Numerical Simulation Study on Synergistic Influencing Factors of CO2 Flooding and Geological Storage in Low-Permeability and High-Water-Cut Reservoirs
本研究以大庆油田Y区块为对象,针对其低渗透、高含水特征,采用数值模拟方法系统揭示了CO₂驱油与地质封存协同作用机制。研究建立了表征该区块地质特征的三维组分模型,重点分析了地质因素(埋深、非均质性、物性)与工程参数(注气速度、注气量、井底流压)对驱替与封存过程的控制作用。模拟结果表明,Y区块的低渗透特性有效抑制了气窜,CO₂驱可提高采收率15.65%。随着埋深增加,地层压力与温度升高,驱替与封存效率同步提升。优化注入参数是实现协同效益的关键:最佳注气速度为700–900 m³/d,经济注气量为0.4–0.5 PV,最优井底流压为9–10 MPa。研究证实,对于类似Y区块的高含水低渗透油藏,CO₂驱是一项极具潜力的接替技术,可在提高采收率的同时实现高效碳封存。

Abstract
How to economically and effectively mobilize remaining oil and achieve carbon sequestration after water flooding in low-permeability, high-water-cut reservoirs is an urgent challenge. This study, focusing on Block Y of the Daqing Oilfield, employs numerical simulation to systematically reveal the synergistic influencing mechanisms of CO2 flooding and geological storage. A three-dimensional compositional model characterizing this reservoir was constructed, with a focus on analyzing the controlling effects of key geological (depth, heterogeneity, physical properties) and engineering (gas injection rate, gas injection volume, bottom-hole flowing pressure) parameters on the displacement and storage processes. Simulation results indicate that the low-permeability characteristics of Block Y effectively suppress gas channeling, enabling a CO2 flooding enhanced oil recovery (EOR) increment of 15.65%. Increasing reservoir depth significantly improves both oil recovery and storage efficiency by improving the mobility ratio and enhancing gravity segregation. Parameter optimization is key to achieving synergistic benefits: the optimal gas injection rate is 700–900 m3/d, the economically reasonable gas injection volume is 0.4–0.5 PV, and the optimal bottom-hole flowing pressure is 9–10 MPa. This study confirms that for Block Y and similar high-water-cut, low-permeability reservoirs, CO2 flooding is a highly promising replacement technology; through optimized design, it can simultaneously achieve significant crude oil production increase and efficient CO2 storage.
