依托长庆、大庆和大港等油田进行的减氧空气驱试验,开展了减氧空气驱机理、爆炸极限、腐蚀防控等实验,明确了减氧空气驱爆炸极限、减氧界限、腐蚀防控条件等技术问题。研究表明：油藏温度大于等于120 ℃时,氧气与原油反应剧烈,可充分利用氧气的低温氧化作用,直接进行空气驱提高采收率;油藏温度小于120 ℃时,氧气消耗极少,放热量少,难以产生热效应,适合进行减氧空气驱,充分利用N2为主的空气非混相驱提高采收率。减氧空气驱适用于低渗透、注水开发“双高”、高温高盐3类油藏,为防止爆炸,确保减氧空气驱技术安全可控,临界氧含量可控制在10%以内;空气减氧后,管柱氧腐蚀有所减缓;无水条件下地面管线和注入井无需考虑氧腐蚀问题,有水时可采用特殊管材、特殊管柱结构或加入缓蚀剂等方法来降低腐蚀速度。空气/减氧空气是低成本的驱替介质,可用于对低渗透等特殊条件油藏实施能量补充及吞吐、驱替等方式开发,是未来20年具有发展潜力的战略性技术。图6表4参14

The mechanisms of oxygen-reduced air flooding (ORAF) and the explosion limit and the corrosion control approaches were studied based on the pilots of oxygen-reduced air flooding (ORAF) in Dagang, Changqing and Daqing oil fields in China. On the foundation of indoor investigations and pilots, the explosion limits, oxygen reduction limits and corrosion control approaches were clarified. When the temperature of reservoir is equal to and higher than 120 ℃, there is a violent reaction between oxygen and crude oil, that means the effect of low temperature oxidation would be fully taken use of to enhance oil recovery by air flooding directly; nitrogen dominated immiscible flooding with oxygen-reduced air should be applied in cases where reservoir temperature is below 120 ℃ with little oxygen consumption and little heat generated. The oxygen-reduced air flooding is suitable for 3 types of reservoirs: low permeability reservoir, water flooding development reservoir of high water-cut and high temperature and high salinity reservoir. In the process of development, in order to ensure safety, the oxygen reduction limits should be controlled fewer than 10%, while oxygen-reduced air can obviously reduce the corrosion rate of pipes; The surface pipelines and injection wells don’t need to consider about oxygen corrosion with no water, special materials and structure of pipe or corrosion inhibitor can be applied to the surface pipelines and injection wellbores with water. Air/oxygen-reduced air is a low-cost displacement medium and it could be applied in many special conditions of low permeability reservoir for energy supplement, huff and puff and displacement, that means oxygen-reduced air flooding has become the most potential strategic technology in 20 years.
