Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the field of CCUS oil and gas fields, and in particular to a CO2 flooding simulation device and method for a multi-layer ultra-low permeability oil and gas reservoir containing dynamic fractures. Background Art

[0002] Ultra-low permeability reservoirs have low permeability, strong heterogeneity, and relatively developed fractures, which are significantly different from other geological storage bodies in CCUS. They show different characteristics during the injection of carbon dioxide for burial. The study of dynamic fractures is an important topic for understanding the seepage law, distribution characteristics, and storage effect of carbon dioxide in the formation. These fractures are controlled by the current geostress field. With the increase of injection volume and the increase of bottom hole pressure, they continue to extend toward the production well until they are connected with the pressure fractures of the production well. These new and effective fractures are called dynamic fractures.

[0003] Dynamic fractures affect the design of the coordinated CO2 flooding scheme at the bottom surface: (1) There are almost no fractures in the early stage of gas injection, and fractures are difficult to identify and determine parameters, which affects the early well network deployment and the formulation of gas injection technology policies. (2) The dynamic changes of fractures cause the migration of the dominant flow layer segment, which enhances the heterogeneity of the oil layer. (3) The existence of dynamic fractures makes the oil layer production more complicated and reduces the degree of production. In short, CO2 has strong fluidity, and the existence of dynamic fractures will profoundly affect the flow law and distribution characteristics of injected CO2. Understanding and studying the influence of dynamic fractures is an important prerequisite for optimizing engineering parameters and enhancing the effect of CO2 flooding.

[0004] At present, the research on dynamic fractures mainly includes numerical simulation methods and physical methods. Numerical simulation methods can study the dynamic fracture problem of reservoirs on a three-dimensional scale by establishing a virtual model, such as a characterization method for dynamic fractures in low permeability reservoirs. Due to the invisibility of the reservoir, the prediction results of numerical simulation cannot be directly verified. Therefore, it is necessary to use experimental methods to conduct a verifiable direct study on the characteristics of dynamic fractures. Another example is a physical testing device for dynamic fractures in low permeability reservoirs, which realizes the study of the causes of dynamic fractures based on one-dimensional flow of cores. And a dynamic fracture determination method and device for a pore roar channel network model in displacement simulation can study the impact of dynamic fractures on development on a small-scale two-dimensional plane. However, these studies cannot directly study the impact of dynamic fractures on reservoir development on a three-dimensional scale. On the other hand, many technologies related to three-dimensional physical simulation methods do not consider the problem of dynamic fractures, such as a three-dimensional physical simulation experimental device and a method for simulating the development of tight oil reservoirs, and a three-dimensional physical simulation system for periodic injection and production of gas storage reservoirs. Summary of the invention

[0005] CCUS carbon dioxide geological storage is a long-term process. Dynamic fractures are an important factor that cannot be ignored in the process of gas injection and long-term storage. They have an important impact on the design of gas injection parameters and pressure control levels. However, there is currently a lack of methods to directly study and verify dynamic fractures on a three-dimensional reservoir scale. The present invention designs simulation components of dynamic fractures, designs the distribution direction, distribution quantity and starting pressure of dynamic fracture simulation components according to the fracture description parameters of oil and gas reservoir engineering, and combines the production and experimental methods of indoor ultra-low permeability three-dimensional physical model devices to achieve a directly verifiable study of the influence of dynamic fractures.

The cement, gypsum, and quartz sand bonding mass ratio is 1:1:3. The artificial high-permeability core column 4 after solidification and cutting is used to manufacture a dynamic fracture simulation component and is loaded into the dynamic fracture simulation component groove reserved in the reservoir. Then, the mixture of cement and gypsum is poured and fixed; wherein, the cement and gypsum mass ratio is 1:1;

[0110] Embodiment 1

[0111] The present invention designs a CO2 flooding simulation device for multi-layer ultra-low permeability oil and gas reservoirs with dynamic fractures. The device is based on carbon dioxide flooding and simulates the recovery rate and storage volume of multi-reservoir (3-layer, 4-layer, 5-layer) oil and gas reservoirs under dynamic fracture conditions. This embodiment takes the simulation experiment of 3 reservoirs as an example, and the details are as follows:

[0112] The size of the model produced in the embodiment is 50*50*10 cm in length (L)*width (D)*height (H). Two groups of physical models are used in the embodiment, one group without dynamic cracks and one group with dynamic cracks.

[0113] The multi-layer CO2 flooding simulation device designed by the present invention is as follows: Figure 1 As shown, it mainly includes: 2 cap layers, 3 reservoir layers, 2 interlayers, 3 dynamic fracture devices, 3 flow control devices and 3 flow meter devices;

[0114] 1. Separately make cap layer, reservoir layer and interlayer to form a multi-reservoir physical model.

[0115] The reservoir is made of cement, gypsum, and quartz sand (40-80 mesh) in a certain mass ratio, with a mass ratio of 1:1:2 for reservoir I, 1:1:3 for reservoir II, and 1:1:4 for reservoir III. Three cylindrical grooves of φ5×10cm are reserved, which can also be adjusted to other sizes as needed, ranging from φ5 to 10cm and 10 to 50cm in length. The size is 1-2cm larger than the entire dynamic fracture simulation device, so that there is remaining casting space after the subsequent device is placed. At the same time, three corresponding holes are punched at both ends of the reservoir, with a hole diameter of 3 to 10cm. The holes are punched to facilitate the placement of the flow metering device and the flow control device. The cover layer is made of acrylic board, and the interlayer is made of cement and gypsum (bonding mass ratio of 1:1).

After being cured and cut into the required specifications of the artificial high-permeability core column 4, it is installed in the dynamic crack simulation component. First, the artificial high-permeability core column 4 is coated with a bonding adhesive around it and placed in the reserved position in one half of the fan-shaped column of the shell. After the fixing adhesive is firmly bonded, the outer connection between the spring component 3 and the two ends of the artificial high-permeability core column 4 is welded and fixed, and the sealing plate 2 is placed. The sealing plate 2 has a connection with the spring component 3 for fixing with a nut. When installing, you only need to tighten the nut at the connection, and the installation of the sealing plate 2 is completed. After that, it should just be stuck in the inner supporting points at both ends of the shell 6 to form a sealed space inside. Finally, the filter plate 1 is installed on the corresponding outer supporting points of the shell 6, and the other half of the shell is merged with the part that has been assembled. The other half of the artificial high-permeability core column 4 that is not coated with bonding glue is coated with fixing glue, and the contact parts of the two semi-fan-shaped columns are glued together with fixing glue. After they are firmly glued, the dynamic fracture simulation component is assembled and placed in the dynamic fracture groove reserved in the reservoir. Then, it is cast and fixed with a mixture of cement and gypsum to complete the combination between the dynamic fracture simulation component and the reservoir to form a dynamic fracture simulation device.

The CO2 flooding simulation device for multi-layer ultra-low permeability oil and gas reservoirs containing dynamic fractures according to claim 4 is characterized in that: The working principle of the dynamic fracture simulation device is as follows: the dynamic fracture simulation device is pre-buried in the reserved groove when the reservoir is made. The dynamic fracture simulation reservoir contains the buried characteristics of dynamic fractures. When the pressure inside and outside the dynamic fracture simulation device is balanced, the spring component is in the original state. It can be known from Hooke's law that: F=-kx (1) In the above formula: k – spring coefficient; X——stretched or compressed length, cm; P——spring pressure, N / mm; F——tensile force or compressive force on the spring, N; δ——tensile or compressive amount, mm; The dynamic crack simulation component in the original state is in a sealed state. When there is a pressure difference at both ends of the spring and the pressure is greater than the calculated spring pressure P, the left sealing baffle moves to the right, the compression spring shrinks to the right, the left channel opens, and the fluid passes through the artificial high-permeability core column, simulating the injection of fluid into the crack. Under the action of pressure, the right spring stretches to the right, the right sealing baffle moves to the right, and the right channel opens.
