The well pattern types in the water and ASP flooding stages are a longdistance determinant well pattern and short-distance five-point well pattern, respectively. The type A displacement characteristic curve can be obtained using the production data, and the slope of the straight-line section of the curve can reflect the displacement strength of the oil displacement agent. A numerical simulation was carried out based on the geological model. The results revealed that the injected water advances steadily with a large-distance determinant water-flooding well pattern. The single-well water production rate increases monotonically during water flooding. There is a significant positive correlation between the cumulative water-oil ratio and the formation parameter. Differential seepage between the oil and water phases is the main factor causing residual oil formation after water flooding, while the residual oil is still relatively concentrated. The effect of the chemical oildisplacement agent on improving the oil-water two-phase seepage flow has distinct stages during ASP flooding. The remaining oil production is extremely sporadic after ASP flooding.展开更多

First, the water influx coefficient B in the theoretical formula Pr =(1-Rg)/(1-RgB) is used to determine the influence of the aquifer behavior. According to the theoretical formula, the relationship between the norrnalized pressure Pr and the degree of the reserve recovery Rg can be obtained with different values of B, which can be used to determine the activity level of the aquifer behavior. Second, according to Pra = (1-Rga)/(1-aEva) (where a = 1-Sgr/Sgi ), the relationship between the normalized abandonment pressure Pra and the ultimate gas recovery Rga can be obtained, as the Agarwal end-point line. The intersection of the above two lines represents the value of the estimated ultimate gas recovery and the normalized abandonment pressure pra. Finally, an evaluation table and a set of demarcation charts are established, with different values of Sgr/Sgi and Eva as well as the water influx coefficient B, which can be used to determine the gas recovery of water-drive gas reservoirs with different activity levels of the aquifer behavior.展开更多
