Abstract:

CO2 huff-n-puff in tight oil reservoirs can enhance oil recovery and store CO2. The existing researches on CO2 huff-n-puff flooding and CO2 storage in tight oil reservoirs rarely take parameters related to CO2 storage capacity as evaluation indicators. Taking typical tight reservoirs in the seventh member of Yanchang formation (Chang 7 member) in the Ordos basin as an example, through numerical simulation, six injection-production parameters (huff-n-puff timing, injection rate, injection time, soaking time, production time and huff-n-puff cycle) and three evaluation indicators (oil exchange rate, CO2 retention coefficient, and flooding-storage synthesis coefficient) were selected. Using single-factor control variable method and multi-factor orthogonal experimental design, together with range analysis method, the sensitivities of the six injection-production parameters to three evaluation indicators were analyzed. The results suggest that in the CO2 flooding-dominant stage, it is recommended to set an injection time of 30-60 d, injection rate of 0.001 0-0.003 0 PV/d, and huff-n-puff timing of less than 0.5 a; in the CO2 storage-dominant stage, it is recommended to set a production time of 30-230 d, injection rate of 0.007 5-0.010 0 PV/d, and injection time of 145-180 d; and in the synergistic optimization stage of CO2 flooding and storage, it is recommended to set an injection time of 30-65 d, huff-n-puff timing of 6 months earlier, and soaking time of 10-20 d.
