Abstract

The invention discloses a method for determining an improved shale brittleness index based on mineral composition. The method comprises the steps of: identifying a kerogen type in to-be-tested shale through a kerogen mirror, and determining a total content Wo of organic carbon in the shale by organic carbon analysis; calculating a volume fraction Vo of an organic matter, and then figuring out a volume content Voganic of the organic matter; and determining the content Wflesic of femic minerals, the content Wcarbanate of carbonate minerals, the content Wclay of clay minerals and a total sum Vimof inorganic minerals in the shale through X-ray diffraction total rock mineral analysis, performing normalization processing to obtain the volume content Vcarbonate of the carbonate minerals, the volume content Vflicec of the femic minerals and the volume content Vcarbonate of the clay minerals, and calculating the improved shale brittleness index Brit based on mineral composition. By adopting the method, the dual effect of the carbonate minerals on the compressibility of the shale can not only reflected, and the accuracy of the shale brittleness index is also improved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of geological exploration, in particular to an improved method for determining shale brittleness index based on mineral composition. Background technique [0002] The mineral composition of rocks has a great influence on the transformation of shale. There are three traditional calculation methods for shale brittleness index based on mineral composition: [0003] (1)B rit =V quartz / (V quartz +V carbonate )*100, [0004] (2)B rit =V felsic / (V felsic +V carbonate )*100, [0005] (3)B rit =(V felsic +V carbonate ) / (V felsic +V carbonate +V clay )*100. [0006] Carbonate minerals have dual effects on shale compressibility, that is, a certain amount of carbonate minerals can increase brittleness, while excessive carbonate minerals lead to increased strength and fracture toughness, which is not conducive to reformation, which is different from the actual fracturing During the fracturing process, ...
