Title: Study on rational horizontal well pattern of steam flooding for heavy oil reservoirs
Abstract: Rational well pattern can release full development potential of an oilfield.The rational pattern for horizontal well steam flooding has been studied by using reservoir engineering and numerical simulation methods for a medium deep massive heavy oil reservoir in Liaohe Oilfield.The combination of vertical and horizontal wells is considered,and the optimum pattern has been worked out.The result indicates that the rational pattern for horizontal well steam flooding in heavy reservoirs shall be row well pattern and circular well pattern.This study puts forward a new thought for heavy oil well pattern arrangement and has important significance to similar reservoir development.
