Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the field of well logging, in particular to a deep high-quality sandstone reservoir identification method based on well logging curve fusion. BACKGROUND

[0002] In the continental basin depression zone of western China, the buried depth of oil-bearing formations is generally greater than 5000 meters, the strata are subjected to stable subsidence and compaction, and the reservoirs generally have the characteristics of low porosity, but in some areas and sections, the high-quality reservoirs with good physical properties are developed under the control of overpressure and dissolution, which are beneficial to the enrichment and accumulation of oil and gas, so the identification of high-quality reservoirs is the key to the exploration of deep oil and gas reservoirs.

[0003] At present, the identification of high-quality sandstone reservoirs is mainly carried out by using longitudinal wave impedance and transverse wave impedance to construct attribute factors, but in deep layers with large burial depth, the strata are subjected to strong compaction, the velocity relationship of sandstone and mudstone is mixed, and it is difficult to effectively distinguish sandstone and high-quality reservoirs by using wave impedance.

[0004] In the Chinese patent application with application number CN201810170342.6, a tight sandstone reservoir effective reservoir identification method is disclosed, which is characterized by the following steps: identifying the lithology of the reservoir; determining the lithology type of the effective reservoir; obtaining the effective reservoir discrimination curve; and dividing the reservoir according to the effective reservoir discrimination curve to determine the effective reservoir. The invention can overcome the drawbacks of misjudgment and low identification accuracy of conventional well logging methods in identifying effective reservoirs of tight sandstone reservoirs, and can accurately and quickly distinguish effective reservoirs, greatly improving the accuracy of identifying effective reservoirs of tight sandstone reservoirs.

[0005] In the Chinese patent application with application number CN201710303114.7, a calcareous sandstone reservoir pore type identification method is disclosed, which includes the following steps: identifying the lithology of calcareous sandstone, selecting the calcareous sandstone dry layer section, obtaining the acoustic porosity curve and density porosity curve, correcting the density porosity curve and acoustic porosity curve through the porosity correction curve, and identifying the pore type that meets the proportion condition in the calcareous sandstone reservoir by using the difference between the density porosity and the acoustic porosity. The lithology identification standard and the corresponding relationship between the difference and the pore type that meets the proportion condition are summarized through experiments. After the establishment of the lithology identification standard and the corresponding relationship, no more samples need to be collected, and the method has good adaptability to calcareous sandstone reservoirs with strong heterogeneity, overcoming the difficulty of identifying or dividing the pore type of calcareous sandstone in the past due to the lack of core and thin section data, large number of wells, and large amount of rock selection, widening the identification area, and being easy to master.

[0006] In the Chinese patent application with the application number CN201410601495.3, a method for identifying fractures in tight sandstone reservoirs is disclosed, which belongs to the field of logging technology for identifying fractures by using conventional logging data. By analyzing the relationship between the characteristic parameters of single-well fracture logging response, the correlation characteristic parameters of single-well fracture identification are established, and then the weighted arithmetic mean method is used to construct the fracture comprehensive evaluation model parameter, i.e. the fracture comprehensive index, so as to identify the fractures in the single-well fracture-identified tight sandstone reservoir section by analyzing the size of the fracture comprehensive index. The method for identifying fractures in tight sandstone reservoirs can accurately and reliably identify the fracture section, thereby providing a basis for the reasonable and effective development of tight sandstone oil and gas reservoirs.

[0007] The above prior art is quite different from the present application, and cannot solve the technical problems we want to solve. Therefore, we have invented a new method for identifying deep high-quality sandstone reservoirs based on logging curve fusion. SUMMARY

[0008] The purpose of the present application is to provide a method for identifying deep high-quality sandstone reservoirs based on logging curve fusion, which is based on the logging response characteristics of deep sandstone favorable reservoirs, and optimizes two curves of natural gamma and acoustic time difference. Through curve fusion, the development section of high-quality reservoirs can be accurately identified.

[0009] The purpose of the present application can be achieved by the following technical measures: a method for identifying deep high-quality sandstone reservoirs based on logging curve fusion, which comprises:

[0010] Step 1: According to the drilling and logging data obtained by drilling, a natural gamma and lithology correlation chart is established.

[0011] Step 2: According to the oil testing and core physical property analysis data of drilling, an oil testing conclusion and reservoir porosity correlation chart is established.

[0012] Step 3: The acoustic time difference values of the sandstone development section are counted, and the functional relationship between the acoustic time difference and the porosity is fitted, and the acoustic time difference value corresponding to the lower limit of the porosity is calculated.

[0013] Step 4: The acoustic time difference curve is reconstructed, the natural gamma curve and the reconstructed acoustic time difference curve are fused, and the discrimination curve of high-quality reservoirs is obtained to identify the high-quality reservoirs.

[0014] The purpose of the present application can also be achieved by the following technical measures:

[0015] In step 1, according to the drilling and logging data obtained by drilling, the natural gamma values of sandstone and mudstone development sections are counted, the normal distribution curve of the natural gamma values of sandstone and mudstone is calculated by using histogram analysis method, and the lithology division chart is established.

[0016] In step 1, according to the natural gamma and lithology correlation chart, the limit value of the corresponding natural gamma of sandstone and mudstone is determined, and the drilling sandstone and mudstone development section is divided.

[0017] In step 2, according to the drilling oil test and core physical property analysis data, the reservoir porosity is classified and counted according to the oil test conclusion, and the oil test conclusion and reservoir porosity correlation chart is established.

[0018] In step 2, the reservoir with oil layer, oil and gas layer, oil and water layer, gas and water layer, oil water layer, gas water layer and water layer is high quality reservoir, and the reservoir with poor oil layer and dry layer is dense reservoir, according to the oil test conclusion and reservoir porosity correlation chart, the porosity limit value of high quality reservoir and dense reservoir is determined.

[0019] In step 3, the acoustic time difference value of sandstone development section is counted, and the function relationship between acoustic time difference and porosity is fitted, as follows:

[0020] D = f (Φ)

[0021] In the formula, Φ is the porosity of sandstone, unit is %, and D is the acoustic time difference value, unit is microsecond / foot.

[0022] In step 3, the acoustic time difference value corresponding to the lower limit of porosity determined in step 2 is calculated.

[0023] In step 4, according to the minimum value of acoustic time difference curve of sandstone section, the minimum value is assigned to mudstone section, and a reconstructed acoustic time difference curve is obtained.

[0024] In step 4, the natural gamma curve and the reconstructed acoustic time difference curve are fused to obtain the discrimination curve of high quality reservoir, and the fusion model of the high quality reservoir discrimination curve is as follows:

[0025]

[0026] In the formula, Z is the dimensionless value of high quality reservoir discrimination curve, GR is natural gamma, unit is API, GR min is the minimum value of natural gamma data, GR max is the maximum value of natural gamma data, SAC is the reconstructed acoustic time difference, unit is microsecond / foot, SAC min is the minimum value of reconstructed acoustic time difference data, SAC max is the maximum value of reconstructed acoustic time difference data, K is the limit value of corresponding natural gamma of sandstone and mudstone, and Φ is the lower limit value of high quality reservoir porosity.

[0027] In step 4, the sandstone section with discrimination curve less than Z is high quality reservoir, and the sandstone section with discrimination curve greater than Z is dense reservoir.

[0028] The deep high-quality sandstone reservoir identification method based on logging curve fusion in the present invention optimizes the natural gamma ray and acoustic wave time difference curves based on the logging response characteristics of favorable deep sandstone reservoirs. Through curve fusion, the development layer of high-quality reservoirs can be accurately identified.

[0029] Compared with the existing technology, the advantages of the present invention are: using the natural gamma curve to determine the sandstone development layer, establishing a functional relationship between sandstone porosity and acoustic wave time difference, determining the acoustic wave time difference threshold value of high-quality reservoirs and tight reservoirs based on the lower limit of the porosity of high-quality reservoirs, reconstructing the acoustic wave time difference curve, and fusing the natural gamma and reconstructed acoustic wave time difference curves according to the model to obtain the discrimination curve of the high-quality reservoir, overcoming the problem that it is difficult to effectively distinguish high-quality reservoirs using wave impedance, which is beneficial to guiding the exploration and development of oil and gas reservoirs. The high-quality reservoir identification method provided by the present invention is simple and effective, and is suitable for the identification and prediction of deep high-quality sandstone reservoirs.
