Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention belongs to the field of oil and gas field development, and particularly relates to a targeted chemical oil displacement agent, a targeted chemical oil displacement system and an application thereof. Background Technique
[0002] In the field of oil and gas field development, chemical flooding is an important means to improve the oil recovery of extra-high water cut old oilfields.
[0003] At present, chemical flooding technology has been applied on a large scale in oilfields such as Daqing, Shengli, Dagang, Liaohe, and Xinjiang. The effect of increasing oil production by reducing water cut in the field and the economic benefits are remarkable. For example, Chinese Patent Application CN 113214815A discloses a nano-microemulsion oil displacement agent, which is composed of water, oil, surfactant, isopropanol and sodium chloride; the volume ratio of oil to water is 0.8-0.9:1, and based on the total weight of oil and water, the concentration of the surfactant is 2.0-2.5 wt%, the concentration of isopropanol is 3.0-8.0 wt%, and the concentration of sodium chloride is 2.0-5.5 wt%; the surfactant is a combination of polyoxyethylene ether non-ionic surfactant (Triton X) and sulfonated saponin. The nano-microemulsion oil displacement agent of the present invention belongs to a middle-phase microemulsion, which has a small particle size, and the droplet size is about 20-50 nm. The interfacial tension with the oil and water phases can be reduced to below 1.0×10 -4 mN / m, and the oil recovery can be increased by at least 10 percentage points compared with water flooding. Chinese Patent Application CN1865392A discloses a high-efficiency compound oil displacement agent for tertiary oil recovery and its preparation method. The oil displacement agent is prepared by compounding petroleum sulfonate as the main surfactant with other non-ionic surfactants, anionic surfactants, organic solvents and sodium chloride. Compared with the prior art, the high-efficiency compound oil displacement agent of the present invention has the characteristics of effectively reducing the interfacial tension between oil and water, having good compatibility with high salinity water, and the ability to reduce the interfacial tension is not affected by salinity. The binary oil displacement system formed with polymer can increase the oil recovery by more than 20%.
[0004] One of the main mechanisms of chemical flooding is to inject a high-viscosity polymer or a composite system of polymer and surfactant into the formation to reduce the water-oil mobility ratio, expand the swept volume, improve the oil washing efficiency, and ultimately improve the oil recovery.
[0005] The two most commonly used technologies in chemical flooding on-site are polymer flooding technology and binary composite flooding technology. In both technologies, polymers are needed to expand the swept volume of the system in the formation. However, the polymers currently used on-site are mainly dry powder partial hydrolysis polyacrylamide. Although dry powder partial hydrolysis polyacrylamide has the advantages of high active ingredient, easy packaging and transportation, and long shelf life, dry powder partial hydrolysis polyacrylamide needs to completely dissolve the polymer in the ground injection process and then inject it into the formation. Therefore, the following problems exist in the on-site application process:
[0006] (1) The dissolution and aging time of conventional dry powder partially hydrolyzed polyacrylamide is long, and the surface injection process is complex. It takes more than 2 hours for conventional dry powder polymers to be completely dissolved, which requires three stages: water absorption and swelling, dispersion and dissolution, and aging. The whole process requires corresponding dispersion, dissolution, aging and other equipment. Therefore, the surface process is long, the equipment occupies a large area, and the surface investment is large.
[0007] (2) After the conventional dry powder polymer is dissolved, due to its large molecular weight and long molecular chain, it is not shear-resistant. If the polymer solution is directly injected into the formation through the water injection string, due to the extremely large flow rate of the water nozzle in the water injection string, the shear force on the polymer is large, which will cause an 80-90% loss of the polymer viscosity before entering the formation, and it is impossible to achieve good enhanced oil recovery effect. Therefore, before starting polymer injection in all current chemical flooding projects, it is necessary to replace the water injection string with a polymer injection string. Since most of the current polymer injection strings are two-stage stratified injection of inner and outer pipes and cannot achieve multi-stage stratified fine polymer injection like water injection, when the permeability difference between different formations is large, the polymer will still channel along the high-permeability layer, greatly affecting the chemical flooding effect.
[0008] For the above reasons, the present invention provides a targeted chemical flooding agent and a targeted chemical flooding system for tertiary oil recovery, which can achieve on-site online injection and can use the existing water injection string to achieve multi-stage stratified fine polymer injection. Summary of the Invention
[0009] Object of the Invention: Aiming at the deficiencies in the current conventional chemical flooding system, such as the long dissolution and aging time of polymers, the complex surface injection process, and the fact that after the polymer is dissolved, due to its large molecular weight and long molecular chain, it is not shear-resistant and cannot use the existing water injection string for multi-stage stratified fine polymer injection, the present invention provides a targeted chemical flooding agent, a targeted chemical flooding system and their applications. The present invention can achieve on-site online injection and can use the existing water injection string to achieve multi-stage stratified fine polymer injection.

[0019] Furthermore, the non-ionic emulsifier is sorbitan monooleate or polysorbate.
[0020] Furthermore, the surfactant is composed of a combined non-ionic and anionic surfactant and a betaine surfactant, where:
[0021] The mass ratio of the combined non-ionic and anionic surfactant to the betaine surfactant is (2 to 3):1. The interfacial tension of the targeted chemical flooding system formed by the surfactant and the microcapsule-targeted viscosity-increasing polymer reaches 10 -3 mN / m.
[0022] Furthermore, the combined non-ionic and anionic surfactant is fatty alcohol polyoxyethylene ether carboxylate or fatty alcohol polyoxyethylene ether sulfonate.

[0142] Verification and Characterization
[0143] Example 7
[0144] This example is mainly used to analyze the microscopic morphology of the targeted chemical flooding system in Example 1 and compare it with the conventional binary flooding system.
[0145] Take 1 drop of the targeted chemical flooding system in Example 1, place it on a mica sheet, dry it with nitrogen, and then use a scanning electron microscope to characterize the morphology. At the same time, take a conventional binary flooding system with the same concentration as the targeted chemical flooding system in Example 1, treat it in the same way, and then use a scanning electron microscope to characterize the morphology. The characterization results are as Figure 1a shown.
[0146] It can be seen from the characterization results that since the microcapsules encapsulate the polymer, obvious spherical microcapsules can be seen in the targeted chemical flooding system, and the size of the microcapsules is 400-600 nm( Figure 1a shown), and since the polymer macromolecular chains in the aqueous solution of the conventional binary flooding system are completely dissolved in water, the structure formed presents an obvious network structure (as Figure 1b shown).
[0147] Example 8
[0148] This example is mainly used to compare the viscosities of the targeted chemical flooding system and the conventional binary flooding system in Example 1 with the thermal aging time.
[0149] Take 200 g of the targeted chemical enhanced oil recovery system in Example 1. After deoxygenating with nitrogen, it is dispensed into ampoules, sealed, and placed in an oven at 75 °C. Samples are taken at different times to test the change in the viscosity of the targeted chemical enhanced oil recovery system with aging time.
[0150] Another 200 g of the conventional binary enhanced oil recovery system is taken. The treatment method is the same as that of the targeted chemical enhanced oil recovery system. The change in the viscosity of the conventional binary enhanced oil recovery system with aging time is tested and compared with that of the targeted chemical enhanced oil recovery system. The test comparison results are as Figure 2 shown.
[0151] From Figure 2 the test results, it can be seen that since the targeted chemical enhanced oil recovery system needs to be slowly released in the high-temperature reservoir environment, the initial viscosity of the system is relatively low, and the polymer is completely encapsulated in the microcapsules. Therefore, it has good shear resistance when the system passes through the perforations. As the aging time at the formation temperature extends, the viscosity is gradually released. Combined with the surfactant contained, it plays a role in expanding the swept area and improving the oil washing efficiency in the deep formation. Under the initial conditions, since the polymer in the conventional binary enhanced oil recovery system is completely dissolved, it has a relatively high initial viscosity. However, as the thermal aging time extends, the polymer slowly undergoes thermal degradation and the viscosity slowly decreases. Eventually, after 60 days of thermal aging, the targeted chemical enhanced oil recovery system has a higher viscosity than the conventional binary enhanced oil recovery system. Therefore, the targeted chemical enhanced oil recovery system has better long-term thermal stability and stronger deep reservoir oil displacement ability under reservoir conditions.
[0152] Example 9
[0153] This example is mainly used for comparing the strong shear resistance of the targeted chemical enhanced oil recovery system and the conventional binary enhanced oil recovery system in Example 1.
[0154] Take 200 g of the targeted chemical enhanced oil recovery system in Example 1 and add it to a Waring blender. Start the Waring blender and shear at a high speed of 15,000 r / min for 2 minutes. Take the solution after high-speed shearing and the unsheared targeted chemical enhanced oil recovery system. After deoxygenating with nitrogen, they are dispensed into ampoules, sealed, and placed in an oven at 75 °C. After 5 days of thermal aging to completely release the microcapsule polymer, measure the viscosity of the solution after complete release of the targeted chemical enhanced oil recovery system after high-speed shearing and compare it with the viscosity after complete release of the unsheared targeted chemical enhanced oil recovery system to obtain the viscosity retention rate of the targeted chemical enhanced oil recovery system after high-speed shearing.
[0155] Another 200 g of the conventional binary enhanced oil recovery system is taken and added to a Waring blender. Shear at a high speed of 15,000 r / min for 2 minutes. Test the viscosity of the solution after shearing and compare it with the viscosity of the unsheared binary system solution to obtain the viscosity retention rate of the conventional binary system after high-speed shearing. The test comparison results are as Figure 3 shown.
[0156] It can be seen from the test results that during the high-speed shearing process of the targeted chemical flooding system by the Waring blender, since the polymer is included in the microcapsules, the microcapsules have a strong protective effect on the polymer. After high-temperature release, compared with the non-sheared targeted chemical flooding system, the viscosity retention rate reaches 99.5%. For the conventional binary system, since the molecular chains are exposed after complete dissolution, its resistance to the strong shearing action of the Waring blender is poor, and the viscosity retention rate is only 6.9% after high-speed shearing. Therefore, the targeted chemical flooding system has the ability to resist strong shearing.
[0157] Example 10
[0158] This example is mainly used to analyze the comparison of the oil displacement effects of the targeted chemical flooding system and the conventional binary flooding system after the strong shearing of the flooding system by simulating the water nozzle of the injection string with the Waring blender in the present invention.
[0159] Take a sandstone core with a size of 2.5 cm × 30 cm and a permeability of 1500×10 -3 μm 2 After water flooding until the water cut reaches 95%, inject the solution after the complete release of the high-speed sheared targeted chemical flooding system in Example 9 and the solution after the high-speed shearing of the conventional binary flooding system respectively. The injection solution slug size is 0.5 PV, and then subsequent water flooding is carried out until the water cut is above 98% until the oil displacement experiment ends, to obtain the enhanced oil recovery ability of the two systems after high-speed shearing by simulating the water nozzle of the injection string. The test comparison results are as Figure 4a and Figure 4b shown.
[0160] It can be seen from the comparison of the enhanced oil recovery in Table 1 that after water flooding, the high-speed sheared targeted chemical flooding system and the conventional binary flooding system are injected respectively. Since the targeted chemical flooding system has strong shear resistance, the flooded system can still maintain a high viscosity after the complete shell-breaking release after shearing. Finally, the enhanced oil recovery rate of the injected high-speed sheared targeted chemical flooding system reaches 31.4%, while the conventional binary flooding system has poor shear resistance and large viscosity loss after high-speed shearing. Finally, the enhanced oil recovery rate of the injected conventional binary flooding system after water flooding is only 2.8%. Therefore, only the targeted chemical flooding system can resist the strong shearing of the injection string water nozzle, realize the multi-stage fine distribution injection of the chemical flooding injection string, and thus achieve a greater increase in the crude oil recovery rate.
