The fracturing transformation volumes of the two wells Y1 and Y2 were obtained, which were: the fracturing transformation volume SRV of the Y1 well was 51462m 3 The SRV of the fracturing transformation volume of Well Y2 is 44677m 3 .
[0119] Subsequently, for the target wells, the fracturing construction pumping parameters of Well Y1 and the on-site geological parameters were used as the fracturing transformation plan.
[0120] 2) During the well shut-in stage, the bottom hole flow pressure data of Y1 (well shut-in for 60 days) and Y2 (well shut-in for 30 days) were counted, the pressure drop and the double logarithm of the pressure drop derivative were analyzed, and the double logarithm curves of the pressure drop and its natural logarithm derivative during the well shut-in period of Y1 and Y2 were drawn. The full well imbibition energy volume V of Y1 was calculated. ef =52236m 3, the full well imbibition energy volume V of Y2 is calculated ef =50894m 3 .
[0121] For the target wells, the full-well imbibition energy enhancement volume of Well Y1 is larger, so the shut-in time of the target well can be selected as 60 days.
[0122] 3) In the flowback stage, the flowback system of Y1 well was collected: after the well was opened, 2.5mm-3mm nozzle was used for blowback. Daily liquid production was 67.5m 3 . Y2 well flowback system: After the Y2 well is opened, a 3mm-4mm nozzle is used for blowback. Daily liquid production is 90m 3 By statistically analyzing the flowback data, the oil production contribution fracture volume of wells Y1 and Y2 was calculated. After calculation, the oil production contribution matrix pore volume (DRV) of well Y1 is 224.9×10 4 m 3 ; The oil production contribution matrix pore volume (DRV) of Well Y2 is 200.38×10 4 m 3 .
[0123] For the target wells, the oil production contribution of Well Y1 is larger. Therefore, the flowback system of the target well can choose 2.5mm-3mm oil nozzle for blowback, with a daily liquid production of 67.5m 3 .
[0124] 4) During the well opening and production stage, the production system of well Y1 is collected: well Y1 has been in long-term self-flowing production, and when the wellhead pressure reaches 3MPa, it is converted from self-flowing production to pumping production. Production system of well Y2: well Y2 has been in long-term self-flowing production, and when the wellhead pressure drops to 0MPa and self-flowing production is no longer possible, it is converted to pumping production. By statistically analyzing the long-term production data, the recoverable reserves of each well of wells Y1 and Y2 are calculated. After calculation, the recoverable reserves of well Y1 = 6.14×10 4 Tons; the recoverable reserves of Y2 well = 3.77 × 10 4 ton.
[0125] For the target wells, the single well recoverable reserves of Y1 well are larger. Therefore, the target wells can be switched from self-flowing oil production to pumping oil production when the wellhead pressure is 3MPa.
