On Some Chemico-Mineralogical Transformations in a Petroleum Reservoir Exploited by In-situ Combustion

Abstract:

In-situ combustion is a thermal recovery technique in which a part of the heavy oil in place is burnt to generate heat. This heat brings about a reduction in viscosity of the crude oil to lead to the improvement of the mobility and hence oil production rate and recovery. Typical combustion front moves slow (some cm/day) through reservoir matrix (pores) by consuming the fuel as it moves ahead. The combustion zone is often a few centimeters in thickness and it has a temperature up to 700-800oC. The hydrothermal conditions that occur in front of and behind the combustion zone may generate chemico-mineralogical transformations following or not from a new minerals forming. In the paper the authors emphasize for the first time calcium silicates hydrate forming in the matrix of siliciclastic rocks from oil reservoirs exploited by in-situ combustion.

Keywords:
in-situ combustion; calcium silicates hydrate; X-rays diffraction; Suplacu de Barcau reservoir
