Water-Rock Interaction in Tarim Basin: Constraints from Oilfield Water Geochemistry

Oilfield waters from Cenozoic and Mesozoic terrestrial and Paleozoic marine environments in the Tarim Basin show no obvious difference in water chemistry except Br and isotopic compositions. The Paleozoic marine strata have higher Br concentrations than the terrestrial sediments, and the lack of obvious relationship between Br and Ⅰ suggests that Br is not, for the most part, derived from the degradation of organic matter. The oilfield waters are characterized by high TDS (total dissolved solids), ranging from 120000mg/L to 320000mg/L,relatively low Mg, high Ca, Sr, and CF relative to Br of evaporating seawater, suggestive of enhanced water-rock interaction. (Al (organic acid anions) concentrations are generally lower than 1500 mg/L with high values occurring over the temperature range from 95℃ to 140℃ ,in the Cambrian to Jurassic systems, and nearby unconformities. Organic acids are considered to be generated mainly from thermal maturation of kerogens during progressive burial of the Jurassic-Triassic and Cambrian-Ordovician systems, biodegradation of crude oils nearby unconformities, and thermochemical sulfate reduction in part of the Cambrian and Ordovician strata.High Al concentrations up to 3 mg/L to 5. 5 mg/L tend to occur in the waters of high OAA or petroleum- bearing intervals, suggesting the presence of organic complexing agents. Calculation by SOLMINEQ. 88 with updated database shows that AlAc2+ may account for more than 30%of the total Al. IsotoPic measurements (δD, δ18O) provide evidence for the following types of waters: diagenetically- modified connate meteoric water from the Jurassic and Triassic strata;diagenetically-modified connate marine water from the Cambrian and Ordovician strata; subaerially-evaporated water from the Cenozoic and Cretaceous strata; and mixed meteoric-evaporated or/and diagenetically modified connate water from the Carboniferous strata and reservoirs adjacent to the J/C and T/C unconformities. Those waters with very negativeδD values from -51. 30‰. to - 53. 80‰ (SMOW) and positive δ18 O values from 2. 99‰ to 4. 99‰(SMOW) in the continuous burial of the Cambrian-Ordovician system are explained to have resulted from hydrocarbon-water and water-rock interactions.

A PRELIMINARY EVALUATION MODEL FOR RESERVOIR HYDROCARBON-GENERATING POTENTIAL ESTABLISHED BASED ON DISSOLVED HYDROCARBONS IN OILFIELD WATER

A large number of oilfield water samples were analyzed in this work. Research on the relationship between the concentrations and distribution of dissolved hydrocarbons suggested that the contents and composition of dissolved hydrocarbons varied with the hydrocarbon-generating potential of reservoirs. The concentrations of dissolved hydrocarbons were low in dry layers, water layers and gas-water layers, but high in gas reservoirs and oil reservoirs, especially in gas reservoirs with condensed oil. Series of carbon-number alkanes were usually absent in oilfield water from dry layers, water layers and gas-water layers but abundant in oilfield water from oil-water reservoirs, gas reservoirs and oil reservoirs, whose carbon numbers varied most widely in oil reservoirs and least in gas reservoirs. A preliminary evaluation model for reservoir hydrocarbon-generating potential was established based on the characteristics of dissolved hydrocarbons in oilfield water to assist hydrocarbon exploration.

Geochemical Characteristics of Oilfield Waters fromthe Turpan Depression, Xinjiang and Their Petroleum Geological Significance

This paper, based on the fundamental inorganic chemical and organic geochemical characteristics of oilfield waters from the Turpan Depression, presents the contents of organic matter, the distribution of low-carbon fatty acids and the contents of aromatic hydrocarbons as well as their principal ultraviolet absorption spectral and fluorescence spectral characteristics in oilfield waters from different oil/gas-bearing areas. The oil/gas reservoirs in this depression are classified in terms of their conserving conditions. In addition, the paper also discusses the chemical characteristics of oilfield waters from different types of oil/gas reservoirs with an emphasis on the characteristics of their localization in the γ_Na/γCa-γNa/γ_Cl correction diagram. On this basis it is attempted to expound the fundamental geochemical characteristics of oilfield waters from the Turpan Depression and their geological significance.

Influences of water treatment agents on oil-water interfacial properties of oilfield produced water

The emulsion stability of oilfield produced water is related to the oil-water interfacial film strength and the zeta potential of the oil droplets. We investigated the effects of water treatment agents （corrosion inhibitor SL-2, scale inhibitor HEDP, germicide 1227, and flocculant polyaluminium chloride PAC） on the stability of oilfield produced water. The influence of these treatment agents on oil-water interfacial properties and the mechanism of these agents acting on the oilfield produced water were studied by measuring the interfacial shear viscosity, interfacial tension and zeta electric potential. The results indicated that the scale inhibitor HEDP could increase the oil-water interfacial film strength, and it could also increase the absolute value of the zeta potential of oil droplets. HEDP played an important role in the stability of the emulsion. Polyaluminum chloride （PAC） reduced the stability of the emulsion by considerably decreasing the absolute value of the zeta potential of oil droplets. Corrosion inhibitor SL-2 and germicide 1227 could decrease the oil-water interfacial tension, whereas they had little influence on oil-water interfacial shear viscosity and oil-water interfacial electricity properties.

Corrosion Behavior of Pipeline Steel in Oilfield Produced Water under Dynamic Corrosion System

In order to predict the corrosion trendency of X100 pipeline steel in flowing oilfield produced water,the effect of flow rate on the corrosion behavior of X100 pipeline steel was studied under general dynamic condition and simulated real working condition at the flow rate of 0.2,0.4,and 0.6 m·s^(-1).Potentiodynamic polarization curves and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy were used to study the corrosion behavior of X100 steel.Energy dispersive spectroscopy,X-ray diffraction and scanning electron microscopy were used to analyze corrosion product composition and micromorphology.The experimental results show that the corrosion is more serious under simulated real working conditions than that under the general dynamic conditions.In any case the corrosion current density increases with the increase of the flow rate,and the total impedance value decreases.The corrosion products include Fe_(3)O_(4),Fe_(2)O_(3),and FeOOH.The mass transfer and electrochemistry were simulated by flow coupled in COMSOL software.The multiphysical field coupling simulation results are closer to the engineering practice than the single flow field simulation,and similar results from the experiments were obtained.Both experimental and simulation results reveal that the higher flow rate is,the more serious corrosion appear and the more corrosion products accumulate.By combining experimental and COMSOL simulation data,the corrosion process model of X100 steel was proposed.

Hydrogeochemical Simulation of Water-Rock Interaction Under Water Flood Recovery in Renqiu Oilfield, Hebei Province, China

Hydrogeochemical simulation is an effective method to study water-rock interaction. In this paper, PHREEQM was used for the simulation of water-rock interaction under water flooding in the Renqiu Oilfield. Calculated results revealed that when fresh water was injected into the reservoir, Cl\+- and Na\++ would decrease without involvement in water-rock interaction. Erosion to dolomite will lead to an increase in Ca\+\{2+\}, Mg\+\{2+\} and CaHCO\++\-3. Saturation index of calcite and aragonite decreased first and then increased. With fresh water accounting for up to 70%, mixed water has the strongest erosion ability. Deoiled water has erosion ability under high temperature and high partial pressure of CO\-2. Pyrite and gypsum were sensitive to deoiled water, which can cause the dissolution of pyrite and the precipitation of gypsum. Micrographs revealed a great deal of information about water-rock interaction.

Method of moderate water injection and its application in ultra-low permeability oil reservoirs of Yanchang Oilfield, NW China

To explore the method of improving development effect and solving the problem of water breakthrough and water out for ultralow permeability fractured reservoirs, an indoor evaluation method of dynamic imbibition for fracture-matrix system was established taking the Chang 8 reservoir in southern Yanchang Oilfield as a research target. Key factors for the imbibition effect were obtained, an imbibition's rate expression was obtained, a model considering the double effects of imbibition-displacement was built and optimal injection and production parameters for the research area were obtained as well. The results show that an optimum displacement rate that maximizes the oil displacement efficiency exists in the water displacing oil process, and the optimal displacing rate becomes smaller as the permeability decreases. The imbibition displacement efficiency increases as the reservoir quality index and water wettability index of rock become bigger. But the larger the initial water saturation or oil-water viscosity ratio is, the smaller the imbibition displacement efficiency is. The optimal injection-production ratio for the Chang 8 reservoir of southern Yanchang Oilfield is 0.95, and the predicted recovery is 17.2% when the water cut is 95%, it is 2.9% higher than the recovery of conventional injection-production ratio 1.2. By using the moderate water injection technique based on the double effects of imbibition-displacement mechanism, the water injection development effect for the ultra-low permeability fractured reservoirs can be improved significantly.

油田采出水处理技术的研究进展

在油田开采中,采出水的直接排放会对环境造成影响,通常需要经过深度处理后再排放或者回用。而油田采出水含油量高且含有高浓度有机物和悬浮物,处理难度大。水质特性、处理技术以及处理设备等都会对处理效果产生直接影响,因此,有必要对上述问题进行深入研究。本文对现有研究中油田采出水的水质特性、新型的膜分离技术以及气浮工艺进行了总结,分析了各类处理技术研究现状,并对今后发展趋势进行了展望。

Sandbody architecture of the bar finger within shoal water delta front:Insights from the Lower Member of Minghuazhen Formation,Neogene,Bohai BZ25 Oilfield,Bohai Bay Basin,East China

Core, well logging and seismic data were used to investigate sandbody architectural characteristics within Lower Member of Minghuazhen Formation in Neogene, Bohai BZ25 Oilfield, and to analyze the sedimentary microfacies, distribution and internal architecture characteristics of the bar finger within shoal water delta front. The branched sand body within shoal water delta front is the bar finger, consisting of the mouth bar, distributary channel over bar, and levee. The distributary channel cuts through the mouth bar, and the thin levee covers the mouth bar which is located at both sides of distributary channel. The bar finger is commonly sinuous and its sinuosity increases basinward. The distributary channel changes from deeply incising the mouth bar to shallowly incising top of the mouth bar.The aspect ratio ranges from 25 to 50 and there is a double logarithmic linear positive relationship between the width and thickness for the bar finger, which is controlled by base-level changing in study area. For the bar finger, injection and production in the same distributary channel should be avoided during water flooding development. In addition, middle–upper distributary channel and undrilled mouth bar are focus of tapping remaining oil.

埕岛东区水淹油藏加密水平井合理生产压差研究

埕岛油田东区馆上段Ng4^(2)层油藏历经多年注水开发,已形成较强水淹,在井区调整加密水平井大幅提高产能的开发需求下,既要保证油井较高的产能和采油速度,又要在平台寿命期内合理控制含水上升达到较高的采收率,需要优化合理的生产压差。通过建立埕岛东区的油藏物理模型,设立六种不同生产压差分别模拟评价含水率变化特征、产液量变化特征、采出程度变化特征,并开展综合开发效果评价。结果显示,在埕岛海上平台开发寿命周期内最优生产压差为1.2 MPa,并在251GB-P1、251GB-P2等井的矿场实践中取得了较好的开发效果。研究认为,在水淹油藏通过优化生产压差实现提升产油量、提高采油速度和最终采出程度的目的是可行的。

大庆油田二类B油层聚驱剖面动用规律及其改善

大庆油田聚合物驱应用规模不断扩大,开发对象转向性质较差的二类B油层,现有聚合物与油层适应性不强,剖面动用规律不明确,不同地区聚驱开发效果差异较大。针对上述问题,应用矿场剖面数据统计和室内实验分析,研究了二类B油层剖面动用规律和剖面改善方法。结果表明:从吸水层动用情况来看,喇嘛甸地区由于发育厚层河道砂,油层物性好,油层有效厚度动用比例最高,油层以多次动用为主,突进层多,相对吸液量高;萨中和萨南地区河道砂发育规模小,薄砂层较多,物性差,有效厚度动用比例较低,但聚驱后,有效厚度动用比例相比水驱分别增大了12.5%和15.4%,渗透率为100~300 mD的储集层吸入剖面改善明显;从未吸水层动用来看,二类B油层纵向非均质性强,导致层间有效厚度未动用比例较高,剖面改善应以均衡层间动用为主;抗盐聚合物高、低质量浓度交替注入可延缓含水率上升时间,增加低渗透层吸液量,聚驱采出程度提高显著。在喇嘛甸北北块A区开展了DS1200抗盐聚合物和高、低质量浓度交替注入试验,降水增油效果好,可为大庆油田二类B油层聚驱剖面改善提供技术指导。

同位素注入剖面测井解释智能化批量处理技术的实现与应用

同位素注入剖面测井是水驱油田了解各小层吸水状况的主要监测手段,该测井方法在中国油田的年测井工作量在3万井次左右,在注水油藏动态监测中占主导地位。传统的同位素注水剖面测井结果依赖人工解释,工作效率低、工作量大且多解性强,容易受到不同分析员人为因素影响,已经无法满足日益增长的生产需求。运用大数据监测和机器学习等技术,解决了基础数据录入、原始数据解编、深度匹配、工具识别、曲线叠合、综合评价等关键环节技术难题,形成了智能化批量处理技术。通过在CIFLog测井解释平台上的集成运行,单井处理时间从30~60min缩短到30s,人工干预率低于12%,验证了该处理流程及算法的有效性。
