Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of geological exploration, and in particular relates to a method for quickly evaluating the compressibility of a horizontal well section in a tight sandstone gas reservoir. Background Art

[0002] Tight sandstone gas reservoirs have the characteristics of poor physical properties, complex pore structure, and strong heterogeneity. The reservoirs need to be broken up during exploitation. In order to significantly increase the reserve utilization rate and single well production capacity of tight gas reservoirs, horizontal well staged fracturing is often used.

[0003] Compressibility evaluation is the basis for selecting the optimal fracturing interval for tight sandstone gas reservoirs, the key to the success of fracturing scheme design, and an important factor affecting the effect of fracturing transformation. Compressibility is affected by factors such as reservoir physical properties, oil and gas content, mineral composition, rock mechanical properties, and geostress. Therefore, compressibility evaluation needs to comprehensively consider both geological sweet spots and engineering sweet spots to ensure that effective fractures are formed during fracturing while obtaining better production capacity.

[0004] Geological sweet spots refer to areas where oil and gas are relatively rich. Evaluation parameters are usually reservoir properties, thickness, oil and gas content, etc. Engineering sweet spots refer to the difficulty of reservoir fracturing transformation. Evaluation parameters are usually rock brittleness, fracture toughness, stress difference coefficient, etc. These evaluation parameters are generally obtained through three methods: one is downhole coring and experimental analysis. The second is to have complete logging data and conduct logging interpretation and evaluation. The third is seismic data and conduct seismic interpretation and evaluation (the research accuracy of this method is limited by the quality of seismic data). Therefore, it has been fully utilized in the evaluation of vertical well compressibility.

[0005] Compared with vertical wells, horizontal wells are more difficult to construct, have strong reservoir heterogeneity, and are more expensive. As a result, in actual work, horizontal wells are often not cored, and logging data are incomplete or missing (only natural gamma curves are available). If the quality of seismic data is poor, the parameters that can be obtained in geological sweet spots and engineering sweet spots are limited, and the accuracy of the parameters is difficult to guarantee. How to conduct compressibility evaluation of horizontal well sections and improve accuracy under the condition of limited data is a difficult problem currently faced. Summary of the invention

[0006] The present invention is proposed to solve the problem in the prior art that it is difficult to implement compressibility evaluation of horizontal wells due to limitations in coring and logging data collection. Its purpose is to provide a method for rapid evaluation of the compressibility of horizontal well sections in tight sandstone gas reservoirs, so as to provide a reference for rapid segmentation optimization of horizontal well fracturing and improving fracturing effects.

[0061] In order to enable those skilled in the art to better understand the technical solution of the present invention, the technical solution of the present invention is further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and through specific implementation methods.

[0062] Example 1

[0063] Take the compressibility evaluation scenario of a horizontal well in the T gas layer of an onshore L gas field as an example.

[0064] The L gas field belongs to the developed block. There are 8 vertical wells in the block for fracturing production (including 1 exploration well and 7 development wells). One horizontal well (H well, only natural gamma curve is measured) is pre-drilled. Only the exploration well (A well) has P-wave and S-wave logging data and core experimental mineral component analysis results. Other vertical wells have conventional logging series data and porosity interpretation results. The seismic quality in the work area is poor, and the reliability of reservoir inversion results is poor. According to the following Figure 1 The process shown is used to quickly evaluate the compressibility, specifically:

[0065] S1. Based on the production characteristics and formation conditions of 8 wells in tight sandstone gas reservoirs, combined with the gas well meter open flow rate Q(10 4 m 3 / dm) and porosityф(%), the gas wells are divided into three categories, the reservoir parameter porosityф is selected as the reservoir quality calibration parameter, and the reservoir quality parameter limits of the three types of gas wells are determined by analysis, such as Figure 3 As shown in the figure, the reservoir quality of Class I gas wells is ф≥12, the reservoir quality of Class II gas wells is 12≥ф≥10, and the reservoir quality of Class III gas wells is 10≥ф≥8. Due to the poor seismic quality of the block, a three-dimensional porosity model ф was established based on the porosity interpretation results of 8 vertical wells and the attribute modeling function of the geological modeling software. 模型 ( Figure 2 ), based on the reservoir quality calculation formula: Z=IF(ф≥a,3,IF(ф≥b,2,IF(ф≥c,3,1))), calculate in the geological modeling software to establish a three-dimensional reservoir quality model Z 模型 ,like Figure 4 As shown,

[0066] The calculation expression of reservoir quality model is: 模型 =IF(ф 模型 >12,3,IF(ф 模型 >10,2,IF(ф 模型 >8,1,0))), where the three-dimensional reservoir quality model Z 模型 The value of 1 is the development area of ​​Class I gas well reservoir quality. The three-dimensional reservoir quality model Z 模型 The value of 2 is the development area of ​​Class II gas well reservoir quality. The three-dimensional reservoir quality model Z 模型 The area with a median value of 3 is the area with Class III gas well reservoir quality development.

[0067] According to the three-dimensional reservoir quality model Z 模型 , extract the reservoir category Z along the horizontal well trajectory.

[0068] S2. Calculate the quartz brittle mineral content BI based on the mineral composition analysis results of the core of the adjacent A vertical well 石英 (%), the calculation expression is: BI 石英 = quartz content / (quartz content + clay mineral content + carbonate mineral content) × 100%: using core calibration logging technology, applying natural gamma curve G R Linear fitting method was used to establish the calculation model of mineral component brittleness index ( Figure 5 ), the expression is BI 石英 =eG R+ f, where e and f are fitting values ​​of -0.4554 and 106.88 respectively. The calculation model is used to determine the brittleness index BI of the mineral components of vertical well A; the rock mechanics brittleness index BI of a single well is obtained based on the longitudinal and transverse wave velocity and density curves of the adjacent vertical well A. 测井 ; The mineral component brittleness index BI and rock mechanics brittleness index BI of the adjacent vertical well A 测井 contrast( Figure 6 ), the trends are consistent, indicating that the constructed mineral component brittleness index model can be applied in the study area.

[0069] Based on the mineral component brittleness index interpretation model, BI = BI 石英 =-0.4554G R+ 106.88, calculate the brittleness index BI of the horizontal well section, and use the positive normalized brittleness index BI n , the calculation formula is: BI n= (BI-B min ) / (BI max -B min ), where B min The minimum brittleness index is 30, B max The maximum brittleness index is 90.

[0070] S3. Comprehensive reservoir category Z and brittleness index BI along the horizontal well trajectory n , forming a quick evaluation chart for compressibility and classifying compressibility ( Figure 7 , 8 ):

[0071] Good compressibility A1: Z = 3 and BI n ≥0.5

[0072] Good compressibility A2: Z=3and BI n ≤0.5 or Z=2and BI n ≥0.5

[0073] Medium compressibility B1: Z = 2 and BI n ≤0.5

[0074] Compressibility is generally B2: Z = 1 and BI n ≥0.5

[0075] Compressibility difference C: Z = 1 and BI n ≤0.5

[0076] The applicant declares that the above is only a specific implementation mode of the present invention, but the protection scope of the present invention is not limited thereto. Those skilled in the art should understand that any changes or substitutions that can be easily thought of by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed by the present invention shall fall within the protection scope and disclosure scope of the present invention.
