Problems solved by technology

With the advancement of domestic shale gas development, infill development has gradually become the trend of shale gas development. Compared with the first-stage development wells, infill wells have smaller well spacing with adjacent wells (usually less than or equal to 300m), lower formation pressure coefficients, and lower reservoir pressure. The characteristics of layer stress change, old fracture induction effect and exhaustion induction effect make the original fracturing technology no longer suitable for infill well stimulation. The main problems of this technology are: single-stage stimulation strength is limited, and the stimulation range is too large It is easy to cause interference to adjacent wells or communicate with old fractures, and the construction cost of a single well is relatively high, etc.
[0003] The research results of relevant documents and patents on the fracturing technology of horizontal wells disclosed at present show that a large amount of fracturing technology research is based on the existing mature fracturing technology, and it is difficult to break through the shackles of the original fracturing technology ideas. The fracturing application of shale gas wells has limited success, so it is necessary to establish a new fracturing process suitable for infill development of shale gas wells

Embodiment 1

[0031] see Figure 1-4 , a new fracturing process suitable for infill development of shale gas wells, comprising the following steps:

[0032] (1) Data collection, including well logging data and regional in-situ stress prediction results;

[0033] (2) Stress and compressibility analysis. According to the water stress difference in the area where the horizontal well is located, the stress value and the change of the stress field under different fracture spacing conditions are simulated and calculated. The different fracture spacing conditions include 15, 20, 25, 30, and 35m. Other distances are also possible;

[0034] (3) Segment-cluster spacing design. Select an appropriate segment-cluster spacing based on the induced stress difference obtained by simulation calculation in step (2), and minimize the segment-cluster spacing within an appropriate range. The section cluster spacing includes section spacing and cluster spacing, and the selection of cluster spacing should meet t...

Embodiment 2

[0041] The other content of this embodiment is the same as that of Embodiment 1, the difference is that when sand is added continuously, three kinds of particle sizes are combined, and the initial powder pottery-sand ratio is designed to be 3%, so as to ensure the safety of construction and play the role of grinding holes at the same time. The follow-up sand ratio mainly plays the role of filling micro-fractures in the near-wellbore zone, providing favorable conditions for injection in the medium-sand stage; the sand ratio in the medium-sand stage starts at 3-4%, which acts as the main support for the fractures, and the highest sand ratio in this stage is generally designed It is 13-19%; the coarse sand is mainly selected for trailing in the final stage to achieve high conductivity support in the near-wellbore area, and at the same time considering the safety and effectiveness of on-site construction, the sand ratio is designed to be 14-17%.

Abstract

The invention relates to the technical field of horizontal well fracturing, and discloses a new fracturing process suitable for the encrypted development of a shale gas well, which comprises the following steps of (1) collecting the data; (2) analyzing the stress and compressibility; (3) designing the interval of the segment clusters; (4) designing the number of clusters; (5) carrying out the temporary plugging design in the midway; (6) designing the construction displacement; (7) designing a fracturing scale; and (8) designing a sand adding mode. According to the essence of the method, the small-section multi-cluster segmented design of reducing the section cluster spacing is carried out on the target horizontal well by analyzing the single well ground stress characteristics and the compressibility of the shale gas well of encrypted development; meanwhile, the pumping design of the variable-density perforation, midway ball throwing temporary plugging and continuous sand adding is combined, and finally, the effect of improving the single well transformation complexity and the reservoir transformation efficiency is achieved, the volume transformation of the whole horizontal well isachieved, the crack complexity is improved, the transformation strength is improved to a larger extent through improvement of a sand adding mode and a pumping program, and meanwhile the single well construction cost is reduced.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of horizontal well fracturing, in particular to a new fracturing process suitable for infill development of shale gas wells. Background technique [0002] Multi-stage fracturing of shale gas horizontal wells is a commonly used horizontal well completion method. This technology can form multiple hydraulic fractures at different positions in the same reservoir, which can increase the volume of oil and gas drainage in oil and gas reservoirs and reduce oil and gas from the reservoir. The resistance of the reservoir to the wellbore flow. At present, domestic horizontal well fracturing technology is mainly pumped bridge plug perforation combined with staged fracturing technology. The main method is: the length of a single fracturing stage is 70-80m, the distance between clusters is 25-35m, and the single-stage perforation is 3 Cluster equal-length perforation is the main method, adopting variable viscosity, varia...
