Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of oil and gas exploration and development, and in particular to a method and system for calculating formation water resistivity by utilizing formation water chloride ion concentration. Background Art

[0002] Neogene and Paleogene sedimentary basins are affected by different original sedimentary environments, later tectonic movements, and oil and gas accumulation and migration. The properties of formation water in different lateral and vertical layers in the region are complex and changeable. Parameters such as ion composition, ion concentration, and total mineralization in formation water vary greatly and are distributed irregularly in the region, which brings great difficulties to the judgment of formation water properties and reservoir evaluation on site.

[0003] Regional formation water type and chloride ion concentration are important parameters for determining equivalent NaCl mineralization and resistivity. Currently, there are two main methods for obtaining formation water mineralization parameters. The first method involves obtaining representative formation water samples through DST formation testing in exploration wells, water production from development wells, and on-site pump sampling. Due to limited on-site testing conditions at the platform, only the chloride ion concentration of the water sample can be measured. Therefore, the water sample is usually transported back to a specialized laboratory at the base for analysis to obtain information such as water type, total mineralization, and the types and concentrations of various ions. This method measures accurate and reliable parameters, but it takes a long time and has low timeliness, failing to meet the requirements of drilling tracking and reservoir evaluation at the operation site. The second method is to select a pure sandstone water layer section with a certain thickness and good logging curve quality, and use the Alche formula to directly calculate the formation water salinity based on the logging depth resistivity and effective porosity, and then convert it into formation water resistivity according to the empirical formula, and finally calculate the formation water saturation. However, since the resistivity and porosity curves of the pure water layer are often affected by many factors such as wellbore expansion, mud content, dense minerals such as ash, thin layers and interlayers, measurement errors of different logging instruments, and oil and gas content in the formation, the formation water salinity calculated by logging often has large errors, which directly affects the calculation accuracy of formation water saturation and thus affects the reserve evaluation.

[0098] Based on the above solution of the present invention, the following Figure 1 The technical solution of the present invention is described in detail by way of specific embodiments.

[0099] Example 1

[0100] Taking the formation water analysis and reservoir evaluation of the first section of Well X-1 in a certain basin as an example, the method of calculating the formation water resistivity using the chloride ion concentration of the formation water includes the following steps:

[0101] Step 1: Acquisition of regional downhole formation water samples: Utilize DST formation testing in exploration wells, water production from development wells, and on-site pump sampling to obtain regional undisturbed formation water samples. During this process, water samples significantly affected by drilling fluids must be eliminated to select relatively pure and representative undisturbed formation water samples.

[0102] Step 2: Based on the water analysis sample data of the basin area, a relationship model between the chloride ion concentration, sodium ion concentration and the total mineralization of the formation water based on different water types is established. That is, after clarifying the regional water type and chloride ion concentration, the total mineralization of the formation water and the sodium ion concentration can be determined.

[0103] The relationship between the chloride ion concentration X and the total mineralization Y of different water samples in the basin is as follows:

[0104] NaHCO3 type: Y = 2.0477X, R 2 =0.9086;

[0105] CaCl2 type: Y=1.6762X, R 2 =0.9967;

[0106] Na2SO4 type: Y=1.9351X, R 2 =0.9046;

[0107] MgCl2 type: Y = 1.7969X, R 2 =0.94;

[0108] The relationship between the sodium ion concentration Z and the total mineralization Y of different water types in the basin is as follows:

[0109] NaHCO3 type: Z = 0.3638Y, R 2 =0.9929;

[0110] CaCl2 type: Z = 0.3626Y, R 2 =0.9841;

[0111] Na2SO4 type: Z = 0.3493Y, R 2 =0.945;

[0112] MgCl2 type: Z = 0.3443Y, R 2 =0.8318;

[0113] Step 3: Measure the chloride ion concentration and obtain the mineralization of the on-site formation water sample: Due to the limitations of the on-site laboratory analysis platform, only the chloride ion concentration of the formation water sample can be measured; the concentrations of other ions and the total mineralization cannot be determined. Using the regional sample model in Step 2, the total mineralization and sodium ion concentration of the on-site formation water sample can be calculated.

[0114] Step 4: For each of the four different water types, determine the representative ions with the largest proportion other than chloride ions and sodium ions, i.e., core ions. Among them: the core ion of NaHCO3 type is HCO3 - MgCl2-type core ion is Mg 2+ , the core ion of CaCl2 type is Ca 2+ , the core ion of Na2SO4 type is SO4 2- .

[0115] Step 5, based on the principle of charge balance between anions and cations, the total charge of anions and cations is theoretically equal, so an equation can be established to determine the concentration of core ions. Both theory and practice show that for a certain water type, the sum of the concentrations of chloride ions, sodium ions, and core ions is close to the total mineralization. Figure 2 As shown, taking the first section of Well X-1 in this basin as an example, this formation is a marine sedimentary stratum, and the confirmed water type is all CaCl2 water. Based on the above, for ease of analysis and evaluation, the ion composition of this formation water can be simplified to contain only three ions: chloride ions, sodium ions, and calcium ions. Let the chloride concentration be D, the sodium ion concentration be E, and the core ion calcium ion concentration be F. Combining the molecular weights of different ions, the charge balance equations for anions and cations can be established, resulting in:

[0116]

[0117] A pure water sample was taken from the upper section of the X-1 well. The chloride concentration of the water sample was 19940ppm. Figure 3 and Figure 4From the regional conversion chart, it can be obtained that the total mineralization of the formation water is 33423ppm, and the sodium ion concentration is 12119ppm. According to the above charge balance equation, the total charge of anions is 561.7, the total charge of sodium ions in cations is 526.9, and the remaining 34.8 cationic charges are all distributed to calcium ions. Theoretically, 17 calcium ions need to be supplemented. From this, it can be calculated that the concentration of calcium ions is 696.6ppm, that is, the total concentration of anions and cations other than chloride ions, sodium ions and calcium ions in the water sample is only about 667.5ppm, which accounts for less than 2% of the total mineralization, which is a low proportion.

[0118] Step 6: Since the formation water salinity used in calculating formation water saturation by logging is equivalent to NaCl salinity, it is necessary to convert the total salinity measured by the above water analysis data into equivalent NaCl water type salinity. Figure 5 ( Figure 5 This is a classic diagram known in the art for converting the total mineralization of formation water under different water type conditions into equivalent NaCl mineralization. According to the total mineralization value of the water sample, the conversion coefficient between the core ion concentration of different water types and the chloride ion or sodium ion concentration can be determined, thereby obtaining the total equivalent NaCl mineralization value of the water sample. ) The conversion relationship between the total mineralization of formation water under different water type conditions and the equivalent NaCl mineralization can be converted to NaCl by multiplying the core ion concentration by the conversion coefficient. + or Cl - Concentration, and ultimately the total mineralization of the equivalent NaCl solution is obtained. In Well X-1, when the total mineralization of the formation water is 33423ppm, the calcium ion concentration needs to be multiplied by 0.82 to convert it to the sodium ion concentration. The resulting equivalent concentration of calcium ions converted to sodium ions is 572ppm, and the final total equivalent NaCl mineralization of the water sample is 32631ppm.

[0119] Step 7: Calculate the formation temperature T based on the geothermal gradient and burial depth. This area is a normal temperature and pressure system. Existing research results show that the geothermal gradient is 3.3°C / 100m. Therefore, the formula for calculating the formation temperature based on the burial depth is as follows:

[0120] T=0.0332H+30.032,R 2 =0.9776;

[0121] Where: T is the formation temperature, in °C; H is the formation depth, in m;

[0122] According to the theoretical relationship between equivalent NaCl salinity, formation temperature and resistivity, the resistivity of formation water can be accurately calculated using the following formula:

[0123] Salinity=(300000 / (R w*(1.8*T+39)-1)) 1.05 ;

[0124]

[0125] Where: R w is the formation water resistivity, in Ω.m; Salinity is the equivalent NaCl mineralization.

[0126] The formation temperature of the target layer of Well X-1 is about 73℃. According to the above formula, the formation water resistivity R w It is 0.094Ω.m.

[0127] Furthermore, in this embodiment, the method further includes: step 8, calculating the formation water saturation based on important reservoir parameters such as formation water resistivity, well logging curves, and regional rock electrical parameters using the Indonesian saturation model that has been proven to be applicable to the entire regional argillaceous sandstone formation. The expression is as follows:

[0128]

[0129] Where: Vsh is the mud content, in decimals; Rsh is the mudstone resistivity, in decimals; a and m are regional rock electrical parameters, in decimals; φ is the effective porosity, in decimals; Rt is the deep resistivity, in Ω.m; Sw is the water saturation, in decimals.

[0130] In order to verify the effectiveness of the method used in the present invention, the water samples collected on site were transported back to land and measured by a professional water analysis laboratory. The concentrations of various ions were obtained, and the total mineralization of the water sample was 33584ppm, and the equivalent NaCl mineralization was 32987ppm, which was consistent with the rapid evaluation results of the on-site water sample. At the same time, closed coring operations were carried out in this well section, and the water saturation and oil saturation of the core were measured. Statistics show that the sum of the two is above 90%, indicating that during the coring, core transportation and measurement process, there was very little fluid loss in the core. Therefore, the measured water saturation value of the core can better represent the true water saturation of the formation. Figure 2 It can be seen that the water saturation of the oil layer section obtained by the on-site rapid evaluation is generally consistent with the water saturation of the closed coring experiment.

[0131] According to an embodiment of the present invention, the method obtains representative undisturbed formation water samples through regional exploration well DST formation testing, development well production water production, and on-site pump sampling, and measures the chloride ion concentration on-site. Based on the relationship model between the chloride ion concentration and sodium ion concentration of samples of different regional water types and the total salinity of the formation water, the total salinity and sodium ion concentration of the formation water can be effectively determined. Then, based on the principle of ionic charge balance, the core ion concentration of different water types can be determined by establishing a balance equation. Based on the classic conversion chart of total formation water salinity and equivalent NaCl salinity already available in the art, the core ion concentration is converted into equivalent sodium ion or chloride ion concentration, and finally the total salinity of equivalent NaCl solution of different water types is obtained. Based on the theoretical relationship between equivalent NaCl salinity, temperature, and resistivity, the formation water resistivity can be accurately calculated. After obtaining the formation water resistivity, the Indonesian saturation model can be used to calculate the formation water saturation.
