Problems solved by technology

In order to avoid the above problems, laboratories usually reduce the wellbore diameter to 3-10mm (inner diameter 1-8mm) to reduce the cemented interface to improve the sealing between the wellbore and the rock sample, resulting in the wellbore being too thin to simulate pump injection support agent fracturing process
In addition, the pressure range required for rock sample fracturing is 20-80MPa, and the supporting fracturing pump is required to be a high-precision equipment that can provide higher pressure. Because the proppant particles are easy to wear the working blades or pistons of the pump, the

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a true triaxial fracturing simulation device for simulating proppant laying and a working method thereof, belonging to the technical field of oil and gas field development. Background technique [0002] my country's unconventional oil and gas reservoirs are widely distributed. Due to their characteristics of low porosity and low permeability, the seepage resistance of oil and gas in the reservoir matrix is ​​extremely high. Usually, fracturing stimulation technology is used to achieve economical and effective exploitation of low permeability oil and gas reservoirs. . Hydraulic fracturing is a very complicated stimulation process for oil and gas wells. The ground high-pressure pump group is used to pump fracturing fluid into the well with a displacement exceeding the absorption capacity of the formation, and the high pressure is generated at the bottom of the well. When the pumping pressure overcomes the well wall When the nearb...
