Abstract
- Mechanism analysis and technical scheme optimization on CO<subscript>2</subscript> displacement and CO<subscript>2</subscript> storage are based on the high-pressure physical properties of CO<subscript>2</subscript>-added formation oil. Oil and natural gas samples from the BZ25-1 block in the Bohai oilfield were used to conduct high-pressure physical property experiments to explore the impacts of CO<subscript>2</subscript>-CH<subscript>4</subscript> mixed gas on the properties of formation oil. After injecting different amounts of mixed gas, the saturated pressure was measured by constant mass expansion test, the viscosity was measured by falling ball method, the expansion coefficient was measured by gas injection expansion test, and the gas–oil ratio and volume coefficient were obtained by single degassing test. The results show that with gas injection, the saturation pressure and dissolved gas–oil ratio of formation oil increase, the volume coefficient and expansion factor go up, while the oil viscosity reduces. With the increase in gas addition, the properties of formation oil continue to improve, but the increase in improvement becomes flat. With the increase in pressure, the amount of dissolved gas in the formation oil will also increase. High-purity CO<subscript>2</subscript> is more helpful to change the properties of formation oil, while the gas mixed with CH<subscript>4</subscript> is more beneficial to elevate the formation energy. For the BZ 25-1 block, the gas injection amount of about 80 mol% is appropriate and the CO<subscript>2</subscript> purity of 60% can well balance the oil properties improvement and the formation pressure elevation.
