Definitions

  • the invention relates to a method for the recovery of hydrocarbons from an oil reservoir.
  • Traditional displacement methods use water to displace oil in a field, effectively pushing the oil to a collector point. Chemicals such as surfactants may be added to alter the flow and mixing properties of the oil/water mixture that is obtained.
  • An alternative method is to use gas to displace oil.
  • a well-known method is to re-inject the natural gas (mostly consisting of methane) produced from the oil field. However, in many cases the availability of the produced gas is limited. Often the produced gas can be sold at competitive market prices, making the method relatively expensive. Nitrogen gas or carbon dioxide gas can also be injected. These gasses have no value as fuel, but are relatively expensive to obtain. It may also be troublesome to maintain the reservoir pressure once a major part of the oil is recovered.
  • Viscous oils or heavy oils are hydrocarbons that are often hard to recover, due to the high viscosity of the oil in the reservoir. Heavy oil typically has a viscosity between 10 and 10,000 cp at reservoir conditions and does not flow at commercial rates unless diluted with a solvent or heated. This difficult-to-produce oil is often left in the reservoir unless the viscosity can be substantially reduced. Steam is a possible injectant that may be used to recover oil that cannot be produced from hydrocarbon reservoirs using more conventional techniques. Only a few reservoirs, all of which are in Venezuela, are steamed at a depth greater than 900 m.
  • the invention provides a method for producing hydrocarbons, comprising the steps of a) providing steam,
  • non-condensable gas such as nitrogenor a mixture of nitrogen and one or more other non-condensable gasses
  • This steam-assisted method showed an improved recovery of hydrocarbons, in particular in reservoirs containing relatively viscous oil (10 to 10,000 cp).
  • the combination of nitrogen and/or carbon dioxide with steam can lead to excellent results in the recovery of oil from difficult-to-produce viscous oil reservoirs.
  • the method as described achieves a more efficient heat transfer to lower the viscosity of the hydrocarbons than known methods. It is postulated the latent heat in the steam mobilizes the viscous oils by thermally lowering viscosity, whereas the gaseous injectant provides additional reservoir energy and assists in transporting the mobilized fraction towards a collection location of the oil reservoir. Additional carrier injectants may be used.
  • the method can also be used continuously or intermittently with other injection methods.
  • the steam provides both a transport medium in the form of water and a thermal heat that lowers the viscosity of hydrocarbons, allowing for more efficient displacement of the hydrocarbons, in particular relatively viscous fractions.
  • the injection mixture may be pre-mixed before injection, or may be achieved by simultaneous injection.
  • steam and nitrogen and/or other injectants such as carbon dioxide are injected simultaneously for a period long enough to be considered continouos.
  • a carrier injectant such as nitrogen and/or carbon dioxide is injected without injecting steam i.e. the two methods of respectively first and second period are used intermittently for a longer period.
  • the temperature of the injection mixture is in the range of 100°C and 300 °C, more preferably in the range of 180-250 °C, when injected into the hydrocarbon reservoir.
  • the heat loss is relatively moderate, and the risk of damaging the well is limited. Higher temperatures lead to higher heat losses and increased operational difficulties.
  • the pressure of the injection mixture is in the range of 50-200 bar when injected into the hydrocarbon reservoir.
  • the injection mixture may be utilized at great depths to achieve heat transfer to hydrocarbons in order to lower the viscosity of relatively viscous oil fractions.
  • the method is performed under combined parameters where the temperature of the injection mixture is in the range of 180°C and 250 °C and the pressure is in the range of 50-200 bar. Contrary to existing methods, an acceptable balance is achieved between the value of the collected hydrocarbons and the heat losses to the overburden, underburden, and the rock itself.
  • the molar ratio of steam and nitrogen gas in the injection mixture is in the range of 1 :0.5 to 1 :5, e.g. in the range of 1 :1 to 1 :2 when injected into the hydrocarbon reservoir, e.g. approximately 1 :1 .
  • These ratios allow for injection with a relatively high latent steam heat with acceptable heat losses, allowing one to operate at relatively great depth at a better energy efficiency than existent steam methods.
  • the molar fraction of steam in the injection mixture is below 80%, or even below 70%, or in the range of 30-60%.
  • the injection mixture comprises carbon dioxide. If the injection mixture comprises a mixture of steam, nitrogen gas and carbon dioxide, the carbon dioxide acts to further reduce the viscosity of the oil. According to some embodiments, the injection mixture is injected at a depth of at least 500 m. At such depths the method as described herein has a distinct advantage compared to existing steam methods, in particular in terms of energy efficiency. At increasing reservoir depth, the operational pressure is higher and the steam becomes thermally less efficient. Pressures at or less than 70 bar are desired because the enthalpy of the steam is nearly constant up to that pressure and the constant enthalpy makes it easier to recover viscous oil. Although the temperature of the steam continues to increase as pressure increases above 70 bar, the enthalpy of steam actually decreases. A pressure of 70 bar typically occurs at reservoir depths of about 800 m. For those reasons, known steam methods have a practical depth limit to formations shallower than 800 m.
  • At least part of the water for providing the steam can be obtained as a combustion product from hydrocarbons.
  • the energy and materials efficiency of the method is further improved, and also decreases the dependence on the external supply of water. This is particularly advantageous in locations where fresh water has a limited availability.
  • At least part of the heat for providing the steam can be obtained as a combustion product from hydrocarbons, most preferably from a gas fraction of the collected hydrocarbons.
  • the use of the heat generated by retrieved hydrocarbons, in particular gas contributes to the at least partial self-sustainability of a system using the method as described herein, and becomes less dependent on external sources of energy for generating heat.
  • both the water and/or heat for providing steam are at least partially obtained from the combustion of hydrocarbons produced by the method.
  • At least part of the nitrogen gas can be obtained in a gas separation process, where oxygen obtained in the same gas separation process can be used for the combustion of hydrocarbons.
  • the injection mixture comprises carbon dioxide
  • at least part of the carbon dioxide can be derived from the combustion of hydrocarbons from the oil reservoirs.
  • the use as an injectant of carbon dioxide produced by combustion of hydrocarbons retrieved from the oil reservoir will improve the self-sustainability and independence from external injectant sources. Optimal self-sustainability and energy-efficiency is achieved in the method as described herein, wherein
  • the injection mixture comprises carbon dioxide, wherein at least part of the carbon dioxide is derived from the combustion of hydrocarbons, wherein at least part of the combusted hydrocarbons are collected from the natural hydrocarbons reservoir.
  • nitrogen and/or carbon dioxide are used in driving hydrocarbons from the oil reservoir
  • volatile hydrocarbon fractions are contaminated with nitrogen and/or carbon dioxide gas.
  • at least part of the hydrocarbon is used as fuel for providing the steam is the nitrogen and/or carbon dioxide contaminated hydrocarbon gas produced from the viscous oil reservoir.
  • Such contaminated hydrocarbon gas is used more efficiently and economically than further processing into purified and decontaminated products, as the separation methane gas and other volatile hydrocarbon fractions from nitrogen or carbon dioxide is relatively energy inefficient.
  • the method as described herein may be performed by a system or a device for the recovery of hydrocarbons from an oil reservoir, comprising
  • a steam generator connected to the source of water, for heating the water to produce hot steam
  • a source of carrier injectant for instance carbon dioxide and/or nitrogen
  • At least one injector coupled to the source of water through the heater, for injecting steam into an oil reservoir
  • - at least one injector coupled to the source of injectant, for injecting injectant into the oil reservoir
  • the device is provided with a controller unit for controlling the injection of injectant and/or steam.
  • Such a device would be used in combination with at least one device for collecting oil reservoir.
  • At least one injector is coupled to the source of water through the heater, and wherein the same injector is also coupled to the source of injectant.
  • the injection can be done through the same channel, allowing for an effective prevention of clogging through the injector and the pathways of injectants and hydrocarbons in the oil reservoir.
  • the heater is connected to a combustor for hydrocarbons to use heat generated by the combustor in the steam generator to heat water and produce hot steam.
  • This coupling may be directly but is preferably done indirectly through a heat exchanger and/or a heat storage where the energy may be temporarily stored. This allows for a better control of the produced heat.
  • the combustor for hydrocarbons comprises a collector unit for collecting water obtained in the combustion of hydrocarbons, wherein the collector unit is connected to the water reservoir.

  • Figure 3 schematically shows a device for the mixing and injection of steam and other injectants.
  • Figure 4 schematically illustrates a device 30 being integrated in the system of figure 1 .
  • This invention represents a significant potential to extend the limit of steam technology by applying Dalton's law of partial pressures to the steam injection process.
  • Dalton's law of partial pressures By adding 1 mole of nitrogen to one mole of steam, we have a resultant mixture of 2 moles of combined steam and non-condensable gas. That will reduce the operating temperature at 150 bar from a completely impractical operating temperature of 340°C down to a much more practical temperature of 275°C. If we mix 2 moles of nitrogen with 1 mole of steam, we get a reduction at 150 bar down to 250 °C, which is clearly within the industry's ability to operate.
  • the total pressure of a mixture of gases is made up by the sum of the partial pressures of the components in the mixture as known from Gibbs'-Dalton's Law of Partial Pressures.
  • the total pressure exerted by a mixture of gases is the sum of the partial pressures of the individual gases
  • the total pressure in a mixture of gases can be expressed as:
  • p(steam) is the partial pressure for steam
  • p(N 2 ) is the partial pressure for nitrogen
  • p (CO 2 ) is the partial pressure for carbon dioxide
  • 1 :0 steam has no inert gasses at all. It is pure, normal steam. 1 :0.5 reduced partial pressure steam has a composition of one mole of H 2 O and one half of a mole of either N 2 or CO 2 (or a mixture of the 2 gasses). This reduces the temperature considerably and also increases the latent heat capacity of the steam.
  • 1 :1 reduced partial pressure steam has a composition of one mole of H 2 O and one mole of either N 2 or CO 2 (or a mixture of the 2 gasses). This further reduces the temperature and also increases the latent heat capacity of the steam.
  • 1 :2 reduced partial pressure steam has a composition of one mole of H 2 O and two moles of either N 2 or CO2 (or a mixture of the 2 gasses). This further reduces the temperature and also further increases the latent heat capacity of the steam.
  • FIG. 1 shows the pressure-enthalpy diagram for water vapor.
  • the dome-shaped area indicates the region where steam is present as a mix of liquid and vapor.
  • the area to the left side of the dome shape is the liquid area, the area to the right side is vapor.
  • the top of the dome is the critical point, above which the fluid becomes supercritical.
  • Figure 2 shows the saturation temperature as a function of pressure for mixtures of steam and nitrogen, ranging from pure steam up to 1 :4 reduced partial pressure steam, with ratios of steam:N 2 of 1 :4, 1 :2, 1 :1 and 1 :0.5.
  • the figure also shows the saturation temperature of steam/carbon dioxide mixtures over the same range, with ratios of steam:CO2 of 1 :4, 1 :2, 1 :1 and 1 :0.5.
  • the impact of adding the non-condensable gas is evident from the figure.
  • the resulting saturation temperature of pure steam at 100 bar is an impractical 310 °C.
  • Utilizing 1 :1 reduced partial pressure steam will reduce the temperature down to a much more practical temperature of 250 °C. If the 1 :2 reduced partial pressure steam is used, the saturation temperature at 100 bar is reduced down to 230 °C, which is well within the industry's ability to operate.
