Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This article relates to the field of gas field development technology, and in particular to a geological modeling method and apparatus for tight gas reservoirs in coal-bearing strata. Background Technology
[0002] The Shanxi Formation, the main stratum for tight gas reservoir development in the coal-bearing strata of the eastern margin of the Ordos Basin in China, is a deltaic sedimentary formation of marine-continental transitional facies. During the depositional period, this type of reservoir was eroded and incised by underwater distributary channels from different source directions, and laterally migrated and undulated. Sand bodies from different periods were spatially superimposed, resulting in small reservoir size, rapid lateral variation, and strong heterogeneity. In addition, due to the loess-mountain landform, the terrain is highly undulating, the surface structure is complex, crisscrossed by gullies, and thick layers of loess are developed. Seismic wave energy is absorbed and attenuated rapidly, making earthquake prediction of this type of reservoir difficult. However, the upper coal seam and lower limestone, which are sedimentary associated with the reservoir, are relatively stable and easily identifiable in seismic data. Therefore, conducting reservoir provenance studies, collecting sensitive seismic attributes or geological information of the upper sedimentary coal seam and lower limestone, predicting the distribution characteristics of the coal seam and limestone, and statistically analyzing the well logging response of the coal seam and the superposition characteristics of the lower limestone in different provenance areas are of great significance for predicting and characterizing reservoirs in different provenance areas. This is crucial for improving the accuracy of gas reservoir models and enhancing development effectiveness.
[0003] Currently, there are many tight gas modeling methods that focus on reservoir configuration and geological knowledge bases. For example, geological modeling is based on multi-well fine sandbody correlation results, combining well logging results with geological methods, and using methods such as selecting key wells to determine marker layers, which improves the accuracy of depicting the relationship between horizontal well trajectories and formation space. Alternatively, guided by high-resolution sequence stratigraphy and reservoir configuration theory, a "multi-stage constraint, hierarchical facies control, multi-step modeling" approach is adopted, analyzing from different levels, from large to small, incorporating geological constraints into the geological model as much as possible, enhancing the accuracy of inter-well sandbody prediction and improving the reliability of the three-dimensional geological model. Another approach utilizes dense well network data, employing multi-well correlation with small well spacing to predict the distribution of internal reservoir configuration, and using sequential indicator stochastic simulation under internal interface constraints to establish a sedimentary facies configuration model, etc. These techniques effectively solve the problem of fine characterization of reservoir internal structure during oilfield development and have achieved good application results in actual production. However, existing methods have the following problems:
[0004] Firstly, some methods rely on the dense well network data of gas fields, mainly targeting relatively stable sedimentary reservoirs with large sedimentary thicknesses. This is difficult to meet the current situation of small-scale reservoirs in coal-bearing strata, low seismic prediction accuracy, and poor reference value of well data.
[0005] Secondly, the main methods focus on predicting the reservoir itself, conducting detailed geological model studies, and proposing stochastic reservoir modeling under various geological constraints; however, there are few studies that supplement and constrain the reservoir by utilizing the relative relationships between the upper and lower strata that have a genetic relationship with it.
[0006] To address these existing problems, there is an urgent need to propose a high-precision geological modeling method for tight gas reservoirs in coal-bearing strata. Summary of the Invention

[0108] Example 1
[0109] The following example illustrates the geological modeling process for tight gas reservoirs in coal-bearing formations. Figure 3 As shown:
[0110] Step 301. Use relevant seismic and geological information to divide different source areas.
[0111] Sensitive seismic attributes of the upper coal seams of the reservoir, such as phase, coherence, and amplitude, as well as sensitive geological data such as heavy minerals, paleocurrent direction, and trace element information, are collected to classify the sedimentary reservoir into single-direction source areas and mixed-direction source areas controlled by different sources.
[0112] Step 302. Classify reservoirs using the relationship between coal seam quality and underlying limestone superposition.
[0113] Considering the difficulty in accurately obtaining coal seam permeability data during on-site drilling, and the need for subsequent fracturing, permeability was not used as a quality assessment parameter. The distance between the upper coal seam and the lower limestone was corrected and normalized before the reservoir was classified. R The larger the size, the better the coal seam quality. Comprehensive analysis shows that it can be divided into sand body development zones (I...) on a planar surface. R ≥0.4) and Class II reservoirs in undeveloped areas (I) R <0.4), and statistically analyzed reservoir characteristic parameters by source region, including the average length and average width of reservoirs in different source regions. The quality of the overlying coal seam of the established reservoir is shown in the following formula.
[0114]
[0115] In the formula,
[0116] I R Coal seam quality is dimensionless.
[0117] V g Gas content of coal seam, m 3 / kg;
[0118] H c The effective thickness of the coal seam after deducting interbedded gangue, in meters;
[0119] Φ C Coal seam porosity, unit: dimensionless;
[0120] TVD lime Vertical depth of limestone, unit: m;
[0121] TVD coal Vertical depth of coal seam, in meters;
[0122] A is the regional experience coefficient, which can generally be taken as 0.012.
[0123] Step 303. Determine the characteristic parameters of the mixture source region using the parameters of adjacent source regions.
[0124] The parameters required for a geological model include the magnitude and direction of the primary range, and the magnitude and direction of the secondary range. The direction of the primary range is perpendicular to the direction of the secondary range, and it aligns with the source direction. The magnitudes of the primary and secondary ranges correspond to the average length and average width of the reservoir, respectively.
[0125] Step 3031. Determine the reservoir thickness, main range magnitude, and secondary range magnitude of the sand body development zone in each single source region; the main range direction is consistent with the source direction.
[0126] The source direction of this single source region can be determined by combining sensitive seismic data and sensitive geological parameters. The magnitudes of the main and secondary ranges correspond to the average length and average width of the reservoir, respectively; the average length and average width of the single source region can be obtained statistically.
[0127] Step 3032. Determine the source direction of the mixed source region by using the reservoir thickness and source direction of the sand body development zone in the adjacent source region;
[0128] AZ=H1 / (H1+H2)*AZ1+H2 / (H1+H2)*AZ2
[0129] In the formula, H1 is the average reservoir thickness of the first source region, in meters; H2 is the average reservoir thickness of the second source region, in meters; AZ1 is the source direction of the first source region, in degrees; AZ2 is the source direction of the second source region, in degrees; and AZ is the source direction of the mixed source region, in degrees.
[0130] Step 3033. Determine the magnitude of the main range of the mixed source region by utilizing the reservoir thickness and main range magnitude of the sand body development zone in the adjacent source region;
[0131] L=H1 / (H1+H2)*L1+H2 / (H1+H2)*L2
[0132] In the formula, L1 is the main range of the first source region, in meters; L2 is the main range of the second source region, in meters; and L is the main range of the mixed source region, in meters.
[0133] Step 3034. Determine the secondary range of the mixed source region by using the reservoir thickness and secondary range of the sand body development zone in the adjacent source region;
[0134] S=H1 / (H1+H2)*S1+H2 / (H1+H2)*S2
[0135] In the formula, S1 is the magnitude of the second range of the first source region, in meters; S2 is the magnitude of the second range of the second source region, in meters; and S is the magnitude of the second range of the mixture source region, in meters.
[0136] Step 304. Establish a reservoir model for each source region based on the reservoir type.
[0137] Using the average length of the sand body development zone in different source areas as their respective primary range and the average width as their respective secondary range, with the primary range direction being the source direction and the secondary range direction being perpendicular to the source direction, different types of lithofacies models are established. Based on this, for different types of reservoirs, using actual drilled horizontal wells or control wells as the basic data, and employing the sequential indicator stochastic simulation method, porosity models for different types of reservoirs are established on the basis of the lithofacies models, thus obtaining reservoir geological models.
[0138] The technical effects of this embodiment are as follows:
[0139] 1. By combining the sensitive seismic attributes with the relative relationship between the upper coal seam and the lower limestone which are related to the sedimentary genesis of the reservoir, the reservoir can be predicted. This not only avoids the difficulty of direct prediction, but also effectively depicts the true distribution inside the reservoir, making up for the shortcomings of traditional geological models constructed using theoretical sedimentary models.
[0140] 2. The parameters required for modeling were determined separately for different source areas, and lithofacies models of sedimentary reservoirs were established. Based on the lithofacies models, the properties and characteristics of the reservoirs were simulated, which improved the accuracy of reservoir characterization in geological models.
[0141] Example 2
[0142] Taking the DJ gas field as an example, the S sand body in the DJ gas field is a braided river delta front sedimentary type. The geological modeling process and results of the tight gas reservoir in the coal-bearing strata using the technical solution of this application are as follows:
[0143] 1. Use seismic geological data to divide different source areas
[0144] Determine the seismic sensitivity properties of the overlying coal seam, such as Figure 4 The diagram shows a plan view of the sensitive seismic attributes. Based on the determined sensitive seismic attributes and sensitive geological information, the sedimentary reservoirs controlled by different sources are divided into single-direction source areas and mixed-direction source areas (the darker areas in the north and south are single-direction source areas, while the lighter-colored areas in the middle are mixed-direction source areas). The resulting plan view of the source areas is shown below. Figure 5 As shown. There can be multiple source regions in a single direction and multiple source regions in a mixed direction. For example, the DJ gas field can be divided into a northern source region, a southern source region, and a mixed source region in a single direction based on its sensitive seismic attributes. Figure 6 These are seismic profiles of developed and undeveloped sand bodies. Developed sand bodies exhibit significant downcutting characteristics on the seismic attribute profiles, while undeveloped sand bodies do not. Figure 7 This diagram illustrates the relative relationship between coal seams and underlying limestone in different source regions. The reservoir is located between the upper coal seam and the lower limestone. In the southern source region, the coal seam is relatively close to the underlying limestone, and the coal seam is relatively concentrated; in the northern source region, the coal seam is relatively far from the underlying limestone, and the coal seam is relatively concentrated; while in the mixed source region, from the southern source region to the northern source region, the relative distance between the coal seam and the underlying limestone increases, and the coal seam begins to bifurcate.

[0155] 3. Determine the characteristic parameters of the mixture source region by utilizing the interrelationships between adjacent source regions.
[0156] The sediment sources in different areas of the S sand body in the DJ gas field are different. The northern source area comes from the north, and the southern source area comes from the south. With 0° as true north and 180° as the south, the source direction (AZ), main range (L), and secondary range (S) of the mixed area are determined by the following formula.
[0157] H1: Average reservoir thickness in the first source region, 6.7m;
[0158] H2: Average reservoir thickness in the second source region, 3.5m;
[0159] L1: The main variable range of the first source region, 1100m;

[0163] AZ1: Source direction of the first source region, 0 degrees;
[0164] AZ2: The source direction of the second source region, 180 degrees;
[0165] AZ=6.7 / (6.7+3.5)*0+3.5 / (6.7+3.5)*180=61.7 degrees
[0166] L=6.7 / (6.7+3.5)*1100+3.5 / (6.7+3.5)*420=866.7m
[0167] S=6.7 / (6.7+3.5)*60+3.5 / (6.7+3.5)*110=77.2m
[0168] 4. Establish reservoir models by differentiating reservoir types based on provenance.
[0169] The average length of sand body development zones in different source areas is taken as their principal range, and the average width as their secondary range. Different types of lithofacies models are then established, such as... Figure 8 As shown in the figure, the dark areas represent sand body development zones. Based on the established lithofacies model, for reservoirs in different source areas, using actual drilled horizontal wells or control wells as base data, a sequential indicator stochastic simulation method is used to establish reservoir porosity models based on the lithofacies model, resulting in a three-dimensional geological model of the reservoir, as shown below. Figure 9 As shown, this three-dimensional geological model can be a porosity model.
[0170] The sedimentary sources differ across different areas of the S sandstone body in the DJ gas field. The northern source area originates from the north, with 0° as the primary range direction and 90° as the secondary range direction; the primary range for sandstone development is 1100 meters in average length, and the secondary range is 60 meters in average width. The southern source area originates from the south, with 180° as the primary range direction and 270° as the secondary range direction; the primary range for sandstone development is 420 meters in average length, and the secondary range is 110 meters in average width. The mixed source area has 61.7° as the primary range direction and 151.7° as the secondary range direction; the primary range for sandstone development is 866.7 meters in average length, and the secondary range is 77.2 meters in average width.
[0171] The geological modeling method for tight gas reservoirs in coal-bearing strata proposed in this application is designed for reservoirs with small scale and high prediction difficulty. The upper part of the reservoir has a stable coal seam, and the lower part has a stable limestone seam. Therefore, it proposes to indirectly use the relative relationship between the upper coal seam and the lower limestone, which has a sedimentary genetic connection with the reservoir, to predict the reservoir distribution and then establish a three-dimensional geological model. The method first collects sensitive seismic attributes and sensitive geological information of the upper coal seam of the reservoir. Based on the coal seam response characteristics, the sedimentary reservoir is divided into single-direction source areas and mixed-direction source areas controlled by different sources. Second, it collects sensitive seismic attributes and well logging parameters of the lower limestone to predict the distribution characteristics of the limestone. It then analyzes the quality of the upper coal seam and its superposition relationship with the lower limestone in detail, and divides the reservoir into two types: sand body developed areas and undeveloped areas within different source areas. Based on the data from vertical or horizontal wells that penetrate the upper coal seam of the reservoir, it statistically analyzes the characteristic parameters used to characterize the two types of sedimentary reservoirs and establishes lithofacies models for the two types of sedimentary reservoirs in different source areas. Finally, based on the lithofacies models, it simulates the attribute characteristics of the two types of reservoirs to obtain a high-precision geological model of the reservoir.
