Геологические характеристики, свойства флюидов и технологические особенности добычи в самом крупном в мире Оринокском бассейне сверхвысоковязкой нефти | |
Самый крупный в мире Оринокский нефтегазоносный бассейн имеет уникальные характеристики нефти. Проведенные ранее исследования ее биомаркеров продемонстрировали, что нефти подвержены разной степени биодеградации. Нефти относятся к одному источнику с одинаковой степенью зрелости. Приведены фактические данные, полученные в результате длительных геологоразведочных работ и сбора данных прошлых лет на территории Венесуэлы. Новые пробы нефти с разных глубин позволили точно определить, как изменяется состав нефти и ее свойства в зависимости от степени биодеградации и глубины залегания. Новая информация в совокупности с существующим теориями образования сверхвысоковязких нефтей позволила сформировать принципиально иные подходы при построении PVT-моделей. Особенность Оринокского нефтегазоносного бассейна заключается в наличии двух контактов высоковязкой нефти с водой в кровле и в подошве объекта разработки. Контакт с менее плотной пресной водой в кровельной части имеет доминирующее и определяющее значение в биодеградации нефти. На месторождениях несколько десятков лет используется холодный способ добычи длинными горизонтальными скважинами. Нефти на новых объектах - более вязкие за счет высокой степени биодеструкции, что не учитывалось при подготовке проектов разработки. Представленные данные и подходы в будущем позволят более точно прогнозировать свойства нефти и добычные возможности. Ключевые слова: сверхвысоковязкая нефть, биодеградация нефти, PVT-модель, Оринокский нефтегазоносный бассейн, Венесуэла. |
