Capacity prediction is the basis for the optimization of oil and gas well production work systems and parameter optimization design. Horizontal wells are becoming increasingly popular for oil and gas extraction. However, the seepage law of reservoirs produced with horizontal wells is more complicated than that of reservoirs produced with vertical wells, especially when the bottom hole flowing pressure or formation pressure is less than the saturation pressure of crude oil in the reservoir. Oil and gas two-phase seepage can occur in a part or all areas of the wellbore and reservoir. Because the oil and gas two-phase seepage characteristics of reservoir oil well production will be reduced—possibly greatly reduced—the formation seepage law is complex. Thus, it is very important to better predict the horizontal well capacity. To address this, a method and process of establishing a transient calculation model of two-phase flow in horizontal wells are introduced in detail from three aspects: fluid physical properties, reservoir oil and gas two-phase seepage, and the coupling model of the inflow performance and flow in the wellbore. The model is found to be reliable through verification with production data from five wells in two oilfields. The established model simplifies the reservoir model, does not involve very complex meshing, and only simulates one well. Therefore, the calculation speed will be faster than that of other reservoir numerical simulation methods under the same conditions. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
