Flooding Control Mechanism of Waterflooding Sweep Control Technology

Abstract

In view of the problems of high permeability, high water cut and high recovery in offshore heterogeneous oil fields, the system including cross-linked polymer gel and flexible microgel gel was prepared indoors, which was used in the experiments of classified combination of waterflooding sweep control technology. The SMG microscopic oil displacement experiment shows that after the SMG system is injected into the model, the speed of the displacement fluid in the large pores decreases and the speed of the small pores increases, thereby effectively improving the oil recovery in the small pores. The long core experiment with multiple pressure points proves that the driving method of that cross-linked polymer gel and flexible microgel gel are alternately injected into core, which can block the dominant channel step by step and start. Then the low permeability area was displaced and the displacement fluid continuously diverted in the core, thus maximizing the purpose of oil recovery. The classification and grading water flooding control technology method provides effective technical support for the optimization of process parameters of offshore oilfield.
