Problems solved by technology

[0004] In the process of realizing the present invention, the inventor found that the prior art has at least the following problems: Since the basic principle of the injection pressure drop test is based on the test theory of conventional oil and gas reservoirs, whether it is applicable to unconventional natural gas such as coalbed methane, and how accurate it should be Selection of injection time and pressure drop time, whether injection pressure drop test can continue to be used in the development stage, etc. At present, these issues have not been strictly demonstrated and definite data explanation
These issues would be costly to conduct actual tests in the field

Abstract

The invention discloses an indoor experimental simulation method for testing the injection pressure drop of coal bed gas, and belongs to the technical field of oil and gas production engineering. The method comprises the following steps: selecting a rubber elastic body according to the elastic modulus of a coal bed in a region to be simulated, selecting a hollow rubber ball according to the seepage rate of a coal bed to be simulated, and assembling a coal bed simulating device; setting the water injection rate and the water injection time of an injecting system, and injecting water to the coal bed simulating device through the injecting system; stopping injecting after the water injection time is finished; and testing and collecting pressure values at an injection stage and a pressure drop stage. The indoor experimental simulation method for testing the injection pressure drop of the coal bed gas is used for inspecting whether a method for testing the injection pressure drop is applicative or not for the coal beds with different seepage rates at different stages of developing the coal bed gas.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of oil and gas production engineering, in particular to an indoor simulation method for testing pressure drop of coal bed gas injection. Background technique [0002] Coalbed methane is an efficient and clean unconventional natural gas resource. At present, coalbed methane resources are actively developed at home and abroad to alleviate the energy crisis, and at the same time realize sustainable energy development on the premise of protecting the environment. Large-scale commercial development of coalbed methane in my country is imminent. [0003] Reasonable and efficient development of coalbed methane resources must rely on the dynamic monitoring of coalbed methane, and coalbed methane well testing technology is the main source of dynamic data for the formulation and adjustment of coalbed methane reservoir development plans, and can be called the "eyes" of coalbed methane reservoir engineers . Injection p...
