Abstract

The invention provides an experimental apparatus and method for simulating laying of a propping agent and backflow of fracturing fluid. The apparatus comprises a first panel, a second panel and a frame; the first panel and the second panel are arranged in parallel; a sealed box body is formed by the first panel, the second panel and the frame; both the first panel and the second panel are transparent and are used for a user to observe the situation in a box; a transparent built-in panel is arranged in the box body; the built-in panel is in parallel with the first panel, and a cavity is formed between the built-in panel and the first panel; the cavity is used for simulating a crack; a first water containing cavity for simulating a shaft and a second water containing cavity for simulating a tip of the crack are respectively formed at left and right ends of the box body; the first water containing cavity and the second water containing cavity are respectively communicated with the cavity by communication gaps. The experimental apparatus and method provided by the invention can be convenient for the user to carry out an experiment of simulating laying of the propping agent and backflow of the fracturing fluid, and have the guiding significance for the hydraulic fracturing practical activity of the oilfield mine.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to oil and gas field development technology, in particular to an experimental device and method for simulating proppant laying and fracturing fluid flowback. Background technique [0002] With the further development of society, the demand for oil in the world is increasing day by day. The development of large-scale integrated oilfields and high-permeability blocks has entered the late stage of high water cut. At this time, it is very necessary to develop low-permeability and ultra-low-permeability oil and gas reservoirs. As a stimulation technology, hydraulic fracturing can form a Fractures with high conductivity, thereby increasing well production, play a very important role in the development of low-permeability reservoirs. [0003] The laying of proppant is a very important link in the hydraulic fracturing process. The proppant is carried into the fracture by the fracturing fluid, and plays a supporting role in the fracture w...
