摘要:Solution gas drive process has been studied extensively in sand rocks and heavy oil reservoirs for a long time. Oil recovery is affected by several factors, such as depletion rate, initial GOR (gas oil ratio), oil viscosity, and temperature and so on. Before the solution gas drive tests, elastic drive without dissolved gas was carried out as a reference, which shows a limited oil recovery. Solution gas drive experiments were conducted in shale to study oil recovery with various depletion rates. Results show that oil recovery increases with the decrease of depletion rates because of the low permeability and desorption of methane.
