Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of oilfield development and enhanced recovery, and particularly relates to a salt-resistant and calcium-resistant imbibition-displacement system suitable for low-permeability and tight oil reservoirs and a preparation method thereof. Background Art

[0002] Low-permeability, tight oil reservoirs, as a key component of unconventional oil and gas resources, occupy a crucial position in the global energy mix. However, these reservoirs are generally characterized by complex pore structures, extremely low permeability, and insufficient natural energy. Conventional waterflooding is ineffective, necessitating an urgent need for efficient development technologies. Surfactant flooding, a key chemical flooding technology, holds broad application prospects in enhanced oil recovery. Surfactants effectively improve oil washing efficiency and sweep coefficient by reducing oil-water interfacial tension, altering rock wettability, and emulsifying crude oil, thereby significantly enhancing oil recovery. Furthermore, imbibition, as a key oil recovery mechanism, exhibits unique advantages in the development of low-permeability, tight oil reservoirs. Imbibition systems, through the synergistic effects of capillary forces and interfacial tension, spontaneously displace crude oil from tiny pores, making them particularly suitable for water-wet, low-permeability, tight oil reservoirs. However, due to the high salinity (above 100,000 mg / L) and high divalent calcium and magnesium ion contents (above 10,000 mg / L) of formation water, conventional imbibition and flooding systems face numerous challenges in their application. The presence of high mineralization and divalent calcium and magnesium ions can easily lead to emulsification, precipitation and adsorption failure of imbibition and oil displacement agents, significantly reducing the efficiency of imbibition and oil displacement, and even causing formation damage and poor adaptability.

[0003] Therefore, a salt-resistant and calcium-resistant imbibition-displacement system suitable for low-permeability tight oil reservoirs is developed to overcome the limitations of complex formation conditions, improve the crude oil recovery rate of low-permeability tight oil reservoirs, and provide technical support for the efficient development of low-permeability tight oil reservoirs.

The reaction is carried out at a constant temperature for 18 hours. During the reaction, the pH of the system is controlled to 8-9 using an aqueous NaOH solution.

Excess glycine and the product sodium chloride can be dissolved and removed by filtration by adding water. Therefore, deionized water is added, stirred, and then filtered to remove the filtrate. The operation is repeated until the pH of the filtrate is 5-6 and no chloride ions are present. The product is then recrystallized from petroleum ether three times to obtain pure alkyl glycine.

[0047] (b4) The pure alkylglycine was vacuum dried at 45°C for 1.5 hours, dissolved in ethanol, and an ethanolic solution of NaOH was slowly added thereto at 60°C, wherein the molar amount of NaOH in the ethanolic solution of alkylglycine and NaOH was equal.

The dual-hydrophilic headgroup dual-hydrophobic chain surfactant (main agent A), the dual-hydrophilic headgroup single-hydrophobic chain surfactant (main agent B), and the simulated formation water were mixed and stirred uniformly to obtain a salt-tolerant and calcium-resistant imbibition-displacement system, which was then subjected to performance testing.

[0051] 1. Oil-water interfacial tension test

[0052] The oil-water interfacial tension of the system was measured using a TX-500C interfacial tension meter at a reservoir temperature of 50°C. The salinity, calcium ion content, system composition, and interfacial tension results of the simulated formation water are shown in Table 1.

[0053] Table 1 Oil-water interfacial tension of different salt-tolerant and calcium-resistant imbibition-displacement systems

[0054]

The results are shown in Table 2.

[0058] Table 2 Wettability and static dialysis effect

[0059]

[0060] As shown in Table 2, both water and the salt- and calcium-resistant imbibition-displacement system described herein can displace oil through imbibition, but the salt- and calcium-resistant imbibition-displacement system consistently outperforms water in its imbibition efficiency. The salt- and calcium-resistant imbibition-displacement system improves imbibition efficiency by adsorbing on the rock surface and the oil-water interface, altering rock wettability and enhancing hydrophilicity. This reduces interfacial tension, promotes oil droplet separation, strengthens capillary forces, and optimizes oil-water distribution.

[0061] 3. Core dynamic oil displacement efficiency test

[0062] Dynamic core flooding experiments were conducted to test the oil displacement effect of the salt-tolerant and calcium-resistant imbibition-displacement system under simulated reservoir temperature of 50°C and reservoir pressure of 9 MPa, in a simulated formation water environment with a high salinity of 120,000 mg / L and a divalent calcium ion content of 20,000 mg / L.
