Problems solved by technology

[0005] (1) The microemulsion flooding system is prepared on the ground by chemical methods, and then continuously injected into the reservoir for oil displacement, the injection volume is large and the cost is high;
[0006] (2) Due to the continuous adsorption retention and dilution of the microemulsion flooding system during the reservoir migration process, the interaction efficiency between the system and crude oil is reduced;
[0007] (3) After the microemulsion flooding system reacts with crude oil, the emulsification is serious, and there is a problem of difficulty in subsequent demulsification;
[0008] (4) The microemulsion flooding technology has a limited sweep range in the reservoir, which affects the degree of enhanced oil recovery in actual field applications

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of tertiary oil recovery, and in particular relates to a method for oil displacement by using a microorganism in-situ microemulsion system. Background technique [0002] With the increase of global demand for energy, improving the oil recovery rate of oil fields has become one of the research hotspots. Oilfields usually use water flooding to produce oil, but after water flooding, the oil layer still contains about 90% of the oil that cannot be effectively exploited by conventional oil flooding techniques. [0003] In recent years, microemulsion flooding technology has developed rapidly and has shown broad application prospects in tertiary oil recovery. Compared with surfactant flooding, microemulsion can further reduce the interfacial tension of oil and water, and has a good effect of solubilizing crude oil. It can also significantly reduce the viscosity of crude oil, increase its fluidity, and make the cru...
