Abstract

Traditional reservoir evaluation is all based on reservoir engineering,and the static geological model is often considered,which can not quantitatively evaluate the waterflooding performance of reservoir,the distribution of injected water,the action result of oil wells,and so on,the dynamic characteristics of oilfield can also not be tracked.So it is not well applied in the actual reservoir performance analysis.In order to reasonably and effectively evaluate the dynamic development result of water-flooding reservoir,a new method used for the performance evaluation of waterflooding reservoir is proposed,the corresponding evaluation model is established,and a quantitative evaluation on the relationship between injection wells and production wells is attained.The flowline model is established according to the practice of the oilfield,the whole reservoir and the well group units are analyzed and the corresponding adjustment measures are presented.Finally,the development result of the oilfield is improved.
