摘要
在前人提出的原油氧化-燃烧反应历程基础上,建立了轻质油藏空气驱原油反应历程,采用数值模拟方法研究了未注水和高含水油藏空气驱油效果。研究表明:注水开发前后油藏空气驱中普遍存在气体超覆现象,储集层非均质性越强气体超覆越明显,但O2产出浓度始终较低。对于未注水开发油藏,高注气速率下原油容易实现自燃且保持较高的温度峰值,并维持长时间稳定的燃烧峰面;注气速率对燃烧峰面推进速率的影响存在一个临界值,高于临界注气速率时,随注气速率增加,原油采收率增幅不明显。相同注气速率下,注水开发后的油藏空气驱采收率比未注水开发油藏低6.3%,气油比显著增加,地层水采出程度也较高,可采取聚合物凝胶封堵、空气泡沫/凝胶复合调驱等措施,使生产井气油比或产水量降至合理范围。
Based on the research progress of the crude oil oxidation-combustion model proposed by predecessors, this paper established a new multi-reaction model for high-pressure air injection (HPAI) process to compare the HPAI performance in reservoirs without water injection and high water cut reservoirs by numerical simulation. Results show that gas override is universal in air injection in light oil reservoirs before and after waterflooding, and is more apparent in strongly heterogeneous reservoirs. However, the produced oxygen concentration is very low all the time. For reservoirs that haven't gone through water injection, at high air injection rate oil is very likely to auto-ignite and keep high peak temperature and long time stable combustion front. However, there exists a critical value for the influence of air injection rate on the combustion front moving speed, above the critical value, oil recover factor increment is not obvious with the increase of air injection rate. At the same air injection rate, high water cut reservoirs are 6.3% lower in recovery factor than reservoirs without water injection, with obvious increase in GOR and high water recovery degree during HPAI process. It is suggested that polymer gel/and or foam assisted air injection be taken to reduce GOR/and or water cut in production wells.
