Abstract:In order to reflect the influences of starting pressure and stress sensitivity on the development law of low-permeability reservoirs,the following researches are conducted. Firstly,the dynamics models of threshold pressure gradient and dynamic permeability are established based on the experimental results of threshold pressure gradient and stress sensitivity effects. Based on this,the mathematical model of water-flooding in low-permeability reservoir with considering the starting pressure and stress sensitivity is established according to the law of conservation of mass and permeation fluid mechanics theories. Also,the corresponding numerical simulation software is developed. Then,the software is used to study the influences of different features on the seepage field and development law,and the effects of starting pressure and stress sensitivity on development effect. At last,the influences of advanced water flooding,increasing injection-production ratio and increasing injection-production rate on recovery are investigated by numerical simulation method. Simultaneously,the best injection parameter is optimized. The results show that:(1) Threshold pressure gradient directly results in the lower recovery of low-permeability reservoirs. Stress sensitivity indirectly affects the recovery by increasing the threshold pressure gradient. (2) All the measures of advanced water flooding,increasing injection-production ratio and increasing injection-production rate can enhance oil recovery of low-permeability reservoirs. And the order of the enhancing extent is:advanced water flooding>increasing injection-production ratio>increasing injection-production rate. (3) The optimal time of advanced water flooding is 100 d,the optimal value of injection-production ratio is 1.1∶1,and the optimal value of injection-production rate is 0.000 15~0.000 25 PV/d.
