Abstract
Description
technical field
[0001] The invention relates to a method for calculating the apparent permeability of shale gas considering the influence of multiple factors, and belongs to the technical field of unconventional oil and gas development. Background technique
[0002] Gas flow capacity in shale micro-nano channels is currently a research hotspot in the field of unconventional oil and gas. Adsorbed gas and free gas coexist in shale pores. The mass transport of gas in shale has the following mechanisms: viscous flow, Knudsen diffusion, and surface diffusion. Collisions between molecules of the same gas produce viscous flow, collisions between molecules and walls produce Knudsen diffusion, and gas molecules adsorbed on pore walls wriggle along the pore surface to produce surface diffusion. Since the continuity assumption is not applicable in micro-nano pores, the Knudsen number, which is the ratio of the free path of gas molecule movement to the pore radius, is generally used t...
