Previous issue date: 2009-07-30 / Petr?leo Brasileiro SA - PETROBRAS / Exploration of heavy oil reservoirs is increasing every year in worldwide, because the discovery of light oil reservoirs is becoming increasingly rare. This fact has stimulated the
research with the purpose of becoming viable, technically and economically, the exploration of such oil reserves. In Brazil, in special in the Northeast region, there is a large amount of
heavy oil reservoir, where the recovery by the so called secondary methods Water injection or gas injection is inefficient or even impracticable in some reservoirs with high viscosity oils (heavy oils). In this scenario, steam injection appears as an interesting alternative for recover of these kinds of oil reservoirs. Its main mechanism consists of oil viscosity reduction through steam injection, increasing reservoir temperature. This work presents a parametric
simulation study of some operational and reservoir variables that had influence on oil recovery in thin reservoirs typically found in Brazilian Northeast Basins, that use the steam
injection as improved oil recovery method. To carry out simulations, it was used the commercial software STARS (Steam, Thermal, and Advanced Processes Reservoir Simulator) from CMG (Computer Modeling Group) version 2007.11. Reservoirs variables studied were horizontal permeability, vertical and horizontal permeability ratio, water zone and pay zone thickness ratio, pay zone thickness and thermal conductivity of the rock. Whereas, operational
parameters studied were distance between wells and steam injection rate. Results showed that reservoir variables that had more influence on oil recovery were horizontal permeability and water zone and pay zone thickness ratio. In relation to operational variables, results showed that short distances between wells and low steam injection rates improved oil recovery / A cada ano tem ocorrido cada vez mais a explora??o de reservas de ?leo pesado em diversas regi?es do mundo. Isto tem sido feito porque ? cada vez mais rara a exist?ncia de
jazidas petrol?feras de ?leos leves. Este fato tem impulsionado in?meras pesquisas em dire??o a tornar vi?vel, do ponto de vista operacional e econ?mico, a explora??o de tais reservas de ?leo. No Brasil, em especial na regi?o Nordeste, existe uma grande quantidade de reservat?rios de ?leos pesados, onde a recupera??o pelos m?todos ditos secund?rios inje??o
de ?gua e gases mostram-se ineficientes ou at? invi?veis em alguns reservat?rios que apresentam ?leos de elevada viscosidade. Neste cen?rio, a inje??o de vapor surge como uma alternativa bastante interessante na recupera??o do ?leo desses tipos de reservat?rios. Seu principal mecanismo consiste na redu??o da viscosidade do ?leo por meio da inje??o de um fluido aquecido, no caso, vapor de ?gua, aumentando a temperatura do reservat?rio. Este trabalho apresenta um estudo param?trico das vari?veis de reservat?rio e operacionais que influenciam no fator de recupera??o de ?leo ao longo da vida produtiva do reservat?rio em reservat?rios delgados tipicamente encontrados em Bacias do Nordeste brasileiro, que utilizam a inje??o de vapor como m?todo avan?ado de recupera??o. O estudo foi conduzido atrav?s de simula??o num?rica, utilizando o programa STARS (Steam, Thermal, and
Advanced Processes Reservoir Simulator) do grupo CMG (Computer Modelling Group) vers?o 2007.11. As vari?veis de reservat?rio compreenderam a permeabilidade horizontal, a
raz?o entre a permeabilidade vertical e horizontal, a raz?o entre a zona de ?gua e a de ?leo, a espessura da zona produtora de ?leo e a condutividade t?rmica da rocha. Enquanto que os par?metros operacionais estudados foram a dist?ncia entre po?os e a vaz?o de inje??o de vapor. Os resultados obtidos mostraram que as vari?veis de reservat?rios que mais influenciaram no fator de recupera??o foram a permeabilidade horizontal e a raz?o entre a zona de ?gua e de ?leo. Com rela??o ?s vari?veis operacionais, menores dist?ncias entre po?os e vaz?es de inje??o melhoram o fator de recupera??o durante a vida produtiva do reservat?rio
