doi:10.3969/j.issn.1006-6535.2023.01.002

Abstract

Abstract: In order to better understand the remaining oil research methods, a comprehensive summary of remaining oil research methods and applications in the world was conducted by means of investigation and research. The result shows that the analysis methods of sedimentary micro-phase, micro structure and reservoir flow unit take the basic geological research as the starting point and are the basis for remaining oil research; the core analysis method, micro-seepage simulation, physical simulation and nuclear magnetic imaging technology are important tools for micro-remaining oil research and describe the characteristics of remaining oil distribution from the micro perspective; the material balance method and numerical simulation technology are important tools for macro-remaining oil research and are also the basic data for oilfield development adjustment; the logging technology, chemical tracer monitoring method, four-dimensional seismic method and other methods are useful supplements to remaining oil research methods; for the dynamic analysis method, the data obtained from multiple disciplines need to be synthesized and applied, debunked, and verified against each other to obtain accurate remaining oil research results. This result provides reference for the study of the remaining oil in the middle and late stages of development.

Key words: remaining oil, sedimentary micro-phase, micro structure, oil reservoir engineering, indoor experiments, monitoring process, review
