摘要
The oil/water transition zone, particularly pronounced in low-permeability formations with small pore diameters and high capillary pressure, contains a substantial portion of original oil in place. The capillary pressure curves provide essential data for the calculation of the original oil in place as well as the oilfield development simulation. However, the traditional single capillary pressure curve cannot provide enough information. To address this challenge, an experimental investigation was conducted to explore the capillary pressure diagrams within the oil/water transition zone of low-permeability reservoirs. The results shed light on the complex behavior of capillary pressure, the influence of initial water saturation, and the relationship between initial oil saturation and residual oil saturation. Incorporating the behavior of capillary pressure into reservoir simulation models can enhance reservoir characterization and improve the accuracy of oil production performance in low-permeability reservoirs.
