Résumé
Abstract In Steam Assisted Gravity Drainage (SAGD) operations, condensed water dissolves the formation minerals and mixes with formation water, and its salinity changes over time. For the salinity levels below a critical salt concentration, brine reacts with the formation clays and affects their mobilization towards the production well. Migrated fine particles may plug the pore spaces around the well and reduce wellbore productivity. This paper aims to investigate the impact of water salinity on fines migration and permeability reduction. A large-scale pre-packed Sand Retention Tests (SRT) facility was employed to simulate SAGD well conditions. Brine with different NaCl salt concentrations was injected into synthetic sand-pack samples that are representative of the McMurray Formation. Flow rates were varied during the test, and fines migration along the sand-pack was traced. Differential pressures along the sand pack were recorded to calculate the permeability changes during the test. Samples of produced water were collected immediately below the coupon to measure the fines concentration. Testing parameters such as pH, clay mineralogy, temperature, and sand control specifications were kept constant in all tests. Fines concentration in the produced water during the test and retained permeability were considered as the indicators of the fines migration inside the sand-pack. Results of step-rate testing display a jump in fines concentration in produced water right after each flow rate increase. Besides, fines concentration results show that fines migration was insignificant when using brine with high salt concentrations. Fines migration was stronger for a relatively narrow salinity range with low NaCl concentrations, resulting in the highest pore plugging. The findings in this research are consistent with past studies which relate clay dispersion to the zeta potential of clay materials: the higher the zeta potential, the stronger the fines dispersion and migration. Based on this study, it is recommended that the operating companies monitor the chemical properties of the produced water. Field operators could preserve the reservoir productivity by manipulating the formation salinities to lower the dispersion and detachment of fines and their migration towards the production well.
