Abstract: Offshore waterflooding heavy oil fields have large injection-production well spacing and low reserve producing. In order to improve the effect of oilfield development,the basic well pattern needs to be adjusted. Based on the actual HD oil field conditions and typical well pattern adjustment methods in Bohai Sea,the classic theory of seepage mechanics was used to establish a seepage model based on integrally infilled horizontal wells with inverse nine-point basic well pattern for injection-production well pattern adjustment,and the reserve producing law under different conditions was analyzed by calculating the seepage field changes of injection-production unit. The established reserve producing effect evaluation method of injection-production well pattern was used to optimize the length of the infilled horizontal wells that meets the requirements of oilfield development. The results show that the optimal length of infilled horizontal wells is 0.75 times of the original well pattern spacing by combining the actual situation of the oilfield with the reserve producing evaluation method of combined well pattern. The research result can be used as a technical reference for injection-production well pattern adjustment in Bohai Sea and similar reservoirs.

Key words: seepage model, reserve producing law, infilled horizontal wells, well pattern adjustment, adjustment strategy, offshore oilfield
