Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of oil development, and particularly relates to a method for improving the recovery rate of low-permeability oil reservoirs. Background Art
[0002] In the middle and late stages of oilfield development, long-term water injection exacerbates the heterogeneity of the reservoir, and the phenomenon of water channeling intensifies, significantly reducing the development effect.
[0003] Conventional oil reservoirs can adjust the water injection profile by injecting polymer systems and other systems to improve the swept volume of water flooding, thereby further improving the recovery rate. However, due to the poor physical properties of the reservoir, low-permeability oil reservoirs (permeability range of 0.1 - 50 mD) have contradictions such as high initial pressure of crude oil and high water injection pressure during the development process, and problems such as low water flooding efficiency, slow oil production rate, and low recovery degree. After the water flooding of such low-permeability oil reservoirs reaches a high water cut, due to the large molecular weight of conventional plugging and profile control systems such as polymer gels, they are prone to filtration blockage near the injection wells, with high injection pressure and unable to effectively enter the deep part of the oil reservoir for profile adjustment.
[0004] In response to the above problems, in recent years, major oilfields and research institutes have developed a series of enhanced oil recovery systems and technologies for low-permeability oil reservoirs by means of chemical synthesis, modification, and compounding. Among them, in the article "Research Progress on the Application Status of Profile Control and Displacement Agents in Low-Permeability Oil Reservoirs", the author reviewed the research progress of profile control and displacement systems for low-permeability oil reservoirs in recent years. The article elaborated in detail on the advantages and disadvantages of existing gel-based, gel-like, particle-based, and various composite profile control and displacement systems and corresponding processes, and pointed out that with the increasing development difficulty of low-permeability oil reservoirs, the existing systems and technologies cannot meet the requirements of significantly improving the recovery rate in the middle and late stages of low-permeability oil reservoir development, and new profile control and displacement systems and supporting process technologies need to be designed.
[0005] Chinese Patent CN115044356B discloses a profile control and displacement agent applicable to high-temperature and high-salt oil reservoirs and its preparation method, which includes, by weight percentage: 1% - 8% of a precipitation main agent, 10% - 30% of a first precipitation control agent, 0.1% - 2.0% of a second precipitation control agent, and the balance of liquid preparation water; wherein, the precipitation main agent is soluble silicate. The present invention also provides a preparation method of the profile control and displacement agent, including: adding the first precipitation control agent to the liquid preparation water and mixing evenly to obtain a first solution; adding the second precipitation control agent to the first solution and mixing evenly to obtain a second solution; adding the precipitation main agent to the second solution and mixing evenly to obtain the profile control and displacement agent. However, this patented technology synthesizes a low-viscosity profile control and displacement agent through chemical means, which only solves the problem of deep injection in medium and low-permeability oil reservoirs. However, the synthetic raw materials are chemical raw materials, which pollute the environment and have high synthesis costs, not meeting the current low-carbon and environmental protection concept of oilfield development.
[0006] Chinese Patent CN114539470B discloses an acrylamide-based functional polymer, its preparation method and application. The acrylamide-based functional polymer includes a structural unit A having the structure shown in formula (1), a structural unit B having the structure shown in formula (2), and a structural unit C having the structure shown in formula (3). However, the patent discloses a low-permeability reservoir profile control and flooding system centered on a modified polymer. This polymer has a high viscosity and is prone to near-wellbore plugging after injection, causing damage to the formation. Moreover, the industrial production cost is high after polymer modification, making it impossible to be widely applied in the field.
[0007] Chinese Patent CN109679623B discloses a displacement oil composition containing a sulfobetaine surfactant, its preparation method and application. The present invention adopts a displacement oil composition including a betaine-type amphoteric surfactant and an inorganic salt. Among them, the structure of the betaine-type amphoteric surfactant is shown in formula (I), R1 is selected from any one of C6-C29 alkyl and alkenyl, R3 and R4 are selected from any one of C1-C12 alkylene and hydroxy-substituted alkylene, m + n = 0-100, x + y = 0-100; the molar ratio of the betaine-type amphoteric surfactant to the inorganic salt is 1:0.01-1:100. This technical solution preferably solves this technical problem and can be used in the oil displacement production of oilfields. The medium-low permeability oil displacement system developed by this patent solves the injection problem, but it cannot solve the deep profile control problem in the later stage of medium-low permeability reservoir development. The injection system channels along the main flow path and cannot effectively contact the remaining oil.
[0008] Chinese Patent CN114181688B discloses a surfactant combination displacement oil system suitable for low-permeability reservoirs in multiple slugs and its preparation method. This system consists of a low-viscosity ultra-low interfacial tension surfactant displacement slug and a high-viscosity ultra-low interfacial tension surfactant profile control agent slug. However, the low-permeability reservoir profile control system developed by this patent consists of two systems. Among them, the high-viscosity profile control system also has the problem of high injection pressure in low-permeability reservoirs and is prone to near-wellbore plugging after long-term injection, making it impossible to effectively solve the problem of difficult injection and production in low-permeability reservoirs.
[0009] In addition, there are also a large number of low-permeability enhanced oil recovery systems and technologies using chemical synthesis and compounding as means. These systems and technologies also face problems such as complex processes, single functions and environmental protection, and are limited in on-site transformation.
[0010] Microbial enhanced oil recovery technology uses the growth and metabolism of microorganisms and the metabolites they produce to interact with crude oil and reservoirs to improve oil recovery. The preparation of the microbial enhanced oil recovery system mainly relies on waste materials from industries such as agriculture and food, with low technical costs. At the same time, microorganisms can grow and metabolize in-situ in the formation, and the metabolites produced will gradually degrade in the formation without causing environmental pollution and formation damage. Traditional microbial enhanced oil recovery technology has certain limitations when applied to medium and low permeability oil reservoirs. For example, Chinese patent application CN115895931A discloses a method for microbial enhanced oil recovery in medium and low permeability oil reservoirs, including the following steps: (1) screening of target oil reservoirs; (2) screening of high-protein activator systems for protease-producing microorganisms; (3) screening of activator systems for amine-producing microorganisms; (4) screening of oil-activated activator systems for surfactant-producing microorganisms; (5) determining the field injection process using physical simulation enhanced oil recovery experiments; (6) field tests and effect evaluation. This patent application uses the principle of endogenous microbial enhanced oil recovery technology to carry out microbial enhanced oil recovery in medium and low permeability oil reservoirs. Although the process is simple and the cost is low, it ignores the problem of strong heterogeneity in the middle and late stages of the development of medium and low permeability oil reservoirs. The microbial activation system mainly enters the preferential channels and cannot effectively mobilize the remaining oil that has not been produced by water flooding. In addition, the activator injected by the endogenous microbial enhanced oil recovery technology will preferentially enter the channeling channels with the injected water, and the activated microorganisms cannot contact the preferential remaining oil in the areas not swept by water flooding, resulting in limited improvement in oil recovery. During the implementation of exogenous microbial enhanced oil recovery technology, due to the certain molecular size of commonly used oil-producing strains (cell length 1-5 μm), they cannot migrate deep into low permeability oil reservoirs (throat radius < 1 μm). In addition, microbial enhanced oil recovery technology also has the defect of low oil washing efficiency. Summary of the Invention
[0011] Object of the Invention: Aiming at the deficiencies of the above-mentioned existing technologies, the present invention provides a method for improving the oil recovery of low permeability oil reservoirs, which can simultaneously solve the problems of deep profile control and efficient oil washing in low permeability oil reservoirs. The enhanced oil recovery system of the present invention includes a spore profile control system and a biosurfactant oil washing system; the injection process is multi-round multi-slug injection. By injecting the spore profile control system through the front slug, small-sized spores preferentially enter the preferential channels deep in the oil reservoir. Then, under the action of the activated activator, the spores are activated and grow into normal-sized bacilli to block the preferential channels. The subsequent slug injection of the biosurfactant oil washing slug without cells can enter the non-mainstream channels and contact the preferential remaining oil. Through multi-round injection, the oil recovery is greatly improved.

[0038] Even further, the spore-forming fermentation broth of the Bacillus bacteria is obtained by fermenting Bacillus bacteria at 30 - 75°C for 48 - 96 hours in the spore-forming fermentation medium of the corresponding Bacillus bacteria, where:

If the spore formation rate reaches more than 80%, it is a qualified fermentation broth and can be used for freezing to prepare Bacillus spore powder.
[0045] Even further, the spore activation activator is composed of glucose, alanine, dipotassium hydrogen phosphate, CaCl 2 and their mass ratio is (0.1 - 0.3) : (0.02 - 0.05) : (0.02 - 0.05) : (0.01 - 0.05).
[0046] Further, the oil washing system in step (21) is composed of a cell-free biosurfactant fermentation broth prepared by fermenting Pseudomonas aeruginosa and the formation water of the target reservoir, where:

[0048] Even further, the preparation steps of the oil washing system in step (21) are as follows:
[0049] Inoculate Pseudomonas aeruginosa into the Pseudomonas aeruginosa fermentation medium, and then ferment at 37°C for 72 - 96 hours to obtain the fermented bacterial liquid, and then heat it to not less than 100°C and keep it for 20 - 30 minutes to lyse the bacterial cells, and then a cell-free biosurfactant fermentation broth is obtained, where:
[0050] The inoculation amount of the Pseudomonas aeruginosa is 2 - 5%.
[0051] Furthermore, the Pseudomonas aeruginosa fermentation medium consists of the following components in mass percentage: 3 - 5% glycerol, 0.8 - 1.2% sodium nitrate, 0.4 - 0.6% dipotassium hydrogen phosphate, 0.4 - 0.6% potassium dihydrogen phosphate, 0.1 - 0.2% NaCl, 0.02 - 0.05% MgSO 4 , 0.01 - 0.03% CaCl 2 , with the balance being water and the pH value being 8.0.
[0052] Furthermore, in step (22), the injection volume of each slug profile control system and oil washing system is determined by the following formula:
[0053] V = β × k / λ × H
[0054] Where: V—the correlation coefficient value of the injection volume of each slug injection system;
[0055] k—the reservoir permeability, with the unit of mD;

[0059] When the calculated V value ≤ 1, each slug of the spore profile control system and the oil washing system is injected with 100 m 3 ;

[0064] Furthermore, the specific steps of step (3) are as follows:
[0065] Multi - round and multi - slug injection is adopted. For the first slug of each round, the spore agent system is injected into the formation through the injection well using a high - pressure pump. For the second slug of each round, the spore activation activator is injected using a high - pressure pump and air is accompanied throughout the process using a compression pump (displacement 50 m 3 / d). After the injection is completed, the injection well is shut in for 3 - 5 days. For the third slug, a washing oil system is injected using a high - pressure pump. After the injection is completed, it is shut in for 1 - 3 days, and then continuous water flooding is carried out. Among them:
[0066] When the water cut is higher than 95%, the second - round injection is carried out, and the cycle is 5 - 10 times.
[0067] The present invention discloses a method for improving the recovery rate of low - permeability oil reservoirs. The spores in the oil - displacement system are dormant bodies with low water content and strong resistance formed by some bacterial vegetative bodies when the nutrients are exhausted. They have various stress resistances such as heat resistance and salt tolerance, can tolerate a maximum temperature of 120 - 140 °C, can remain active in extreme environments, and can quickly return to the normal cell morphology under suitable conditions. The size of the spore of the bacterial cell is smaller than that of the normal bacterial cell, usually <0.3 μm, and can enter the main flow channels in the deep part of the low - permeability oil reservoir. After injecting the activation activator in the later stage, it is quickly activated and grows in situ at the pores of the main flow channels to achieve microscopic plugging. The sterile biosurfactant fermentation broth injected in the next slug can enter the secondary flow line area rich in remaining oil, and improve the oil - washing efficiency by reducing the interfacial tension and changing the wettability, etc. The process of this patent has the advantages of simple process, low cost, strong pertinence, and obvious effect of improving the recovery rate. At the same time, the oil - displacement system used in this technology can be gradually degraded through biological growth and metabolism, will not cause damage to the formation, and has no hidden danger of environmental pollution.
[0068] The advantages and beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows:
[0069] (1) The present invention has the advantages of low production cost, simple production process, strong targeting, no formation damage, and no environmental pollution;
[0070] (2) Through the multi - round and multi - slug on - site injection method, the present invention realizes the profile control of the main flow line in the deep part of the low - permeability oil reservoir and the efficient oil washing of the remaining oil in the secondary flow line. The maximum reduction of the water cut in the low - permeability oil reservoir reaches more than 20%, the input - output ratio is greater than 1:10, and the recovery rate is increased by more than 20%.

The method for improving the recovery rate of low-permeability oil reservoirs according to claim 1, characterized in that In step (22), the injection amount of each slug profile control system and oil washing system is calculated and determined by the following formula: V = β × k / λ × H where: V—the correlation coefficient value of the injection amount of each slug injection system; k—the permeability of the oil reservoir, unit: mD; H—the effective thickness of the oil reservoir, unit: m; λ—the viscosity of underground crude oil, mPa·s; β—the dosage coefficient, with a value of 2-5, where: When the calculated result V value ≤ 1, each slug of the spore profile control system and the oil washing system is injected with 100 m 3 ; When 1 < calculated result V value ≤ 2, each slug bacillus profile control system and oil washing system are injected with 200 m 3 ; When 2 < calculated result V value ≤ 3, each slug spore profile control system and oil displacement system are injected with 300 m 3 ; When 3 < calculated result V value ≤ 4, each slug bacillus profile control system and oil displacement system are each injected with 400 m 3 ; When the calculated result of the V value > 4, each slug spore profile control system and oil displacement system are each injected with 500 m 3 .
14. The method for improving the recovery rate of low-permeability oil reservoirs according to claim 1, characterized in that the specific steps of step (3) are as follows: Adopt multi-round and multi-slug injection. In the first slug of each round, the Bacillus bacteria agent system is injected into the formation through an injection well using a high-pressure pump. In the second slug of each round, a Bacillus activation activator is injected using a high-pressure pump and air is accompanied by injection using a compression pump throughout the process. After the injection is completed, the injection well is shut in for 3 d-5 d. In the third slug, the oil washing system is injected using a high-pressure pump. After the injection is completed, it is shut in for 1 d-3 d, and subsequent continuous water flooding is carried out, where: When the water cut is higher than 95%, the second-round injection is carried out, and it is circulated for 5-10 rounds.
