Abstract:
For the purpose of reducing production cost and saving energy, it has been widely accepted to carry out interleaved production for low production wells. It is particularly important to determine a reasonable inter well drilling system. Based on the close relationship between the recovery speed of static liquid level and its productivity, the reservoir converted pressure is introduced to preliminarily establish the working system of the oil well. On this basis, considering that the self weight of liquid column inhibits the liquid supply capacity of formation in the process of liquid level recovery, the model of wellbore liquid column height recovery with time is established, and the equation of actual liquid level recovery height with time is fitted, so as to optimize the working system. It has been applied to a production well and achieved good results.
