Fig. 1 has described the schematic diagram of the embodiment of a part of situ heat treatment system that handles hydrocarbon containing formation.The situ heat treatment system can comprise barrier wells 200.Use barrier wells around processing region, to form screen layer.The screen layer suppression fluid flows out and/or the inflow processing region.Barrier wells includes but not limited to dewatering well, vacuum well, capture well, injector well, mud well, freezing well or their combination.In some embodiments, barrier wells 200 is dewatering wells.Dewatering well can be removed liquid water and/or suppress liquid water and enter in a part of stratum to be heated or in the stratum of heating.In the embodiment that Fig. 1 describes, provided the barrier wells 200 of only extending, but barrier wells is typically surrounded whole thermals source 202 of the processing region on heating stratum employed or to be used along a side of thermal source 202.
Thermal source 202 places at least a portion stratum.Thermal source 202 can comprise heater, for example the conductor heater in the insulated electric conductor, conduit, surface combustion burner, aphlogistic distribution/or the burner of NATURAL DISTRIBUTION.Thermal source 202 also can comprise the heater of other type.Thermal source 202 provides heat to arrive at least a portion stratum with the hydrocarbon in the heating stratum.Can be by supply line 204 supplying energies to thermal source 202.Supply line 204 structurally can be different, and this depends on the type of heating employed a kind of thermal source in stratum or multiple thermal source.The supply line 204 that is used for thermal source can transmit the electricity that is used for electric heater, can transport the fuel that is used for burner, perhaps can transport the heat exchanging fluid that circulates in the stratum.
When the heating stratum, the heat that is input in the stratum can cause that expand in the stratum and the geomechanics motion.But the computer simulation simulated formation is to the response of heating.The analog development that can use a computer is used for activating the pattern and the time series of thermal source in the stratum, so that the motion of the geomechanics on stratum can not influence the function of the miscellaneous equipment in thermal source, producing well and the stratum negatively.
The heating stratum can cause that the permeability on stratum and/or porosity increase.Permeability and/or porosity increase can come from the stratum material and reduce, this be because the gasification of water and remove, the removing and/or producing due to the fracture of hydrocarbon.Because the permeability on stratum and/or porosity increase, fluid may flow in the heating part on stratum easilier.Because the permeability and/or the porosity that increase, the fluid in the heating part on stratum can move sizable distance by the stratum.Sizable distance can be to surpass 1000m, and this depends on various factors, for example the temperature on the performance of the permeability on stratum, fluid, stratum and the barometric gradient that allows fluid to move.Advance in the stratum ability of sizable distance of fluid allows producing well 206 to be arranged in the stratum at interval relatively far.
Use producing well 206 from the stratum, to remove formation fluid.In some embodiments, producing well 206 comprises thermal source.Thermal source in producing well can heat at the producing well place or near one or more parts on the stratum it.In some situ heat treatment method embodiments,, be fed to heat in the stratum less than being fed to the heat on stratum from the thermal source on heating stratum in every meter thermal source from producing well in every meter producing well.The heat that is fed to the stratum from producing well can and be removed the liquid phase fluid adjacent with producing well by evaporation, and/or increase the permeability on the stratum adjacent, thereby the permeability on the increase stratum adjacent with producing well with producing well by forming the fracture of macroscopic view and/or microcosmic.
Multiple thermal source can be arranged in the producing well.When the heat stack heating stratum from adjacent thermal source is enough to weaken the producing well heating benefit that the stratum provided, can be closed in the thermal source of producing well bottom.In some embodiments, when the thermal source inactivation of producing well bottom, the thermal source on producing well top can keep work.Can suppress the condensation and the backflow of formation fluid at the thermal source of this aboveground portion.
In some embodiments, the thermal source in producing well 206 allows to remove the gas phase formation fluid from the stratum.Provide at the producing well place or by producing well heat can: (1) when produce fluid with superstratum adjacent production well in when mobile, suppress the condensation and/or the backflow of this production fluid, (2) increase the heat that is input in the stratum, (3) compare with the producing well that does not have thermal source, increase is from the productivity ratio of producing well, (4) suppress higher carbon compounds (C6 and more than) condensation in producing well, and/or (5) are increased in the producing well place or near the permeability on stratum it.
The fluid pressure that subsurface pressure in the stratum can be equivalent to generate in the stratum.When the temperature in the heating part on stratum increases, generate and the result of the gasification of water as the fluid that increases, the pressure in heating part can increase.The control speed that fluid shifts out from the stratum can allow to control the pressure in the stratum.Can be at many diverse locations, for example near producing well place or its, near thermal source place or its, perhaps be determined at pressure in the stratum at monitoring Jing Chu.
In some hydrocarbon containing formations, produce hydrocarbon by the stratum and be suppressed, up at least some hydrocarbon in the stratum by pyrolysis.When formation fluid has the quality of selection, can be by grown place, stratum layer fluid.In some embodiments, the quality of selection comprises the API Gravity at least about 20 °, 30 ° or 40 °.Suppress to produce and to be increased the conversion ratio that heavy hydrocarbon changes into light hydrocarbon by pyrolysis up at least some hydrocarbon.The inhibition initial production can minimize the output from the heavy hydrocarbon on stratum.Producing significantly, a large amount of heavy hydrocarbons can require the equipment of costliness and/or the life-span of reducing production equipment.
In some hydrocarbon containing formations, in the time of can producing significantly big permeability in the heating part on stratum, the hydrocarbon in the heating stratum is to pyrolysis temperature.The FLUID TRANSPORTATION that initial permeability can not suppress completely to be generated is to producing well 206.In initial heating process, the fluid pressure around thermal source 202 in the stratum can increase.Can discharge, monitor, change and/or control the fluid pressure that is increased by one or more thermals source 202.For example thermal source 202 of Xuan Zeing or independent pressure reduction well can comprise dropping valve, and described dropping valve allows to remove some fluids from the stratum.
In some embodiments, can the pressure that pyrolyzation fluid or other fluid produced that allows to generate in the stratum by expanding increases, may not be present in the stratum yet although lead to the open access of producing well 206 or any other diffusing kill-job.Can allow fluid pressure to increase towards lithostatic pressure power.For example in the heating part on stratum, can 206 formation rupture from thermal source 202 to producing well.The generation fracture can discharge some pressure in this part in heating part.Pressure in the stratum may must be kept and be lower than selection pressure suppressing the fracture of undesired production, superstratum or underlying strata, and/or the coking of hydrocarbon in the stratum.
After reaching pyrolysis temperature and allowing from the stratum, to produce, can change the pressure in the stratum, to change and/or to control the composition of the formation fluid of being produced, the percentage of condensable fluid is compared in control with the uncondensable fluid in the formation fluid, and/or controls the API Gravity of the formation fluid of being produced.For example reduce pressure and can cause producing more condensable fluid component.Condensable fluid component can contain the alkene of big percentage.
In some situ heat treatment method embodiments, the pressure that can keep in the stratum is enough high, with the formation fluid of promotion production API Gravity greater than 20 °.Keeping in the stratum pressure that increases can be suppressed in the situ heat treatment process and form sediment.The pressure of keeping increase can quicken production gaseous fluid from the stratum.Gas phase is produced and can be allowed to reduce the size of conveying by the employed collecting duct of fluid of stratum production.The pressure of keeping increase can reduce or need not compress formation fluid in the surface, so that carry fluid to handling in the facility in collecting duct.
Keeping the pressure that increases in the heating part on stratum can allow the quality of production to improve and the low relatively a large amount of hydrocarbon of molecular weight astoundingly.Can keep pressure, have the compound more than the selection carbon number of minimum with the formation fluid of toilet production.It can be maximum 25 selecting carbon number, maximum 20, maximum 12, or maximum 8.The compound of some high carbon numbers can be entrained in the steam in the stratum, and can use steam to shift out from the stratum.Keep compound and/or polycyclic hydrocarbon compounds that the pressure that increases in the stratum can be suppressed at entrainment of high carbon number in the steam.In the significantly long time period, high carbon number compound and/or polycyclic hydrocarbon compounds can be retained in the liquid phase in the stratum.The significant time period can provide the time of abundance for the compound of compound pyrolysis formation than low carbon number.
It is believed that the low-molecular-weight relatively hydrocarbon of generation partly be since in a part of hydrocarbon containing formation hydrogen automatic generation and the reaction due to.The hydrogen that the pressure of for example keeping increase can be forced to generate in pyrolytic process enters in the liquid phase in the stratum.But heat the hydrocarbon generation liquid phase pyrolyzation fluid in the temperature pyrolysis stratum of this part in the pyrolysis temperature range.The liquid phase pyrolyzation fluid component that is generated can comprise two keys and/or free radical.Hydrogen (H in liquid phase 2) can reduce the two keys in the pyrolyzation fluid that is generated, thus reduce by pyrolyzation fluid polymerization that is generated or the possibility that forms long-chain compound.In addition, H 2The interior free radical of pyrolyzation fluid that also can neutralize and be generated.Therefore, the H in liquid phase 2The pyrolyzation fluid that can suppress to be generated react each other and/or with the stratum in the reaction of other compound.
The formation fluid of being produced by producing well 206 can be transported in the treatment facility 210 by collection conduit 208.Also can be by thermal source 202 grown place layer fluid.For example can produce fluid, with the pressure in the control stratum adjacent with thermal source by thermal source 202.The fluid of being produced by thermal source 202 can be transported in the gathering line 208 by pipeline or pipeline, and perhaps the fluid of being produced can be delivered directly in the treatment facility 210 by pipeline or pipeline.Treatment facility 210 can comprise separative element, reaction member, upgrading unit, fuel cell, turbine, reservoir vessel and/or other system and the unit that formation fluid that processing is produced is used.Treatment facility can form transport fuel by at least a portion hydrocarbon that the stratum produces.
