Description

Dense oil reservoir starting pressure gradient electric simulation system and calculation method
Technical Field
The invention relates to an oil gas seepage technology, in particular to a dense oil reservoir starting pressure gradient electric simulation system and a computing method.
Background
The pore throat of the reservoir layer of the compact oil reservoir is fine, the pore structure is complex, the interaction between the fluid and the pore interface is obvious, and the liquid molecules are tightly adsorbed on the solid surface to form a fluid boundary layer which has a certain thickness and does not flow. The boundary layer thickness varies with the pressure gradient, forming the low-speed fidaxy percolation characteristics of a tight reservoir. When the displacement pressure gradient is less than a certain critical value, the dense oil reservoir pores are completely filled by a non-flowing fluid boundary layer, fluid cannot flow, and only pore fluid can participate in flow above the pressure gradient, and the critical pressure gradient is the starting pressure gradient. Therefore, the method for accurately measuring the starting pressure gradient has important significance for researching the low-speed non-Darcy seepage mechanism of the tight oil reservoir.
The current common measurement method for starting the pressure gradient is an actual core flow experiment method, including a flow-pressure difference method, an unsteady state method, a capillary balance method, an unsteady state displacement-capillary method and the like. The flow-differential pressure method is to measure a seepage curve by a steady-state method, and then fit the curve to obtain a starting pressure gradient. The unsteady state method is an experimental method for measuring pressure in unsteady state seepage, and on a logarithmic graph, the starting pressure gradient of the core is obtained by fitting measured pressure data and a theoretical dimensionless pressure curve. The capillary balance method adopts a communicating vessel principle, when the pressure gradient is measured and started, a capillary is connected to the inlet end and the outlet end of the core, the fluid at the inlet end flows to the outlet end through the core due to the action of gravity, and after the liquid levels at the two ends are fully balanced, a height difference is finally maintained, wherein the height difference is the minimum starting pressure value of the sample. The unsteady state displacement-capillary method is that the outlet end of the core holder is filled with liquid, then the liquid is injected in micro-flow, and the pressure at the moment is the minimum starting pressure when the liquid level at the outlet end of the core starts to move.
In the aspect of measuring the starting pressure gradient in the aspect of core flow experiments, the prior art comprises the steps of measuring the liquid flow at different pressures by utilizing a micro-flowmeter and a pressure sensor so as to calculate the starting pressure, and the essence of the method is that a differential pressure-flow method is used; and combining differential pressure-flow core test with theoretical calculation to simulate starting pressure.
The core flow experiment can be carried out by adopting an actual oil reservoir core, is relatively close to the actual geological condition, and can directly measure more accurate change rules of yield, pressure and the like, but the method has the following defects: firstly, the small core displacement pressure difference is low, the flow rate of a liquid charge pump is small, the experimental accuracy is greatly dependent on the accuracy of an experimental instrument, the pressure difference and the flow rate need to be monitored accurately to the levels of 0.001MPa and 0.0001ml/min, and expensive experimental equipment support is needed; second, the experiment requires multiple sets of data to be measured at lower displacement pressures, displacement flows, resulting in a lengthy experimental period.
In the aspect of measuring the starting pressure gradient by an electric simulation experiment, the prior art comprises the steps of simulating the starting pressure by a diode and simulating cracks by a copper sheet, wherein the potential change amplitude is larger and the relative error is larger in the experimental process.
Therefore, it is necessary to develop a dense oil reservoir start-up pressure gradient electric simulation system and a calculation method.
The information disclosed in the background section of the invention is only for enhancement of understanding of the general background of the invention and should not be taken as an acknowledgement or any form of suggestion that this information forms the prior art already known to a person skilled in the art.
