Shi Leiting, Zhu Shijie, Ma Jie, et al. Numerical simulation of tight oil extraction with supercritical CO2[J]. Petroleum Reservoir Evaluation and Development, 2019, 9(3): 25-31. DOI: 10.13809/j.cnki.cn32-1825/te.2019.03.005.
extraction can overcome the production and development problems of tight reservoirs which are difficult to form effective displacement. Crude oil fractions were divided by PVTi module
and the pseudo-component properties of formation crude oil could be obtained by combining with the expansion experimental data of CO
2
injection. Relevant factors affecting the extraction of tight oil by CO
2
were studied by CFD simulation. The results showed that supercritical CO
2
mainly extracted the light components of crude oil in porous media
especially those below C
15+
. The higher injectio
n pressure was
and the more CO
2
was injected
the stronger the solubility of crude oil would be
and it could enhance the extraction of heavy components. Meanwhile
the increase of CO
2
injection could also promote the retention of CO
2
in porous media
which was conducive to CO
2
storage. With the increase of porosity
the extraction effect of CO
2
increased first and then decreased
and was still 44 % under the condition of lower porosity. The extraction of tight oil by CO
