Fractured-cavity reservoirs have diverse storage spaces
strong heterogeneity
large differences in oil-water properties
high mobility ratio of immiscible nitrogen flooding in water flooding
serious water and gas channeling
limited sweeping range
and primary and secondary oil recovery stages. Oil recovery is much lower than that of clastic sandstone reservoirs. Taking the S91 fracture-cavity unit in Tahe Oilfield as the object
on the basis of geological modeling
history matching
remaining oil characterization and phase state experimental fitting
a numerical simulation study on enhanced oil recovery by hydrocarbon injection in fractured-cavity reservoirs is carri
ed out
so as the evaluation of the hydrocarbon-gas miscibility conditions in fractured-cavity reservoirs
and the optimization of EOR parameters of hydrocarbon injection. The results show that the minimum miscibility pressure of injected hydrocarbon gas and formation crude oil in S91 unit is 42.5 MPa
which can be miscible under the current formation pressure. The mechanism of miscibility is vaporization gas flooding. As the content of heavy hydrocarbon components in the injected gas increases
the recovery factor increases. The gas injection method is gas injection in fractured reservoirs
and liquid recovery in caved reservoirs. The gas injection parameters are preferably 168×10
