Problems solved by technology

At present, environmental scanning electron microscopy is mostly used for direct observation of residual oil. However, due to the influence of water and gas atmosphere on the signal of environmental scanning electron microscopy, its resolution is seriously lost compared with high vacuum mode, and its ability to distinguish nanopores is seriously reduced; due to the influence of kerogen The properties of various organic matter and residual oil under the electron beam are similar, and the identification of the two is difficult and easily confused; the evaluation of residual oil is often combined with EDX energy spectrum analysis, and because the energy spectrum only relies on the analysis of carbon and oxygen elements to determine the existence of organic matter , which cannot distinguish residual oil and kerogen, and the energy spectrum beam spot diameter is about 3 μm, and the penetration depth is about 1 μm, so the energy spectrum verification is greatly affected by the particles near the pores
Therefore, the above-mentioned various negative factors will cause errors or even fallacies in the evaluation process of residual oil, which seriously restricts the oil-bearing evaluation of tight reservoirs.
[0004] At present, except for environmental scanning electron microscopy combined with energy spectrum analysis, there is no microscopic analysis method for directly imaging residual oil, and the lack of technology seriously restricts the analysis of oil-bearing samples in tight reservoirs

Embodiment

[0071] (1) SEM samples of tight reservoir oil-bearing rocks: reservoir rock samples with micro-nano pore structure inside, which can be tight carbonate rock, tight sandstone, etc., or artificially synthesized oil-filled oil with micro-nano pores for Materials that simulate dense reservoirs are processed into scanning electron microscope samples by cutting, grinding and polishing, drying, surface carbon coating and other processes to ensure the conductivity between the sample surface and the sample stage.

[0072] Take oil-bearing tight carbonate reservoir samples, cut, surface polish (metallographic polishing), and dry to obtain samples with a diameter of 20mm and a thickness of 5mm, wash with deionized water, and then dry at 60°C for 12h. The sample was pasted on the SEM sample stage with conductive adhesive, and then the surface was carbon-coated.

[0073] (2) Put the sample into the sample chamber of the focused ion beam double-beam scanning electron microscope (Helios650 m...

Abstract

The invention relates to an electron microscope identification method for residual oil in light reservoir nanopores and a device for executing the method. The method comprises the following steps: obtaining an electron microscope sample; processing the electron microscope sample to obtain a flat section with exposed micro-nanopores; obtaining an back scattering image without an electric charge phenomenon on the flat section with the exposed the micro-nanopores, wherein the back scattering image without the electric charge phenomenon displays the micro-nanopores and distribution of the protogenetic organic matter; on the same imaging position, obtaining an back scattering image of residual oil charges, which displays the micro-nanopores and distribution of the protogenetic organic matter; respectively extracting the pores from the back scattering image without the electric charge phenomenon and the back scattering image of the residual oil charges to obtain distribution of the residual oil in a three-dimensional porous space, so as to realize identification of residual oil in the light reservoir nanopores.
