摘要
For tertiary oil recovery, the gas drive is often implemented after water flooding. The three-phase flow phenomenon of oil, gas, and water exists during the process of gas injection. The three-phase relative permeability should be measured to further study the flow characteristics of oil, gas, and water in porous media. In this work, the steady-state flow method is adopted to establish a combined experimental method based on the principle of relationship between resistivity and water saturation, and the principle of on-line CT scanning is used to measure the three-phase relative permeability. The relative permeability of oil, gas, and water is measured under different saturation histories, including the water alternating gas flooding, in which water saturation decreases, oil saturation decreases, and gas saturation increases, as well as gas alternating water flooding, in which water saturation increases, oil saturation decreases, and gas saturation decreases. The experimental results show that in a water-wet core, the relative permeability of water is a function of its own saturation, and its isoperms are straight lines. The relative permeability of oil and gas phase is affected by their saturation and other phase saturations. In an oil-wet core, the isoperms of oil, water, and gas are convex to the point of 100% their own saturation, which means the relative permeability of oil, gas and water depend on all the three phase saturations. The saturation histories influence the isoperms of the three phases differently. Compared with the two-phase flow, the three-phase flow is more complex. This new experiment provides an approach and theory for the study of three-phase seepage laws in the gas drive.
