[0002] Shale gas is a type of unconventional natural gas resource, characterized by its self-generation and self-storage. my country boasts abundant shale gas resources. After nearly a decade of development, shale gas has now been industrialized, with national shale gas production reaching 22.8 billion cubic meters in 2021. Shale gas has become a key area of ​​growth in my country's natural gas production, and vigorous development of shale gas is crucial for meeting my country's rapidly growing energy demand and promoting clean energy utilization.

[0003] Shale generally contains three types of matrices: brittle minerals (quartz, feldspar, etc.), clay minerals (illite, chlorite, etc.), and organic matter. The pores developed in shale are also primarily related to these three types of minerals and can be divided into brittle mineral pores, clay mineral pores, and organic pores. Some literature collectively refers to brittle mineral pores and clay mineral pores as inorganic pores. The development of inorganic and organic pores varies in shales at different depths and in different strata. The development of inorganic pores is primarily influenced by diagenesis, while the development of organic pores is primarily influenced by the maturity of organic matter and hydrocarbon generation.

[0004] Porosity is a key parameter in oil and gas reservoir evaluation, crucial for determining rock reservoir space, fluid saturation, and calculating geological reserves. Shale is dense, primarily characterized by micro- and nano-pores, resulting in lower porosity and permeability than conventional reservoirs.

BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0045] In order to more clearly illustrate the specific embodiments of the present invention or the technical solutions in the prior art, the following briefly introduces the drawings required for use in the specific embodiments or the description of the prior art. Obviously, the drawings described below are some embodiments of the present invention. For ordinary technicians in this field, other drawings can be obtained based on these drawings without paying any creative work.

[0046] Figure 1 A schematic flow chart of a method for determining shale multi-component matrix porosity provided in an embodiment of the present invention;

[0047] Figure 2 1 is a flow chart of step S140 in an embodiment of the present invention. DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0048] The inventors found that existing porosity testing methods can only obtain the porosity value of shale, and cannot effectively distinguish the porosity of the above-mentioned mineral components. It is impossible to clearly determine the porosity and proportion of each mineral component, which is not conducive to the calculation of rock storage space, fluid saturation and geological reserves. Therefore, the inventors made the present invention after further research and development.

[0049] Specifically, the inventors found in further research that the matrix in shale is divided into three categories: brittle minerals, clay minerals and organic matter. Since pores are developed in these three types of matrices, the pore composition can be classified.

[0050] Based on the above three-component classification method, the inventors established a shale matrix pore volume composition model. The total matrix pore volume consists of three parts, which can be expressed as:

[0051] V p =V pb ×m s ×m b +V pc ×ms ×m c +V po ×m s ×m o (1)

[0052] The shale matrix porosity is the ratio of the matrix pore volume to the rock volume. Combining equation (1), it can be expressed as:

[0053]

[0054] V t =m s / ρ s (3)

[0055]

[0056] Therefore, the shale matrix porosity composition model is finally established as follows:

[0057]

[0058] In the above equation, is the total matrix porosity of shale, %; V p is the total matrix pore volume, m 3 ; V t is the total rock volume, m 3 ; V pb is the pore volume of brittle minerals per unit mass, m 3 / t;V pc is the pore volume per unit mass of clay minerals, m 3 / t;V po is the pore volume of organic matter per unit mass, m 3 / t;m s is the total rock mass, t; m b is the mass percentage of brittle minerals in shale, %; m c is the mass percentage of clay minerals in shale, %; m o is the mass percentage of organic matter in shale, %; ρ s is the density of shale rock, t / m 3 .

[0059] According to the above theoretical deduction, if parameters such as total matrix porosity, porosity volume of each component mineral, mass percentage of each component mineral, and shale rock density can be obtained, multi-component matrix porosity can be calculated, which helps to understand the degree of shale pore development and its controlling factors, and is conducive to the calculation of rock reservoir space, fluid saturation, and geological reserves.

[0060] In order to better understand the above technical solution, the above technical solution will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific implementation methods.

[0061] The embodiment of the present invention provides a method for determining the porosity of a shale multi-component matrix. Figure 1 As shown, it includes steps S110 to S150, specifically:

[0062] Step S110 , preparing shale samples in a number not less than the number of shale components, and preparing each shale sample into two types: a plug sample and a particle sample.

[0063] In this example, the matrix in shale is divided into three categories: brittle minerals, clay minerals, and organic matter. Therefore, at least three shale samples were required. For each shale sample, a 3-4 cm long plug was prepared. The remaining sample was then crushed into 40-80 mesh particles and dried.

[0064] Step S120 : performing a preset first experiment on the plug sample of each shale sample to obtain a total matrix porosity value and a rock density.

[0065] Performing a preset first experiment on the plug sample of each shale sample may include: performing a helium porosity test on a portion of the plug samples to obtain a total matrix porosity value, and performing a rock density measurement on another portion of the plug samples to obtain a determined rock density.

[0066] Specifically, a portion of the plunger sample is placed in a gas porosimeter, the air in the pores of the plunger sample is removed, and helium of a preset pressure is applied without applying confining pressure, so that the helium enters the pores of the plunger sample; after the pressure in the pores of the plunger sample reaches equilibrium (when the equilibrium conditions are set artificially, the porosimeter device will generally automatically determine whether the pressure is balanced, such as the pressure change within 10 minutes is less than 1 psi), the porosimeter system analysis software can use Boyle's law to set the initial gas pressure and make the helium expand isothermally into the core chamber. The gas continuously diffuses into the pores inside the core, and the total matrix porosity value can be calculated based on the pressure change characteristics, the core chamber volume and the gas state equation. In specific applications, the gas porosimeter can test the sample under both confining pressure and no confining pressure. Under confining pressure, the sample is affected by the external pressure, the pores are compressed, and the measured porosity is not the total porosity. Therefore, in this embodiment, it is necessary to obtain the total porosity value under no confining pressure. For another part of the plunger samples, the plunger samples need to be placed in a rock density meter and the rock density is determined by taking the average value through multiple measurements.

[0067] Step S130 : performing a preset second experiment on the particle sample of each shale sample to obtain the mass percentage of each component in the shale, wherein the components at least include brittle minerals, clay minerals, and organic matter.

[0068] The predetermined second experiment for the particle samples of each shale sample may include: performing an X-ray diffraction experiment on a portion of the particle samples to determine the mass percentage of brittle minerals and clay minerals; performing a carbon and sulfur elemental analysis experiment on another portion of the particle samples; and performing high-temperature combustion on the particle samples after the experiment to determine the mass percentage of organic matter.

[0069] Specifically, part of the particle sample is placed in an X-ray diffractometer. After the X-ray diffraction experiment is completed, the obtained diffraction pattern can be imported into the corresponding software. The measurement results obtained according to the diffraction pattern are compared with the standard library data of the preset software to determine the mineral composition. The mineral content is determined according to the area of ​​the peak in the spectrum to obtain the mass percentage of brittle minerals and the mass percentage of clay minerals.

[0070] Another portion of the pellet samples was subjected to carbon and sulfur elemental analysis. After removing inorganic carbon with hydrochloric acid, the pellets were burned at high temperatures to convert the carbon in the samples into CO2. The CO2 content was determined by infrared detection based on the intensity of light absorbed by the gas. By dividing the carbon content in the gas by the mass of the shale sample, the total organic carbon content in the shale sample was obtained, and thus the mass percentage of organic matter (mo).

[0071] Step S140: Substitute the matrix porosity values, rock density, and mass percentages of each component of all shale samples into a preset first formula to obtain the unit mass pore volume of each component in the shale. The preset first formula is:

[0072]

[0073] in, is the total matrix porosity; V p is the total matrix pore volume, m 3 ; V t is the total rock volume, m 3 ; V pb is the pore volume of brittle minerals per unit mass, m 3 / t;V pc is the pore volume per unit mass of clay minerals, m 3 / t;V po is the pore volume of organic matter per unit mass, m 3 / t;m s is the total rock mass, t; m b is the mass percentage of brittle minerals in shale, %; m c is the mass percentage of clay minerals in shale, %; m ois the mass percentage of organic matter in shale, %; ρ s is the density of shale rock, t / m 3 .

[0074] Specifically, the matrix porosity values ​​φ and rock density ρ of all shale samples are s , the mass percentage of each component is substituted into the preset first formula to obtain the unit mass pore volume of each component in the shale, including steps S141 to S143, combined with Figure 2 As shown:

[0075] Step S141: The pore volume V of the brittle mineral per unit mass is pb 、Pore volume per unit mass of clay minerals V pc , organic pore volume per unit mass V po Set to unknown parameters.

[0076] Step S142: The matrix porosity values ​​of all shale samples are Rock density ρ s 、Mass percentage of brittle minerals in shale m b , Mass percentage of clay minerals in shale m c , mass percentage of organic matter in shale m o Substitute the preset first formula to obtain a set of pore volume V per unit mass of brittle minerals: pb 、Pore volume per unit mass of clay minerals V pc , organic pore volume per unit mass V po Preferably, the number of linear equations in the linear equation system is consistent with the number of samples.

[0077] Step S143, using the multivariate linear regression method to solve the linear equations, and obtain the unit mass brittle mineral pore volume V pb 、Pore volume per unit mass of clay minerals V pc , organic pore volume per unit mass V po .

[0078] Step S150: derive the matrix porosity of each component in the shale using a preset second formula. The preset second formula is:

[0079]

[0080] in, is the porosity of brittle minerals, is the porosity of clay minerals, is the organic matter porosity%; V p is the total matrix pore volume, m 3 ; V t is the total rock volume, m3 ; V pb is the pore volume of brittle minerals per unit mass, m 3 / t;V pc is the pore volume per unit mass of clay minerals, m 3 / t;V po is the pore volume of organic matter per unit mass, m 3 / t;m s is the total rock mass, t; m b is the mass percentage of brittle minerals in shale, %; m c is the mass percentage of clay minerals in shale, %; m o is the mass percentage of organic matter in shale, %; ρ s is the density of shale rock, t / m 3 .

[0081] After obtaining the pore volume V per unit mass of brittle minerals pb 、Pore volume per unit mass of clay minerals V pc , organic pore volume per unit mass V po Then, the matrix porosity of each component in the shale can be obtained by combining the total matrix porosity value obtained in step S120, the rock density, and the mass percentage of each component in the shale obtained in step S130 using the preset second formula.

[0082] The inventors conducted multiple experiments using the method disclosed in this embodiment. The experimental results show that the method for determining the multi-component matrix porosity of shale proposed in this embodiment is highly operable, computationally efficient, and accurate. Table 1 shows some of the experimental results.

[0083] Table 1

[0084]

[0085] The inventors discovered that existing porosity testing methods can only obtain the porosity value of shale, but cannot effectively distinguish the porosity of the above-mentioned mineral components, nor can they clearly determine the porosity and proportion of each mineral component. Therefore, through further research and development, a shale multi-component matrix porosity interpretation model was established, which clarified that the matrix porosity of each component is related to parameters such as total matrix porosity, the porosity volume of each component mineral, the mass percentage of each component mineral, and the shale rock density. The shale multi-component matrix porosity determination method proposed in the present invention can measure multiple shale samples at the same horizon. Using parameters such as total matrix porosity, the porosity volume of each component mineral, the mass percentage of each component mineral, and the shale rock density, the multi-component matrix porosity can be calculated. This helps to understand the degree of shale pore development and its controlling factors, and clarifies the size and proportion of multi-component matrix porosity in the shale at that horizon. It is suitable for determining the matrix porosity of each component shale in major blocks, and is conducive to the calculation of rock reservoir space, fluid saturation, and geological reserves.

[0086] It is understood that in other embodiments, the matrix porosity values, rock density, and mass percentages of each component of all shale samples can also be obtained by other methods. The embodiments of the present invention do not limit the specific means of obtaining the parameters. After obtaining the above parameter values, the above parameters can be substituted into the preset first formula to obtain the unit mass pore volume of each component in the shale. The preset first formula is:

[0087]

[0088] The matrix porosity of each component in the shale is obtained using the preset second formula, which is:

[0089]

[0090] in, is the total matrix porosity, is the porosity of brittle minerals, is the porosity of clay minerals, is the organic matter porosity%; V p is the total matrix pore volume, m 3 ; V t is the total rock volume, m 3 ; V pb is the pore volume of brittle minerals per unit mass, m 3 / t;V pc is the pore volume per unit mass of clay minerals, m 3 / t;V po is the pore volume of organic matter per unit mass, m 3 / t;m s is the total rock mass, t; m bis the mass percentage of brittle minerals in shale, %; m c is the mass percentage of clay minerals in shale, %; m o is the mass percentage of organic matter in shale, %; ρ s is the density of shale rock, t / m 3 .
