Fluid injection is a common practice in oil industry and one of its targets is
to increase the recovery factor of oil fields. As the oil is being produced, there is
naturally loss in the amount of the reservoir native energy to sustain production. At
this point, human intervention is necessary to continue production, so recovery
methods are used, of which fluid injection is one of them. These injection fluid
formulations are usually based on seawater (which is rich in magnesium) and
supercritical carbon dioxide solution from the reservoir itself, which in contact with
the pre-salt carbonate rocks will lead to a condition of chemical environment never
experienced when this operation was performed in national reservoirs prior to presalt
exploration. The carbonate rocks are reactive and fluid injections can cause
changes in both mineral composition and produced fluids composition. This work
objectives the searching for evidences, identification and quantification, of mineral
species precipitation containing magnesium from interactions of limestone (more
specifically calcite (CaCO3)) and injection fluid used in the enhanced oil recovery.
Experiments were performed in which a known powdered limestone rock interacted
with supercritical CO2 in a saline solution of synthetic sea water under tipical
conditions (temperature and pressure) found at pre-salt reservoirs. The rock samples
were exposed to fluid at 150 Celsius degrees and 276 bar under different reaction times. Then,
XRD analysis and elemental chemical composition (ICP-OES) tests were
performed, showing the presence of magnesium in the calcite after interaction with
the injection fluid, although the XRD analysis failed to verify changes in the
crystalline structures of these calcites after reaction.
