Numerical simulation of 3D and three-phase flow with variable start-up pressure gradient

A mathematical model for multiphase non-Darcy flow is proposed, and a corresponding finite deference discretization method for this model is also developed, then a well-grid flow equation to simulate non-Darcy flow is deduced. Based on existing black-oil simulator, the simulating methods mentioned above are implemented, which makes the engineering simulator possess the ability to simulate multiphase flow in low permeability reservoir. The two-phase start-up flow parameters can be attained by combining experimental esults and oil field performance data. t should make the simulating results accord with production characteristics of low permeability reservoir. By analyzing computation result, differences between forecasting results based on different flow laws are also demonstrated. To measure overall producing state of reservoir, a concept of start-up coefficient is proposed. Preliminary evaluation on well-spacing adaptability for developing permeability of 2×10^-3 μm² reservoirs by water flooding is given.
