Description
TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of natural gas underground storage and reserves exploitation, and particularly relates to a method and device for calculating the scale of working gas increased due to the increase of upper limit pressure. BACKGROUND
[0002] The actual working gas volume of the natural gas underground storage currently in use is far lower than the designed working gas volume. In order to further increase the working gas volume, the upper limit pressure of the natural gas underground storage can be increased. However, how to accurately determine the gas volume range of the working gas volume of the active storage increased due to the increase of the upper limit pressure is a technical problem puzzling the technical personnel in the field.
[0003] The current calculation method for increasing the working gas volume of the active storage is based on the traditional whole gas layer pressure drop method. The basic idea is to consider the whole gas storage formation as a whole pressure drop. This whole pressure drop method needs the numerical value after the pressure field balance as the calculation basis. However, in the storage which has been built and is running, the pressure field is often difficult to truly balance. Because the storage repeatedly injects and produces gas through numerous production wells, the well bottom pressure is higher than the surrounding pressure to form a pressure rise funnel. Moreover, the balance period of the injection-production conversion is particularly short, the pressure rise funnel cannot fully expand to the boundary of the gas storage layer, causing the pressure imbalance phenomenon of high well bottom pressure and low surrounding pressure. At this time, the average pressure of the reservoir is difficult to determine.
[0004] It can be seen that the current method for calculating the scale of the working gas increased due to the increase of the upper limit pressure considers the gas storage formation as a whole pressure drop, and then needs the pressure data after the complete balance of the pressure field of the gas storage formation. However, the cyclic injection and production of the field cannot achieve the balance of the pressure field, which makes it difficult to accurately determine the gas volume of the working gas volume of the underground storage increased due to the increase of the upper limit pressure. SUMMARY

The method comprises the following steps:

[0025] With reference to the accompanying drawings: the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be described clearly and completely, obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present application, rather than all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative labor are within the scope of the present application.
[0026] The embodiments of the present application provide a method for calculating the working gas amount increased due to the increase of the upper limit pressure, which is used to accurately determine the working gas amount of the underground gas storage increased due to the increase of the upper limit pressure, as shown in the formula: Figure 1 The method comprises the following steps:
[0027] Step 101: the underground gas storage is divided into multiple gas storage units with each gas injection well as the center of each gas storage unit;
[0028] Step 102: the operation of each gas injection well is simulated in each gas storage unit to obtain the bottom hole pressure value of each gas injection well;
[0029] Step 103: the stratum radius influenced by each gas injection well in each gas storage unit is determined according to the bottom hole pressure value of each gas injection well, the operation parameters of the underground gas storage and the target upper limit pressure of the underground gas storage;
[0030] Step 104: the working gas amount increased in each gas storage unit is determined according to the above stratum radius and the target upper limit pressure of the underground gas storage;
[0031] Step 105: the working gas amount of the underground gas storage increased is determined according to the working gas amount increased in each gas storage unit.
[0032] According to the method provided by the embodiments of the present application, the working gas amount of the underground gas storage increased due to the increase of the upper limit pressure can be accurately determined, and the working gas amount of the underground gas storage increased due to the increase of the upper limit pressure can be calculated. Figure 1As shown in the flow, in the embodiment of the present application, the underground gas storage is split into multiple gas storage units by taking each gas injection well as the center of each gas storage unit; in each gas storage unit, the operation of each gas injection well is simulated to obtain the bottom hole pressure value of each gas injection well; according to the bottom hole pressure value of each gas injection well, the underground gas storage operation parameter and the target upper limit pressure of the underground gas storage, the stratum radius influenced by each gas injection well in each gas storage unit is determined; according to the stratum radius and the target upper limit pressure of the underground gas storage, the increased working gas amount of each gas storage unit is determined, and according to the increased working gas amount of each gas storage unit, the increased working gas amount of the underground gas storage is determined. By splitting the underground gas storage into separate gas storage units with the gas injection well as the center, the stratum radius influenced by each gas injection well is determined independently, the increased working gas amount of each gas storage unit is determined according to the stratum radius influenced by each gas injection well, and then the increased working gas amount of the underground gas storage is obtained according to the increased working gas amount of each gas storage unit. Compared with the prior art which takes the entire reservoir of the underground gas storage as the calculation unit, the increased working gas amount of the underground gas storage can be determined without solving the problem of pressure imbalance, so that the working gas amount of the underground gas storage which is increased due to the increase of the upper limit pressure can be accurately determined.
[0033] In specific implementation, first, the underground gas storage is split into multiple gas storage units by taking each gas injection well as the center of each gas storage unit. When the upper limit pressure of the underground gas storage is increased, the gas storage stratum of the underground gas storage is considered as a whole pressure drop, the bottom hole pressure is higher than the surrounding pressure to form a pressure rise funnel during gas injection, and the balance period of injection-production conversion is particularly short, so the pressure rise funnel cannot fully expand to the boundary of the gas storage stratum, causing the phenomenon of pressure imbalance of high bottom hole pressure and low surrounding pressure, thereby making it difficult to determine the average pressure of the reservoir. Therefore, in the embodiment of the present application, the underground gas storage is split into multiple gas storage units, and each gas storage unit takes a gas injection well as the center.
[0034] After the underground gas storage is split into multiple gas storage units, in each gas storage unit, the operation of each gas injection well is simulated to obtain the bottom hole pressure value of each gas injection well. In specific implementation process, as shown in the figure, it includes: Figure 2
[0035] Step 201: In each gas storage unit, a wellbore model of each gas injection well is constructed, high pressure is formed by injecting gas into the gas storage layer at the bottom of the wellbore model, the injection pressure is increased according to a preset amplitude, and the gas leakage amount of the overlying stratum at the top of the wellbore model is recorded.
[0036] Step 202: According to the injection pressure and the gas leakage amount of the overlying stratum at the top of the wellbore model, the bottom hole pressure value of each gas injection well is determined.
[0037] In step 201, based on the actual geological stratification obtained from drilling, the configuration relationships of the three sets of permeable layers above the gas reservoir and the interlayer lithology and thickness are clearly defined. Based on the actual geological stratification, separate formation models are created and superimposed according to their configuration relationships to form a geological model considering the gas reservoir and its overlying strata. Holes are drilled in the model to simulate well drilling, and appropriate cement is injected for sealing, simulating well cementing, thus forming a wellbore model for the gas injection well. Simulating the formation temperature and stress environment, high-pressure gas is injected at the bottom of the wellbore model (gas reservoir) to create pressure, and leakage is monitored at the top of the model (the third permeable layer). The pressure is increased in increments according to a preset range, such as 5% of the original pressure of the gas reservoir, until the injected high-pressure gas breaks through the wellbore model, and leakage is detected at the top of the model.
[0038] In step 202, a curve showing the relationship between injection pressure and monitored gas volume is plotted to determine the injection pressure before the leak was detected. This pressure is then used as the temporary bottom pressure withstand value of the injection well, i.e., the bottom pressure withstand value of the injection well. The specific implementation process is as follows: Figure 3 As shown, it includes:
[0039] Step 301: Based on the gas injection pressure and the gas leakage of the overlying formation at the top of the wellbore model, plot the relationship curve between the gas injection pressure and the gas leakage of the overlying formation at the top of the wellbore model;
[0040] Step 302: Based on the above relationship curve, determine the gas injection pressure when the gas leakage of the overlying formation at the top of the wellbore model is zero;
[0041] Step 303: Determine the bottom pressure of each gas injection well as the injection pressure when the leakage of the overlying formation at the top of the wellbore model is zero.
[0042] After obtaining the bottom-hole pressure resistance value of each injection well, the formation radius affected by each injection well within each gas storage unit is determined based on the bottom-hole pressure resistance value of each injection well, the operating parameters of the underground gas storage facility, and the target upper limit pressure of the underground gas storage facility. In a specific embodiment, the formation radius affected by each injection well within each gas storage unit is determined according to the following formula:
[0043]
[0044] Among them, R ein Represents the formation radius affected by each gas injection well, in meters (m).
[0045] P Pmax The pseudo-pressure value representing the target upper limit pressure of the underground gas storage facility, in MPa. 2 / (mPa.s);
[0046] P PwfinThe pseudo-pressure value, in MPa, represents the bottom hole pressure resistance of each gas injection well. 2 / (mPa.s);
[0047] P min The lower limit pressure of the underground gas storage facility, expressed in MPa;
[0048] P max The target upper limit pressure of the underground gas storage facility, in MPa;
[0049] P sc The pressure under standard conditions is taken as 0.101325 MPa; T sc The temperature under standard conditions is taken as 293K;
[0050] B g The volume coefficient representing the gas in the underground gas storage facility;
[0051] T represents the ground temperature of the underground gas storage facility, in K;
[0052] η represents the pressure conductivity coefficient of the underground gas storage formation;
[0053] t in The injection time for each injection well is represented in days (d).
[0054] r w Represents the wellbore radius of each gas injection well, in meters (m).
[0055] e represents the natural constant, with a value of 2.71828.
[0056] Using the above formula, after determining the formation radius affected by each injection well within each gas storage unit, the increased working gas volume for each gas storage unit is determined based on the formation radius and the target upper limit pressure of the underground gas storage. In practice, the increased working gas volume for each gas storage unit is calculated by substituting the formation radius and the target upper limit pressure of the underground gas storage into the traditional material balance equation. In a specific embodiment, the traditional material balance equation is:
[0057]
[0058] Wherein, G represents the increased working gas volume of each gas storage unit;
[0059] Represents the formation porosity of each injection well, as a decimal.
[0060] c t The compressibility coefficient of the formation rock for each injection well, 1 / MPa;
[0061] h represents the formation thickness of each injection well, in meters (m).
[0062] Bg a volume coefficient representing gas in the underground gas storage;
[0063] P min a lower limit pressure representing the underground gas storage, MPa;
[0064] P max a target upper limit pressure representing the underground gas storage, MPa;
[0065] R ein a radius of stratum affected by each gas injection well, m.
[0066] After the increased working gas volume of each gas storage unit is determined, the increased working gas volume of the underground gas storage is determined according to the increased working gas volume of each gas storage unit. In specific embodiments, the increased working gas volume of the underground gas storage can be obtained by adding the increased working gas volumes of multiple gas storage units in a cumulative manner.
[0067] A specific example is given below to illustrate how the increased working gas volume of the underground gas storage due to the increase of the upper limit pressure is determined. The example is applied to a specific gas storage, and the steps for determining the increased working gas volume due to the increase of the upper limit pressure are shown in Fig. 1, which include: Figure 4
[0068] 1) A wellbore model is made to simulate high-pressure gas injection at the bottom of the well, and the temporary and short-term pressure resistance value at the bottom of the well is tested.
[0069] The specific process is as follows: ① The configuration relationship of the lithology and thickness of the three sets of permeable layers and the interlayer above the gas storage layer is determined according to the actually drilled geological stratification. ② The stratum models are made respectively and are superimposed according to the configuration relationship to form a geological model considering the gas storage layer and its overlying strata. ③ Drilling is simulated in the model to form a wellbore model, and corresponding cement is injected to simulate cementing. ④ The stratum temperature and stress environment are simulated, high-pressure gas is injected at the bottom of the wellbore model (the gas storage layer), and the gas leakage at the top of the model (the third set of permeable layers) is monitored. ⑤ The injected high-pressure gas is increased by 5% of the original pressure of the gas storage layer until the injected high-pressure gas breaks through the wellbore model and gas leakage is monitored at the top of the model. ⑥ The relationship curve between the injected pressure and the monitored gas volume is drawn, and the injected pressure before the gas leakage is found, which is used as the temporary and short-term pressure resistance value at the bottom of the gas injection well.
[0070] 2) A mathematical formula for controlling the range of the gas storage stratum of the gas injection well is established, and the range of the stratum controlled and affected by the gas injection well is solved by using the pressure resistance value of step 1) and the increased upper limit pressure and other parameters.
[0071] The bottom hole pressure value is converted into a pseudo pressure form, the expected upper limit pressure of the gas storage is converted into a pseudo pressure form, other parameters are taken as the actual operation values of the gas storage, and are substituted into the gas injection well controlled gas storage stratum range mathematical formula established in the embodiment of the application, and a stratum radius controlled and affected by the gas injection well is obtained by using a mathematical graphic method.
[0072] The gas injection well controlled gas storage stratum range mathematical formula is:
[0073]
[0074] 3) The results of 2) and the upper and lower limit pressures are substituted into a conventional material balance equation, and a value of increased working gas of the gas injection well due to the increased upper limit pressure is obtained.
[0075] 4) The total scale of the increased working gas of the gas injection well due to the increased upper limit pressure is obtained. For each gas injection well, steps 1), 2) and 3) are repeated to obtain the value of the increased working gas of each well due to the increased upper limit pressure, and the values of the above-mentioned each well are accumulated to obtain the value of the increased working gas of the entire gas storage due to the increased upper limit pressure.
[0076] 5) The above-mentioned steps are programmed to obtain a method and device for calculating the scale of the increased working gas due to the increased upper limit pressure.
[0077] Through example calculation, the gas storage has not reached the design expectation for nearly 17 years, the upper limit pressure is increased by 2 MPa to increase the working gas, and according to the algorithm of the prior art, the working gas can be increased by 100 million cubic meters. The actual operation shows that the working gas is only increased by 80 million cubic meters, and the reason is that the bottom hole pressure is too high during actual gas injection and is forced to stop injection. The actual result is close to the value of 82 million cubic meters obtained by the method provided in the embodiment of the application, which confirms that the method for calculating the scale of the increased working gas due to the increased upper limit pressure provided in the embodiment of the application is relatively reliable.
[0078] In the embodiment of the application, when the scale of the increased working gas due to the increased upper limit pressure is calculated, the algorithm of regarding the gas storage stratum as a pressure drop unit is completely broken, the gas storage stratum is split into a gas storage unit centered on the gas injection well, and the pressure imbalance problem is skillfully handled and hidden by establishing a gas injection well controlled gas storage stratum range mathematical formula, a method for calculating the stratum range affected by each gas injection well and the value of the increased working gas of each well and the entire gas storage due to the increased upper limit pressure is obtained. The method has the following four advantages:
[0079] Firstly, the whole is divided into parts, and the pressure imbalance problem of the traditional method is greatly reduced by reducing the pressure field area.
[0080] Secondly, the gas injection well controlled gas storage stratum range mathematical formula is established to further eliminate the pressure imbalance problem in the control range of the gas injection well.
[0081] Thirdly, due to the elimination of the influence of pressure imbalance, the pressure recovery time of the conventional balancing period of the gas storage can be greatly reduced, so that the rapid injection-production conversion production demand is possible, and therefore the application range is larger than that of the conventional method.
[0082] Fourthly, in the mathematical formula for establishing the control gas injection well formation range in the embodiment of the present application, not only the upper limit pressure in the traditional method is included, but also the temporary pressure resistance value of the bottom hole pressure is fully considered to prevent the safety risk of bottom hole gas leakage, and the consideration factors are more comprehensive.
[0083] The above specific application implementation is only an example, and the remaining implementation modes will not be described one by one.
[0084] Based on the same inventive concept, the embodiment of the present application also provides a device for calculating the working gas scale increased due to the increase of the upper limit pressure, and since the principle of the problem solved by the device for calculating the working gas scale increased due to the increase of the upper limit pressure is similar to that of the method for calculating the working gas scale increased due to the increase of the upper limit pressure, the implementation of the device for calculating the working gas scale increased due to the increase of the upper limit pressure can be referred to the implementation of the method for calculating the working gas scale increased due to the increase of the upper limit pressure, and the repeated parts will not be described again, and the specific structure is as shown in Figure 5 .
