针对辽河油田杜84块馆陶组油层SAGD开发存在顶水下窜风险,通过数值模拟与理论研究相结合的方式,研究顶水下窜对SAGD开发效果的影响,揭示了汽腔与顶水层沟通后汽腔发育程度、累计产油量、油汽比和汽腔压力的变化规律。在数值模拟研究的基础上,基于油藏中多相流体渗流和传热原理,建立了预测顶水下窜速率的理论模型。研究结果表明:当汽腔与顶水层沟通后,SAGD的累计产油量和油汽比将大幅下降,且顶水层压力越高,对SAGD生产效果的影响程度越大;在汽腔与顶水层之间维持一定的隔离段厚度是降低顶水对SAGD后期影响的最有效手段,在目前操作条件下,建议汽腔与顶水层之间的最小隔离段厚度为20 m。该研究为制订顶水稠油油藏SAGD操作技术界限提供了理论依据。
In response to the risk of downward channeling of top water in SAGD development of oil reservoirs in Guantao Formation, Block Du84, Liaohe Oilfield, the influence of the downward channeling of top water on the SAGD development effect was studied in combination with numerical modeling and theoretical studies to discover the changes in the development degree of steam chamber, cumulative oil production, oil-steam ratio and steam chamber pressure after the steam chamber is connected to the top water zone. On the basis of numerical modeling study, a theoretical model was established for predicting the channeling rate of the top water according to the principles of multiphase fluid seepage and heat transfer in oil reservoirs. The results of the study showed that the cumulative oil production and oil-steam ratio in SAGD production were decreased significantly after the steam chamber was connected to the top water zone, and the higher the pressure of the top water zone, the greater the influence on the production effect of SAGD; the most effective method of reducing the influence of top water on the later stage of SAGD was to maintain a certain isolator thickness between the steam chamber and the top water zone; therefore, the minimum isolator thickness is recommended to be 20 m between the steam chamber and top water zone under existing operating conditions. This study provides a theoretical basis for determining the technical limits of SAGD operation in heavy oil reservoirs with top water.
