Abstrakt: Adjusting injection and production parameters is an essential tool for studying the effect of reservoir heterogeneity on in-situ combustion (ISC) sweep and associated control strategies, as well as for achieving stable ISC. An asynchronous injection and production in-situ combustion (AIPISC) method through the coupling of the gas injector and producer in order to accomplish the balanced sweep of ISC. Using the Hongqian (HQ) ISC in Xinjiang as an example, numerical simulation was utilized to define the reservoir and investigate the sweep characteristics under various sedimentary models. The AIPISC technology was applied to several heterogeneous reservoirs, and the design scheme of AIPISC was created. Under the same heterogeneous reservoir circumstances as the conventional ISC approach, the oil saturation of the AIPISC wall increases from 0.65 to 0.72. The roundness of the combustion chamber was better, and balanced displacement can be achieved. Then the parameters of AIPISC were optimized to determine that the vertical permeability difference of the reservoir should be less than 15, the asynchronous time difference was 6 ∼ 8 months, and the gas injection amplitude was 1.5 ∼ 2.0. The results show that the experiment in HQ Oilfield was successful, and the usefulness of AIPISC was investigated using the electromagnetic approach. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
