Problems solved by technology

[0007] In order to solve the problem of uneven laying of proppants with different particle sizes in multi-scale fractures, the present invention proposes a A new fracturing method for staged propping in multi-scale fractures. This method can promote the development of multi-scale fractures, and proppants of various particle sizes can be fully migrated and efficiently laid in the fracture network, thereby increasing the effective stimulation volume and improving the shale formation rate. Reservoir stimulation efficiency of gas reservoirs, ultimately improving single well productivity

Abstract

The invention discloses a fracturing method for staged supporting of proppants with different particle sizes in multi-scale cracks. The fracturing method comprises the following steps: 1) perforation operation is performed; 2) acid pretreatment operation is performed; (3) fracturing fluid is injected to make a main crack; (4) a blocking agent is injected to block the end of the main crack; (5) fracturing fluid is injected to make branch cracks; (6) a blocking agent is injected to block the ends of the branch cracks; (7) fracturing fluid is injected to make micro cracks; (8) low-viscosity fracturing fluid carrying a small-particle-size proppant is injected; (9) medium-viscosity fracturing fluid carrying a medium-particle-size proppant is injected;10) steps 3-9 are repeated for multiple times; (11) high-viscosity fracturing fluid carrying a large-particle-size proppant is injected; (12) displacement operation is carried out; and (13) a bridge plug is put down, and steps 1-11 are repeated until all sections are constructed. According to the method, the strategy that the large-scale main crack and the medium-scale branch cracks are temporarily blocked in sequence, and the main crack, the steering branch cracks and the micro cracks are temporarily plugged in sequence is adopted, and full extension of the main crack, the steering branch cracks and the micro cracks is promoted.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a shale gas reservoir stimulation technology, in particular to a fracturing method in which proppants with different particle sizes are propped in stages in multi-scale fractures. Background technique [0002] The potential of shale gas resources in my country is very huge, and the recoverable resources are about 26×10 12 m 3 , roughly equivalent to that of the United States. Only two sets of Cambrian and Silurian shales in the Sichuan Basin have resources equivalent to 1.5 to 2.5 times the conventional natural gas resources in the basin. However, shale gas reservoirs have low porosity and low permeability, and hydraulic fracturing operations are required to obtain industrial gas flow. Therefore, reasonable and effective hydraulic fracturing operations are of great significance to the commercial development of shale gas in my country. [0003] At present, the main technology adopted in shale gas development is the idea of ​...
