In the later waterflooding sandstone reservoir, there are many serious development contradictions, especially in the aspects of water breakthrough and heterogeneous development. Based on the laboratory experiments, numerical simulation research on historical match of the low temperature oxidation kinetics model, the injection mode, foaming agent concentration, gas to liquid ratio, steam injection rate and other key parameters of air-foam flooding were carried out. The results show that, air foam flooding technology integrated comprehensive effect of low-temperature oxidation, air flooding and foam flooding, which enhance oil recovery nearly 8% by block the thief layer effectively and improving the swept volume. Air-foam flooding technology also can reduce the amount of water injection and water production, which improved the utilization rate of water resources and reduced output liquid processing cost. This technology shows its broad prospect of application and can provide reference for similar reservoirs.
