Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application belongs to the field of rock evaluation, and particularly relates to a method for quantitatively evaluating micro-compressibility of a tight sandstone reservoir. BACKGROUND

[0002] Quantitative evaluation of reservoir compressibility has very important guiding significance for engineering sweet spot optimization and fracturing reconstruction design optimization of deep tight sandstone reservoirs. At present, the research mainly adopts macro rock mechanics parameters and mineral content brittleness index to quantitatively evaluate the compressibility of tight sandstone reservoirs. First, the rock mechanics parameters, as one of the important evaluation indexes, not only affect the formation and evolution of natural fractures, but also control the expansion of artificial fractures. At present, the rock mechanics parameters are mainly obtained by experimental testing means to obtain static parameters or calculated by using geophysical logging data to obtain dynamic parameters.

[0003] The former uses triaxial rock mechanics experiment to simulate the three-dimensional stress state of deep strata by loading the confining pressure on the rock sample, measures the axial and lateral strain and axial load of the rock sample by using the sensor until the rock sample is damaged, and finally calculates the static rock mechanics parameters by using the obtained stress-strain curve. The latter uses the longitudinal and transverse wave velocities and density data in the array acoustic logging data to obtain the dynamic rock mechanics parameters reflecting the mechanical properties of the stratum under instantaneous loading. In view of the characteristics that the dynamic rock mechanics parameter data are large and the static rock mechanics parameters are relatively more real, a mathematical model is established to correct the dynamic and static rock mechanics parameters, so as to obtain the continuous rock mechanics distribution under the stratum condition.

[0004] The mineral content brittleness index method is to quantitatively characterize the reservoir compressibility by calculating the content of brittle minerals (such as quartz and carbonate minerals) in the tight sandstone reservoir. Finally, the rock mechanics parameters and the brittleness index are used to comprehensively establish a reservoir compressibility index model, so as to realize the quantitative characterization of the compressibility of the tight sandstone reservoir.

[0005] The complex microstructure and mineral composition inside the tight sandstone make it have strong heterogeneity. At the same time, the tight sandstone is influenced by the mineral type, sediment source and environmental mechanical properties during its formation, and the micro-pores, micro-fractures and fractures developed inside the tight sandstone all lead to the strong anisotropy of the mechanical properties of the tight sandstone. At present, the rock mechanics parameters of the reservoir are obtained by using triaxial rock mechanics experiment and other methods, and the heterogeneity of the tight sandstone reservoir is not fully considered, which leads to large discreteness of the experimental data, and a large number of experimental data are needed to overcome this problem.

[0006] But the traditional experiment needs large size core and cannot be reused, combined with the high cost and difficulty of drilling core, it is difficult to obtain a large number of cores under normal circumstances. In order to eliminate the influence of anisotropy on the experimental results, the vertical bedding direction and the direction with a certain angle with the bedding are sampled respectively, which has great difficulty in sample preparation and low success rate, so that the reliability of the experimental results cannot be effectively improved. Due to the influence of wellbore quality, drilling fluid system and other factors, the rock mechanics parameters calculated by acoustic logging data have large error, which is difficult to meet the design of drilling and completion and numerical simulation analysis. Moreover, the mechanical properties, content and micro mechanical properties of minerals or organic matter will strongly affect the rock mechanics properties of the reservoir, and the above method cannot obtain the rock mechanics properties of single mineral and accurately represent the rock mechanics properties of the rock with natural weak structural plane.

[0007] For the calculation of brittleness index, only the mineral types and their contents are considered, and the internal fabric and weak structural plane of the rock are not fully considered, and the definition of brittle mineral is still ambiguous at present, so the brittleness characteristics of the rock cannot be accurately represented.

[0008] Therefore, the above methods cannot provide stable and reliable technical support for the quantitative evaluation of the compactness of the tight sandstone reservoir. SUMMARY

[0009] In order to solve the problems of large error of test value of macro rock mechanics parameters caused by the heterogeneity of the tight sandstone reservoir in the background art, and the low accuracy of comprehensive fracturing property evaluation model caused by the insufficient consideration of the influence of natural weak structural plane such as natural fracture and bedding on the compactness of the tight sandstone reservoir, the present application provides a quantitative evaluation method for micro compactness of the tight sandstone reservoir.

[0010] The nanoindentation experiment overcomes the shortcomings of high cost and difficulty in obtaining core in the existing rock mechanics test technology. The equivalent rock mechanics parameter model of micro mineral component complex is established to improve the accuracy of the rock mechanics parameters of the strong heterogeneous tight sandstone. The quantitative evaluation index of the development degree of the natural weak structural plane is constructed by considering the influence of the natural micro fracture, bedding and other natural weak structural planes on the compactness of the tight sandstone reservoir. The quantitative comprehensive evaluation model of the reservoir compactness under the coupling of multiple factors is established by comprehensively considering the mechanical parameters of the minerals, the characteristics of the mineral components and the natural weak structural planes.

[0011] A quantitative evaluation method for micro compactness of the tight sandstone reservoir, comprising the following steps:

[0012] Step 1: analyze the mineral components of the tight sandstone reservoir by using X-ray diffraction (XRD) whole rock analysis technology and energy dispersive X-ray fluorescence spectrum (EDS) technology, and determine the proportion of each mineral component.

[0013] Step two: The sample is cut according to the requirements of the nanoindentation experiment. The sample needs to be a small piece with an intact interior. Microscopic imaging technology is used to target the nanoindentation experiment of the selected mineral.

[0014] Step three: The load-displacement curve (P-h curve) during the nanoindentation process is recorded. The Oliver-Pharr (O-P) method is used to identify the elastic modulus E, indentation hardness H, and fracture toughness K. The specific calculation method is as follows:

[0015]

[0016]

[0017]

[0018] For the indentation crack clear pressure point, the fracture toughness K is determined according to the radial crack length generated by the indenter on the surface of the specimen. The specific calculation method is as follows:

[0019]

[0020] For the indentation crack shape complex, length difficult to measure of pressure point, generally using energy analysis method to determine the fracture toughness K, the specific calculation method is as follows:

[0021] U t =U e +U PP +U c =U e +U ir

[0027] Step four: a calculation model of equivalent rock mechanical parameters of the tight sandstone mineral component complex is established, the micro elastic modulus parameters, hardness parameters and fracture toughness parameters of the tight sandstone are combined according to different mineral types, and then the scale is upgraded, and the specific calculation method is as follows:

[0028]

[0029]

[0030]

[0031] In the formula, E z is the elastic modulus of the tight sandstone after scale upgrading, MPa; E1, E2, E3, E4 and E5 are the elastic moduli of clay minerals, quartz, potassium feldspar, plagioclase and calcite in the tight sandstone, MPa;

[0032] H z is the rock hardness of the tight sandstone after scale upgrading, MPa; H1, H2, H3, H4 and H5 are the hardnesses of clay minerals, quartz, potassium feldspar, plagioclase and calcite in the tight sandstone, MPa;

[0033] K z is the fracture toughness of the tight sandstone after scale upgrading, MPa·m1 / 2; K1, K2, K3, K4 and K5 are the fracture toughnesses of clay minerals, quartz, potassium feldspar, plagioclase and calcite in the tight sandstone, MPa·m1 / 2;

[0034] f1, f2, f3, f4, f5 are the contents of clay minerals, quartz, potassium feldspar, plagioclase and calcite in the deep dense sandstone, and f1+f2+f3+f4+f5=1

[0035] Step five: considering the natural microcrack and the development degree of bedding, a corresponding mathematical model is established, and finally the above two parameters are integrated to obtain an index model reflecting the development degree of natural weak structure surface, and the specific process is as follows:

[0036] (1) The development degree of microcracks is quantitatively described by using the natural microcrack surface density, and the formula is as follows:

[0037]

[0038] In the formula, I Z is the natural microcrack surface density; l is the length of a single crack; n is the number of visible microcracks on the slice; and AB is the area of the slice.

[0039] (2) The regression model is established by using quartz and calcite minerals which respond to stress weak surface, and the bedding development index is calculated:

[0040] S Z =f(f2, f5)

[0041]

[0042] In the formula, S Z is the bedding development index, f2 is the content of quartz, and f5 is the content of calcite.

[0043] (3) The natural microcrack surface density I Z and the bedding development index S Z are integrated to establish the natural weak structure surface index which can quantitatively evaluate the influence of microcracks and bedding on the compactibility of dense sandstone reservoirs:

[0044]

[0045] In the formula, F Z is the natural weak structure surface index; S Z is the bedding development index; and I Z is the natural microcrack surface density.

[0046] Step six: when establishing the comprehensive compactibility evaluation model, each evaluation index E Z , H Z , K Z , F Z has different dimensions, and the range transformation standardization method is needed for normalization processing. The normalized elastic modulus E Zj , the normalized hardness H Zjand normalized natural structure weakness index F Zj is a positive index, normalized fracture toughness K Zj is a negative index. The specific calculation method is as follows:

[0047]

[0048]

[0049]

[0050]

[0051] Step seven: using the normalized parameters to establish the final compacted sandstone reservoir comprehensive compressibility model, and using the analytic hierarchy process to compare each other to determine the relative importance of each element in each level and the scale, to establish the judgment matrix with the scale value, to determine the characteristic vector of the judgment matrix by using the sum product method, and the elements in the characteristic vector are the weight coefficients of the four parameters. The specific calculation method is as follows:

[0052] J=aE Zj +bH Zj +cK Zj +dF Zj

[0053] a+b+c+d=1

[0054] In the formula, a, b, c, d, e are the weight coefficients of various characteristic parameters reflecting the compressibility of compacted sandstone reservoir.

[0055] The calculated compressibility index can divide the compacted sandstone reservoir into the following three types: the compressibility coefficient is distributed in 0-0.3 for grade III reservoir, indicating poor compressibility; the compressibility index is distributed between 0.3-0.6 for grade II reservoir, indicating general compressibility; when the compressibility index is between 0.6-1, it is grade I reservoir, indicating good compressibility, and the actual production after fracturing is used to verify the accuracy of the compressibility model.

[0056] Beneficial effects:

[0057] The present application is based on the measurement of micro rock mechanics parameters of different minerals by nanoindentation experiment and scale upgrading of the equivalent rock mechanics parameters of mineral component synthesis, which not only solves the problems of high cost and difficult sample preparation in conventional rock mechanics parameter measurement experiment, but also solves the problems of large data dispersion and low accuracy caused by the heterogeneity of dense sandstone from the micro scale. At the same time, when building the comprehensive compressibility index model, the influence of the easily ignored natural weak structural surface on the reservoir compressibility is considered, and the natural weak structural surface index is established. The compressibility of deep dense sandstone reservoir can be more comprehensively, reasonably and accurately predicted, which can provide more scientific basis for the subsequent optimization of dense sandstone reservoir fracturing and sweet spot evaluation.

[0058] The analysis of dense sandstone reservoir mineral components and the targeted nanoindentation experiment by using X-ray diffraction (XRD) whole rock analysis technology and energy dispersive X-ray fluorescence spectroscopy (EDS) technology in steps one and two well solve the problems of high cost, long time consumption and difficult core sample acquisition in conventional triaxial rock mechanics experiment, and the micro rock mechanics properties of different mineral components are measured in a targeted manner.

[0059] The calculation model of equivalent rock mechanics parameters of dense sandstone component synthesis is established in step four to perform scale upgrading of micro rock mechanics parameters, which effectively solves the problem of low reliability of mineral content brittleness index caused by unclear brittle minerals, and more reasonably represents the real brittleness characteristics of dense sandstone. It fully considers the heterogeneity of dense sandstone reservoir, thereby weakening the influence of factors such as mechanical properties of minerals, mineral component content on the macro rock mechanics parameters of dense sandstone, so that the scale upgraded rock mechanics parameters have higher accuracy.

[0060] The natural weak structural surface index model is established by integrating the development degree of natural micro cracks and the development degree of bedding in step five, so as to quantitatively represent the influence of natural structural weak surfaces such as micro cracks and bedding on the compressibility of dense sandstone reservoir, so that the subsequent compressibility model has higher reliability and higher feasibility.

[0061] The normalization processing of each evaluation index of compressibility and the establishment of the compressibility index model of dense sandstone reservoir are performed in steps six and seven, the dimension of all parameters is unified by the range transformation standardization method, the unified evaluation under different meaning parameters is realized, the weight coefficients of the four parameters are determined by using the analytic hierarchy process, so that the compressibility model is more scientific. According to the size range of the compressibility index, the dense sandstone reservoir is divided into three categories, which more intuitively evaluates the compressibility, and provides reliable scientific basis and theoretical support for the exploration and development research of dense sandstone reservoir fracturing and sweet spot evaluation.
