Problems solved by technology

Several methods have disadvantages. Polymer flooding cannot greatly reduce the interfacial tension between crude oil and water, so the range of enhanced oil recovery is not high enough.
Although the ASP flooding can greatly reduce the interfacial tension, the addition of alkali greatly weakens the viscoelasticity of the polymer, especially the polymer elasticity. In addition, the alkali causes scaling and crude oil emulsification, which affects the normal production of oil wells. Prone to gas channeling, etc.
Moreover, there are a large number of invalid water circulation phenomena in several methods

Abstract

The invention discloses a microsphere profile control and displacement agent used for petroleum exploitation, which is a dispersion system prepared from functional polymer solution and microspheres with diameter of 0.2 to 20 mum by mixing, wherein the microspheres have a concentration of 0.05 to 0.2wt percent. The invention further discloses a combined oil displacement system formed by using the foam profile control and displacement agent and a combined oil displacement method. The oil displacement is achieved by using a combined slug consisting of functional polymers from high viscosity to low viscosity and the microspheres, and is suitable for multiple kinds of anisotropic oil layers to effectively improve oil recovery, reduce ineffective water circulation, and improve economic benefits. Through the effective combination, the system can improve the recovery greatly, improve the total recovery to 70 to 89 percent or above and reduce the oil recovery cost greatly, and can be widely used for tertiary oil recovery.

Description

Technical field: [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of oil recovery, in particular to a chemical flooding system for enhancing crude oil recovery in tertiary oil recovery and a corresponding oil flooding method. Background technique: [0002] The extraction of underground crude oil is mainly primary oil recovery, crude oil is driven from the underground oil reservoir to the surface and extracted. Due to the consumption of natural energy, more crude oil in the oil reservoir after the primary oil recovery is extracted through secondary oil recovery, through water injection Provides the pressure required to drive crude oil from the ground to the surface. Affected by the depositional environment and conditions of the reservoir, the horizontal and vertical permeability distribution of oil layers is not uniform. For example, the variation coefficient of vertical permeability in Daqing Oilfield is mostly about 0.65. In the process of water injection development, m...
