Research on the Adjustment Strategy and Effect Evaluation of Oilfield in the Late Stage of Water Drive with Ultra High Water Cut

Abstract

This article delves into the adjustment strategies for high water cut oil fields in the later stage of water flooding and their impact on oilfield performance. We conducted a series of experiments, including optimizing the layout of injection wells, comparing water quality improvement measures, comparing oilfield management and operation strategies, and applying efficient oil recovery technologies, to analyze and evaluate the effects of different strategies in detail. The experimental results indicate that the production and recovery rate of the oilfield show a stable increase over time, starting from an initial value of approximately 95 units. At the end of the 10th time cycle, this indicator accumulated to around 950 units. This indicates that artificial lifting technology has shown stable performance in improving oilfield performance. The results of this study emphasize the importance of adjusting strategies. By optimizing the layout of water injection wells, improving water quality, optimizing management and operation, and applying efficient oil recovery technologies, it is possible to significantly increase the production and recovery rate of oil fields in the later stage of water flooding with ultra-high water content, reduce the expansion of water shear zones, and achieve better economic benefits and sustainable development. These results are of great significance for practical applications in the field of petroleum engineering.
