Problems solved by technology

At the same time, dissolved gas is a non-condensable gas, which has good heat insulation effect, which will hinder the heat transfer from steam to oil phase, weaken the heating effect of steam on crude oil, limit the expansion of SAGD steam chamber, and affect the development effect of SAGD
However, there is no research on this method

Abstract

The invention discloses a method for extracting foam type super-heavy oil. The method includes the steps that drilling is conducted after the depths of a first horizontal well and a second horizontalwell are determined in the vertical direction in a to-be-extracted foam type super-heavy oil reservoir, and well completion is carried out on the first horizontal well and the second horizontal well in a thermal recovery mode, wherein the first horizontal well is located within a predetermined distance range below the second horizontal well, and the first horizontal well is close to the bottom ofthe oil reservoir with the distance being larger than one meter; depletion development is carried out at the same time by taking the first horizontal well and the second horizontal well as the producing wells; stratum pressure of the foam type super-heavy oil reservoir is obtained, and when the stratum pressure is lowered to preset pressure, a cold production period is finished, and the second horizontal well is replaced as a steam injection well; and steam is directly injected into the steam injection well, and the first horizontal well is used as the producing well for direct production. Bymeans of the method for extracting foam type super-heavy oil, the development effect of extracting of foam type super-heavy oil by utilizing SAGD can be improved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of oil exploitation, in particular to a method for exploiting foam-type super-heavy oil. Background technique [0002] The descriptions in this section merely provide background information related to the disclosure in this application and may not constitute prior art. [0003] The crude oil in the foam oil type super heavy oil reservoir has high relative density, high viscosity, high asphaltene content, high heavy metal content, and high original dissolved gas-oil ratio, and foam oil flow can be formed during underground cold recovery. "Foamy oil" is a phenomenon of dispersed gas-liquid two-phase flow that occurs during the depletion of heavy oil reservoirs. Due to the high initial dissolved gas-oil ratio of foamy oil-type super-heavy oil reservoirs, underground crude oil can form foamy oil flows. Specifically, "foamy oil" means that the dissolved gas is not separated from the crude oil immediately after ...
