Resumen

Nanoscale pore-throat systems are widely developed in the pore-throat of tight reservoirs. The pore-throat structures of different microscales are complex and diverse with obvious microscale effects. Taking the Chang 63 tight sandstone reservoir of the Huaqing area in Ordos basin as an example, under the guidance of information entropy theory, the quantitative characterization model of pore-throat micro-scale heterogeneity in a tight oil reservoir is established based on casting thin sections, physical properties analysis, constant velocity mercury injection, and NMR technology. Moreover, the correlation between pore-throat heterogeneity and porosity, permeability and movable fluid saturation is analyzed. The results show that there are obvious differences in pore-throat heterogeneity between different reservoirs, and the throat uniformity of macro pore-fine-throat reservoir, macro pore?micro throat reservoir, and macro pore?micro throat reservoir becomes worse, successively. There is a negative correlation between porosity uniformity and porosity, permeability and movable fluid saturation. However, there is a positive correlation between throat uniformity and combined pore throat uniformity and porosity, permeability and movable fluid saturation. Therefore, the uniformity of the throat controls the seepage capacity and fluid mobility in the pore system of the Chang 63 tight sandstone reservoir in the study area. This has important theoretical and practical significance to enhance oil recovery and promote the efficient development of a tight oil and gas reservoir.
