深层稠油油藏在热驱后会保留大量的热量和油。超临界 CO 2 (SCCO 2 ) 因其高流动性和独特的热性能而成为最佳载热流体,并可提高稠油的开采率。本文介绍了一种使用 SCCO 2注入法对枯竭的深层稠油油藏进行地热开采的综合模型。

SCCO2 在地热开发中的潜力

近年来,许多深层稠油油藏均采用蒸汽吞吐方式开发,但蒸汽与稠油物性差异较大,加剧了粘性指进现象。

Geothermal Exploitation Achieved by Injection of Supercritical CO2 Into Deep Heavy Oil

This paper presents a comprehensive model of geothermal exploitation for depleted deep heavy oil reservoirs through supercritical CO2 injection.

After thermal flooding, deep heavy oil reservoirs retain plenty of heat and oil. Supercritical CO2 (SCCO2) emerges as an optimal heat-carrying fluid and enhances heavy oil extraction because of its high mobility and unique thermal properties. A comprehensive model of geothermal exploitation for depleted deep heavy oil reservoirs using SCCO2 injection is described in the complete paper.

SCCO2 Potential in Geothermal Exploitation

In recent years, the development of many deep heavy oil reservoirs has been completed using steam huff ’n’ puff. However, the substantial contrast in physical properties between steam and heavy oil intensifies the occurrence of viscous fingering.
