The 2nd member of Shahejie Formation in He 43 block is divided into 5 flow units according to productivity index per meter of single layer production during water-free oil production period
distribution characteristics and the corresponding characteristics of air-permeability and relative permeability. Permeability of type Ⅰ flow unit is the best
that of type Ⅱ is relatively good
type Ⅲ medium
type Ⅳ relatively poor
and type Ⅴ poor. Laterally
the major subzones with thickness of over 3.5m are mainly of type Ⅰ
Ⅱ and Ⅲ flow units
while the non-major subzones with thickness of less than 3.5m are mainly of typeⅣ and Ⅴ flow units. Vertically
the distribution of flow units are complex
and even all of the five types of flow units can exist concurrently in a single well. This characteristic shows that the reservoirs in the 2nd member of Shahejie Formation in He 43 block have strong heterogeneity. Different flow units have different relative permeability characteristics. Oil-phase relative permeability in flow units with good poroperm characteristics decline slowly
while water-phase relative permeability goes up quickly. On the contrary
oil-phase relative permeability declines quickly
while water-phase relative permeability goes up slowly.
