[0029] Figure 1is a flowchart of a method for determining an energy sufficient boundary of an anticline reservoir provided by the embodiment of the present application. The embodiment can be applicable to the case of determining an energy sufficient area of an anticline reservoir. The method can be executed by an anticline reservoir energy sufficient boundary determination device which can be realized in the form of hardware and / or software and can be configured in an electronic device for determining an anticline reservoir energy sufficient boundary. As shown in Figure 1 , the method comprises:

[0030] S110: determining geological data and development data of the anticline reservoir.

[0031] The geological data can be set according to actual needs. For example, the geological data can include a supply edge radius of the anticline reservoir. The geological data can also include an inner oil-water boundary radius of the anticline reservoir, reservoir thickness, reservoir permeability, formation crude oil viscosity, and formation pressure at the supply edge. The development data can be set according to actual needs. For example, the development data can include well spacing, bottom hole flowing pressure threshold, and maximum liquid volume of the oil well. The development data can also include a target oil production of the oil well.

[0032] S120: determining at least one annular well row data according to the supply edge radius in the geological data, the well spacing in the development data, and the number of oil wells in each annular well row.

[0033] For example, the present scheme can determine at least one annular well row data according to the supply edge radius in the geological data, the well spacing in the development data, and the number of oil wells in each annular well row. The number of oil wells in each annular well row can also be set according to actual needs. The annular well row data can include well spacing of the annular well row, bottom hole radius, and ring radius of the annular well row. For example, the present scheme assumes that the oil wells are arranged in annular well rows from the supply edge of the reservoir to the inside, the supply edge radius is r e , the well spacing of each row of oil wells is L, the number of oil wells in each annular well row is represented by n1, n2, …, n n , the ring radius of each annular well row is represented by r1, r2, …, r n , the oil wells in the same annular well row are uniformly distributed, the well spacing of each annular well row is 2d n = 2π×r n / n n , the well spacing of different well rows can be different, the bottom hole radius of each oil well, the target oil production of the oil well, and the bottom hole flowing pressure in the same annular well row are the same. The ring radius of the first row of oil wells is r e -L, and the ring radius of each subsequent well row is r n =r n-1L (n≥2), when the ring radius of the (n-1)th row of oil wells is equal to the row spacing, 1 oil well is deployed in the center of the reservoir, that is, the nth row of wells is a well in the center of the reservoir. When the ring radius of the (n-1)th row of oil wells is less than the row spacing, the nth row of oil wells is no longer deployed in the reservoir, and at this time, the reservoir has n-1 ring rows of wells. The development data of the anticline reservoir and the ring row data can be represented as shown in Table 1:

[0034] Table 1

[0035]

[0036] S130: determining the bottom hole flowing pressure of each ring row of wells according to the geological data, the development data, and each ring row data.

[0037] In this scheme, the bottom hole flowing pressure of each ring row of wells can be determined according to the geological data, the development data, and each ring row data. Then, the differential equations of the bottom hole flowing pressure between any two adjacent ring rows of wells are combined into an equation group, and the equation group is solved to determine the bottom hole flowing pressure of each ring row of wells.

[0038] In this embodiment, the bottom hole flowing pressure of each ring row of wells can be determined according to the geological data, the development data, and each ring row data. The method comprises the following steps: determining the differential equation of the bottom hole flowing pressure between each adjacent ring row of wells based on the equivalent seepage resistance method; combining each differential equation to obtain a differential equation group; inputting the geological data, the development data, and each ring row data into the differential equation group to obtain the bottom hole flowing pressure of each ring row of wells; the geological data comprises the reservoir thickness, the reservoir permeability, the formation crude oil viscosity, and the formation pressure at the supply edge of the anticline reservoir; the development data comprises the target oil production of the oil well; and the ring row data comprises the well spacing of the ring row of wells, the bottom hole radius, and the ring radius of the ring row of wells.

[0039] For example, the equivalent seepage resistance method in reservoir engineering can be used to list the production formula of each row of wells. The differential equations of the bottom hole flowing pressure between each adjacent row of wells are combined to obtain an equation group, and the bottom hole flowing pressure of each row of wells is solved. The differential equation of the bottom hole flowing pressure from the supply edge of the reservoir to the first row of oil wells is:

[0040]

[0041] The differential equation of the bottom hole flowing pressure from the first row of oil wells to the second row of oil wells is:

[0042]

[0043] The differential equation of the bottom hole flowing pressure from the second row of oil wells to the third row of oil wells is:

[0044]

[0045] The pressure difference equation of the bottom-hole flowing pressure from the n-2th row of oil wells to the n-1th row of oil wells is:

[0046]

[0047] Only when the n th row of oil wells is the center well of the reservoir, otherwise, the reservoir has n-1 annular well rows. The pressure difference equation of the bottom-hole flowing pressure from the n-1th row of oil wells to the center well of the reservoir is:

[0048]

[0049] Where, the reservoir thickness, reservoir permeability, formation crude oil viscosity and formation pressure at the supply edge of the anticline reservoir are represented by h, k, μ, p e respectively, the target oil production of the i th row of oil wells, the bottom-hole radius of the i th row of annular well rows and the annular radius of the i th row of annular well rows are represented by q i , r wi , r i respectively, and the formation pressure at the supply edge is represented by p e . By combining the above formulas, the bottom-hole flowing pressures of each well row can be solved: p wf1 , p wf2 , p wf3 , p wf4 , …, p wf(n-1) and p wfn (only when the n th row of wells is the center well of the reservoir) The bottom-hole flowing pressure calculation formula of each well row is as follows:

[0050]

[0051]

[0052]

[0053]

[0054] The bottom-hole flowing pressure of the n th row of oil wells is:

[0055]

[0056] Therefore, by using the equivalent seepage resistance method to process the geological data and development data of the reservoir, the bottom-hole flowing pressures of each annular well row are obtained, which can provide reliable data sources for subsequent steps.

[0057] S140: determining the energy sufficient boundary of the anticline reservoir based on each of the bottom hole flowing pressures and a bottom hole flowing pressure threshold in the development data.

[0058] The bottom hole flowing pressure threshold can be the minimum bottom hole flowing pressure allowed for normal production, and the bottom hole flowing pressure threshold can be set according to actual needs. The scheme can determine the energy sufficient boundary of the anticline reservoir based on each of the bottom hole flowing pressures and the bottom hole flowing pressure threshold. For example, the scheme can determine the bottom hole flowing pressure that is the same as the bottom hole flowing pressure threshold in each of the bottom hole flowing pressures, and then determine the annular radius of the annular well row corresponding to the bottom hole flowing pressure, and take the annular radius as the energy sufficient boundary of the anticline reservoir. Alternatively, the scheme can regress the annular radius of each annular well row and the bottom hole flowing pressure to obtain a regression curve reflecting the relationship between the annular radius and the bottom hole flowing pressure, and then determine the annular radius corresponding to the bottom hole flowing pressure threshold through the regression curve, and take the annular radius as the energy sufficient boundary of the anticline reservoir.

[0059] In the embodiment, optionally, the determination of the energy sufficient boundary of the anticline reservoir based on each of the bottom hole flowing pressures and the bottom hole flowing pressure threshold comprises: taking the bottom hole flowing pressure that is the same as the bottom hole flowing pressure threshold in each of the bottom hole flowing pressures as a target bottom hole flowing pressure; determining a target annular well row associated with the target bottom hole flowing pressure; determining the annular radius of the target annular well row according to the annular well row data, and taking the annular radius of the target annular well row as the energy sufficient boundary of the anticline reservoir.

[0060] In the embodiment, optionally, the determination of the energy sufficient boundary of the anticline reservoir based on each of the bottom hole flowing pressures and the bottom hole flowing pressure threshold comprises: taking the bottom hole flowing pressure that is the same as the bottom hole flowing pressure threshold in each of the bottom hole flowing pressures as a target bottom hole flowing pressure; determining a target annular well row associated with the target bottom hole flowing pressure; determining the annular radius of the target annular well row according to the annular well row data, and taking the annular radius of the target annular well row as the energy sufficient boundary of the anticline reservoir.

[0061] Thus, by taking the bottom hole flowing pressure that is the same as the bottom hole flowing pressure threshold in each of the bottom hole flowing pressures as a target bottom hole flowing pressure, determining a target annular well row associated with the target bottom hole flowing pressure, and determining the annular radius of the target annular well row according to the annular well row data, and taking the annular radius of the target annular well row as the energy sufficient boundary of the anticline reservoir, the scheme can accurately determine whether the reservoir can be developed completely relying on natural energy, and can clearly determine the range of insufficient reservoir energy.

[0062] In one possible implementation, optionally, determining the energy sufficient boundary of the anticline reservoir based on the wellbore flowing pressures and the wellbore flowing pressure threshold value includes: if it is determined that there is no wellbore flowing pressure identical to the wellbore flowing pressure threshold value among the wellbore flowing pressures, performing regression calculation on the annular radii and the wellbore flowing pressures of the annular well rows to obtain regression results; processing the regression results based on a difference calculation method to obtain a target radius corresponding to the wellbore flowing pressure threshold value; and taking the target radius as the energy sufficient boundary of the anticline reservoir.

[0063] For example, if there is no annular radius identical to the wellbore flowing pressure threshold value among the annular radii of the annular well rows that have been determined, the present application can perform regression calculation on the annular radii and the wellbore flowing pressures of the annular well rows to obtain regression results, such as a regression curve, reflecting the relationship between the annular radius and the wellbore flowing pressure, and then process the regression curve based on a difference calculation method to determine an annular radius corresponding to the wellbore flowing pressure threshold value, which is taken as the energy sufficient boundary of the anticline reservoir.

[0064] Therefore, by if it is determined that there is no wellbore flowing pressure identical to the wellbore flowing pressure threshold value among the wellbore flowing pressures, performing regression calculation on the annular radii and the wellbore flowing pressures of the annular well rows to obtain regression results; processing the regression results based on a difference calculation method to obtain a target radius corresponding to the wellbore flowing pressure threshold value; and taking the target radius as the energy sufficient boundary of the anticline reservoir. It can be achieved that the development of the reservoir can be determined whether it can rely on natural energy completely, and the range of insufficient energy of the reservoir can be determined.

[0065] In another possible implementation, optionally, after determining the energy sufficient boundary of the anticline reservoir based on the wellbore flowing pressures and the wellbore flowing pressure threshold value in the development data, the method further includes: determining an energy sufficient area of the anticline reservoir according to the energy sufficient boundary.

[0066] In the present application, after determining the energy sufficient boundary of the anticline reservoir based on the wellbore flowing pressures and the wellbore flowing pressure threshold value in the development data, the energy sufficient area of the anticline reservoir can be determined according to the energy sufficient boundary. For example, the area between the supply edge of the anticline reservoir and the energy sufficient boundary is taken as the energy sufficient area of the anticline reservoir, and the other area between the energy sufficient boundary and the center of the reservoir is taken as the area of insufficient natural energy of the reservoir.

[0067] Therefore, by determining the energy sufficient area of the anticline reservoir according to the energy sufficient boundary. It can be achieved that the range of insufficient energy of the reservoir can be determined.

[0068] In another feasible implementation, optionally, determining the energy-sufficient region of the anticline reservoir based on the energy-sufficient boundary includes: using the area of ​​the region determined by the energy-sufficient boundary as the region radius as the energy-deficient region of the anticline reservoir; determining the area of ​​the anticline reservoir based on the supply edge radius; and using the difference between the area of ​​the region and the energy-deficient region as the energy-sufficient region of the anticline reservoir.

[0069] For example, such as Figure 2 As shown, the supply edge radius is r e =3000m, the energy sufficiency limit for anticline reservoirs is r 界限 =2200m. In this scheme, the area of ​​the region determined by the energy-sufficient boundary of 2200m can be used as the energy-deficient region of the anticline reservoir; the area of ​​the anticline reservoir is determined according to the supply edge radius of 3000m, and the difference between the area of ​​the region and the energy-deficient region is used as the energy-sufficient region of the anticline reservoir. That is, the area between the supply edge and the energy-sufficient boundary of the anticline reservoir is used as the energy-sufficient region of the anticline reservoir.

[0070] Therefore, by defining the energy-deficient region of the anticline reservoir as the area determined by the energy-sufficient boundary as the regional radius; determining the regional area of ​​the anticline reservoir based on the supply edge radius; and defining the energy-sufficient region of the anticline reservoir as the difference between the regional area and the energy-deficient region, the energy-sufficient range of the anticline reservoir can be clearly determined.

[0071] The technical solution of this invention involves determining geological and development data for anticline reservoirs; determining at least one annular well row based on the supply edge radius in the geological data, the well spacing in the development data, and the number of wells in each annular well row; determining the bottomhole flowing pressure of each annular well row based on the geological data, development data, and the bottomhole flowing pressure threshold in the development data; and determining the energy sufficiency limit of the anticline reservoir based on the bottomhole flowing pressure and the bottomhole flowing pressure threshold in the development data. By implementing the solution provided by this invention, it is possible to accurately determine whether a reservoir can be fully developed using natural energy and to clarify the range of energy insufficiency in the reservoir.

[0072] To more clearly illustrate the technical solution of the present invention, the method for determining the energy sufficiency limit of an anticline reservoir in the embodiments of the present invention may include the following steps:

[0073] Step 1: Determine the geological and development data of the anticline reservoir.

[0074] Step 2: Determine at least one annular well row data based on the supply edge radius in the geological data, the well row spacing in the development data, and the number of wells in each annular well row.

[0075] Step 3, determining the bottom hole flowing pressure of each annular well row according to the geological data, development data and each annular well row data.

[0076] Step 4, determining the energy sufficient boundary of the anticline reservoir based on the bottom hole flowing pressure and the bottom hole flowing pressure threshold in the development data.

[0077] Step 5, determining the energy sufficient area of the anticline reservoir according to the energy sufficient boundary.

[0078] Exemplarily, the scheme takes a typical marine sandstone reservoir in A oilfield as an example, but a main fault develops in the south of the oilfield, which complicates the oil reservoir into a faulted anticline reservoir, but it can be regarded as a part of the complete anticline reservoir. The representative reservoir parameters of the oilfield are selected for illustration. The geological data of the typical reservoir in A oilfield is shown in Table 2:

[0079] Table 2

[0080] reservoir supply edge radius, r e (m)]]> 3000 Radius of oil-water contact within the reservoir, (m) 2400 Reservoir permeability, k (mD) 7000 Reservoir thickness, h (m) 9 Formation crude oil viscosity, μ (mPa-s) 110 Formation pressure, p, at the reservoir supply edge e (MPa) 13.76

[0081] Based on the above geological basic parameters of the typical reservoir in A oilfield, in order to effectively develop the reserves outside the inner oil-water contact surface, the wells are arranged from the inner oil-water contact surface (with a radius of 2400 m), the row spacing is selected as 400 m, the uniform annular well row is arranged, and one oil well is arranged at the center of the reservoir. In order to facilitate the example and simplify the calculation, the well spacing of each annular well row is 419 m, the bottom hole radius is 0.1 m, and the single well target production is 23.85 m 3 / d. Due to the sand production of the reservoir, the minimum bottom hole flowing pressure (bottom hole flowing pressure threshold) allowed by all the production wells in the normal production of the reservoir is 10.2 MPa. The annular well pattern design and production control parameter table of the typical reservoir in A oilfield is shown in Table 3:

[0082] Table 3

[0083]

[0084]

[0085] The bottom hole flowing pressure of each well row is calculated by using the method when the target production of the oil well is 23.85 m 3 / d. The bottom hole flowing pressure of each well row of the annular well pattern of the typical reservoir in A oilfield is shown in Table 4:

[0086] Table 4

[0087] Well row Row 1 Row 2 Row 3 Row 4 Row 5 Row 6 Row 7 Annular radius of the annular well row, (m) 2400 2000 1600 1200 800 400 400 Bottom hole flowing pressure of this well row, (MPa) 11.05 9.76 8.70 7.88 7.28 6.90 6.76

[0088] As can be seen from Table 4, the bottom hole flowing pressures of the well rows from the 2nd row and the subsequent rows are all less than the minimum bottom hole flowing pressure (bottom hole flowing pressure threshold) 10.2 MPa allowed by oil well production, that is, the regions from the 2nd row to the inside of the oil reservoir are all energy deficient regions. Based on the data in Table 4, the bottom hole flowing pressure at 2200 m is 10.2 MPa by the difference calculation method, that is, the region from the supply edge of the oil reservoir to r 界限 =2200 m is a natural energy sufficient range, and the other regions are oil reservoir energy deficient regions.

[0089] The technical scheme of the embodiment of the present application is based on the abstraction or extension of the complex structure form of the actual oil reservoir to the complete anticline oil reservoir, uniformly designs the annular production well pattern, adopts the equivalent seepage resistance method in the oil reservoir engineering, and deduces the bottom hole flowing pressure calculation equation of each well row under the arbitrary multiple well rows. Compared with other methods, the oil reservoir energy sufficient limit can be quickly determined. Meanwhile, the method is verified by the oil reservoir numerical model and the actual production dynamic. The method can determine whether the oil reservoir can be completely developed by relying on the natural energy, clearly defines the energy deficient range of the oil reservoir, that is, the region needing water injection to supplement the energy, and has good application value for the reasonable development mode research of the marine sandstone oil field.
