However, the author found an interesting phenomenon in the process of chemical flooding experiments for many years. If polymer solutions with different properties are used, not only the oil displacement efficiency is different, but also the shape and area of ​​the water cut reduction curve of the produced fluid are also different, and this This situation may to some extent be related to the effective speed, effective period and action limit of polymer flooding in the future.

Abstract

The invention discloses a calculation method for determining contribution of chemical flooding in enhancing a recovery ratio. The calculation method comprises the steps of: (1) taking an inflection point on a chemical flooding water content curve when a water content decreases after a water flooding phase as a starting point, and making an arc surface wherein the starting point locates tangent with the water content curve which smoothly extends upwards to a post-water-flooding phase, so as to obtain a straight line and a tangent point; (2) projecting the starting point and the tangent point to the horizontal axis to obtain two perpendicular lines; calculating an area of a closed region enclosed by the perpendicular lines, the straight line and the horizontal axis, wherein the area is denoted as A1; (3) dividing the closed region into an upper region and a lower region by the water content curve, and calculating an area of the lower region, wherein the area is denoted as A2; (4) and subtracting A2 from A1 to obtain delta A, wherein the delta A indicates the recovery ratio enhanced by chemical flooding. The calculation method is conductive to studying the relation between the reduced area size of the chemical flooding water content curve and oil displacement efficiency through the reduced area obtained by calculation.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a calculation method for determining the contribution of chemical flooding to enhanced recovery. Background technique [0002] Displacement experiment is the most commonly used method to evaluate the oil displacement effect of chemical oil displacement agents, and its oil displacement efficiency is one of the most concerned experimental results. However, the author found an interesting phenomenon in the process of chemical flooding experiments for many years. If polymer solutions with different properties are used, not only the oil displacement efficiency is different, but also the shape and area of ​​the water cut reduction curve of the produced fluid are also different, and this This situation may be related to a certain extent with the effective speed, effective period and effect limit of polymer flooding in the future. Considering that the size of the reduced area of ​​the chemical flooding water cut curve is related to th...
