Problems solved by technology

[0004] Conventional sand control methods were used in the early stage of this type of reservoir, and various development methods such as conventional cold recovery, water injection development, steam huff and puff, and steam flooding were adopted successively. Due to the low permeability of the reservoir, the average clay content reached 14%-24%. During the development, the clay swelled and the particles migrated at the same time. More than 30% of the oil wells produced oil samples with oil sludge. The near wellbore area was seriously blocked and the oil well fluid supply was insufficient, resulting in extremely poor development results. The recovery degree of more than 20 years of development was still less than 5.0 %, which means that more than 95% of the crude oil is currently stagnant in the ground, and it is urgent to change the development method to improve the recovery rate of this type of oil reservoir
[0005] At present, relatively mature technologies for developing heavy oil such as steam huff and puff and steam flooding cannot effectively improve the development effect of heavy oil in medium-low permeability and strong water-sensitive marginal reservoirs

Abstract

The invention discloses a method for steam huff and puff heavy oil reservoir development shifted after fracturing sand control. The method comprises the following steps of fracturing sand control in an oil well in heavy oil reservoir; injection of high-temperature steam into the oil well; well soaking; well opening for production. According to the method for the steam huff and puff heavy oil reservoir development shifted after the fracturing sand control, the fracturing sand control technology is used, the reduction of the reservoir stratum permeability of immediate vicinity of wellbore due to clay expansion and the blocking caused by particle migration are removed, after the physical property of the immediate vicinity of wellbore is improved, then the steam huff and puff technology is adopted for mining heavy oil, and the medium-low permeability strong water-sensitive boundary heavy oil reservoir recovery efficiency is improved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to oil recovery technology in oilfields, in particular to a method for developing heavy oil reservoirs by turning to steam huff and puff after fracturing for sand control. Background technique [0002] With the deepening of oil exploration and development, it is more difficult to find high-quality reserves, oil resources are dwindling, and oil prices continue to rise. How to improve the development effect of medium-low permeability and strong water-sensitive marginal heavy oil reservoirs and increase their recovery factors has become an important issue. It is imperative. [0003] Shengli Oilfield is rich in highly sensitive heavy oil reservoir resources, with total reserves exceeding 6000×10 4 t. Reservoirs have the characteristics of low permeability, strong sensitivity, thin reservoirs, and thick crude oil. Medium-low permeability, strong sensitivity, and severe blockage are the keys to restricting the economical and effective ...
