PROCESS FOR PRODUCTION OF A CONTROLLED SALINITY AGL CHAIN The present invention relates to a {supplying a low saline injection water. 5 oil reservoir having a salinity su to avoid damage formation and a low concentration of sulphate anion to prevent aci reservoir, and to a desali system to produce such an injection water. In particular, the invention provides a process and system for water of low controlled salinity, controlled sulfate concentration and controlled cation concentration.
As described in patent application 5 WO 2008/029124, it is known that injecting salinity in a formation containing un oil in order to improve the recovery of reservoir oil.
A problem associated with flooding 0 salinity is that desalination techniques produce water having a lower salinity: optimal salinity for improved recovery high levels of swellable clays, formation to be avoided when the injection water has a total dissolved te (TDS) in the 500 to 1 preference range, 1,000 to 5,000 ppm. However, it is not desirable to mix desalinated, low-content multivariate water with high salinity such as sea water with high sulfate anion content and / or high salinity water content. Thus, the high sulfate of such water streams mixed already in an acidification of the reservoir and / or unacceptable levels of insoluble mineral salts from deposits), when the injected water contains precipitated precursors, such as strontium and calcium which are commonly synergistic pres of formation. In addition, the desalination with a high-salinity sea water can result in the water stream having unacceptable levels of particular multiv 0 cations, calcium and magnesium cations. In order to obtain incremental oil recovery with low salinity injection, the proportion of excess water supply in the salinity could be increased by mixing with έ salinity. According to WO 2007/138327, it is already obtained by the steps of: substantially desalinating a first: water supply to provide a first low salinity treated water; treating a second supply of food providing a second supply of treated water <the reduced concentration of divalent ions in c the second supply of food is greater than the first supply of treated water; mixing the first treated water supply treated water supply to provide a mixed water having a desired salinity injection into a reservoir containing oil.
In preferred winter modalities: 2007/138327, the first supply of a substantially desalted by a proce; The reverse while the water supply supply treatment step is carried out by nanofiltration. have the desired salinity suitable for oil-containing reservoir and have a sulfate anion level thereby mitigating the risk of mineral deposition or within the production formation.
It is known that the injection of a water that has levels of sulfate anions can stimulate the sulfate-reducing bacteria that produces hydrogen as a metabolite resulting in the action of a reservoir. Where it is desired to mitigate mineral deposit formation, the level of mixed water supply should be as low as ppm. However, where it is desired to mitigate acidification in a reservoir, the level of <5 in the supply of mixed water should be as possible, for example, less than 7.5 ppm, less than 5 ppm.
It was revealed that it is necessary to control the operating conditions of the proc 0 2007/138327 in order to obtain a supply of i of the total dissolved solids content and to control the formation of damages and the low co "" "i Vl Π 1 1 I ■ £ “1 4- xJ í— * X *» I xJ IA —Ί X · * X- »νκ 4- ΊΧ XI TX reservoir.
Thus, according to a first invention, a process of a controlled salinity injection water stream 5 is provided which is a controlled sulfate anion concentration which is injected into a formation containing oil of a re oil, the process comprising the steps of: feeding a source water having a total dissolved teo in the range of 20,000 to 45.C The concentration of sulfate anion in the range of 1 ppm, preferably 1,500 ppm to 4,000 ppm pa of desalination comprising a plurality of reverse osmosis membrane units of nanof 5 membrane units in which the source water is pressurized at a range of 350 to 1250 psi (2.41 to 8.61 MPa) dividing the source water to supply power to the membrane water units forward OR feed ") and 0 feed to the membrane units" NC feed water "); if necessary, increase the water pressure by volume, preferably 35 to 60% by volume volume of the OR feed water which is the OR membrane units such that the total dissolved solids content of minus 5 permeates a sulfate anion concentration of less than necessary, reduce the water pressure of the NC to a value in the range of 350 to 450 psi MPa) absolute before introducing the water from the NC to the NC membrane units and extracting 0 NF and an NF retentate from the NF units in which the NF membrane units are a single phase mode, single pass NF membrane units are operated with one of the NF permeate in the range of 35 to 60% in v 5 in the volume of the NC feed water that for the NC membrane units such that the op has a total dissolved solids content in the fs at 40,000 ppm, preferably 15,000 to 35.0 sulfate anion concentration of less than 0 preference , less than 30 ppm; and mixing at least a portion of the permeate minus a portion of the permeate of NF in a produced water, a water aquifer, residual.
Preferably, the diss solids content (TDS) of the OR permeate is in the range of 50 to 5, preferably 100 to 225 ppm, more preferably 200 ppm, in particular, 150 to 175 ppm.
Preferably, the OR permeate anic concentration is in the range of 0.5 to particular, 0.5 to 1.5 ppm.
Preferably, the TDS of the NF permeate is less than 15,000 ppm, preferably no more ppm less than the TDS of the source water.
Preferably, the NF permeate anic concentration is in the range of 10 to 5 preferably 10 to 25 ppm, in particular, d <
The sulfate anion concentration of water depends on the desired dissolved solids content for this stream and, consequently, mixing ratio for the OR 0 NF permeate. Thus, the sulfate anion concentration of the steel will increase with increasing amounts of p in the mixed stream. Typically, the concentration and having a low sulfate concentration to mitigate the risk of acidification, depending on the choice of the source water, the water can also have a sufficiently low cation concentration for use as a low salinity injection, thus obtaining r oil increases from the reservoir.
Accordingly, the present invention also has an improved process and plant to supply. The mixed salinity water stream contains controlled sulfate anion concentration and controlled multivalent cation for injection use for a flood of bai water. while mitigating the risk of damage formation 5 acidification in the reservoir.
Thus, in a second form of the prosthesis, a process for the production of a controlled injection salinity, controlled anion sulfate color and controlled multivalent 0 concentration is provided which is suitable for formation containing oil from a reservoir. The process comprises the steps of: οΙ'ίγΥΊΑηΉον 'i ί m -ί no / -s - λπλ 4- / -> ri <-] zn i ί yy t of reverse osmosis membrane (OR) and one p nanofiltration membrane units (NC) in origin is pressurized to a value in the range of í (2.41 at 8.61 MPa) absolute, and dividing at 5 to provide an OR feed water to NC feed; if necessary, increase the water pressure of is OR to a value in the range of 900 to 1250 psi MPa) absolute before introducing the water of is 0 OR to the OR membrane units and extracts from OR and an OR retentate from of the OR membranes in which the member units operated or in a single-phase mode, pass in a two-phase, single-pass mode: recovery of the OR permeate is in the volume range, preferably 35 to 65 % by volume of OR feed water which is the OR membrane units such that a total dissolved solids content of less than 0 is a sulfate anion concentration of less and multivalent cation content of up to 10 ppm; if necessary, reduce the water pressure of ε Μ T V-S ΊΧ —l Ί Ί m TT —t Ί Xx IX - | Xl · Ρ -l Ί xl A O C / 1 C X, r-í -! is fed to NF permeate membrane units has a dissolved solids content, range 15,000 to 40,000 ppm, preferably 35,000 ppm, a concentration of sulfate anion 5 40 ppm, preferably less than 30 ppm and a multivalent t up to 200 ppm, preferably more preferably up to 100 ppm, and mixing at least a portion of the permeate minus a portion of the NF permeate in a range of 2: 1 to 40: 1, preferably 4: particular, 10: 1 to 25: 1 to provide injection having a dissolved solids content of 500 to 5,000 ppm, preferably 1,000, a sulfate anion concentration of less than .5 preferably, less than 5 ppm, more preferably than 3 ppm and a multivalent cation content of Again, the source water can be water; estuarine, a produced water, a residual aquifer. : 0 The preferred TDS for the source water, OR, the NF permeate and the injection water: indicated above for the first invention modality.
Preferably, the multivalent concentration in the permeate of OR is in the range ppm, preferably 1 to 5 ppm, in particular, 5 Preferably, the multivalent concentration in the permeate of NF is in the range <ppm, preferably 50 to 150 ppm . The concentration of multivalent cations: injection will depend on the desired TDS to 0 and, consequently, the proportion of pc mixture of OR and permeate of NF. Thus, the multivalent concentration of the injection water will increase increasing amounts of the mixed NF permeate. Typically, the multivalent concentration 5 for a water stream with a total dissolved solids content of 1000 ppm from 2 to 10 ppm, and the values for the multivalent dc cation range should be sized at the highest TDS injection. 0 As discussed above, where oil recovery is desired to increase with low salinity water, the ratio between the desired salinity and the desired low multivalent concentration to obtain the increment increases when injected into a hydrocarbon form of a reservoir as long as 5 dissolved solids total damage formation and an i concentration low enough to mitigate the risk of in the reservoir (as well as mitigate the risk of insoluble mineral salts in formation and production).
Typically, the formation in which the controlled salinity water (controlled TDS), lowers the controlled sulfate anion and low controlled multivalent concentration is injected is a sandstone containing oil that contains a high te · swellable, for example, smectite clays. swellable clays means an argj content of 10% by weight or greater, for example, a swellable te in the range of 10 to 30% by weight. 0 Typically, in this first and second π the present invention, the permeate of OR and the perme are mixed in a volume ratio (origin volume; (D) the temperature at which the OR units are operated; (E) volume recovery in percent. 5 OR and NF membrane units are operated; (F) the desired salinity of the injection water; (G) the desired concentration of anion sulfate injection, and (H) the multivalent cation concentration of the injection.

Preferably, some OR retentate streams that are to be 0 from the combined C membrane units and the OF retentate stream passed through a recovery unit eg a hid recovery turbine: turbocharger that is coupled to a pump 5 for OR feed water.
