چکیده
|
In matrix acidizing operations, the main goal is increasing permeability. for production engineers, it is desirable that acid could be injected into whole pay zone. sometimes, this pay zone has a long height and various sub-layers which have different permeability values. to prevent acid from going completely into the most permeable sub-layer, one of the useful techniques is using diverters, and one of the major groups of diverters is gel diverters. diverter viscosity changes by temperature and ph, and an increase in viscosity leads to a decrease in its permeability; thus, acid can permeate further through less permeable sub-layers. in this study, two kinds of different viscoelastic surfactants (ves) provided by two different companies were used to produce gel to divert acid into a core plug sample having lower permeability in a dual parallel acid injection set-up. the core plug samples were taken from the pay zone of ahwaz oilfield, one of iran southwest oilfields. before performing the injection test, some viscosity measurement tests were carried out. unfortunately, one of these two ves’s did not have an acceptable quality and failed to pass the injection tests. however, the other one passed all the tests successfully and diverted the injection fluid. the water permeability values of the low-perm and high-perm core plug samples were 0.91 md and 6.4 md respectively, whereas, after injection, they rose to 1.5 and 18.5 md respectively.
