Problems solved by technology

However, to the CO 2 The mixing of hydrocarbon gas in the medium requires a large amount of hydrocarbon gas mixed in, and it is difficult to carry out this application in oilfields lacking hydrocarbon gas, and the hydrocarbon gas injected into the reservoir may be mixed with CO during the displacement process. 2 Separation occurs, resulting in CO 2 The MMP of flooding increases, which cannot meet the requirements of miscible flooding

Abstract

The invention provides a supercritical CO2 microemulsion and a method for improving an oil recovery factor. The supercritical CO2 microemulsion comprises the following raw materials in percentages by weight: 4.5*10<-3>wt% to 16.5*10<-3>wt% of a surfactant, 12.0wt% to 14.5wt% of a cosurfactant, 0.2wt% to 1.8wt% of water, and 83.7wt% to 87.8wt% of CO2, wherein the surfactant is one of 2-(1-ethyl-2-methyl-1-pentyl) sodium sulfosuccinate or a homolog of 2-(1-ethyl-2-methyl-1-pentyl) sodium sulfosuccinate, polyethylene glycol-2,6,8-trimethyl-4-nonyl ether, perfluorinated alkyl polyoxyethylene, polyacrylic acid 1,1-perfluorooctyl dihydrogen phosphate, polydimethylsiloxane, and polyacrylic acid 1,1-dihydrogen perfluorinated octyl methyl ester-b-polyoxyethylene; and the cosurfactant is ethanol, propyl alcohol, butanol, pentanol or hexyl alcohol. The invention also provides a method for improving an oil recovery factor. The method comprises a step of improving the oil recovery factor by adopting the supercritical CO2 microemulsion.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a kind of supercritical CO 2 The microemulsion and the method for improving oil recovery belong to the technical field of improving oil recovery. Background technique [0002] Petroleum plays an extremely important role in the economic development of the country. However, since oil is a non-renewable resource, with the deepening of exploration and development, the difficulty of mining gradually increases. Therefore, how to enhance oil recovery is one of the problems that must be solved in the process of oil and gas field development. [0003] The average recovery rate of my country's developed oil fields is only about 33%, and there is still a large amount of crude oil left in the ground, which needs to be exploited by "tertiary oil recovery" technology. Beginning in the 1950s, CO 2 Because of its own unique performance, as an important means of oil recovery, considerable research and application have been carried o...
