Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Comprehensive studies on CO 2 breakthrough times and flooding effects are crucial for optimizing CO 2 flooding strategies. This study utilized numerical simulations to investigate the effects of hydraulic fractures, permeability, and CO 2 injection rates on CO 2 breakthrough times and cumulative oil production. Nonlinear relationships among the respective variables were established, with Sobol method analysis delineating the dominant control factors. The key findings indicate that although hydraulic fracturing shortens CO 2 breakthrough time, it concurrently enhances cumulative oil production. The orientation of hydraulic fractures emerged as a pivotal factor influencing flooding effectiveness. Furthermore, lower permeability corresponds to lower initial oil production, while higher permeability corresponds to higher initial daily oil production. When reservoir permeability is 1 mD, oil production declines at 1000 days, and at 2 mD, it declines at 700 days. At a surface CO 2 injection rate of 10,000 m 3 /d, the daily oil production of a single well is approximately 7.5 m 3 , and this value remains relatively stable over time. The hierarchical order of influence on CO 2 breakthrough and rapid rise times, from highest to lowest, is permeability, well spacing, CO 2 injection rate, porosity, and hydraulic fracture conductivity. Similarly, the order of influence on cumulative oil production, from highest to lowest, is well spacing, porosity, permeability, CO 2 injection rate, and hydraulic fracture conductivity. This work analyzed the impact of geological and engineering parameters on CO 2 flooding and oil production and provided insights to optimize CO 2 injection strategies for enhanced oil recovery.
