In order to increase the separate-layer water injection effect of heterogeneous sandstone reservoir in Huabei Oilfield, improve the qualified rate of water injection and reduce the workload of sealing, testing and adjustment, the wireline intelligent separate-layer water injection technology was used. This technology can remotely read the downhole water injection flow, temperature, pressure which was collected by the intelligent water distributor in real time on the ground. And it also can adjust the nozzle size of the intelligent water distributor in real time to make the sealing test and adjustment work easily. Up to now, there are 180 wells were implemented by wireline intelligent separate-layer water injection technology in Huabei Oilfield. This paper introduces the characteristics, key tools and construction auxiliary devices of the wireline intelligent separate-layer water injection technology. And it also evaluates the effect of the 33 wells which were implemented in the past year. The effective probability of 33 well groups is 92%, and that of corresponding wells is 83.8%. The cumulative oil increment is more than 277830 bbl and it has saved the cost of sealing test and adjustment work by 33.12 million yuan. The effect is remarkable on cost decreasing and benefit increasing. The wireline intelligent separate-layer water injection technology can improve the water flooding oil recovery effectively and it is helpful to the accurate development of oil reservoir. This technology has great value of application and popularization.
In order to determine the long-term mechanical properties of surrounding rock of salt cavern gas storage, long tri-axial creep test studies on rock salt of the field were carried out. Based on the test data, long-term strength of rock salt was determined, and comparatively analysis was conducted combined with of the instantaneous test. The study results show that: Considering the axial strain, radial strain and volumetric strain to determine the long-term strength of rock salt can ensure reliability of the results. Under the same condition, the less salt content, the value of long-term strength is higher. Tri-axial creep process has a different effect degree between cohesion and internal friction angle; it is more sensitive to cohesion. The strain limit should be considered for the stability analysis of multi-bedded salt cavern gas storage construction and pay more attention about the mechanical properties of the interlayer parts. The study results provide references for researching the surrounding rock long-term mechanical properties of salt cavern gas storage.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
