[0028] This embodiment provides a method for geological exploration of carbon sequestration. Figure 2 This is a flowchart of a carbon sequestration geological exploration method according to an embodiment of this application, such as... Figure 2 As shown, the process includes the following steps:

[0029] Step S202, three-dimensional reservoir modeling of the carbon sequestration area according to three-dimensional geophysical data of the carbon sequestration area with a target resolution, to obtain a three-dimensional model of the carbon sequestration area;

[0030] Step S202 is based on high-resolution three-dimensional geophysical data of the carbon sequestration area. The target resolution generally refers to the minimum scale that can capture the internal structure and property changes of the reservoir in detail, such as 50 meters or less. Three-dimensional geophysical data, including seismic, gravity, magnetic, electromagnetic, etc., are used to build a three-dimensional geological model of the carbon sequestration area. Such a model not only includes structural information of the strata, such as stratum interface, lithology distribution, fracture system and fault location, but also contains physical properties of the reservoir, such as porosity, permeability and saturation.

[0031] Step S204, numerical simulation of carbon dioxide migration based on the migration law of supercritical carbon dioxide and the three-dimensional model, to obtain the distribution of supercritical carbon dioxide in the carbon sequestration area;

[0032] Based on the three-dimensional reservoir model, numerical simulation is conducted in combination with the migration law of supercritical CO2. The migration of supercritical CO2 in underground reservoirs involves complex physical and chemical processes, including multiphase flow dynamics, interaction between rock structure and fluid, fluid state changes under the influence of temperature and pressure, etc. Numerical simulation technology can simulate the distribution and migration of CO2 in the reservoir by discretizing and numerically solving the fluid dynamics equation set. Step S204 can ensure the accuracy of model parameters and the rationality of simulation conditions, so as to obtain reliable CO2 distribution results. Through numerical simulation, the CO2 movement trajectory, pressure distribution, saturation change, etc. under different injection strategies can be predicted.

[0033] Step S206, determining a target horizon in the carbon sequestration area according to the distribution, wherein the target horizon is a horizon for injecting the supercritical carbon dioxide.

[0034] According to the CO2 distribution obtained by numerical simulation, the physical and chemical properties of the reservoir, the long-term stability of CO2 sequestration, and the impact on environmental safety are considered to determine the most suitable formation as the target horizon. The selection of the target horizon should be based on the evaluation of the spatial distribution and migration efficiency of CO2 in the reservoir, and the horizons with the best porosity and permeability, good storage capacity, stable rock structure and low leakage risk are preferred.

[0035] Through the above steps, the carbon storage area is three-dimensionally modeled according to three-dimensional geophysical prospecting data of the carbon storage area at a target resolution of the carbon storage area, to obtain a three-dimensional model of the carbon storage area; numerical simulation of migration of supercritical carbon dioxide is performed based on a migration rule of the supercritical carbon dioxide and the three-dimensional model, to obtain a distribution of the supercritical carbon dioxide in the carbon storage area; and a target horizon is determined in the carbon storage area according to the distribution, wherein the target horizon is a horizon for injecting the supercritical carbon dioxide. In the embodiments of the present application, the three-dimensional geophysical prospecting data is converted into a reservoir model, and then numerical simulation technology is used to predict the underground distribution of supercritical carbon dioxide, so that the optimal supercritical carbon dioxide injection horizon is finally determined. Therefore, the problem that the stratum suitable for being a CO2 storage horizon is determined according to artificial experience, resulting in low accuracy and confirmation efficiency, can be solved.

[0036] In one example embodiment, before the carbon storage area is three-dimensionally modeled according to three-dimensional geophysical prospecting data of the carbon storage area at a target resolution of the carbon storage area, the method further comprises: obtaining original state information of different horizons of the carbon storage area and state information of the different horizons of the carbon storage area after supercritical carbon dioxide is injected, wherein the original state information comprises original fluid volume, original pressure and original temperature, and the state information comprises fluid volume, pressure and temperature; and determining a migration rule of the supercritical carbon dioxide at different horizons according to the original state information and the state information, wherein the migration rule of the supercritical carbon dioxide comprises a migration rule of the supercritical carbon dioxide at different horizons.

[0037] Before a geological carbon storage project is implemented, it is crucial to understand the original state information of different horizons of a carbon storage area. The original state information mainly comprises original fluid volume (stock of in-situ fluid), original pressure (initial pressure of the stratum) and original temperature (initial temperature of the stratum). The original fluid volume determines the fluid space in the reservoir that can be replaced by CO2, while the original pressure and temperature affect the state and flowability of supercritical CO2.

[0038] The state information after supercritical CO2 is injected comprises changes in fluid volume, pressure and temperature, which reflect the influence of CO2 injection on the reservoir environment. For example, the injection of CO2 can reduce the fluid volume of the reservoir, while because of the high density characteristics of CO2, it can have a significant impact on the pressure of the reservoir, and the injection of CO2 can also cause changes in the temperature of the reservoir.

[0039] Based on the original state information and the state information, the migration law of supercritical CO2 in different layers can be analyzed and determined. This includes the injection rate of CO2, the distribution pattern, the pressure change trend, the temperature response, and the interaction mechanism with reservoir rocks and fluids. By comparing the state information before and after injection, the degree of influence of CO2 on the reservoir environment can be quantified, such as the change of CO2 saturation, the evolution of pressure gradient, the distribution of temperature field, etc.

[0040] The determination of migration law is achieved by comparing and analyzing the changes of fluid volume, pressure and temperature in different layers. For example, the change of fluid volume can reveal the amount of CO2 replacement, and the change of pressure and temperature can reflect the physical and chemical effects caused by CO2 injection. These information will be used to adjust the parameters in the three-dimensional reservoir model, to ensure that the numerical simulation can accurately reflect the migration characteristics of CO2.

[0041] By collecting and analyzing the original state information and the state information after injecting CO2 in different layers of the carbon sequestration area, the migration law of supercritical CO2 can be determined more accurately, which provides key data for reservoir modeling and numerical simulation, and ensures the scientific decision-making and effective implementation of geological carbon sequestration projects.

[0042] In one example embodiment, three-dimensional reservoir modeling of a carbon sequestration area according to three-dimensional geophysical data of a target resolution of the carbon sequestration area includes: obtaining physical property parameters, chemical property parameters, mechanical property parameters, and fluid characteristic parameters of cores in different layers of the carbon sequestration area, wherein the physical property parameters are parameters obtained by physical property testing of the cores, the chemical property parameters are parameters obtained by chemical property testing of the cores, the mechanical property parameters are parameters obtained by mechanical property testing of the cores, and the fluid characteristic parameters are parameters obtained by fluid characteristic testing of the cores; and performing three-dimensional reservoir modeling of the carbon sequestration area according to the physical property parameters, the chemical property parameters, the mechanical property parameters, and the fluid characteristic parameters of the cores in different layers of the carbon sequestration area and the three-dimensional geophysical data of the target resolution.

[0043] Physical property parameters: including porosity, permeability, pore throat size distribution, density of cores, etc., which reflect the pore space and fluid flow path inside the rock.

[0044] Chemical property parameters: analyzing the mineral composition, chemical composition of the rock, and the interaction ability of the rock and fluid (such as CO2).

[0045] Mechanical property parameters: determining the elasticity, plasticity, strength and fracture characteristics of the rock, understanding the response of the reservoir under pressure change, and ensuring the geological stability during the sequestration process.

[0046] Fluid property parameters: the flow behavior of the test fluid (such as water, oil, gas) in the rock, including the viscosity, compressibility, wettability with the rock, etc.

[0047] According to the three-dimensional geophysical data of the carbon sequestration area and the above core test parameters, a three-dimensional reservoir model is constructed. The three-dimensional geophysical data (such as seismic data) provides the macrostructure and continuity information of the reservoir, including the depth, thickness, inclination, location of faults and fractures, etc. of the stratum. By combining these macrostructure information with the microscopic property parameters obtained by core test, the model can more accurately reflect the true state of the reservoir, including its heterogeneity and complex fluid dynamics behavior.

[0048] Spatial matching and scale conversion of core test parameters and three-dimensional geophysical data ensure reasonable distribution of microscopic property parameters in the three-dimensional model.

[0049] Using professional geology modeling software such as Petrel, GEMSuite, etc., input the data into the model, perform three-dimensional grid division, define rock properties including porosity, permeability, saturation, etc., and fluid properties such as density, viscosity, etc.

[0050] By comparing the model prediction with the field monitoring data (such as production data, pressure test results) or historical geological data, the accuracy and reliability of the model are verified, which may need multiple iterations and parameter adjustments.

[0051] Through the above examples, three-dimensional reservoir modeling can comprehensively reflect the geological, physical and chemical properties of the reservoir, and provide a fine, high-resolution model framework for subsequent fluid dynamics simulation and reservoir performance evaluation.

[0052] In one exemplary embodiment, a three-dimensional reservoir model of a carbon sequestration area is constructed according to three-dimensional geophysical data of the carbon sequestration area with a target resolution, including: obtaining the microstructure of the rock and the microbehavior of the fluid of different layers of the carbon sequestration area; determining the flow characteristics of the fluid in the pores of the rock according to the microstructure and the microbehavior; constructing a three-dimensional reservoir model of the carbon sequestration area according to the flow characteristics and three-dimensional geophysical data of the carbon sequestration area with a target resolution.

[0053] Obtaining rock microstructure and fluid microbehavior usually involves laboratory tests and microscopic imaging techniques. Core samples or rock samples are taken from different layers of the carbon storage area, and microscopic imaging techniques such as scanning electron microscopy, focused ion beam, X-ray computed tomography, etc. are used to obtain the microscopic pore structure information of the rock, including pore shape, pore size distribution, pore connectivity, etc. At the same time, through fluid saturation experiments, pore fluid dynamics experiments, etc. on rock samples, the flow behavior of fluid (such as supercritical CO2) in rock pores can be studied, including fluid adsorption, desorption, capillary effect, and fluid-rock interface interaction, etc.

[0054] Based on the above microstructure and microbehavior data, the flow characteristics of fluid in rock pores can be further analyzed and determined. These characteristics include permeability, porosity, fluid saturation, fluid viscosity, diffusion coefficient, etc.

[0055] On the basis of obtaining fluid flow characteristics, combined with high-resolution three-dimensional geophysical prospecting data of the carbon storage area, three-dimensional reservoir modeling is carried out. Three-dimensional geophysical prospecting data provide information on the macrostructure of the reservoir, including stratigraphic interface, lithology distribution, fracture system and fault location, etc.; while fluid flow characteristic data provide details of the micro-pore structure and fluid flow behavior of the reservoir. Combining these micro and macro information, a high-precision three-dimensional reservoir model can be constructed, which can reflect the heterogeneity and complexity of the reservoir, including lithology change, fracture distribution, pore network structure, etc.

[0056] The embodiments of the present application start from two dimensions of micro and macro, ensuring that the reservoir model contains both microstructure information of the rock and reflects the macro geological characteristics of the reservoir. The three-dimensional reservoir model established in this way is closer to the actual geological environment.

[0057] In one example embodiment, determining a target layer in the carbon storage area according to the distribution includes: determining a target layer in the carbon storage area according to a saturation distribution map, a pressure distribution map, and a temperature distribution map of the supercritical carbon dioxide in the carbon storage area; performing sensitivity analysis on the pressure and temperature of different layers in the carbon storage area to determine influence information of the pressure and temperature on the storage effect of supercritical carbon dioxide in different layers; and determining a target layer in the carbon storage area according to the saturation distribution map, the pressure distribution map, the temperature distribution map, and the influence information.

[0058] The saturation distribution map shows the distribution state of supercritical CO2 in different layers of the carbon storage area, including the volume percentage of CO2 occupying the reservoir pores.

[0059] The pressure distribution map reflects the pressure change in the reservoir due to CO2 injection, including the pressure gradient and pressure distribution law of different layers.

[0060] Temperature distribution maps show the temperature changes within the reservoir during CO2 injection, which affect the state of CO2, i.e., supercritical, liquid, or gaseous, thereby influencing its mobility and distribution within the reservoir.

[0061] By varying the pressure and temperature parameters in the model, researchers can observe changes in CO2 distribution, pressure distribution, and temperature distribution, and how these changes affect the saturation, mobility, and long-term storage capacity of CO2 in the reservoir.

[0062] Combining the saturation distribution maps, pressure distribution maps, temperature distribution maps, and the conclusions of the sensitivity analysis, a comprehensive evaluation of different horizons can be made to identify the most suitable formation as the target horizon. An ideal target horizon should have high CO2 saturation, a stable pressure-temperature environment, and storage characteristics that are not sensitive to changes in pressure and temperature, ensuring the safe and effective long-term storage of CO2.

[0063] The reservoir model constructed from high-resolution 3D geophysical data and CO2 migration numerical simulation can provide detailed information on the distribution of CO2 within the reservoir, allowing for more accurate target horizon selection.

[0064] Sensitivity analysis helps identify which horizons may be more sensitive to changes in pressure and temperature, effectively controlling various risks during geological storage, such as overpressure and leakage.

[0065] Considering the distribution of CO2 and the sensitivity of the storage horizons, scientific basis is provided for the planning, design, and implementation of geological storage projects, ensuring the sustainability and reliability of CO2 geological storage technology.

[0066] To better understand the process of the above-mentioned carbon storage geological exploration method, the implementation method and process of the above-mentioned carbon storage geological exploration are described in combination with optional embodiments below, but not used to limit the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present application.

Based on high-resolution 3D geophysical data, high-precision depiction and fine modeling with a unit size of ≤50m are combined with the characteristics of stratigraphic lateral heterogeneity and the migration rules of supercritical CO2 to form a full-stratigraphic-scale reservoir injectivity evaluation technology.

[0069] 2. Multi-scale reservoir evaluation technology such as production test, core test, and experimental test. Based on core data and well logging data, considering factors such as porosity and permeability and fracture distribution, a single "layer" scale storage reservoir evaluation technology is formed.
