极性组分解吸作用下多孔介质动态润湿演化与两相驱替的格子Boltzmann模拟

LATTICE BOLTZMANN SIMULATION OF DYNAMIC WETTABILITY ALTERATION AND TWO-PHASE DISPLACEMENT IN POROUS MEDIA INDUCED BY POLAR-COMPONENT DESORPTION

  • 摘要: 海相砂岩油藏强水驱开发过程中, 极性组分在岩石表面的持续解吸是诱发润湿性动态演化的关键机制, 并对孔隙尺度油-水运移与剩余油再动用有重要控制作用. 本文构建了流动、传质、吸附耦合的多孔介质油-水两相流格子Boltzmann模型, 在多松弛Shan-Chen多组分框架下引入溶质运移模型与改进的Langmuir吸附动力学边界, 实现了极性组分动态吸附/解吸、接触角演化与两相驱替响应的显式耦合. 基于该框架, 系统研究了动态润湿演化条件下孔隙尺度油-水运移特征, 并分析了油-水黏度比、极性组分初始浓度、孔喉结构及矿物成分差异的影响. 结果表明: 动态润湿演化条件下, 强水驱过程可划分为主流通道形成及油相破碎、润湿演化驱动分散状剩余油再启动两个阶段, 其中高倍数阶段持续增油受润湿剥离和毛细管平衡扰动协同主导. 适中的油-水黏度比更有利于兼顾前期波及与后期动用; 在本文设定范围内, 极性组分初始浓度主要影响局部解吸行为及油附着状态, 对整体驱替格局的影响有限. 真实多孔介质中, 孔喉结构决定优势流动通道的形成方式及润湿演化的空间范围, 矿物成分差异则通过调节局部界面响应影响剩余油的滞留与再启动; 孔喉连通性与结构均质性越强, 润湿演化越易沿主流通道向邻近滞留区传播, 从而改善两相渗流能力. 本研究为海相砂岩油藏剩余潜力评估与强水驱开发策略优化提供了孔隙尺度理论依据.

     

    Abstract: During high-flux water flooding in marine sandstone reservoirs, the continuous desorption of polar components from rock surfaces is a key mechanism that induces dynamic wettability alteration and controls pore-scale oil-water transport and residual oil remobilization. In this study, a lattice Boltzmann model for oil-water two-phase flow in porous media was developed by coupling flow, mass transfer, and adsorption processes. Within a multiple-relaxation-time Shan-Chen multicomponent framework, a solute transport model and an improved Langmuir adsorption-kinetic boundary were introduced, enabling the explicit coupling among the dynamic adsorption/desorption of polar components, contact-angle evolution, and two-phase displacement response. Based on this framework, the pore-scale oil-water transport behaviour under dynamic wettability alteration was systematically investigated, and the effects of the oil-water viscosity ratio, the initial concentration of polar components, pore-throat structure, and mineral-composition heterogeneity were analysed. The results show that, under dynamic wettability alteration, the high-flux water-flooding process can be divided into two stages: dominant flow-channel formation with oil breakup, and wettability-evolution-driven remobilization of dispersed residual oil. In the late stage of high-flux water flooding, the sustained increase in oil recovery is jointly governed by wettability-driven detachment and capillary-equilibrium disturbance. A moderate oil-water viscosity ratio is more favourable for balancing early sweep efficiency and late-stage mobilization. Within the concentration range considered in this study, the initial concentration of polar components mainly affects the local desorption behaviour and the adhesion state of residual oil, while its effect on the overall displacement pattern is limited. In real porous media, the pore-throat structure determines the formation mode of dominant flow channels and the spatial extent of wettability evolution, while mineral heterogeneity affects residual oil retention and remobilization by regulating local interfacial responses. Stronger pore-throat connectivity and better structural homogeneity facilitate the propagation of wettability alteration from dominant flow channels toward adjacent trapped zones, thereby improving the two-phase flow capacity. This study provides a pore-scale theoretical basis for remaining-oil potential evaluation and strategy optimization of high-flux water flooding in marine sandstone reservoirs.
