摘要(Abstract):
目前启动压力梯度的数值模拟技术尚不成熟,虽能进行机理分析,但由于运算量过大还未广泛应用于实际油藏开发。鉴于启动压力梯度设置的复杂性,在Eclipse软件的基础上,针对特低渗透油藏启动压力梯度变化大的特点,在不同渗透率级别下应用"THPRES"关键字设置平衡分区,研究了启动压力梯度等效数值模拟的应用方法。该方法能够大大地减少整体工作量和计算量,可大规模应用于实际区块油藏数值模拟,为合理预测特低渗透油藏开发提供了有力的依据。
At present,the numerical simulation technique by the start-up pressure gradient is not yet mature,although its mechanism analysis can be performed; it has not been widely used in the actual oil reservoir development just due to the excessive operation. In view of the complexity set in the start-up pressure gradient,on the basis of Eclipse Software,especially for the serious start-up pressure gradient variation in the extra-low-permeability oil reservoir, " THPRES" keyword is applied to set the equilibrium region at different permeability levels,and moreover the applying method of the equivalent numerical simulation by the start-up pressure gradient is studied. This approach can greatly reduce the overall workload and the amount of calculation,thus it can be applied to the actual numerical reservoir simulation in a large scale,and furthermore can provide the strong evidences for reasonably predicting the development of the extra-low-permeability oil reservoir.
