Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of oil and gas field development technology, specifically relating to a method for identifying CO2 gas channeling pathways in low-permeability oil reservoirs. Background Technology

[0002] Gas injection development can effectively improve oil displacement efficiency and increase crude oil recovery. However, due to reservoir heterogeneity and the significant difference in flow capacity between gas and crude oil, gas channeling is highly likely to occur during gas injection, causing a sharp increase in the production gas-oil ratio of the well and a deterioration in reservoir development. Therefore, it is urgent to identify the gas channeling pathways that are prone to form during gas injection development to provide guidance for the design of subsequent control and mitigation strategies.

[0003] Patent application CN202010960492.4 discloses a method and device for predicting gas channeling time in CO2 miscible flooding wells in low-permeability reservoirs. This method only predicts gas channeling time and lacks identification of the gas channeling pathways. Patent application CN201710231158.3 discloses a method for dynamically inverting gas channeling pathways in CO2-flooded reservoirs based on the correspondence between characteristic parameters of the gas-oil ratio curve and an inversion index system. This method only considers the changing characteristics of the gas-oil ratio curve and neglects the application of other dynamic production data, resulting in significant errors. Patent application CN201710786398.X discloses a method for characterizing the degree of gas channeling using a comprehensive CO2 gas channeling index. This method uses the experimentally obtained relationship between CO2 injection rate and CO2 gas content as input data, which is idealized and lacks integration with actual field production. The invention patent application with application number CN201910360031.0 discloses a method and device for rapid inversion of gas channeling in carbon dioxide flooded oil reservoirs. However, this method uses a simple arithmetic average to divide the gas injection volume of the injection well into the direction of different production wells, without considering the influence of geological factors and development factors in the actual oil reservoir on the gas flow process. Therefore, the calculation results have a large deviation. Summary of the Invention

[0091] The geological data includes the porosity, permeability, and effective thickness of the oil layer; the production dynamic data includes the daily gas injection volume, cumulative gas injection volume, injection pressure of the injection well, the maximum CO2 content at the wellhead of the production well, the daily gas production, the daily oil production, the wellhead oil pressure, and the cumulative gas production.

[0092] Furthermore, the gas channel discrimination indicators include static discrimination indicators and dynamic discrimination indicators.

[0105] x i,max The maximum value of the i-th indicator.

[0106] is the average value of the i-th indicator.

[0107] S4. Membership Degree Calculation

[0115] S8. Classification and Direction of Gas Channels

[0116] Based on the on-site feedback regarding the development of gas channeling in the block well group, and combined with the geological and production dynamic data collected by S1, a three-level classification standard for gas channeling was determined, and the development direction of the gas channeling was identified.

[0117] It is worth mentioning that in S3, when modifying the semi-trapezoidal mathematical model based on the advance coefficient, any boundary values ​​that do not meet the advance coefficient Di≤1.5 need to be redefined in combination with the actual situation on site.

[0118] Furthermore, based on the different relationships between the magnitudes of various gas channel discrimination indicators and the development degree of gas channel pathways, ascending half-trapezoidal mathematical models and descending half-trapezoidal mathematical models are established respectively. Specifically, among the gas channel discrimination indicators, the magnitudes of injection pressure and oil recovery intensity are inversely proportional to the development degree of gas channel pathways. Therefore, a descending half-trapezoidal mathematical model is adopted (e.g., Figure 3 As shown), the magnitudes of the other gas channel discrimination indices are directly proportional to the degree of gas channel development, and all adopt a semi-trapezoidal mathematical model (e.g., Figure 2 (As shown).

[0133] Furthermore, in S6, the formula for calculating the comprehensive weight of the static index is:

[0134]

[0140] In the formula: ω d The dynamic index of each injection well or production well is weighted comprehensively, ω l The weight of the l-th dynamic indicator for each injection well or production well is given, where l and n are natural numbers, and l ≥ 2.

[0141] Furthermore, in S7, the formula for calculating the total discriminant coefficient is:

[0142] C t =C j *ω j +C d *ω d

[0143] In the formula: C t C is the total discrimination coefficient for gas channeling in each injection or production well. j C is the comprehensive discrimination coefficient of static indicators for each injection well or production well. d ω is the comprehensive discrimination coefficient for dynamic indicators of each injection well or production well. j ω represents the comprehensive weight of static indicators for each injection well or production well. d The dynamic indicators of each injection well or production well are comprehensively weighted.

[0144] Furthermore, the three-level classification standard for gas channeling is as follows:

[0145] When the total discrimination coefficient of the gas channel is ≥0.5, the development degree of the gas channel is determined to be strong;

[0146] When the total discrimination coefficient of the gas channel is 0.4 ≤ C t <0.5 indicates a weak degree of development of the gas channel;

[0147] When the total discrimination coefficient of the gas channel is C t<0.4 indicates that the gas channel is underdeveloped;

[0148] Furthermore, the method for determining the development direction of gas channel is as follows:

[0149] If the sum of the total discrimination coefficients of the gas channel between a pair of injection wells and production wells in the same well group is the largest and both are ≥0.4, then the development direction of the gas channel is the direction of the line connecting the injection wells and production wells.

[0150] The present invention will be further described below with reference to specific embodiments:

[0215] Table 13 Calculation of Total Discriminant Coefficient for Production Wells

[0216]

[0217]

[0218] Step 8: The classification and direction of gas channeling in this block were determined.

[0219] According to statistics, the development of gas channeling in the 13 gas injection wells in the block is as follows: Figure 4 As shown, 1 injection well had no gas channel development, 5 wells had weak gas channel development, and 7 wells had strong gas channel development; among the 39 production wells, 9 production wells had no gas channel development, 7 wells had weak gas channel development, and 23 wells had strong gas channel development.
