Description

In-situ microemulsion generation and oil displacement efficiency testing device and method
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of oil exploitation, and particularly relates to a device and a method for in-situ microemulsion generation and oil displacement efficiency testing.
Background
The development of old oil fields in the eastern part of China enters the middle and later stages of high-water-content development, the average water content is about 90 percent, the maximum water content reaches 95 percent, and the water-flooding mode is difficult to further improve the recovery ratio. In addition, the reservoir plane and longitudinal heterogeneity of most oil fields are severe, stratum conditions show a deterioration trend along with development, the water-flooding development efficiency is reduced year by year, the oil gas yield is poor in a high water-cut stage, the development difficulty is increased, and the economic benefit is low, so that the search of a displacement technology after water flooding is very important.
Chemical oil displacement methods such as surfactant flooding, polymer flooding, alkali-water flooding and the like are widely used in oil fields as a take-over technology after water flooding, but the methods are not suitable for development of complex oil and gas reservoirs such as low-permeability reservoirs, heavy oil reservoirs, heterogeneous reservoirs and the like, and cannot achieve the expected development effect, so related scholars propose a microemulsion oil displacement technology. The microemulsion has low interfacial tension with oil and water, has small capillary resistance, can enter a tiny pore passage, increases the sweep coefficient, reduces the injection pressure, and finally achieves the effect of improving the recovery ratio. In volume 3 of 1986 in oilfield chemistry, the article of experimental research on micelle-microemulsion displacement mechanism published by Huangyan Chao et al is recorded, and the article indicates that micelle-microemulsion displacement in tertiary oil recovery is an effective method for improving the recovery rate of crude oil. Under the experimental condition, a micelle-microemulsion system is continuously injected, and 100 percent of oil can be basically extracted; when different types of 0.1PV systems are injected, the oil displacement efficiency is reduced according to the sequence of an oil external phase, a middle phase and a water external phase, and if factors such as economy and the like are considered, the middle phase oil displacement system is the best; the oil displacement efficiency is higher when the fluidity is controlled than when the fluidity is not controlled; the lower the interfacial tension between the system and the oil, the higher the oil displacement efficiency.
In volume 17 of the fine chemical industry, liu Fang et al, which is published as the article "application of surfactant in oil exploitation" is recorded, and the article indicates that the microemulsion flooding can improve the crude oil recovery rate to 80% -90%, and that the microemulsion is interfacial-free with oil and water, i.e. has no interfacial tension and capillary resistance, has a higher sweep efficiency than common water, and is completely miscible with oil, so that the oil washing rate is very good. The microemulsion is injected into the stratum to form a slug, dissolves crude oil remained in the pores of the stratum, is separated into oil phases after reaching saturation, and is produced from a well. Liu Fang et al performed related indoor studies of microemulsion flooding with a 3.0% Yumen petroleum sulfonate-3A and 2.6% mixed alcohol (butanol and isopropanol) system having a solubilization parameter of 12 and an interfacial tension of 3.3X 10 -4 mN/m, the oil displacement efficiency (the saturation of residual oil after water flooding) can reach 94.6%, and a single-well throughput test is carried out in Yumen oil field Laojun oil mine F-184 well in 1990, 12 months, so that a good application effect is obtained. In 2017, volume 34 of oilfield chemistry, a article from in-situ microemulsion flooding experimental research published by lisi yoga et al, in which in-situ microemulsion flooding based on a compound surfactant (B-1) of anion-nonionic and anion carboxylate and a mono-aralkyl sulfonate surfactant (A3-2) is researched, and the oil displacement effect of the in-situ microemulsion and surfactant/polymer binary composite flooding is analyzed and compared, and the research result shows that the oil displacement effect of the in-situ microemulsion flooding is better than that of the surfactant/polymer binary composite flooding. The in-situ microemulsion flooding mainly depends on the solubilization of a surfactant to form the microemulsion with crude oil in situ in a porous medium, so that the effect of miscible displacement of reservoir oil is achieved; when the crude oil is solubilized in the micelle of the microemulsion to be saturated, clustered and spotted residual oil is preferentially started through mechanisms of emulsification carrying, reduction of oil-water interfacial tension, improvement of wettability and the like, so that various types of residual oil are effectively started and transported.
Microemulsion flooding is a chemical oil displacement method with higher displacement efficiency, is well applied to tertiary oil recovery of low-permeability reservoirs, and mainly depends on the solubilization of a surfactant to generate microemulsion with crude oil in situ in a stratum porous medium, so that the miscible oil displacement effect is achieved; when the solubilized crude oil is saturated, the continuous sheet residual oil, cluster residual oil, dispersed residual oil and the like are started by mechanisms of reducing the oil-water interfacial tension, emulsifying carrying, improving wettability and the like, so that the continuous sheet residual oil, the cluster residual oil, the dispersed residual oil and the like are effectively transported, and the aim of recovery is fulfilled. However, the performance of the in-situ microemulsion can be influenced by multiple factors such as reservoir temperature, pressure, pore structure, formation water mineralization, crude oil property and the like, and the properties of the microemulsion itself and the like, and the comprehensive effect of the factors directly influences the recovery ratio of microemulsion flooding. Therefore, it is necessary to simulate the complex and harsh conditions in the oil reservoir, generate the microemulsion in situ with the crude oil by the surfactant and test the micro-emulsion oil displacement capability and the macro-emulsion oil displacement capability. The traditional microcosmic visual model has a simpler structure, can realize relatively fewer simulation conditions, can not be combined with an in-situ microemulsion generation system, a microcosmic oil displacement capability test and a macroscopic oil displacement capability test, can realize fewer functions, and is difficult to realize in-situ microemulsion generation and oil displacement efficiency test under complex oil reservoir conditions. Taking the chinese patent application No. 201621178261.3 as an example, the designed microscopic visualization system comprises an observation and collection system and a driving system, chemical agents are injected through a water injection pump and an intermediate container, and the flow characteristics of the fluid can be observed through the collection system. The limitations of such devices are mainly reflected in the following points:
the first is that the generation conditions of the chemical agent under the high-temperature and high-pressure conditions are not considered, the temperature, pressure and residual oil conditions cannot be monitored in real time, and the chemical agent cannot be enabled to continuously generate the oil displacement agent under the high-temperature and high-pressure simulated formation conditions.
Secondly, the device does not consider the accurate evaluation oil displacement agent ability of flooding, and traditional microcosmic visual displacement model design is too simple, and realizable function is less.
Thirdly, the device does not consider the high-pressure environment of the stratum during displacement, and complex oil reservoir conditions are difficult to realize; this design does not replenish the crude oil in the photolithographic glass sheet in a timely manner.
