Because of the high heterogeneity, late water flooding and irregular well network, the distribution law of residual oil reserve in Chang 6 reservoir becomes much complicated. Combining the geology with dynamics of the reservoir, volumetric and formation coefficient methods are adapted to calculated the residual reserves, and then the distribution laws and controlling factors are analyzed. The results indicate that: there are still large amounts of residual reserve in main layer Chang 622; the residual reserve can be classified into three kinds, Class I and class II are distributed concentrative in main layer; the controlling factors include property, sedimentary facies, heterogeneity, well network controlling and geological structure and so on. Finally, according to the distribution laws and controlling factors, targeted measures are proposed. The studying results provide well foundations for improving recovery of residual oil reserves and the total recovery of the reservoir.

The character of residual oil formed during water flooding, one important technique to enhance oil recovery, is helpful to further study permeability and recovery in tight sandstone oil reservoirs. In this paper, we take a tight sandstone reservoir in Ordos Basin as the research object and use in situ displacement X-CT scanning technology to analyze the dynamic characteristics of oil during water flooding. Firstly, core pore radius and oil storage space radius were measured from digital cores which are acquired in different water flooding stages by X-CT scanning technology. Secondly, analytical and evaluation methods were established to describe fluid distribution in the pore space of the core in different water flooding stages based on curve similarity. Finally, by numerical results, we analyzed the oil distribution features in the process of water flooding for core samples. In this paper, the oil distribution characteristics during water flooding are revealed based on digital core analysis. Also, a quantitative evaluation method is given to provide theoretical guidance.

The high water cut stage on the residual oil distribution regularity in late development stage of oilfield is difficult in Daqing oilfield, North West Water Flooding fine demonstration zone development time is long, well under the complicated characteristic, adopts phase control of three-dimensional geological modeling and the method of reservoir numerical simulation in the demonstration zone, structural features and sedimentary characteristics of based on the establishment of demonstration zone, three-dimensional geological model. Through the application of fine reservoir numerical simulation method for the numerical simulation of remaining oil, and a summary of the demonstration zone of residual oil distribution law and cause of formation, provides reliable basis for the next step of oilfield development adjustment.

The distribution of microscopic residual oil varied according to the character of rock pore structure. How pore structure effect residual oil distribution is still an unresolved problem. In this paper, different origin samples were collected, then the characters of microscopic pore structure was analyzed with mercury injection curves, casting thin sections and SEM. The character of microscopic residual oil was observed with fluorescence thin sections. The study showed that after strong water flooding, the microscopic residual oil was mainly composed of intergranular type and cluster type residual oil, but the proportion of different type of residual oil varied according to different microscope pore structure. the smaller the radius of pore structure is, the higher the proportion of intergranular type and cluster type remaining oil is, but the lower the proportion of corner type, membranous type and throat type is.
