    Abstract:

    Surfactant imbibition is an important means to improve the production of tight oil matrix crude oil and the characteristics of surfactant imbibition in the tight oil matrix-fracture model to improve crude oil production was studied in this paper. First, 0.05 wt% of ASB is preferred as a surfactant for imbibition by spontaneous imbibition, measuring interfacial tension, and wettability. Furthermore, through the matrix-fracture core model and the microfluidic model, the effects of the fracture tortuosity and the velocity in the fracture on the dynamic imbibition of the near-fracture matrix to improve the production characteristics of crude oil were studied respectively. The results show that the degree of crude oil recovery by dynamic imbibition of the near-fracture matrix increases with the increase in the tortuosity of the model, that is, the higher the fracture complexity, the higher the degree of dynamic imbibition recovery; the faster the flow velocity in the fracture, the oil-water interface in the capillary the faster the migration rate, that is, the faster the imbibition rate, and the migration rate of the oil-water interface and the flow velocity in the fracture conform to the law of quadratic function as a whole. Also besides, the effects of the action depth and concentration of surfactant on the spontaneous imbibition of the deep matrix to improve the production characteristics of crude oil were studied through static imbibition experiments. The results show that the deeper the surfactant action depth, the lower production of crude oil per unit volume. When the surfactant concentration is high, the variation law of the degree of spontaneous imbibition production is consistent with the interfacial tension as the main control parameter of the capillary force is the interfacial tension. When the surfactant concentration is low, the main controlling parameter of the capillary force is the wettability of the rock surface. At this time, the variation law of the degree of spontaneous imbibition and production is opposite to the interfacial tension.
