Abstract

Many scholars have carried out the research on the simulation of microscopic remaining oil in order to develop the underground petroleum resources further. Firstly, this paper gave the simulation of microscopic remaining oil definition and elaborated the research situation home and abroad. Secondly, pointed out the existing deficiencies of the current simulation of microscopic remaining oil on four aspects: the great difference between the experimental environment and the real underground environment, the ignorance on the wettability of the rock, the research only completed in the two-dimensional space and the inaccurate representation of the reservoir microscopic pore structure. Thirdly, summarized the studies on the simulation of microscopic remaining oil in our country, and put forward six suggestions on the future development for the simulation of microscopic remaining oil, which are to improve the physical experiment, use the fractal geometry theory and CT technology, combine with the actual geologic features and establish the complete theoretical system. The simulation of microscopic remaining oil is of great significance for the revelation of the microscopic remaining oil distribution, therefore various viewpoints about the simulation of microscopic remaining oil were reviewed in order to provide reference for the future research.
