Abstract

The invention discloses a method for promoting balanced expansion of multiple clusters of fractures through ball throwing temporary plugging. The method comprises the following steps that the whole fracturing construction process of one fracturing section is divided into N stages, and first-stage fracturing is implemented, wherein different types of combined fracturing fluids capable of promotingcrack initiation and expansion are injected into a wellbore; second-stage fracturing is implemented, wherein fracturing fluids are injected continuously, degradable temporary plugging balls are put into the wellbore to be used for temporarily plugging holes of perforation clusters to limit expansion of dominant hydraulic fractures, and fracturing fluids are injected continuously to promote expansion of non-dominant fractures; the subsequent several stages of fracturing construction processes are performed similar to the second-stage fracturing construction process until the construction of thefracturing section is completed; and subsequent construction of other fracturing sections is completed according to the above process, and finally balanced fracturing transformation of the whole horizontal section reservoir is realized. According to the method, the unbalanced expansion phenomenon of multi-cluster fractures can effectively relieved, the reservoir transformation volume is increased, the oil and gas recovery ratio is increased, and the method is widely suitable for various reservoir types.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the research field of oil and gas reservoir development technology, in particular to a method for promoting the balanced expansion of multi-cluster fractures by throwing balls for temporary plugging. Background technique [0002] In recent years, unconventional natural gas resources such as shale gas and tight sandstone gas have gradually entered the stage of large-scale commercial development. Due to the tightness of such reservoirs and low permeability, oil and gas cannot spontaneously flow into the wellbore from rock pores. At present, horizontal drilling and segmental Multi-cluster fracturing technology is the most effective development method. [0003] Horizontal drilling means that the wellbore trajectory travels horizontally inside the reservoir. Compared with vertical wells, horizontal wells can maximize the contact area between the wellbore and the reservoir. [0004] Staged multi-cluster fracturing technology is a re...
