Description
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of hydrodynamics, in particular to a device and a method for testing fluid displacement efficiency in different pore throat size ranges.
Background
In recent years, various visualization techniques (such as magnetic resonance imaging and three-dimensional CT imaging) have been combined with ideal homogeneous porous media experiments (such as glass bead and microfluidic cell experiments) to provide visualization kinetics of invasive fluids. However, in tight sandstone reservoirs, the strong heterogeneity and small pore throat size complicate the dynamic behavior of the invading fluid and the unmiscible displacement process. Due to poor displacement stability, the displacement efficiency of a heterogeneous pore system is lower than that of a homogeneous pore system. Furthermore, the surface chemistry of pore channels can affect the affinity between solid and fluid molecules, making the ideal model unsuitable for studying the invasion mechanism of immiscible fluids in tight sandstones.
In view of the above problems, the nuclear magnetic resonance technology is a non-destructive research means and can accurately reveal the occurrence relationship of fluid in pores, and its importance in the petroleum industry has been increasing year by year in recent years. The nuclear magnetic pore diameter measurement is performed by taking water molecules (hydrogen-containing nuclei) as probes, the minimum pore throat at the nanometer level can be measured, and only when the pore diameter of the water molecules is too small, the nuclear magnetic signals are slightly lost due to too fast relaxation. At present, the nuclear magnetic resonance test mode of the fluid displacement experiment is mainly off-line test, namely after the experiment is finished, the rock core is taken out of the holder and then nuclear magnetic resonance scanning is carried out. Because the nuclear magnetic resonance equipment is very sensitive to the change of the external environment, the nuclear magnetic resonance test is carried out after the sample is taken out, so that larger experimental error is easily caused, and the accuracy of the test result is influenced. At present, scholars at home and abroad develop some online nuclear magnetic resonance measurement experimental devices, but the devices are not widely applied due to the defects of complex structure, difficult operation, nuclear magnetic signal interference and the like. Therefore, there is a need to design and develop an apparatus and method for testing nuclear magnetic resonance, which is easy to operate, has low signal interference and accurate test results.

The device is a device which is designed by developing a fluid-fluid displacement experiment under the control of capillary numerical control of different orders of magnitude by utilizing a nuclear magnetic resonance technology in order to explore the control and influence of the capillary number on a compact reservoir multiphase flow dominant channel, and obtains the displacement efficiency and the T corresponding to the device under constant pressure2Quantitative description displacement mode index data such as cutoff value, average oil saturation and residual oil film thickness, and the like, and the change rule of the dense oil two-phase flow dominant channel is proved on the basis. The research result can provide a design principle for immiscible displacement characteristics required by the novel porous medium, and has great significance for mastering and controlling a water flooding dominant channel, inhibiting unstable flow of an interface, improving water flooding efficiency and the like.
One dimension of the thinking of the invention is the dominant channel, and the dominant channel is always the focus of attention and research in the engineering and academic circles at home and abroad due to the wide application of the dominant channel, so that the research on the dominant channel in the current industry is mainly focused on the dynamic flow of fluids such as conventional reservoir oil and gas, fracture-cavity oil reservoirs, unconsolidated sandstones and the like, and the recognition and influence factor research on the dominant channel in the oil-water two-phase seepage process of a compact reservoir is rarely reported. Experiments are carried out through the device, the influence of the capillary number Ca on the change of the dominant channel in the water flooding process of the compact oil reservoir can be obtained, but the conclusion is slightly deviated from that obtained by a traditional Critical Path Analysis (CPA). The CPA analysis method only considers the influence of a larger pore throat space. When Ca is small, capillary force is dominant, and the invading fluid flows in the direction of the larger throat under the capillary force, and as Ca increases, the total length of the critical path becomes too large so that the viscous resistance becomes too large, so that the flow rate of the fluid in the path of the larger throat decreases and the invading fluid flows in the direction of the decrease in the viscous resistance. In the above research, the percolation path from the ideal model to the heterogeneous porous medium is affected and controlled by Ca, but at present, no experimental device is available to prove how the gradually changing Ca affects the dominant path of two-phase flow in the tight oil reservoir.
The device can utilize heavy water and heavy oil to carry out a two-phase immiscible-phase oil displacement experiment under the conditions of low Ca, medium Ca and high Ca, and combines the nuclear magnetic resonance technology to know how the flow process of immiscible fluid in a compact reservoir affects and controls the dominant channel, and the change rule of the dominant channel of the two-phase flow of the compact oil is ascertained, so that the distribution rule of the residual oil is obtained.
And (3) experimental verification: the influence of different capillary numbers of the tight oil reservoir on the experimental results. At three displacement pressures P ═ 3MPa, 10MPa, and 15MPa, the T corresponding to different waterflooding times for each sample was recorded2Graph curves. About 13-19 times of T with different time intervals are collected in each water injection experiment according to the difference between the pore throat structure and the oil-water displacement amount2Graph curves. Wherein, T2The integral of the curve over the whole frequency spectrum reflects the saturation of pore fluid in the non-miscible displacement process, so that the oil displacement efficiency of each time period can be calculated. Furthermore, since heavy water has no hydrogen nuclei, T2The curve can understand the change of the residual oil saturation along with the transverse relaxation time and record T according to each time2Spectral curve and initial saturated oil T2The area difference of the spectral curve and the abscissa can deduce the fluid recovery ratio of pores with different sizes.
In sample J305-3, saturated oil and nuclear magnetism T were displaced at constant pressures P ═ 3MPa, 10MPa and 15MPa, respectively2The spectral distribution is shown in fig. 4(a, b, c). Comparison T2The spectral amplitude change is known, T after water flooding2The spectrum distribution presents a 'bimodal' state, which indicates that the rock core has strong heterogeneity.
When the displacement pressure Ca ≈ 2.71 × 10-6(P ═ 3MPa), the injected water preferentially enters the macropores, expressed as the relaxation time T2>The amplitude of 100ms is obviously reduced, and the water flooding dominant channel mainly follows the large holeThe throat direction is through. According to T2A cutoff value calculation method for finding a movable fluid T in a residual oil state2The cut-off was 86.975ms and the final displacement efficiency was 52.076%, indicating that a large amount of oil remained in the medium and small pore throats at this pressure.
When the displacement pressure P is 10MPa, T2>The 100ms large hole portion curve substantially coincides with the saturated oil condition, indicating that under this pressure condition, the oil in the large hole can be rapidly displaced to a residual oil condition. At the same time, T2<The curve of the medium and small pores with the length of 100ms obviously deviates to the left compared with that of Ca & lt 2.71X 10-6(P & lt 3MPa), and the descending range of the curve is obvious, which shows that when Ca & lt 1.24X 10-5 & gt, oil in the large pores is rapidly expelled out, and the dominant channel is gradually formed in the throats of the medium and small pores along with the gradual enhancement of the viscous force. Under the control of the capillary number, the movable fluid T is in the state of residual oil2The cut-off value was 75.646ms, indicating that water had entered the medium and small pores and displaced the oil from the space with a displacement efficiency of 55.057%.
When the capillary number is further increased to Ca ≈ 0.74 × 10-4(P ═ 15MPa), the oil in the large pore throat is further expelled, the residual oil amplitude in the small and medium pore throats is further reduced, and the mobile fluid T in the state of residual oil is at this time2The cut-off value was 65.793ms, and the displacement efficiency was 62.732%.
From the water flooding process of sample J305-3, it can be seen that: along with the increase of the number of capillaries, the displacement efficiency is gradually increased, and the movable fluid T in the state of residual oil2Decreasing cut-off value, nuclear magnetic T2The curve is shifted to the left, which shows that the number of capillaries has an important influence on the water flooding dominant channel and makes the capillary gradually transit from flowing mainly along the large pore throat to flowing along the medium and small pore throats.
In summary, the control effect of the capillary number on the water flooding dominant channel can be understood as follows: under the condition of low capillary number, the interfacial tension occupies the main position in the oil-water displacement process, water overcomes the capillary resistance and enters pores, oil is discharged in the form of small liquid drops, and the liquid drops gradually form a spherical shape in the transmission process to reduce the surface area of the liquid drops; when the number of capillaries is large, the viscous force plays a major role, and the fluid droplets are easily deformed during the transport due to the viscous force, and the droplets are stretched into an irregular shape and flow in the throat.
The verification result shows that:
(1) ca with different orders of magnitude has control effect on the fluid dominant channel in the pore throat space of the compact oil reservoir. When Ca is low, the research result is consistent with the traditional critical path analysis method. When Ca is present>10-5During the process, along with the enhancement of the viscous force action, the fluid dominant channel is controlled by the small throat with higher viscous force pressure drop, and the dominant channel formed by water flooding gradually moves towards the direction along which the viscous force is reduced.
(2) Along with the increase of the number of capillaries, the displacement efficiency is increased by 10.6 to 19.5 percent, and T2The cut-off value is continuously reduced, the oil in the middle and small pore throats is continuously driven out, and the average thickness of a residual oil liquid film is reduced by 5.946 mu m to 9.585 mu m.
(3) At low capillary numbers, the invader fluid enters the pore throat, mainly overcoming the capillary resistance, displacing the oil in the pores. As the number of capillaries increases, the viscous force dominates, the displacement rate in the small pores is much greater than that of the large pores, and therefore the invaded fluid enters the small pores and forms a dominant path.
(4) Along with the increase of the number of the capillaries, the saturation of residual oil in the pore throat space within the range of 10-100 ms is reduced to the maximum extent, and the volume of the fluid displaced from the corresponding medium-small pore throat is larger than that of the fluid displaced from the large-pore throat space within the range of more than 100ms, so that the control and influence of the number of the capillaries on the formation of the dominant channel in different scale spaces are further verified.
Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, it will be apparent to those skilled in the art that various changes in the embodiments and/or modifications of the invention can be made, and equivalents and modifications of some features of the invention can be made without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention.
