[0026] Example 1
[0027] Figure 1 A flow chart of a foam liquid flooding method under the action of pulsed liquid phase discharge is provided for the first embodiment of the present invention. This embodiment is applicable to the case where the recovery rate is low when flooding with foam liquid. The method can be performed by a foam liquid flooding device under the action of pulsed liquid phase discharge. The foam liquid flooding device under the action of pulsed liquid phase discharge can be implemented in the form of hardware and / or software. The foam liquid flooding device under the action of pulsed liquid phase discharge can be configured in an electronic device with data processing capabilities. Figure 1 As shown, the method includes:
[0028] S110. Determine a foam fluid for foam flooding that matches the target oil reservoir based on the core, formation water, and crude oil properties of the target oil reservoir.
[0029] The target reservoir may be the reservoir to be flooded. The crude oil properties may be the properties of the crude oil in the target reservoir, including but not limited to color, density, viscosity, chemical composition, and impurity content.
[0030] The core, crude oil properties and formation water of the target oil reservoir are obtained, and according to the existing foam liquid flooding method, corresponding foam liquid for foam liquid flooding is generated, and the foam liquid is mixed with the formation water to obtain a foam liquid mixed solution.
[0031] S120: Injecting the foam liquid into the water injection well of the target oil reservoir.
[0032] A water injection well may be a well that injects water into a target oil reservoir.
[0033] The foam liquid mixed solution is injected into the water injection well of the target oil reservoir through high-pressure pumps and other equipment to drive oil from the target oil reservoir.
[0034] S130: Applying a pulsed liquid phase discharge effect to the target oil reservoir, and displacing oil from the target oil reservoir based on the pulsed liquid phase discharge effect.
[0035] Before flooding the target reservoir, a pulsed liquid phase discharge is applied to the target reservoir, so that when flooding the target reservoir, the characteristics of multi-physical fields can be used to improve the oil recovery rate, thereby achieving the effect of improving the oil recovery rate of foam liquid flooding.
[0036] In an optional solution, flooding a target reservoir based on pulsed liquid discharge may include steps A1-A2:
[0037] Step A1: Determine the recovery factor of the target oil reservoir based on the oil displacement products obtained by oil displacement.
[0038] Step A2: If the increase in the recovery rate within the preset time is less than the preset increment, adjust the action parameters of the pulse liquid phase discharge action until the increase is greater than or equal to the preset increment.
[0039] During flooding, the recovery factor of the target reservoir is calculated based on the displacement products obtained. If the recovery factor increases less than the preset increment within a preset time, it indicates that the pulsed liquid phase discharge effect is unable to further improve the recovery factor under the current action parameters. In this case, the pulsed liquid phase discharge effect parameters will be adjusted until the increase is greater than or equal to the preset increment, thereby ensuring the recovery factor is improved.
[0040] Optionally, after adjusting the action parameters of the pulse liquid phase discharge action, the method further includes:
[0041] If the increase in recovery rate within the preset time is less than the preset increment and the number of adjustments of the action parameter reaches the preset adjustment condition, the adjustment of the action parameter is stopped; wherein the preset adjustment condition is determined according to the preset range of the action parameter.
[0042] The preset adjustment condition may be a maximum number of times the action parameter is adjusted, determined according to a preset range of the action parameter.
[0043] If the increase in the recovery factor within the preset time is less than the preset increment, and the number of adjustments to the action parameters reaches the preset adjustment conditions, it indicates that it is difficult to find specific action parameters within the preset range that can improve the recovery factor. At this time, in order to avoid wasting resources, the action parameters will no longer be adjusted.
[0044] Accordingly, pulsed liquid discharge is applied to the target reservoir, including:
[0045] At least a pulsed liquid phase discharge having a voltage intensity within a third preset range, a frequency within a fourth preset range, and a pulse width within a fifth preset range is applied to the target reservoir.
[0046] Turn on the high-voltage pulse power supply and other equipment to apply pulse liquid phase discharge to the target reservoir with at least a voltage intensity within the third preset range, a frequency within the fourth preset range, and a pulse width within the fifth preset range.
[0047] The present application discloses a third preset range, but does not limit it. The third preset range is 2 to 40 kV, preferably 30 kV.
[0048] This application discloses a fourth preset range, but is not limited thereto. The fourth preset range is 100 to 2000 Hz, preferably 300 Hz.
[0049] The present application discloses a fifth preset range, but does not limit it. The fifth preset range is 10 to 500 ns, preferably 120 ns.
[0050] Optionally, the starting time of application and / or the application time length of the pulse liquid phase discharge effect are the same and / or different.
[0051] According to the technical solution of the embodiment of the present invention, a foam liquid for foam flooding that matches the target oil reservoir is determined based on the core, formation water and crude oil properties of the target oil reservoir; the foam liquid is injected into the water injection well of the target oil reservoir; a pulsed liquid phase discharge effect is applied to the target oil reservoir, and oil is flooded from the target oil reservoir based on the pulsed liquid phase discharge effect, so that when the foam liquid is used for oil flooding, the recovery rate of the foam liquid flooding is improved by combining the pulsed liquid phase discharge with the foam liquid flooding technology.

The foam liquid flooding device under the action of pulsed liquid phase discharge can be configured in an electronic device with data processing capabilities. Figure 2 As shown, the foam liquid flooding device under the action of pulsed liquid phase discharge in this embodiment may include: a foam liquid generation module 210, a foam liquid injection module 220 and an oil reservoir flooding module 230. Among them:
[0054] The foam liquid generation module 210 is used to determine the foam liquid for foam flooding that matches the target reservoir based on the core, formation water and crude oil properties of the target reservoir;
[0055] A foam liquid injection module 220 is used to inject foam liquid into the water injection well of the target oil reservoir;
[0056] The oil reservoir displacement module 230 is used to apply a pulsed liquid phase discharge effect to the target oil reservoir, and to perform oil displacement in the target oil reservoir based on the pulsed liquid phase discharge effect.

[0059] The action parameter adjustment unit is used to adjust the action parameters of the pulse liquid phase discharge action if the increase in the recovery rate within the preset time is less than the preset increment, until the increase is greater than or equal to the preset increment.
[0060] Based on the above embodiment, optionally, after the action parameter adjustment unit, the device further includes:
[0061] The parameter stop adjustment unit is used to stop adjusting the action parameter if the increase in the recovery rate within the preset time is less than the preset increment and the number of adjustments to the action parameter reaches the preset adjustment condition; wherein the preset adjustment condition is determined according to the preset range of the action parameter.
[0062] Accordingly, the reservoir displacement module 230 includes:
