Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application belongs to the technical field of oil and gas field exploitation, and relates to a method for calculating effective thickness of an oil reservoir, in particular to a method for calculating effective thickness of a thick blocky oil / gas reservoir. BACKGROUND

[0002] In conventional oil and gas field reserve evaluation, the average effective thickness of the calculation unit is determined by using the isopleth area weighting method, well point area weighting method and arithmetic mean method according to the effective thickness drilled by the well point. The effective thickness is a key core parameter of an oil and gas field, which determines the distribution and size of the oil and gas field. Therefore, the prediction and evaluation of the effective thickness are of great significance to the researches such as oil and gas field reserve evaluation, development plan and development layer perforation.

[0003] CN113850007A discloses a method and system for predicting effective oil layer thickness of an oil reservoir based on finite element analysis, which comprises: constructing a finite element analysis model of the oil reservoir according to the dimensionless size on the spatial domain of the oil reservoir and the dimensionless time on the time domain, taking the dimensionless pressure as the boundary condition of the model; calculating the effective oil layer thickness H m of any oil reservoir under the condition that the dimensionless predicted pressure corresponding to each applied time is operated with the measured pressure at the inlet of the oil extraction equipment corresponding to each actual time point to obtain the total deviation value of the actual pressure corresponding to the effective oil layer thickness H m of the oil reservoir under the condition that the dimensionless predicted pressure corresponding to each applied time is operated with the measured pressure at the inlet of the oil extraction equipment corresponding to each actual time point to obtain the total deviation value of the actual pressure corresponding to the effective oil layer thickness H

[0004] CN101937108A discloses a method for determining the reserves of a low-permeability clastic rock oil and gas reservoir, which comprises: determining the lower limit values of the oil and gas layer material, oiliness and electrical property corresponding to the industrial oil and gas flow by statistically regressing the existing oil and gas test well daily oil and gas production, water data and corresponding oil layer material, oiliness and electrical property data; determining the minimum value of the sand body thickness of the yield according to the relationship between the effective thickness and the oil test yield and the relationship between the sand body thickness and the test yield; and determining the area boundary of the oil and gas reservoir by using the sandstone thickness isopleth method and the effective thickness isopleth method.

[0005] As described above, in the conventional oil and gas field reserve evaluation process, the average effective thickness of the calculation unit is determined by using the contour area weighting method, the well point area weighting method and the arithmetic mean method according to the effective thickness drilled by the well point. However, when the number of wells in the oil field is small, and the exploratory well and the evaluation well are located at the high position of the oil and gas field, the limited drilling cannot represent the real situation of the whole oil and gas reservoir. For example, the effective thickness determined by using the well point arithmetic mean method or the well point area weighting method has a large error. Moreover, for the thick blocky oil reservoir, it has a large oil-water transition zone, and the effective thickness is affected by multiple parameters such as the oil-water interface, the gas-water interface, the structure change, the formation thickness and the reserve-production ratio. In the process of drawing the effective thickness contour, there is a large error, especially in the oil-water transition zone and the gas-water transition zone, and there is a defect that the effective thickness is larger than the actual formation thickness.

[0006] Therefore, for the thick blocky oil / gas reservoir, it is necessary to provide a calculation method of the effective thickness with higher precision. SUMMARY

[0007] The purpose of the present application is to provide a calculation method of the effective thickness of the thick blocky oil / gas reservoir, which can overcome the defect that the transition zone range is large in the thick blocky oil / gas reservoir, and the effective thickness of the oil and gas reservoir cannot be accurately measured, and improve the precision of the determination of the effective thickness of the thick blocky oil / gas reservoir. The "thick layer" in the present application generally refers to the oil layer thickness ≥ 50 m.

[0008] In order to achieve the purpose of the present application, the following technical scheme is adopted:

[0013] (4) The contour distribution of the oil / gas fullness ratio in the transition zone is determined according to the distribution range of the transition zone;

[0014] (5) According to the isopleth distribution of the oil / gas filling ratio of the inner oil / gas boundary, the outer oil / gas boundary and the transition zone, the isopleth distribution function F(x, y) of the oil / gas filling ratio of the oil / gas reservoir is obtained;

[0015] (6) According to the storage-to-area ratio of the oil / gas bearing layer of the single well, the plane function RTG(x, y) of the storage-to-area ratio is calculated;

[0027] Preferably, the oil / gas filling ratio P(x, y) is calculated by the following formula:

[0028] P(x, y) = [H(x, y) - S(x, y)] / [T(x, y) - B(x, y)];

[0029] Wherein S(x, y) is the grid data of the oil / water or gas / water interface.

[0030] Preferably, the contour distribution of the oil / gas filling ratio in the transition zone is determined by P(x, y).

[0031] Preferably, the reservoir-to-formation ratio RTG of the single-well oil / gas bearing zone in step (6) is:

[0033] The H Res is the reservoir thickness at the single well, H Str is the stratum thickness at the single well; and the H Res and H Str are in meter.

[0034] Preferably, the plane function RTG(x, y) of the reservoir-to-formation ratio calculated in step (6) means that the reservoir-to-formation ratio RTG of the single-well oil / gas bearing zone is taken as the input data, the seismic attribute plane data with better correlation with the reservoir-to-formation ratio is taken as the constraint plane data, a suitable algorithm is selected, and the plane function RTG(x, y) of the reservoir-to-formation ratio is obtained.

[0035] The suitable algorithm includes but is not limited to any one of the methods such as convergence interpolation, contour interpolation, minimum curvature difference, Kriging interpolation, sequential Gaussian simulation or moving average, and a person skilled in the art can reasonably select according to the data richness, and the present application does not make too many limitations here.

[0036] For example, the calculation of the plane function RTG(x, y) of the reservoir-to-formation ratio in the present application is performed by using the Make Surface function of the Stratigraphy module under the Peterl E&P Software Platform platform.

[0037] Preferably, the oil-to-ground ratio grid data OTG(x, y) in step (7) is:

[0038] OTG(x, y) = F(x, y) x RTG(x, y).

[0039] For example, the calculation of the oil-to-ground ratio grid data OTG(x, y) in the present application is performed by using the calculator function under the Peterl E&P Software Platform.

[0040] Preferably, the planar distribution data of the effective thickness of the thick block oil / gas reservoir obtained in step (8) is the product of the formation thickness data H(x, y) and the oil-to-ground ratio grid data OTG(x, y).

[0041] As a preferred technical solution of the calculation method in the present application, the calculation method comprises the following steps:

[0053] (8) The planar distribution data of the effective thickness of thick blocky oil / gas reservoirs is calculated by multiplying the formation thickness data H(x,y) of oil / gas strata with the grid data OTG(x,y) of oil-land ratio.
