Abstract
AbstractFor offshore reservoirs with a big bottom water range, the water cut rises quickly and soon enters the ultra-high water cut stage. After entering the ultra-high water cut stage, due to the influence of offshore production facilities, there are few potential tapping measures, so it is urgent to explore the feasibility study of artificial water injection development. The quasi-three-dimensional and two-dimensional displacement experiments are designed using the experimental similarity criteria according to the actual reservoir parameters. Several experimental schemes are designed, fluid physical properties, interlayer distribution, and development mode according to the actual reservoir physical properties. Through the visualization of experimental equipment, the bottom water reservoir is visually stimulated. The displacement and sweep law of natural water drive and artificial water injection in bottom water reservoir with or without an interlayer, different viscosity, and different well spacing is analyzed. The following conclusions are obtained: (1) For reservoirs with a viscosity of 150 cp. The recovery factor after water injection is slightly higher than before water injection. However, the recovery factor is lower than that without injection production. The reason is that the increment of injection conversion is limited to reduce one production well after injection conversion. (2) For reservoirs with a viscosity of 30 cp. The recovery factor after injection is 39.8%, which is slightly higher than 38.9% without injection. (3) For reservoirs with a viscosity of 150 cp. In the case of the interlayer. The recovery factor after injection is 30.7%, which is significantly higher than 24.8% without injection. (4) After the well spacing of the low-viscosity reservoir is reduced, the recovery factor reaches 46.1%, which is higher than 38.9% of the non-infill scheme. After the infill well in a low-viscosity reservoir is transferred to injection, the recovery factor is 45.6%, which has little change compared with non-injection, and most of the cumulative production fluid is water. The feasibility and effect of water flooding in a strong bottom water reservoir are demonstrated. This study provides the basis for the proposal of production well injection conversion and the adjustment of production parameters in the highest water cut stage of a big bottom water reservoir.
