Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of oil and gas exploitation, and in particular to a water plugging well and layer selection evaluation method considering the time-varying characteristics of seepage. Specifically, it is an evaluation model technology for accurately screening oil wells and layers suitable for implementing water plugging measures during the development process of an oil reservoir, taking into account the dynamic changes of reservoir seepage characteristics over time. This technology runs through the middle and late stages of oil reservoir exploitation. By deeply analyzing and processing various oil reservoir data, it provides a scientific and efficient decision-making basis for water plugging operations, so as to improve the oil recovery rate of the oil reservoir and optimize the exploitation benefits. Background Art

[0002] In the field of oil exploitation, water plugging operations are of crucial significance for improving the oil recovery rate of oil wells and optimizing the development effect of oil reservoirs. The accuracy of well and layer selection for water plugging plays a decisive role in the measure effect, and the scientificity and accuracy of its decision-making are directly related to the success or failure of water plugging measures and economic benefits.

[0003] Traditional water plugging well and layer selection evaluation methods mostly focus on the consideration of static geological parameters and production data, such as indicators like the permeability, porosity, current water cut of the oil reservoir, and previous oil production. With the progress of oil reservoir exploitation, a large number of practices and studies have shown that the seepage characteristics inside the oil reservoir are not constant. Taking the mined rock mass as an example, affected by mining activities, the pore and fracture structures of coal mine surrounding rocks will change significantly, thereby causing its seepage characteristics and seepage field to show dynamic change characteristics. This change does not occur instantaneously but has obvious time-varying characteristics. The change of the seepage field will in turn affect the displacement and stress fields of the surrounding rock, prompting the creep characteristics of the rock mass to change. There is a complex and close strong coupling effect between the two. In the oil reservoir environment, this seepage time-varying characteristic also widely exists. As the exploitation time goes by, the oil reservoir pressure continuously drops, the rock pore structure gradually deforms due to stress changes, and coupled with the long-term interaction between the fluid and rock minerals, the size, shape, and connectivity of the seepage channels continue to change, resulting in obvious changes in seepage laws over time.

[0004] However, existing water plugging well and layer selection evaluation models have exposed many problems in practical applications due to the failure to fully consider the seepage time-varying characteristics. On the one hand, there are deviations in the evaluation of the water plugging potential of wells and layers. Some well layers judged to be suitable for water plugging based on static parameters, after implementing water plugging measures, due to the dynamic changes of seepage conditions, fail to achieve the expected oil production increase and water cut reduction effect, and may even cause new water channeling due to the change of the seepage field, resulting in a further decline in the productivity of oil wells. On the other hand, there is a lack of forward-looking prediction of seepage changes during the long-term development process of the oil reservoir, making it difficult for the water plugging plan to adapt to the dynamic evolution of the oil reservoir and unable to achieve continuous and efficient oil reservoir development management.

[0005] It is urgent to develop a water plugging well and layer selection evaluation model that can fully consider the time-varying characteristics of seepage. For the first time, the time-varying seepage theory is combined with fuzzy evaluation to construct a two-time-dimensional evaluation model of "dynamic contingency coefficient + time series prediction". This model will fill the current technical gap, provide a more accurate and scientific decision-making basis for water plugging operations, and effectively improve the effectiveness of water plugging measures and the overall benefit of reservoir development.
