Problems solved by technology

[0003] In the existing water injection development method of ultra-low permeability water injection development reservoirs, the water flooding recovery rate is below 25%, and there are still a large amount of geological reserves that cannot be converted into crude oil production, resulting in a huge waste of oil resources
Polymer flooding is currently a relatively advanced enhanced oil recovery technology, which can increase oil recovery by more than 10%, but there is still a large amount of crude oil left in the ground that cannot be recovered, and it can only be used for oil recovery with a permeability greater than 50×10 -3 um 2 The middle and high permeability reservoirs are not suitable for ultra-low permeability reservoirs. How to improve the water flooding effect of ultra-low permeability reservoirs and improve the water flooding recovery of reservoirs is a very difficult task. It is urgent to develop new Technical method

Abstract

The invention relates to a method for improving the oil-water displacement recovery ratio of a low-permeable oil reservoir, which comprises the following steps of: preparing a mixed aqueous solution containing 400-4000mg / L of surfactant and 200-2000mg / L of foam stabilizer from the surfactant, the foam stabilizer and water; and mixing the mixed aqueous solution and a gas according to a volume ratio of the solution to the gas of 1: (0.1-2), and injecting into the oil reservoir through a water injection well, wherein the injection time is 90-120 days. The surfactant is selected from one or two of branched sodium alkybenzenesulfonate, alkyl polyoxyethylene ether sodium sulfate, alkyl polyoxyethylene ether sodium carboxylate, fatty alcohol ether sodium sulfate and cocoamido propyl hydroxy sulfobetaine; the foam stabilizer is sodium carboxymethylcellulose; and the gas is air. According to the invention, after the water content of the extracted solution reaches 60 percent, the oil displacement efficiency is improved by 20 percent compared with waterflooding, and the water content is reduced by 13-27 percent.

Description

Technical field: [0001] The invention relates to an ultra-low permeability (permeability 1~10×10 -3 um 2 ) water flooding to develop oilfields with medium and high water cut periods to stabilize oil and control water (or increase oil and reduce water), improve the effect of water flooding, and increase the recovery factor of water flooding. Background technique [0002] Ultra-low permeability and low pressure reservoirs have low permeability (1~10×10 -3 um 2 ), the reservoir pressure is low (the pressure coefficient is about 0.7), and the water injection development method is adopted. After entering the medium-high water-cut development period of the oil field, how to improve the effect of water flooding, increase the production of a single well, stabilize oil and control water (or increase oil and reduce water), and improve the recovery rate of water flooding of reservoirs have always been the research and tackling problems of oilfield development technicians. question....
