Numerical Simulation of Hydrocarbon Migration and Accumulation Process

Abstract:

Oil-gas migration is an important process of the reservoir formation. Based on this discussion, a numerical simulation was conducted to study on oil-gas migration and aggregation. With considering the flow behavior of gas-liquid two-phase flow, based on Navier-Stocks equations and the Darcy’s law, the movement characteristics of natural gas within the typical fault passage are predicted by using the finite volume method and pressure-velocity coupled algorithm. The velocity distribution of natural gas is discussed under the primary migration condition, as well as the diffusion concentration at different locations. Moreover, the position of spill points affecting natural gas aggregation is analyzed, which provides a theoretical basis for predicting reservoir formation and transport processes.
