Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of oil and gas development technology, specifically to a method, apparatus, equipment, and medium for selecting target layers in shale oil reservoirs, and more particularly to a method, apparatus, equipment, and medium for selecting the optimal target layer in complex shale oil reservoirs. Background Technology

[0002] Shale oil has become an extremely important unconventional oil and gas resource. The selection of optimal target layers for shale oil exploration is both a key focus and a challenge, as its evaluation results directly impact exploration decisions and development outcomes. Specialized logging technologies such as nuclear magnetic resonance logging, electrical imaging, and elemental logging can provide strong technical support for the accurate identification of sweet spots. Furthermore, these specialized logging techniques have become essential components of sweet spot evaluation in shale oil exploration wells.

[0003] Currently, there is a lack of systematic research on the identification of the golden target layer for shale oil. Previous studies have mainly focused on the evaluation of sweet spots in shale oil based on the "three qualities," which mainly characterize the relevant parameters of the "three qualities," such as total organic carbon (TOC), porosity, and brittleness index, and evaluate the sweet spot through comprehensive analysis of multiple parameters.

[0004] For example, CN120493785A discloses a method for identifying sweet spots in shale oil and gas reservoirs, including the following steps: acquiring core CT images, 3D seismic data, and production dynamic data and performing cross-scale preprocessing; constructing a fractional-order nonlocal seepage field model to characterize flow characteristics from nanometer to kilometer scale; predicting seepage field parameters through a Lie group symmetry-constrained neural network; establishing a cross-scale coupling model of quantum adsorption effect and macroscopic seepage law; dynamically updating model parameters based on real-time monitoring data; and performing multi-objective collaborative optimization to generate a 3D distribution of sweet spots and a development plan.

[0005] CN120722422A discloses a method for constructing a shale oil sweet spot evaluation system and a method for evaluating shale oil sweet spot. The method for constructing the evaluation system includes: obtaining geological characteristic parameters of several core samples; determining the main controlling influencing factors of shale oil enrichment based on the geological characteristic parameters through the control variable method and correlation analysis; and establishing a quantitative evaluation system for sweet spot based on the main controlling influencing factors.

[0006] However, existing logging methods have limited detection accuracy. Even when combined with special logging methods, the sweet spot evaluation is poorly universal due to the complex lithology, water properties, and wettability of shale reservoirs, which cannot meet the needs of field development and make it difficult to provide applicable development strategies for exploration and development. Summary of the Invention

[0047] The present invention will now be described in further detail. However, the examples described below are merely simplified examples of the present invention and do not represent or limit the scope of protection of the present invention. The scope of protection of the present invention is determined by the claims. Detailed Implementation

[0048] To better illustrate the present invention and facilitate understanding of its technical solutions, typical but non-limiting embodiments of the present invention are as follows:

[0049] Currently, there is a lack of systematic research on the identification of golden target layers for shale oil. Previous studies have mainly focused on the evaluation of sweet spots in shale oil based on the "three qualities" (total organic carbon (TOC), porosity, and brittleness index), and evaluated the sweet spots through comprehensive analysis of multiple parameters. However, existing logging methods have limited detection accuracy. Although special logging methods are combined, the complex lithology, water properties, and wettability of shale reservoirs result in poor universality of sweet spot evaluation, failing to meet the needs of field development and providing applicable development strategies. Therefore, this invention optimizes the selection process by comprehensively considering three major factors: movable oil volume, effective fracture volume, and engineering fracturing (brittleness index and horizontal principal stress difference). This method is more practical and reliable for sweet spot selection in complex shale oil reservoirs and has a certain degree of universality, as detailed below:

[0050] I. This embodiment provides a method for optimizing the target layer in a shale oil reservoir, the process of which is as follows: Figure 1 As shown, the preferred method includes:

[0051] The daily oil production of each test section in the research area is obtained after the fracturing fluid flowback rate reaches 100% during the predetermined operation period. Combined with the reserve calculation standard specified in DZ / T 0217-2020, the lower limit of oil production of the test section is determined.

[0052] Obtain the movable oil porosity, fracture porosity, effective fracture ratio, and brittleness index of each layer in the research area;

[0053] The oil production index is obtained based on movable oil porosity, fracture porosity, effective fracture ratio, and brittleness index.

[0054] Establish a fitted graph of daily oil production and oil production index;

[0055] The lower limit of the oil production index is obtained based on the fitted graph, according to the lower limit of oil production.

[0056] If the oil production index is greater than the lower limit of the oil production index, then the corresponding layer is the target layer.

[0057] In this invention, the predetermined operation period can be selected as ≥1 month, and the specific time can be selected according to actual requirements.

[0058] In this invention, the reserve calculation standard specified in DZ / T 0217-2020 is detailed in Table 1 of the standard. The specific process of determining the lower limit of oil production of the test section based on the reserve calculation standard is as follows: Based on the burial depth of the oil reservoir in the target section of the study area, the lower limit of daily oil production at the corresponding burial depth is obtained by referring to Table 1 of the reserve calculation standard specified in DZ / T 0217-2020, which is the lower limit of oil production.

[0059] The acquisition of movable oil porosity includes: obtaining the T1-T2 spectrum based on the two-dimensional nuclear magnetic resonance logging data and the two-dimensional T1-T2 nuclear magnetic resonance results of the middle section of the study area, determining the fluid type and fluid distribution range inside the core, establishing a fluid identification chart, obtaining the movable oil nuclear magnetic resonance distribution range, and calculating the movable oil porosity.

[0060] For example, the formula for calculating the porosity of movable oil based on two-dimensional NMR results is as follows:

[0061] ;

[0062] ;

[0063] ;

[0064] In the formula, Y mo denoted as , where is the signal intensity corresponding to the movable oil fluid component; P(i,j) is the signal intensity at the coordinate point where T2 is i and T1 is j in the two-dimensional nuclear magnetic resonance T1-T2 spectrum; Y is the total signal intensity of the two-dimensional nuclear magnetic resonance T1-T2 spectrum. The movable oil porosity is % The total porosity is expressed as %.

[0065] In this invention, the shale oil reservoir is dense, and the impact of drilling fluid intrusion is negligible. Since nuclear magnetic resonance logging only reflects the hydrogen nucleus signal in the pore fluid, it eliminates the constraints of complex lithology. Two-dimensional nuclear magnetic resonance logging successfully solves the core problem of fluid signal overlap in shale oil reservoirs by adding an information dimension, and realizes accurate identification, precise quantification and mobility evaluation of complex fluids.

[0066] The acquisition of fracture porosity includes: acquiring high-conductivity fractures, high-resistance fractures, induced fractures, and wellbore collapse based on electrical imaging logging data, and calculating fracture porosity; wherein, the direction of the maximum horizontal principal stress is determined according to the orientation of the induced fracture and the direction of the wellbore collapse; the orientation of the induced fracture is parallel to the direction of the maximum horizontal principal stress, and the direction of the wellbore collapse is perpendicular to the direction of the maximum horizontal principal stress.

[0067] For example, the formula for calculating crack porosity is as follows:

[0068] =V f / (π×R 2 ×W L In the formula, The value represents the crack porosity, %; V f Let m be the volume of the seam. 3 R is the wellbore radius, in meters; W L The length of the sliding window is 1m.

[0069] The acquisition of the effective fracture ratio includes: obtaining high-conductivity fractures, high-resistance fractures, induced fractures, and wellbore collapse based on electrical imaging logging data; calculating the proportion of fractures in high-conductivity fractures whose orientation is less than 60° from the direction of the maximum horizontal principal stress; and obtaining the effective fracture ratio.

[0070] For example, the formula for calculating the effective crack ratio is as follows:

[0071] P ef =(P10 cef / P10 cf )×100%, where P ef The percentage of effective cracks is %; P10 cef The number of cracks whose orientation forms an angle < 60° with the direction of the maximum horizontal principal stress, 1 / m; P10 cf For high guide joint count, 1 / m;

[0072] In this invention, electrical imaging can achieve high-resolution imaging and quantitative evaluation of the macroscopic structure, fractures, and foliation fractures of shale reservoirs. It demonstrates the advantages of being intuitive, precise, and multi-faceted in the evaluation of shale oil sweet spots, and has become one of the indispensable key technologies for identifying shale oil "sweet spots".

[0073] The brittleness index is obtained by calculating the brittleness index of the shale oil reservoir using the mineral composition method based on elemental logging results.

[0074] For example, the formula for calculating the brittleness index is as follows:

[0075] IB=(V 石英 +V 长石 +V 黄铁矿 +V 白云石 +V 方解石 ) / (V 石英 +V 长石 +V 黄铁矿 +V 白云石 +V 方解石 +V 粘土 +V 有机质 In the formula, V represents the mineral name and its mass percentage content.

[0076] The formula for calculating the oil production index includes:

[0077] ;

[0078] In the formula, IO is the oil production index, which is dimensionless; IB is the brittleness index, which is % (%). The movable oil porosity is % The value represents the crack porosity, %; P ef The percentage of effective cracks is %.

[0079] The fitted graph is obtained by linearly fitting daily oil production with the oil production index. The goodness of fit is selected reasonably according to actual needs. For example, r... 2 ≥0.9.

[0080] The process of obtaining the lower limit of the oil production index includes: inputting the lower limit of oil production into the fitted graph based on the daily oil production to obtain the corresponding oil production index, which is the lower limit of the oil production index.

[0081] II. This embodiment provides a preferred device for target layers in shale oil reservoirs, such as... Figure 2 As shown, the preferred device includes:

[0082] The oil production acquisition module 100 is used to acquire the daily oil production of each test section in the research area during the predetermined operation period after the fracturing fluid flowback rate reaches 100%, and to determine the lower limit of oil production of the test section in conjunction with the reserve calculation standard specified in DZ / T 0217-2020.

[0083] Parameter module 200 is used to obtain the movable oil porosity, fracture porosity, effective fracture ratio and brittleness index of each layer in the research area.

[0084] The oil production index module 300 is used to obtain the oil production index based on the movable oil porosity, fracture porosity, effective fracture ratio and brittleness index.

[0085] Module 400 is used to create a fitted graph of daily oil production and oil production index.

[0086] The preferred module 500 is used to obtain the lower limit of the oil production index based on the fitted map according to the lower limit of oil production; if the oil production index is greater than the lower limit of the oil production index, the corresponding segment is the target layer.

[0087] Regarding the apparatus in the above embodiments, the specific manner in which each module performs its operation has been described in detail in the embodiments related to the method, and will not be elaborated upon here.

[0105] Example 1

[0106] This embodiment provides a preferred method for target layers in shale oil reservoirs, the process of which is as follows: Figure 1 The details are as follows:

[0107] 1) Statistically analyze the fracturing, oil testing, and production data of the M1 well area in the Mahu Depression of the Junggar Basin, and check the sand addition rate (>50m³). 3 and the amount of liquid injected into the ground >200m 3 To exclude test data with insufficient fracturing scale, after the fracturing fluid flowback rate reached 100%, the average daily oil production of each test section was calculated over one month. Since the example study area mainly focused on production profile testing, this statistical analysis was conducted after the fracturing fluid flowback rate reached 100%. The average daily oil production of each fracturing section over 30 days after the flowback fluid was completely drained was calculated, which can effectively eliminate the interference of fracturing fluid on the actual oil production. In conjunction with the reserve calculation standard specified in DZ / T 0217-2020, the lower limit of oil production of the test section was determined to be 3m³. 3 / d, the lower limit is the critical point at which the investment can be quickly recovered after horizontal well drilling at the target layer in the block under the current reservoir development conditions and oil prices.

[0108] 2) Parameter determination

[0109] ① Movable Oil Porosity: Shale oil reservoirs are tight, and the impact of drilling fluid intrusion is negligible. Since nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) logging only reflects the hydrogen nucleus signal in the pore fluid, eliminating the constraints of complex lithology, two-dimensional NMR logging successfully solves the core problem of fluid signal overlap in shale oil reservoirs by adding an information dimension, achieving accurate identification, precise quantification, and mobility evaluation of complex fluids. Based on two-dimensional NMR logging data and multi-state two-dimensional T1-T2 NMR experimental results of the target layer in the work area, data inversion is performed to obtain the T1-T2 spectrum, determine the fluid type and fluid distribution range inside the core, and establish a fluid identification chart (…). Figure 4 The NMR distribution range of movable oil was determined (T2: 5-200, T1 / T2: 3-20), and the porosity of movable oil was calculated.

[0110] ② Fracture porosity and effective fracture ratio: Electro-optical imaging (EIA) enables high-resolution imaging and quantitative evaluation of the macroscopic structure, fractures, and foliation fractures of shale reservoirs. It demonstrates intuitive, detailed, and multi-angle advantages in evaluating shale oil "sweet spots," becoming an indispensable key technology for identifying these spots. Based on EIA logging data, high-conductivity fractures, high-resistance fractures, induced fractures, and wellbore collapse are identified. Fracture porosity and the effective fracture ratio are calculated, as shown in the results. Figure 5 and Figure 6 .

[0111] ③ Brittleness index: Based on elemental logging results, the brittleness index of shale oil reservoirs is calculated using the mineral composition method.

[0112] 3) Determination of oil production index

[0113] By combining movable oil porosity, fracture porosity, effective fracture ratio, and brittleness index, an oil production index was jointly constructed, and a cross-plot of the oil production index and the daily oil production was established. Figure 7 The figure shows a good positive correlation between the oil production index and the oil production on the test day, r 2 =0.937, thus forming the fitting formula for daily oil production and oil production index:

[0114] Daily oil production = 0.8138 × In(IO) + 0.5616, r 2 =0.937;

[0115] In the formula, IO is the oil production index, which is dimensionless.

[0116] Lower limit of daily oil production (3m) 3 / d) is used as the daily oil production and substituted into the fitting formula to obtain the corresponding lower limit of the oil production index (20.01).

[0117] If the oil production index is greater than the lower limit of the oil production index, then the corresponding layer is the target layer.

[0118] Furthermore, the target well's pilot well or adjacent well target layer is statistically analyzed, the oil production index of the target well section is calculated, the average oil production index of each target layer is statistically analyzed, and the target layer is classified according to the standard, and the target layer is determined according to the standard.

[0119] Specifically, for well X08 in the M1 well area, the parameters required for the IO calculation of the C9 sublayer were obtained through various special logging data: brittleness index IB is 85.93%, movable oil porosity... The porosity of the crack is 0.019. The effective crack ratio P is 0.038%. ef The value is 69.12%. Substituting this parameter into the formula, the calculated IO is 22.57, which is higher than the local oil production index of 20.01. Therefore, this layer is considered a target layer, and it is recommended that subsequent horizontal well deployments be carried out only on the C9 sublayer.
