随着勘探开发的深入进行,目前新探明的储量近30.9%属于低渗透油藏,其中,具有经济开采价值的低渗透油藏一般存在着大量的裂缝.基质作为主要的储油空间,裂缝作为主要的渗流通道,常规注水开发由于渗透率存在巨大差异,注入水一般沿着高渗透裂缝窜流,水驱后期高含水饱和度的裂缝系统与高含油饱和度的基质系统交织共存,基质岩块中大量剩余油不能被采出,水驱开发效果很差[1].周期注水是该类油藏开采的一种有效方法,它亦称间歇注水、脉冲注水等,其驱油机理是周期性地改变注入量和采出量,在地层中造成不稳定的压力场,使流体在地层中不断重新分布,从而使注入水在层间压力差的作用下发生层间渗流,促进毛管吸渗作用,增大注水波及体积系数及洗油效率,提高采收率.其实质是发挥低渗透率基质系统的毛管力作用及压力周期涨落时基质与裂缝间流体的质量交换作用,使原油从致密的基质系统排入裂缝系统,即影响周期注水效果的因素主要是渗吸毛管力作用和压力周期涨落时基质与裂缝之间的压差.前人对于周期注水的研究主要是通过改变注入端注水量以及设定不同的注采周期形成一定的压力波动,并观察和分析该压力波动对驱油效率的影响,进而结合数值模拟研究了周期注水提高采收率的机理,得出了影响周期注水驱油效果的因素主要是毛管力和压力波动引起的压差[2 5].本文从渗吸实验的角度,通过设定不同的压降幅度和降压速度,来观察其对渗吸作用的影响,从而对周期注水方案的实施进行指导.1 长岩心周期注水实验本文选用80cm 45cm 45cm 的自制长岩心进行周期注水实验.岩心基质渗透率5 10-6m 2,孔隙度24%,为强亲水性岩心.选用长庆原油与煤油1 4配比的模拟油饱和岩心,初始含油饱和度为2007年11月第22卷第6期西安石油大学学报(自然科学版)Journal of Xi an Shiy ou U niversity(N atural Science Edition)Nov.2007V ol.22No.642.13%,含水饱和度为57.87%,模拟地层水矿化度为25000mg /L.实验温度为60 ,该温度下地层水黏度为0.47377mPa s,密度为0.9905g /cm 3;模拟油黏度为0.912m Pa s,密度为0.8016g /cm 3.通过人工切割造出人工水平裂缝,并将岩心放置在一起.按相关实验标准抽真空饱和水,然后用模拟油驱替饱和油.在常规水驱结束后,进行周期注入实验.通过对比不同的周期长度,来分析周期注水过程中采油效果.周期注水前,采用常规注水至含水率达到100%时,转周期注水.此时,岩心的含水饱和度为66.85%,含油饱和度为33.15%.实验分4个周期进行,每个周期间隔一段时间,注水水驱至含水率100%,然后关闭岩心两端一段时间,再注水开采至含水率达到100%,再关闭岩心两端,如此反复几个周期,观察并分析每个周期采收率的变化情况.图1为阶段采收率和累积采收率随周期数的变化曲线.在常规水驱含水率接近100%后,常规注水采油效果很不明显,而采用间歇性周期注水后,累积采收率将有所增加.由阶段采收率曲线可知,第一周期的阶段采收率最大,后续周期阶段采收率有所下降.且在高含水饱和度条件下,周期注水阶段采收率均较小,一般在5%以下.这一实验证实了间歇性周期注水在裂缝性低渗透油藏中的存在作用,但是无法说明其作用机理,因此,本文从渗吸实验的角度进行周期注水机理探究.图1 长岩心周期注水采收率变化曲线2 静态渗吸和动态渗吸实验渗吸效应是指一种润湿相流体在多孔介质中只依靠毛管力作用置换出另一种流体的过程.在低渗透裂缝性砂岩油藏中水驱油的主要机理是渗吸促使裂缝中的水吸入基质而进行采油的.而周期注水过程中,由于压力波动而在裂缝与基质间形成一定的压差,这一压差将会对渗吸效应产生影响.在周期注水过程中,毛管力渗吸与压力波动所引起的压差这两者之间的相互作用过程将是下文讨论的内容.2.1 无压降条件下的静态渗吸实验选用与裂缝性长岩心基质渗透率相同的2.5cm 直径的岩心,用模拟油100%饱和,并放入渗吸容器中,然后分别置于30 和60 的恒温箱中进行静态渗吸实验.实验是在常压下进行的,整个过程中,压力保持不变,即渗吸过程是在毛管力下进行的.图2为2块渗透率接近的岩心在常压和不同温度条件下的静态渗吸实验,从图中可以看到,30 时,渗吸采收率为33.12%;温度为60 时,渗吸采收率为61.61%.通过近似计算,30 时平均渗吸速度为0.322 10-4m/d,60 时的平均渗吸速度为7.22 10-4m/d.即高温下渗吸采收率要明显高于低温下的采收率,且高温下达到渗吸最大采收率的时间要比低温下的短,高温下渗吸速度大于低温下的渗吸速度.另外,在无压降条件下,或处于压力平衡的环境下,其渗吸效应具有较强作用,表明毛管力对提高基质采收率具有较强作用.图2 不同温度条件下静态渗吸实验曲线2.2 不同压降条件下的动态渗吸实验针对周期注水特点,设计5组不同实验.选用5个高压中间容器,每个容器内放置3块100%饱和模拟油的2.5cm 直径的岩心,以防止单块岩心由于计量和操作引起实验误差.分别将5个中间容器加压至0.1MPa 、5MPa 、10MPa 、20M Pa 、30MPa,计量渗吸油量周期为24h.即在每24h 时,将每个中间容器压力瞬间降至0.1MPa,不同的瞬间降压幅度对应于不同的降压速度,同时,也将会在岩心内外形成不同的压差,这将会对渗吸作用造成不同的影响.图3,图4即不同压力及压降条件下的渗吸采收率曲线.从图3中可以看出,压力波动过程中的渗57 王锐等:裂缝性低渗油藏周期注水与渗吸效应实验吸采收率增加初期较快,后期逐渐变得平缓.从图4中可以看到,随着瞬时降压幅度的增大,渗吸采收率先减小后增大,即瞬时降压对渗吸作用的影响不是单调变化的.实验周期为24h,降压条件是在瞬间进行的,即在降压的瞬间,可以在岩心内外形成一定的压差,从而对渗吸效应产生影响.当压降从0MPa 变至5MPa 时,采收率变化不大;当压降从5MPa 变化至10MPa 时,采收率降低;当压力从10MPa 升高时,采收率增大.由此可见,不同的压力和不同的降压速度对采收率的影响是先减小后增大的趋势.图3不同压力情况下渗吸曲线图4 不同瞬时压降条件下渗吸采收率曲线岩心内外压力变化过程如下所述,即当环境压力处于平衡状态时,岩心内外的压差为油水界面张力引起的毛细管力.在毛管力的作用下,水相逐步渗入到毛细管中,此时的压差由毛管力、水相黏滞力、油相黏滞力组成.当环境压力瞬时改变时,由于在致密基质岩心中压力传播具有延迟性,而导致在岩心内外产生一定的压差,将此压差定义为延迟压差,延迟压差的大小将对渗吸效应产生很大影响.此时压差由毛管力、水相黏滞力、油相黏滞力和延迟压差组成.实验过程中,在温度不变的条件下,油、水两相的黏滞力保持不变.则当压力变化时,油水界面张力和延迟压差对岩心内外的压差产生影响,以及由于压差的存在,岩石和流体物性也会发生相应的变化.当压力为常压条件,即无压降产生时,岩心渗吸过程是在毛管力作用下进行的.当压降幅度较小时,如实验从0MPa 变为5MPa 时,降压过程中产生的延迟压差较小.此时,岩石物性基本不发生变化,基质内流体膨胀较小,故采收率变化较小.而当压力从10MPa 开始下降时,较高压时油水界面张力减小,降压过程中引起的延迟压差增大,且受力方向与毛管力方向相反.同时,由于延迟压差较小,岩石及流体性质变化较小,则采收率将较5MPa 时有所降低.当压力继续增大时,毛管力继续减小,而此时降压引起的延迟压差大于毛管力的作用,即延迟压差能够克服界面张力的作用,而将原油从岩心中排驱出来.同时,由于较大压差的存在,使得岩心开始膨胀,即孔、渗参数得到改善.基质内原油黏度降低,体积膨胀,也促使原油从基质中渗出来.上述因素均促使渗吸采收率急剧增大,即在较高降压幅度条件下,瞬间延迟压差成为基质内原油的驱动力,将其排驱出来.同时,瞬间压降造成了岩心孔隙结构的部分变形,以及原油降黏膨胀,导致渗吸采收率增大.由无压降条件下渗吸实验可知,渗吸作用主要是由毛管力和黏滞力引起的,且当温度升高时,流体黏度降低,相应黏滞力减小,即渗吸阻力减小,则渗吸速度和采收率均增大.由不同压降条件下的渗吸实验可知,不同压降及降压速度条件下,在岩心内外可以形成一定的延迟压差,且这种压差将会对渗吸效应产生一定的抑制和促进作用.当压降幅度较小时,延迟压差较小,对渗吸作用影响较小;当压降幅度达到一定的值时,延迟压差将会平衡毛管力及黏滞力的作用,而对渗吸效应产生一定的抑制作用;当压降较大时,延迟压差将克服毛管力及黏滞力的作用,而将基质中的原油排驱出来.同时,由于基质中流体及岩石弹性能的释放,导致采收率进一步增加.综合两组实验可知,压降幅度必须保持在较小或很大的范围内,才能充分发挥渗吸和弹性效应的作用.而对于实际低渗透油藏开采来说,岩心压力敏感性较强,即当孔隙压力降低较大时,由于上覆岩层压力基本不变,则有效上覆压力增大,从而引起岩心渗透率损失,对岩心物性造成一定的伤害,进而影响原油的产出[6].综上所述,必须保持压降在较低范围内,本实验为5M Pa 以内,渗吸效应较强,且由于压降较小,岩心压敏性较弱,此时可得到最终的综合采收率较大,即周期注水的实施必须综合考虑渗吸效应、弹性作用及岩心的压敏性,压力波动幅度必须保持58 西安石油大学学报(自然科学版)较低水平,才能获得较大采收率.3 结 论(1)长岩心驱替实验中,当含水率很高时,水驱效果较差,此时采用间歇周期注水,能起到一定的效果.(2)常压下的静态渗吸实验表明,渗吸效应是由毛管力与黏滞力引起的,当温度升高时,毛管力变化较小,流体黏度急剧降低,黏滞力减小,渗吸速度增加,渗吸采收率增大.(3)不同的压力及压降速度对采收率的影响是先减小后增大的趋势.即当降压幅度较小时,其降压引起的延迟压差对渗吸作用影响较小;而当降压幅度达到一定值时,延迟压差会一定程度抑制毛管力的作用,导致渗吸采收率减小;当降压幅度较大时,延迟压差会克服毛管力的作用,将基质中的原油排驱出来,渗吸采收率急剧增大.(4)在低渗透油藏中,周期注水必须保持较低的压降幅度才能得到较高的渗吸采收率,当压降较大时,岩心的压力敏感性会不同程度地抑制驱油效果,导致最终采收率降低.参考文献:[1]
