Abstract:

In order to improve the oil recovery of tight sandy conglomerate reservoir, the tight oil in the tight glutenite core is extracted by the supercritical CO2 based on the reservoir conditions of Mahu tight sandy conglomerate reservoir in Xinjiang. And then, four production parameters affecting tight oil extraction, which are the pressure(7~25 MPa), the temperature(30~60 ℃), the soaking time(30~180 min) and the cycle time(30~180 min), have been optimized and analyzed by the single factor analysis method. The results show that the supercritical CO2 can extract the crude oil from the tight glutenite with relatively good effects, and the extraction rate can reach up to 25.22 %. By the orthogonal design experiment L9(34) with four factors and three levels for the above four production parameters, it is found that the factors influencing the extraction effect of crude oil by supercritical CO2 have primary and secondary order: pressure > immersion time > temperature > circulating time. The optimal parameter scheme is the pressure of 25 MPa, tht temperature of 50 ℃, the soaking time of 120 min, and the cyclic time of 150 min. The application of CO2 to extract crude oil in tight glutenite reservoirs has good application prospects.
