摘要

在系统总结离子匹配水驱现有研究成果的基础上,按2种分类标准重点阐述了提高采收率机理的多样性与协同性以及机理之间的相互作用,研究了不同离子行为差异对不同机理和驱油效率的影响。提出采用离子强度来表征一价及二价离子的行为差异,并建立离子强度、有效浓度与作用机理间的联系,表征多种机理背后的离子行为,评价离子匹配注入水的性能。离子匹配水驱提高采收率机理主要表现为：①降低地层水离子强度、匹配地层水离子组成,进而降低碳酸盐岩表面一价离子与二价离子的有效浓度差,提高潜在决定性离子有效浓度（尤其是SO42-）;②改善润湿性、油水界面性质、油藏孔隙结构与物性,最终在打破原有地层离子平衡的同时建立有利于水驱油的新离子平衡,改善驱油效果。选用中东哈法亚油田白垩系Mishrif组碳酸盐岩岩心,开展了相渗、界面张力测试、天然岩心驱油等实验,建立了注入水评价方法并优选出适合该储集层的注入水：海水稀释6倍比较适合该碳酸盐岩油藏实施离子匹配水驱,与普通海水相比,可提高驱油效率4.60%;与最佳稀释倍数地层水相比,可提高驱油效率3.14%以上。图15表9参40

Abstract

Based on systematically summarizing the achievements of previous ion-matched waterflooding researches, the diversity and synergy of oil recovery enhancement mechanisms and the interaction between mechanisms are examined according to two classification standards, and the influence of behaviors of different ions on different mechanisms and oil displacement efficiency are investigated. Ionic strength is proposed to characterize the behavior differences of univalent and divalent ions, the relationships between ionic strength, effective concentration, and mechanisms are established to characterize the ion behavior behind various mechanisms, and evaluate the performance of ion-matched injection water. The mechanisms of enhancing oil recovery by ion-matched waterflooding include: (1) The ion-matched water can reduce the ion strength and match the ion composition of formation water, thereby reducing the difference between the effective concentration of univalent ions and divalent ions on the surface of carbonate rocks, and improving the effective concentration of potential determining ions (especially SO42-). (2) It can improve wettability, oil-water interface properties, pore structure and physical properties of the reservoir, and finally enable the establishment of a new ionic equilibrium conducive to waterflooding while breaking the original equilibrium. In this study, experiments such as relative permeability curve, interfacial tension, and core-flooding were carried out on carbonate core samples from the Cretaceous Mishrif Formation reservoirs in Halfaya Oilfield, Middle East, a method for injection water evaluation was established and the injection water suitable for these reservoirs was selected: 6 times diluted seawater. Compared with ordinary seawater, oil displacement efficiency can be increased by more than 4.60% and compared with the optimum dilution of formation water, oil displacement efficiency can be increased by 3.14%.

Key words： carbonate reservoir; ion-matched waterflooding; effective ion concentration; ionic strength; oil displacement mechanism; enhancing oil recovery; Halfaya Oilfield
