Abstract

The invention relates to the technical field of heavy oil thermal recovery, and particularly relates to a method for increasing production of heavy oil by steam-nitrogen mixed injection and a specialdevice. The method comprises the following steps of: pressurizing and heating high-purity nitrogen, mixing the pressurized and heated high-purity nitrogen with thermal recovery steam to form thermal recovery mixed fluid, and injecting the thermal recovery mixed fluid into a stratum through a steam injection pipeline for heavy oil recovery. Compared with a water injection steam thermal recovery technology, the method has the advantages that: the injected and heated high-purity nitrogen and water steam mixed fluid can carry heat for reducing the viscosity of crude oil, supplement stratum pressure, increase stratum energy and avoid pressure loss caused by volume reduction after water steam is condensed; and the nitrogen can carry the water steam to diffuse in a wider range, so that the oil displacement effect is improved, and the heavy oil recovery cost is reduced.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of thermal recovery of heavy oil, and relates to a production increasing method and a special device for steam and nitrogen mixed injection heavy oil production. Background technique [0002] Thermal recovery of heavy oil mainly uses the heat carried by thermal fluid to reduce the viscosity of crude oil or ignites crude oil to generate heat to reduce viscosity. Water vapor has the characteristics of large heat capacity, high calorific value, clean and pollution-free, and is widely used in thermal recovery of heavy oil. In the later production process of steam thermal recovery, problems such as difficult recovery, large difference in production degree, increase of heavy components and long drainage period of oil wells have been exposed, which seriously restrict development and production. For deeply buried heavy oil reservoirs, the heat loss is serious during thermal recovery, and the heating radius and swep...
