, the main technologies for improving the recovery rate of low permeability reservoirs include: molecular membrane technology, imbibition oil recovery technology, nano-injection technology, surfactant flooding technology, foam flooding technology, microsphere flooding and other technologies.

[0004] CN112126009A discloses a polyacrylamide microsphere, a nanoemulsion for low permeability oil reservoir adjustment and flooding, and a preparation method and application thereof. The microsphere is a copolymer of acrylamide, 2-acrylamide-2-methylpropanesulfonic acid and N,N-methylenebisacrylamide, and the average particle size of the microsphere is 40-120nm. The emulsion comprises the polyacrylamide microsphere and white oil. The polyacrylamide microsphere is a nano-scale microsphere with good expansion performance and can be used for low permeability oil reservoir adjustment and flooding. The emulsion uses white oil as the oil phase and adds tetrasodium ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid as a dispersant to improve the dispersion uniformity of the polyacrylamide emulsion. The obtained nanoemulsion has a small particle size, good fluidity, and good expansion performance. It can continuously migrate and block the pores in the low permeability oil reservoir, thereby increasing the volume of injected water swept and improving the recovery rate of the low permeability oil reservoir.

[0005] CN107603582A discloses a high-efficiency foaming agent for air foam flooding, which is mixed by the following components by mass percentage: polyether segment-containing betaine amphoteric surfactant, alkylamide propyl dimethyl amine oxide, cationic alkyl polysaccharide, thickening foam stabilizer, sodium chloride, alkyl sodium sulfate, N-(2-pyridyl) alcohol ether methylene amide, and the balance is water. The foaming agent of the invention has strong comprehensive foam performance, corrosion resistance, high mineralization resistance and oil resistance. In the field of oil field production, it can meet the performance requirements of foam flooding of low permeability reservoirs.

[0006] However, although the above-mentioned technologies have improved the injection capacity and development effect of low permeability reservoirs to a certain extent, and have a certain ability to reduce water and increase oil production, they cannot fundamentally solve the problems of expanding the swept volume and improving the oil recovery efficiency of low permeability reservoirs. Therefore, it is urgent to develop a new technology for improving the recovery rate suitable for low permeability reservoirs. Summary of the invention
