Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of shale oil exploitation and relates to a method for predicting the control degree of geological reserves in shale oil horizontal well development. Background Art

[0002] As an unconventional oil and gas resource, shale oil has become a major strategic resource both internationally and domestically. Due to the low permeability of the reservoir, it is difficult to establish an effective displacement pressure system by injecting water under the economic limit well network. At present, the "horizontal well + volume fracturing" method is usually adopted for quasi-natural energy development. Since the formation energy cannot be effectively supplemented, the production decline in the shale oil development process is large and the recovery rate is low. The geological reserve control degree is the ratio of the geological reserves controlled by the horizontal well to the actual geological reserves. The geological reserve control degree of shale oil horizontal well development is a key indicator for judging whether the development technology policy is reasonable. It is directly related to the design of horizontal well development parameters, including horizontal well length, well spacing, and fracturing parameters. It especially affects the drilling and completion investment and the development benefits of horizontal wells. Through the accurate prediction of the geological reserve control degree, it provides a basis for adjusting the development technology policy and further improving the development effect and benefits of shale oil. The closer the geological reserve control degree is to 100%, the more reasonable the technical policy is. If it is less than 100%, it means that part of the geological reserves are not controlled by horizontal wells, and it is necessary to adjust the well spacing or increase the fracturing scale. If it is greater than 100%, it means that the ability of horizontal wells to control geological reserves exceeds the actual geological reserves, and it is necessary to increase the well spacing or reduce the fracturing scale.

[0003] At present, the degree of geological reserve control is usually measured by numerical simulation. Through the fitting of block geological modeling and numerical simulation, the number of grids to be used is determined according to the change of grid fluid saturation, and the geological reserves in the grids are calculated to achieve the quantification of controlled geological reserves. However, the numerical simulation method requires fine geological modeling and accurate data such as fluids, reservoirs and phase permeability curves. In particular, it is difficult to quantitatively describe the fractures in the geological model after large-scale fracturing, and the accuracy of numerical simulation is also questioned. At the same time, the research cycle of geological modeling and numerical simulation is long and the cost is high. How to quickly and cost-effectively accurately predict the degree of geological reserve control of shale oil horizontal wells is a technical problem that needs to be solved urgently. Summary of the invention

[0024] Step 2.2: By testing the compression coefficient of the shale oil core in the target block, the rock pore volume compression coefficient at the original formation pressure and the saturation pressure is obtained. The average value of the two is the average pore volume compression coefficient C of the reservoir rock from the original formation pressure to the saturation pressure. f ;

[0025] Step 2.3, the basic high-pressure physical properties of crude oil and gas obtained in step 2.1 and the average pore volume compressibility coefficient obtained in step 2.2 are substituted into formula (5) to obtain the recovery factor of the unsaturated shale oil reservoir during the whole life cycle of depletion development.

[0026] Step 2.1 is implemented as follows:

[0027] Step 2.1.1, testing the total hydrocarbon components of the crude oil and the produced gas after ground degassing by gas chromatography;

[0028] Step 2.1.2, using phase calculation simulation software to perform oil and gas combined calculation on the total hydrocarbon components of the ground degassed crude oil and produced gas, the original gas-oil ratio, and the density of the ground degassed crude oil obtained in step 2.1.1, to obtain the formation crude oil components;

[0029] Step 2.1.3, dividing the formation crude oil components obtained in step 2.1.2 into components to obtain a pseudo-component split crude oil model;

[0030] Step 2.1.4, using phase state software to perform phase state calculation on the split crude oil model of the pseudo-component obtained in step 2.1.3 to obtain characteristic parameters of the split crude oil model of each pseudo-component, wherein the characteristic parameters of the split crude oil model of each pseudo-component include: molecular weight, density, critical temperature, critical pressure, deviation factor, and volume shift coefficient;

[0034] The specific process of step 3 is:

[0035] Based on the actual monthly production data, use Excel to make a scatter plot with the cumulative oil production as the horizontal axis and the daily oil production of a single well as the vertical axis. Select at least 12 months of data from late to early to add a trend line. The trend line type is a straight line. According to the regression formula, calculate the recoverable reserves of a single well in the elastic development stage;

[0043] The criteria for judging the degree of geological reserve control are as follows:

[0044] 1) If γ = 100%, it means that the development technology policy is reasonable, which is an ideal state;

[0045] 2) If γ < 100%, it indicates that part of the geological reserves are not controlled by horizontal wells;

[0046] When 90%<γ<100%, it indicates that the geological reserve control degree of horizontal wells is high, and it is recommended to maintain the current development technology policy;

[0047] When 70%≤γ≤90%, it indicates that the geological reserve control degree of horizontal wells is moderate. It is recommended that the distance between horizontal wells for new wells in the same area be reduced by 10%-30% or the scale of fracturing be increased by 10%-30%;

[0048] When γ<70%, it indicates that the geological reserve control degree of horizontal wells is low. It is recommended that the distance between horizontal wells and new wells in the same area be reduced by 1-γ times or the scale of fracturing be increased by 1-γ times.

[0049] 3) If γ>100%, it indicates that the ability of horizontal wells to control geological reserves exceeds the actual geological reserves. In order to reduce investment, it is necessary to increase the well spacing or reduce the scale of fracturing.

[0050] When 100%<γ<110%, it indicates that the geological reserve control degree of horizontal wells is high, and it is recommended to maintain the current development technology policy;

[0051] When 110%≤γ≤130%, it indicates that the geological reserve control degree of horizontal wells is moderate. It is recommended that the horizontal well spacing of new wells in the same area be increased by 10%-30% or the fracturing scale be reduced by 10%-30%;

[0052] When γ>130%, it indicates that the geological reserve control degree of horizontal wells is low. It is recommended that the horizontal well spacing be increased by γ-1 times or the fracturing rule be reduced by γ-1 times for new wells in the same area.

[0053] The beneficial effect of the present invention is that the method for predicting the degree of geological reserve control in shale oil horizontal well development of the present invention only requires basic physical properties and production dynamic data of formation crude oil, produced gas and rock under different reservoir pressures, and can simply and quickly realize the prediction of the degree of geological reserve control in shale oil horizontal wells. The prediction difficulty is low and the cycle is short, and there is no need for geological modeling and numerical simulation to calculate a large amount of static and dynamic data, so the prediction cost is greatly reduced, thereby providing a basis for the formulation of shale oil horizontal well development policies.

[0126] 7) Calculate the recoverable reserves of a single well and all horizontal wells in the target area during the elastic development phase

[0127] Based on the actual monthly production data, use Excel to make a scatter plot with the cumulative oil production as the horizontal axis and the daily oil production of a single well as the vertical axis. Select at least 12 months of data from late to early to add a trend line. The trend line type is a straight line, such as Figure 6 As shown, according to the regression formula, the recoverable reserves of a single well in the elastic development stage are calculated, and the sum of the recoverable reserves of a single well in the elastic development stage is the recoverable reserves of all horizontal wells in the target block;

[0128] According to the regression results, the recoverable reserves of Well 1 and Well 2 are calculated to be 11,500 tons and 8,500 tons. According to this scheme, the recoverable reserves of Wells 3, 4, and 5 are calculated to be 12,500 tons, 13,200 tons, and 9,000 tons, respectively. The recoverable reserves of all horizontal wells in the target block are 54,700 tons.

[0129] 8) Calculate the controlled geological reserves of horizontal wells

[0130] According to formula (4), the controlled geological reserves of the horizontal well are calculated to be 720,000 tons;

[0131] 9) Calculate the control degree of geological reserves

[0132] According to formula (5), the geological reserve control degree of horizontal wells in the target block is 85.5%.

[0133] Since γ is less than 100%, it indicates that part of the geological reserves are not controlled by horizontal wells. It is judged that the control degree of geological reserves by horizontal wells is moderate. For new wells in the same area, it is recommended to reduce the horizontal well distance by 15% or increase the fracturing scale by 15%.
