致密低渗透气藏注CO_2提高采收率潜力评价

Potential evaluation on CO_2-EGR in tight and low-permeability reservoirs

CO_2驱替天然气气藏是将CO_2以超临界相态形式驱替天然气,在实现提高天然气气藏采收率的同时也达到将CO_2地质封存的目的。注CO_2提高气藏采收率仍处于探索阶段,目前CO_2驱气提高采收率程度不清楚、适合开展CO_2驱气提高采收率的地质条件不明确、CO_2驱替的合理工作制度也不明确。为此,首先开展长岩心驱替实验,以明确低渗透储层是否能通过注入CO_2提高采收率及提高采收率的程度,实验结果表明,当出口端CO_2含量为10%时,CO_2可提高气藏采收率12%;其次建立超临界CO_2驱替天然气多组分渗流数学模型,通过实验数据验证模型的准确性;然后应用该数学模型,开展超临界CO_2驱替天然气影响因素分析,明确选区条件;最后,以鄂尔多斯盆地大牛地气田为例,优选出DK13井区作为CO_2驱替天然气评价区,并开展注CO_2提高采收率潜力的评价研究。数值模拟计算结果表明:当DK13井区生产井CO_2含量为10%(防腐成本较低)时,CO_2可提高气藏采收率介于8.0%~9.5%,同时可实现31.1%HCPV的CO_2封存量。结论认为,此举既提高了气藏采收率,又能实现对CO_2的地下有效封存,可实现社会效益与经济效益的双赢。

CO2-EGR, i.e. enhanced gas recovery by injecting CO2, is to displace natural gas by injecting CO2 in the supercritical phase. It can both enhance the recovery of gas reservoirs and realize CO2 storage. Currently, this technique is still at its exploring stage. The effect of CO2-EGR is not clarified, the geologic conditions for CO2-EGR are not definite, and the rational working system for COs-EGR is not available. In this paper, the long-core experiment was conducted to determine whether and how much the recovery of low-permeability reservoirs can be enhanced by injecting CO2. According to the experimental results, the recovery can be enhanced by 12% when COs con- tent in produced gas is more than 10%. Moreover, the multi-component seepage mathematical model was built for displacing natural gas by injecting supercritical CO2, and the model accuracy was verified using laboratory data. With this mathematical model, the influence factors for displacing natural gas by injecting supercritical CO2 were analyzed in order to define the conditions for selecting favorable zones. The Well DK13 area in the Daniudi gas field, Ordos Basin, was selected for potential evaluation of CO2-EGR. As indicated by the numerical simulation results, when CO2 content of producing wells in the Well DK 13 area is 10% （with a lower cost for corrosion preven- tion）, the ratio of COs-EGR is 8.0-9.5%, and 31.1% HCPV COs storage can be realized. It is thus concluded that the CO2-EGR technique can enhance the recovery of gas reservoirs and also store COs underground, contributing to the increase of both social and economic ben- efits.
