Abstract


At present, there are different technologies for extraction of heavy hydrocarbons and natural bitumen, which differ in technological and economic indicators. Thermal methods of extraction of heavy hydrocarbons and natural bitumen seem particularly promising today.
The author's work describes the methodology and studies with bulk core samples at temperatures of 23, 95, 300°C. The object of study is fine-grained bituminous saturated sandstone. To determine the oil displacement coefficient, a filtration unit PIK-OFP-EP-K-T manufactured in Russia by Geologika was used. In three different experiments this coefficient ranged from 0,5 to 0,91 d.u. Determination of the most effective mode of thermal influence is the purpose of these experiments to determine the oil displacement coefficient. Laboratory experiments on the filtration unit were carried out according to OST 39-195-86.

Key words:

oil recovery method, oil recovery factor, bulk model, filtration-capacitance properties of rock, core material, filtration studies
