Abstract:
According to the characteristics of the karstic oil reservoir, the two-and three-dimensional visual physical model of karstic media were constructed to study the displacement mechanisms and the characteristics of remaining oil under water, gas and foam flooding, respectively. Then, the suitability of foam in fractured-cavity media was analyzed. Also the experimental implementation effect of foam-assisted gas flooding was evaluated through a high-pressure and high-temperature 3D model. The results show that the foam-assisted gas flooding can remarkably improve the gas flooding of karstic oil reservoir. It is also found that the N2 foam flooding can increase the recovery of gas flooding by 7%. The viscosity increasing effect and the adjustable flow resistance would be the main mechanism for expanding swept efficiency, which are beneficial to displace the by-pass oil and the remaining oil trapped in the closed fractures. Foam assisted gas flooding as an EOR technology in karstic carbonate reservoir is preliminary feasible.
