Analysis of Two-Phase Gas–Water Flow in Carbonate Reservoirs

详细

Gas–water relative permeability (GWRP) is measured in the tests of full-diameter cores. Based on the obtained GWRP curves, the standard normalized curves are plotted for three types of carbonate reservoirs: matrix pore, fracture and solution pore. The corresponding gas and water two-phase flow model was deduced by considering stress sensitivity and non-Darcy effect, and the IPR curve calculation and analysis of gas wells of the three types were carried out. Based on huge gap between the matrix and fracture permeability, the phenomenon of gas drive water mainly exists in the cracks. So the conventional gas–water relative permeability of fractured gas reservoirs was modified.
