Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the field of geological exploration, and in particular to a method, a device and a computer equipment for calculating the paleopressure of a clastic rock reservoir. Background Art

[0002] The restoration of paleo-pressure in sedimentary basin reservoirs is an important part of basin analysis and reservoir formation dynamics research, and plays an important role in oil and gas geological research and exploration. The research on the restoration of paleo-pressure is to calculate the formation pore pressure or pore pressure coefficient of each geological historical period during the uplift process of the reservoir based on the existing geological data, analytical test data and the history of formation sedimentation and burial.

[0003] A variety of methods for restoring paleopressure have been developed, which can be roughly divided into the following categories: (1) Using fluid inclusions to restore reservoir paleopressure, the paleopressure at the time of fluid capture is obtained by using the equilibrium relationship between the homogenized temperature and fluid composition of hydrocarbon inclusions and brine inclusions of the same period. Common methods include: calculating the capture pressure of oil inclusions using PVT-sim software and calculating the capture pressure of gas inclusions using the laser Raman shift method. These methods often restore the paleopressure of a single geological period and a single phase, not the paleopressure of reservoirs in continuous geological periods and mixed phases. They are also not applicable to reservoirs with few or small inclusions and no captured inclusions during the tectonic uplift period. (2) Using mudstone acoustic time difference data, based on the principle of irreversible mudstone compaction, the paleopressure at the maximum burial depth of the mudstone formation can be derived. Common methods include the equivalent depth method. These methods can only estimate the formation pore pressure at the maximum burial depth. (3) Using PetroMod , BasinMod and other basin simulation software to restore the paleopressure characteristics of single wells, profiles and planes. This method is based on the backstripping model. In order to obtain reasonable calculation results, a large amount of evolution data from geological history is often required. However, these data are difficult to obtain and require a lot of debugging and testing. (4) For carbonate rock formations that lack oil inclusions and gaseous hydrocarbon inclusions, calcite twins can be used as paleopressure gauges. Combined with fracture analysis, suture roughness and rock mechanics parameters, the differential paleostress method can be used to restore the evolution of paleofluid pressure. This method can only qualitatively analyze whether there is paleo-overpressure, and cannot quantitatively calculate the paleopressure values ​​of reservoirs in different historical periods. (5) Other methods include estimating paleopressure using mineral veins, estimating the formation pressure of clay minerals based on the formation temperature and actual curves of clay minerals, and the tectonic stress method used to study the paleopressure of reservoirs under tectonic compression. These methods are all based on certain assumptions and can only qualitatively estimate the size of paleopressure.

[0004] In summary, most of the existing reservoir paleopressure calculation methods have limitations and are only applicable to qualitative estimation or specific areas. The more reliable quantitative calculation methods, such as the calculation of paleopressure using laser Raman shift of fluid inclusions, require a large number of microscopic fluid inclusion observations and tests, but can only calculate the reservoir paleopressure value at the historical moment of inclusion filling. The paleopressure of other historical periods is based on the fitting and estimation of test points. At present, there is still a lack of a paleopressure quantitative calculation method for clastic reservoirs that is suitable for multi-phase mixed accumulation and considers the continuity of historical time evolution.

[0076] The second expression satisfies V pt =V ft , ΔV p =ΔV f , ΔV f =V f0 -V ft ;

[0077] Further derivation through the formula, the second expression can be changed to:

[0080] Furthermore, in clastic reservoirs, the pore fluid is mainly a mixed phase fluid composed of formation water and natural gas, and its thermal expansion coefficient α f and the compression factor β f It can be expressed by formula and Brie empirical formula respectively:

[0081] α f =(1-S w )·α fg +S w α fw

[0082]

[0083] In the formula, β fw , β fg are the compression coefficients of formation water and natural gas, respectively, which are a priori values; α fw , S w is the thermal expansion coefficient and water saturation of formation water, which are a priori values; m is the empirical coefficient, which is a priori value; α fg is the thermal expansion coefficient of natural gas, which can be obtained through the ideal state equation of gas:

[0084]

[0085] Where, T t are the formation temperatures at any geological time t.

[0086] The rock pores are always filled with fluid before and after the formation is uplifted, and the change in pore volume is equal to the change in fluid volume, that is, the following relationship exists:

[0087] V pt =V ft

[0088] ΔV p =ΔV f

[0089] Where V pt 、V ft are the pore volume and fluid volume at time t, respectively; ΔV p , ΔV f are the pore volume increment and fluid volume increment, respectively.

[0090] S3: Based on the first expression and the second expression, and the relationship between the pore volume change and the fluid volume change, a functional relationship between the rock formation compaction coefficient, the change in effective stress, and the temperature and pressure of the formation pore fluid is established, which is a third expression;

[0091] C pct ·Δσ efft =β f (P p0 -P pt )-α f (T0-T t )+α f (T0-T t )·β f (P p0 -P pt )

[0092] S4: Based on the calculation expression of the change in effective stress and the third expression, a calculation formula for the reservoir paleopressure at any geological time t is established, which is the fourth expression:

[0095] In step S4, the calculation expression of the change in effective stress is:

[0096] Δσ efft =[(P rt -P pt )-(P r0 -P p0 )].

[0097] S5: Obtain the rock formation compaction coefficient, overburden formation pressure and formation temperature at any geological historical time, combine the current measured formation temperature, pressure and overburden formation pressure of the reservoir, and calculate the reservoir paleopressure according to the fourth expression.

[0101] Table 1 Core experimental sample information of a single well in the Craton Sedimentary Basin

[0102] Sample No. Depth(m) Lithology YP01 3500 Tight sandstone

[0103] Optionally, in step S511, the method for testing the compaction coefficient and porosity of the rock formation is: using a PoroPDP-200 overburden porosity measuring instrument to test the compaction coefficient and porosity of the rock formation using a helium method.

[0104] S512: Rock formation compaction coefficient C of clastic rock samples measured under different effective stresses PC Discrete values ​​( Figure 2 ), it can be seen that the rock formation compaction coefficient is well correlated with the effective stress of rock, and the property of effective stress acting on the rock skeleton is the same as the property of the rock as a whole when the confining pressure and pore pressure act together. Therefore, the correlation between effective stress and rock formation compaction coefficient fitted by experimental data can be used to predict the rock formation compaction coefficient in various historical periods.

[0105] S513: According to the rock formation compaction coefficient C PC and effective stress σ eff The power relationship is fitted to obtain the power relationship coefficient a, which has a good fit ( Figure 2 ); Select the rock sample YP01, the correlation between its effective stress and rock formation compaction coefficient is the fifth expression:

[0106]

[0107] In the formula, C pc is the rock formation compaction coefficient, Pa -1 ; σ eff is the effective stress, MPa.

[0108] S514: For clastic rock samples, the compaction process is mainly mechanical compaction, and the porosity change is directly related to the magnitude of the effective stress. According to a series of discrete values ​​of rock porosity and effective stress ( Figure 3 ), the power relationship between porosity and effective stress was fitted by the power fitting method, and the power relationship coefficients b and c were obtained. The determination coefficient (R-square) was 0.9891. Figure 3 It can be seen that the matching effect is good; the effective stress is calculated using the porosity of the historical period, which is the sixth expression:

[0109] σ eff = bφ c

[0110] In the formula, σ eff is the effective stress, MPa; φ is the porosity, %.

[0111] S515: According to the fifth expression and the sixth expression, the relationship between the rock formation compaction coefficient and the porosity is obtained, which is the seventh expression:

[0112]

[0113] In the formula, C pc is the rock formation compaction coefficient, Pa -1 ; φ is porosity, %; a, b, c are discrete value fitting coefficients; the seventh expression is used to obtain the rock stratum compaction coefficient at any geological historical time.

[0114] Optionally, in step S515, the fitting coefficient a can be obtained from Figure 2 The fitting coefficients b and c can be read from Figure 3 For the sample numbered YP01, a is 0.0000005, b is 574.74, and c is -2.385.

[0115] S516: Based on any geological history time t and stratum depth H t The functional relationship of is used to calculate the stratigraphic depth at any geological time:

[0116] H t =f(t)

[0117] Optionally, any geological history time t and stratigraphic depth H t The functional relationship can be simulated according to the basin burial history diagram ( Figure 4 ) is obtained. For example, the current burial depth of sample YP01 is 3500m. When t = 100Ma, the maximum burial depth H t It is 4013m.

[0118] S517: Based on the current depth-sound-measured porosity relationship index model, calculate the porosity φ at any geological history time t t :

[0119]

[0120] Where φ0 is the porosity at current normal pressure, a priori value; e is the base of the natural logarithm, a priori value; k is the compaction factor, a priori value; H t is the stratigraphic depth at any geological time t; H0 is the current stratigraphic depth, a priori value;

[0121] S517: Convert the rock stratum compaction coefficient and porosity in the seventh expression into values ​​at any geological historical time t, that is, obtain a calculation formula for the rock stratum compaction coefficient at any geological historical time:

[0122]

[0123] In the formula, φ t is the porosity at any geological history time t, and the rock stratum compaction coefficient at any geological history time is obtained by the above formula.

[0124] S52: Obtain the overburden stratum pressure at any geological history time. The specific calculation formula is as follows:

[0125] P rt =ρ s ·H t ·g

[0126] In the formula, ρ s is the empirical value of shallow stratum density, which is a priori value and is taken as 2.65 g / cm 3 ;H t is the depth of the stratum at any geological time t; g is the gravitational acceleration, which is 9.8 m / s 2 For example, the current burial depth of sample YP01 is 3500m, and when t=100Ma, the maximum burial depth H t When the overlying stratum pressure is 4013 m, P rt = 104.2MPa.

[0127] Alternatively, the overburden pressure at any geological time can be calculated based on the basin simulation burial depth-geological time evolution diagram ( Figure 4 )get.

[0128] S53: Obtaining the stratum temperature at any geological history time, the specific acquisition method is: obtaining according to the basin thermal history simulation temperature-geological time evolution diagram ( Figure 5 ).

[0129] S54: Based on the rock formation compaction coefficient, overburden formation pressure and formation temperature at any geological historical time obtained in steps S51-S53, combined with the current measured formation temperature, pressure and overburden formation pressure of the reservoir, the reservoir paleopressure is calculated according to the fourth expression.

[0130] The paleopressure value ( Figure 6 The solid line in the figure is highly consistent with the paleopressure value at the maximum burial depth restored by the mudstone equivalent depth method (the data points in Figure 6). This method can accurately calculate the paleopressure value of clastic reservoirs. It has stronger applicability and practicality than previous methods, and can continuously calculate the paleopressure values ​​of various historical periods, which has certain industrial application value.

[0131] This embodiment, through the analysis of the test data of the overburden porosity and rock formation compaction coefficient of the tight sandstone rock sample of the single well reservoir, combined with the definition of the rock formation compaction coefficient, deduced and established a theoretical formula to characterize the change of the rock formation compaction coefficient with depth (time) during the tectonic uplift period; fully considering the coexistence of multiphase fluids under formation conditions, the theoretical equation of the change in the volume of pore fluids in the closed system before and after the tectonic uplift was derived, and the calculation formula of the reservoir paleopressure was solved. Taking the current measured reservoir pressure and temperature as the starting point, combined with the simulated formation thermal evolution history paleotemperature curve, the reservoir paleopressure value during the entire tectonic uplift period is calculated.

[0132] This embodiment proposes a method for calculating paleopressure in clastic reservoirs, aiming at the current difficult problem of universal applicability and continuous paleopressure quantitative calculation in clastic reservoirs. This method calculates paleopressure based on volume increment, which solves the problem that the previous paleopressure quantitative calculation methods rely on microscopic fluid inclusion observation and testing, and it is difficult to continuously calculate the paleopressure in various geological historical periods. By comparing the paleopressure values ​​simulated and calculated by the method of the present invention with the paleopressure values ​​of the maximum burial depth period restored by the mudstone acoustic time difference method or the paleopressure results restored by the fluid inclusion laser Raman test, it can be seen that this method achieves better results in restoring the paleopressure values ​​of the reservoir during the tectonic uplift period, has stronger applicability and practicality than previous methods, and can continuously calculate the paleopressure values ​​of the entire tectonic uplift period, and has certain industrial application value.
