Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of oil and gas field development technology, and more specifically, to a method for calculating the gas-oil ratio in a multi-stage degassing system for offshore condensate gas reservoirs. Background Technology
[0002] Condensate gas reservoirs are a special type of gas reservoir in which hydrocarbons exist as a single gas phase under high temperature and pressure conditions deep underground. When condensate gas is extracted to the surface, the temperature and pressure drop to the surface level, and the formation temperature is usually between the critical temperature and critical condensation temperature of the hydrocarbon mixture, while the pressure is higher than the dew point pressure. During the isothermal depressurization extraction process (the temperature also decreases after the gas reservoir is extracted to the surface, but the effect of pressure reduction is more critical, so theoretically it is approximated as a constant formation temperature), the fluid phase path will cross the dew point line and enter the gas-liquid two-phase region, where some components will condense into liquid petroleum, i.e., condensate oil. This process is called "reverse condensation".
[0003] In condensate gas reservoir development, the fluid undergoes multiple pressure and temperature changes from the well bottom to the surface, resulting in numerous phase transitions and making the calculation of the gas-oil ratio exceptionally complex. Accurately determining condensate oil production is crucial for oil and gas transportation, storage, and sales, especially in offshore development, where precise measurement of condensate oil volume directly affects the rational scheduling of tanker tonnage and quantity, directly impacting transportation costs and operational efficiency.
[0004] Currently, traditional methods such as the black oil model or the simple equilibrium constant method are insufficient to accurately describe the dynamic changes in the composition of the gas and liquid phases during multi-stage separation, and cannot precisely track the distribution of each component. Experimental measurement methods (such as PVT experiments) are also often unable to reliably measure the amount of condensate oil due to limitations in equipment precision and low condensate oil content.
[0005] The shortcomings of the aforementioned existing technologies often lead to large deviations in the prediction of condensate oil volume, which in turn results in unreasonable tanker transportation configurations—too many tankers will significantly increase transportation costs, while too few tankers will fail to complete the transfer of all condensate oil. Summary of the Invention
[0006] The purpose of this invention is to overcome the limitations of existing technologies in accurately measuring the condensate oil production of extracted condensate gas reservoirs, and to provide a method for calculating the gas-oil ratio of a multi-stage degassing system for offshore condensate gas reservoirs. This method can accurately measure the condensate oil production, thereby enabling the rational scheduling of appropriate tonnage and number of tankers for transportation.
[0007] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the technical solution adopted by the present invention is as follows: A method for calculating the gas-oil ratio in a multi-stage degassing system for offshore condensate gas reservoirs is provided, including the following steps: S1: Calculate the gas composition output from the production end of the wellbore to the slug trap, and obtain the volume fractions of gas phase G1 and liquid phase L1 under the temperature and pressure conditions, wherein the volume fraction of gas phase G1 is X1 and the volume fraction of liquid phase L1 is Y1. S2: The liquid phase L1 is processed through a three-stage separator to obtain gas phase G4 and liquid phase L4. By calculating the volume fraction of gas phase G4 and liquid phase L4, the volume fraction of gas phase G4 is X4 and the volume fraction of liquid phase L4 is Y4. S3: Mix the gas phase G1 and the gas phase G4 and calculate the composition of the mixed gas phase. Then perform low-temperature dehydrocarbonization treatment to obtain gas phase G2 and liquid phase L2. The volume fraction of gas phase G2 is X2 and the volume fraction of liquid phase L2 is Y2. S4: Mix the liquid phase L2 and the liquid phase L4 and calculate the composition of the mixed liquid phase. After merging under the temperature and pressure conditions at the condensate oil sampling point, calculate the volume fraction of liquid phase L5 as Y5. S5: The gas phase G2 is transferred to the compressor, and under the temperature and pressure conditions after pressurization, a new gas phase G3 and liquid phase L3 are obtained; the volume fraction of gas phase G3 is calculated to be X3. S6: Define the initial gas volume as 1 and calculate the gas-oil ratio using the following formula: ; ; ; In the above formula, Q is the gas phase volume content per unit volume, N is the liquid phase volume content condensed per unit volume, and P is the gas-oil ratio per unit volume.
[0008] In the calculation process of the above scheme, The physical meaning of this is the volume content of gas phase G4 separated by the three-stage separator from a unit of initial gas in step S2. The physical meaning of this expression is the volume fraction of liquid phase L4 separated by the three-stage separator from a unit initial gas in step S2; while The physical meaning is the volume content of the inlet gas before the unit initial volume enters the low-temperature dehydrocarbonization process in step S3. The physical meaning is the gaseous volume content of phase G2 after low-temperature dehydrocarbonization per unit initial volume in step S3; similarly, The physical meaning is the liquid volume content of the liquid phase L2 after low-temperature dehydrogenation per unit initial volume in step S3.
[0009] The final produced gas and liquid both need to be transferred to gas storage tanks or liquid storage tanks for storage. Therefore, the volume fraction in the storage state needs to be multiplied at the end of the formula.
[0010] Furthermore, after calculating the gas composition from the production end to the slug trap using the QNSS model, the gas phase G1 and the liquid phase L1 are obtained after oil-gas separation through the gas path and oil path. The gas phase and liquid phase need to be processed by different processes, so the gas path and oil path need to be set up to separate the condensate oil and gas first.
[0011] Furthermore, in step S1, the temperature and pressure conditions of the gas phase G1 and the liquid phase L1 are 5-10℃ and 10-10.5MPa, respectively; the temperature and pressure conditions inside the slug flow trap are the temperatures at which condensate gas is extracted from underground to the surface for collection and processing.
[0012] Furthermore, in step S4, the temperature and pressure conditions at the condensate oil sampling point are 22.5-27.5℃ and 0.2-0.25Mpa; the temperature and pressure conditions at the condensate oil sampling point are the same as those in actual engineering oil tank storage.
[0013] Furthermore, in step S5, the temperature and pressure conditions after the compressor is boosted are 40-45℃ and 13-17 MPa; the compressor boosting process simulates the gas pressure under storage conditions, at which time liquid phase L3 will condense in the gas storage tank.
[0014] Furthermore, in step S4, the volume fraction of gas phase G5 obtained by calculating at the condensate oil sampling point under the temperature and pressure conditions of the gas phase G4 separated by the three-stage separator is X5. The formula for calculating the volume content of gas phase G5 per unit initial gas is: ; In the above formula, This represents the volume content of gaseous G5 per unit volume.
[0015] In engineering, after the condensate oil is separated by the three-stage separator, it is directly fed into the oil reservoir storage tank. The oil tank is usually required to not contain too much gas. Under the temperature and pressure conditions at the condensate oil sampling point, the volume fraction of gas phase G5 should be close to 0. If the value of X5 deviates too much from zero, the engineer can calculate the gas volume content according to the above formula in order to adjust the storage in the future.
[0016] Furthermore, in step S3, after low-temperature dehydrocarbonization, the formula for calculating the volume of liquid phase L2 obtained per unit initial gas is: ; In step S5, the volume fraction of liquid phase G3 is calculated as Y3. The formula for calculating the volume of liquid phase L3 obtained per unit initial gas after compressor processing is as follows: ; In the above formula, This refers to the volume content of the liquid phase L2 at the outlet after low-temperature dehydrocarbonization. The volume content of the liquid phase L3 obtained after compressor processing.
[0017] In engineering, the gas obtained after low-temperature dehydrocarbonization is relatively pure and can be directly used for pressurized storage. However, the gas tank is usually required to not contain too much liquid. Under the storage temperature and pressure conditions, the volume fraction of liquid phase G3, Y3 should be close to 0, that is, the gas tank will not continue to condense and precipitate liquid condensate. If the value of Y3 deviates too much from zero, the engineering can calculate the volume content of the condensed liquid phase according to the above formula, so as to facilitate the subsequent adjustment and storage of the gas tank.
[0018] Further, in step S3, the mixed gas phase components of gas phase G1 and gas phase G4 are calculated using a weighted summation model; in step S4, the mixed liquid phase components of liquid phase L2 and liquid phase L4 are calculated using a weighted summation model. Based on the principle of the weighted summation mathematical model, the component processed in each step is equal to the weighted sum of the volume fractions of all components before this step, where the weight of each component (the sum of all weights is 1) is the percentage of that component in the total gas volume. Finally, in step S6, the temperature and pressure during gas and liquid phase storage are simulated using a compressor and sampling points to calculate the gas-oil ratio under these physical conditions.
[0019] Furthermore, the weighted summation model is calculated using the following formula: ; in, ; In the above formula, This represents the volume fraction of a specific component in a fluid mixture. This represents the volume fraction of the component in the incoming fluid before mixing. This represents the volume fraction of the influent in the mixed fluid.
[0020] The weighted summation model, based on fundamental statistical principles, can accurately estimate the volume fraction of each component in a gas mixture from different gas paths after mixing.
[0021] Furthermore, in steps S1-S5, the volume fraction is calculated using the QNSS model; the Newton-Raphson iteration formula for calculating the volume fraction using the QNSS model is as follows: ; ; Given the feed composition Zi and the phase equilibrium constant Ki, the Rachford-Rice equation can be solved to obtain... ; In the above formula, This represents the volume fraction of the liquid phase component. This represents the volume fraction of the gaseous component. As feed components, The phase equilibrium constant of the component is... This represents the gas phase fraction. The above calculation formula is the basic theoretical calculation formula for the QNSS model of the steady-state flash evaporation process.
[0022] The Rachford-Rice equation is: In the process of Newton's iterative solution, it is necessary to first assume a set of initial phase equilibrium constants. Calculated by the Rachford-Rice equation This allows for the calculation of the liquid and gas phase compositions, utilizing new... and Recalculate using the state equation Final check If the composition does not converge, try a new one. Perform calculations using the Rachford-Rice equation until... The combination of these two components converges.
[0023] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are: 1. Based on this calculation method, in engineering, the composition of condensate gas reservoirs in wellbores on the surface can be measured to calculate the oil flow volume and gas flow volume in advance. This helps engineers to rationally schedule the appropriate tonnage and number of tankers for transportation, reduce transportation costs, and achieve the goal of integrated production, supply and sales in gas reservoir development.
[0024] 2. Based on this calculation method, in engineering practice, by measuring the composition of condensate gas reservoirs in wellbores on the surface, the volume fraction of each component of the mixed gas in different gas paths can be estimated relatively accurately.

[0029] Specifically, after calculating the gas composition from the production end to the slug trap using the QNSS model, the gas phase G1 and liquid phase L1 are obtained after oil-gas separation through the gas path and oil path. The gas phase and liquid phase need to be processed by different processes, so the gas path and oil path need to be set up to separate the condensate oil and gas first.
[0030] Specifically, in step S1, the temperature and pressure conditions for the gas phase G1 and liquid phase L1 are 5-10℃ and 10-10.5 MPa, respectively; the temperature and pressure conditions inside the slug trap are the temperatures at which condensate gas is extracted from underground to the surface for collection and processing. In this embodiment, as... Figure 3 As shown, the temperature and pressure conditions for gas phase G1 and liquid phase L1 are 7℃ and 10.3MPa, respectively.
[0031] Specifically, in step S4, the temperature and pressure conditions at the condensate oil sampling point are 22.5-27.5℃ and 0.2-0.25 MPa; the temperature and pressure conditions at the condensate oil sampling point are the same as those during actual oil tank storage in engineering practice. In this embodiment, as... Figure 3 As shown, the temperature and pressure conditions at the condensate oil sampling point were 25℃ and 0.23 MPa.

In this embodiment, as... Figure 3 As shown, the temperature and pressure conditions after the compressor is boosted are 43℃ and 15MPa.
[0033] Specifically, in steps S1-S5, the volume fraction is calculated using the QNSS model; the Newton-Raphson iteration formula for calculating the volume fraction using the QNSS model is: ; ; Given the feed composition Zi and the phase equilibrium constant Ki, the Rachford-Rice equation can be solved to obtain... ; In the above formula, This represents the volume fraction of the liquid phase component.

[0035] The calculation principle of the gas-oil ratio calculation method for a multi-stage degassing system in an offshore condensate gas reservoir in this embodiment is as follows: Taking a condensate gas reservoir that was actually exploited as an example, the component data at the wellbore after exploitation (i.e., the wellbore components before entering the slug trap) is shown in Table 1.

[0042]
[0043] Table 4 - Weighted summation component data of the mixed gas before low-temperature dehydrocarbonization The QNSS model was used to calculate the above gas phase under low temperature dehydrocarbonization temperature and pressure conditions. The calculated composition is shown in Table 5, and the volume fractions of the gas and liquid phases were obtained (Y2=1.5638, X2=98.4362).
[0044]

[0047] Step S5: The gas from the low-temperature dehydrocarbonization process is further pressurized by a compressor in the gas path. The obtained gas is then calculated using the QNSS model to obtain the gas-liquid two-phase volume fraction (Y3=0, X3=100).
[0048] Step S6: Calculate using the established formula: ; We obtain Q = 0.984342071 and N = 9.60144e-05; The gas-oil ratio per unit volume can be obtained This result is basically consistent with the actual measured gas-oil ratio of 10342 on site.
[0049] The beneficial effects of this embodiment are: by measuring the condensate gas reservoir composition in the wellbore on the surface, the calculation of oil volume and gas volume in the pipeline can be realized in advance, which can effectively help engineers to rationally schedule the appropriate tonnage and number of oil tankers for transportation, reduce transportation costs, and achieve the goal of integrated production, supply and sales in gas reservoir development.
[0050] Example 2 This embodiment is the second embodiment of a method for calculating the gas-oil ratio in a multi-stage degassing system for offshore condensate gas reservoirs. Figures 2 to 3As shown, the difference from Embodiment 1 is as follows: Specifically, in step S4, the volume fraction of gas phase G5 obtained from the gas phase G4 separated by the three-stage separator is calculated as X5 under the temperature and pressure conditions at the condensate oil sampling point. The formula for calculating the volume content of gas phase G5 per unit initial gas is: ; In the above formula, This represents the volume content of gaseous G5 per unit volume.
[0051] In engineering, after the condensate oil is separated by the three-stage separator, it is directly fed into the oil reservoir storage tank. The oil tank is usually required to not contain too much gas. Under the temperature and pressure conditions at the condensate oil sampling point, the volume fraction of gas phase G5 should be close to 0. If the value of X5 deviates too much from zero, the engineer can calculate the gas volume content according to the above formula in order to adjust the storage in the future.
[0052] Specifically, in step S3, after low-temperature dehydrocarbonization, the formula for calculating the volume of liquid phase L2 obtained per unit initial gas is: ; In step S5, the volume fraction of liquid phase G3 is calculated as Y3. The formula for calculating the volume of liquid phase L3 obtained per unit initial gas after compressor processing is as follows: ; In the above formula, This refers to the volume content of the liquid phase L2 at the outlet after low-temperature dehydrocarbonization. The volume content of the liquid phase L3 obtained after compressor processing.
[0053] In engineering, the gas obtained after low-temperature dehydrocarbonization is relatively pure and can be directly used for pressurized storage. However, the gas tank is usually required to not contain too much liquid. Under the storage temperature and pressure conditions, the volume fraction of liquid phase G3, Y3 should be close to 0, that is, the gas tank will not continue to condense and precipitate liquid condensate. If the value of Y3 deviates too much from zero, the engineering can calculate the volume content of the condensed liquid phase according to the above formula, so as to facilitate the subsequent adjustment and storage of the gas tank.
[0054] The calculation principle of the gas-oil ratio calculation method for a multi-stage degassing system in an offshore condensate gas reservoir in this embodiment is as follows: Using the above calculation formulas, the volume content of condensate oil in the gas after low-temperature dehydrocarbonization under the storage temperature and pressure conditions, as well as the gas volume content of condensate oil under the temperature and pressure conditions at the sampling point, can be calculated.
