摘要

This paper presents the development plan using EORrntechniques for a sandstone reservoir containing very light oilrn(45 oAPI, 0.5 cP at reservoir conditions) located in Oman.rnDue to low permeability (0.1 to 5 mD) of the upper part of thernreservoir (Upper Haushi Sand, UHS), recovery factor wasrnvery low. However, original oil in place is quite significant inrnthis formation and EOR application was targeted to increasernthe recovery factor. On the other hand, reservoir pressure isrnstill high due to strong aquifer support. Another zone of highrnpermeability (100-300 mD, Sand Drain, SD) has been wateredrnout by the strong aquifer influx. Being operated by a smallrnsize oil company, the main concern was the economics -rncapital and operating expenditures. After a screening processrnthe optimum solution was found to be nitrogen injection tornovercome the low injectivity. The low viscosity of oil andrnrelatively low cost of injectant also make the injection ofrnnitrogen a favorable application.rnThe response of the two formations (UHS and SD) tornnitrogen injection was tested in laboratory by injectingrnnitrogen into oil saturated core samples. The recoveryrnobtained by immiscible displacement of oil was as high as 40rn% in the tight UHS. Similarly, tests were carried out tornunderstand the response of nitrogen injection into alreadyrnwaterflooded high permeability SD zone. The recovery wasrnfound to be 5 to 10 % after 75 % waterflood recovery. Next,rnthe nitrogen injection performance was studied using a fullscalernfield simulator. After obtaining a history match, thernoption of using abandoned downdip wells as injectors and thernupdip wells as producers were evaluated. Relativernpermeability curves generated using the laboratory tests werernapplied and different injection scenarios were tested through arnseries of simulation runs. Also, the possibilities of injecting air without purifying from the oxygen were discussed from therneconomical, technical, additional oil recovery and safetyrnpoints of view.
