TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application relates to the field of shale gas well testing analysis, and particularly relates to a two-phase well testing analysis method considering Knudsen diffusion and channeling in pseudo-three-pore media. BACKGROUND
[0002] Due to the characteristics of tight and ultra-low permeability of shale gas reservoirs, in actual development, shale gas wells usually need to be fractured to form hydraulic fractures to obtain economic productivity. Shale gas reservoirs have the characteristics of low porosity and multi-scale, and the size of matrix pores ranges from several to several hundred nanometers, which makes shale gas exist in various migration modes such as Darcy flow, slippage effect and diffusion in the reservoir, and the percolation mechanism of shale gas well reservoir is very complex.
[0003] In actual development, shale gas wells are usually accompanied by the production of fracturing flowback fluid and shale gas. Due to the presence of fracturing fluid in the reservoir, the fluid flow in the reservoir is gas-liquid two-phase flow. However, most of the current research on shale gas well testing analysis only considers single-phase unstable flow in shale gas reservoirs, and does not consider the influence caused by the flow of fracturing fluid in the reservoir, which makes the accuracy of well testing interpretation insufficient. For example, the patent application with the application number 202110386841.0, "Shale reservoir well testing intelligent interpretation and analysis method and device based on deep learning", establishes a physical model for shale gas well testing. However, the model only considers single-phase gas flow and does not consider the influence caused by the flow of fracturing fluid in the reservoir. SUMMARY

[0029] Specifically, in step S2, according to as shown in Figure 2The micro-physical model shows that gas-liquid two-phase flow exists in the micro-fracture, and the gas phase and liquid phase flow equations are established respectively. Meanwhile, since the gas desorbed from the matrix surface will first enter the macro-pore of the matrix, and then flow into the micro-fracture system from the macro-pore, the gas phase flow equation of the micro-fracture also contains the flow term q of the shale gas from the macro-pore to the micro-fracture m ; then, the two-phase flow equation of the fracture system is as follows:
[0030]
[0031] In the formula, ρ g is the density of the shale gas, ρ w is the density of water, unit: kg / m 3 ; k f is the fracture permeability, unit: m 2 ; k frg is the relative permeability component of the gas phase in the r direction of the fracture, k frw is the relative permeability component of the water phase in the r direction of the fracture, k frg and k frw are fractions; P f is the pressure of the fracture system, unit: Pa; μ g is the viscosity of the gas, μ w is the viscosity of water, unit: Pa·s; φ f is the porosity of the fracture system, φ f is a small number; S g is the gas saturation in the fracture, S w is the gas saturation, S g and S w are fractions.
[0032] According to the physical model as shown in Figure 2 , two kinds of flow exist in the nanometer matrix pore, one is the Darcy flow caused by the pressure difference, and the other is the Knudsen diffusion caused by the concentration difference. Among them,
[0033] The mass flux generated by the pressure difference is: In the formula, J mp represents the mass flux generated by the pressure difference, kg / (m·s);
[0034] The mass flux generated by the concentration difference is: In the formula, J K is the mass flux generated by the concentration difference, unit: kg / (m·s); D k is the Knudsen diffusion constant, unit: m 2 / s; M g is the molar mass of the gas, unit: kg / mol; C gmN is the number of shale gas moles in the unit matrix pore volume, unit: mol / m 3 ; Z is the deviation factor of shale gas under the temperature and pressure conditions of the matrix, dimensionless; T is the temperature in the matrix, unit: K.
[0035] Therefore, the mass flux generated by the pressure field and the concentration field together is: In the formula, J is the total shale gas mass flux in the pressure field and the concentration field, kg / (m·s); at the same time, the apparent permeability k ap is introduced by combining Darcy's law, which reflects the influence of the pressure field and the concentration field on the matrix permeability. ap m +D k μC gm ; In the formula, k ap is the apparent permeability of the matrix in the pressure field and the concentration field.
[0036] Specifically, when shale gas is transported from the matrix to the microcrack in the form of non-steady-state channeling, the flow equation of the gas phase in the matrix macro-pore and the channeling flow can be expressed as: That is, the single-phase flow equation of the matrix system can be obtained; in the formula, ρ gm is the density of shale gas in the matrix, ρ gf is the density of shale gas in the crack, unit: kg / m 3 ; k mrg is the relative permeability component of the matrix gas phase in the r direction, k mrg is a fraction; p m is the pressure in the matrix pore, unit: Pa; φ m is the matrix porosity, φ m is a fraction; the adsorption and desorption amount q dif is calculated by the Langmuir isothermal adsorption equation, that is,

[0039] Thus, the two-phase flow equation of the fracture system in spherical coordinates can be expressed as:
[0040]
[0041] where k app represents the comprehensive permeability of the matrix considering both Knudsen diffusion and Darcy flow in the matrix.
[0042] 2. The single-phase flow equation of the matrix system is converted to the following form:

[0073] The fracture system two-phase flow equation and the apparent two-phase flow equation of the matrix system are simultaneously Laplace transformed, and the two-phase dimensionless pseudo-pressure difference microscopic flow equation is obtained:
[0074]
[0075] wherein,
[0076] Specifically, when the shale gas is transported from the matrix to the micro-fracture in the form of steady-state channeling, the flow equation of the gas phase in the matrix macro-pore and the channeling flow can be expressed as: The matrix system single-phase flow equation can be obtained; in the formula, ρ gm is the density of the shale gas in the matrix, ρ gf is the density of the shale gas in the fracture, the unit is kg / m 3 ; k mrg is the r-direction matrix gas phase relative permeability component, k mrg is a fraction; p m is the pressure in the matrix pore, the unit is Pa; φ m is the matrix porosity, φ m is a fraction; the adsorption and desorption amount q dif is calculated by the Langmuir isothermal adsorption equation, that is,
[0077] Further, step S3 further includes:

[0079] Thus, the two-phase flow equation in the fracture system in spherical coordinates can be expressed as:
[0080]
[0081] where k app represents the comprehensive permeability of the matrix considering both Knudsen diffusion and Darcy flow in the matrix.
[0082] 2. The single-phase flow equation of the matrix system is converted to the following form:

[0090] In order to connect the fracture equation and the matrix equation, the single-phase pseudo-pressure of the matrix system is linked with the apparent two-phase pseudo-pressure, and the following substitution is made between the matrix single-phase pseudo-pressure and the matrix apparent two-phase pseudo-pressure through a mathematical relationship:
[0091]
[0092] Then, the matrix flow equation in the spherical coordinate system is simplified by introducing the matrix gas-phase pseudo-pressure, the density of the gas, the compressibility coefficient, and the relationship between the matrix gas-phase pseudo-pressure and the matrix apparent two-phase pseudo-pressure, and the following equation is obtained:

[0112]
[0113] Combining the Laplace transform equations for the two-phase flow in the fracture system and the apparent two-phase flow equations for the matrix system, we obtain:
[0114]
[0115] Substituting the above equation into... From this, we can obtain:
[0116]
[0117] make The two-phase dimensionless pseudo-pressure difference microflow equation is then:
[0118] Specifically, in step S4, firstly, based on the two-phase dimensionless pseudo-pressure difference micro-flow equation, the corresponding two-phase dimensionless pseudo-pressure difference micro-flow equation for any cylindrical continuous point source in a circular shale reservoir is established.
[0119] By introducing Fourier finite cosine transform into the microscopic flow equation of a two-phase dimensionless pseudo-pressure difference for a continuous cylindrical point source in a circular shale reservoir, and combining this with the outer boundary case of the shale gas reservoir, the point source solution equation of the two-phase pseudo-pressure for a continuous cylindrical point source in a circular shale gas reservoir is obtained; for example... Figure 3In the physical model shown, the shale gas reservoir is a circular shale gas reservoir, and the basic assumptions for any cylindrical continuous point source in the circular shale reservoir are as follows:
[0120] (1) The top and bottom surfaces of the shale reservoir are closed, the horizontal outer boundary is infinite, the reservoir thickness is h, and the outer boundary radius of the reservoir is r e ;
[0121] (2) For the established rectangular coordinate system, a point on the bottom surface of the shale reservoir is taken as the coordinate origin, the bottom surface of the shale reservoir is the x0y plane, and the axis perpendicular to the bottom surface of the reservoir through the origin is the z axis; converted to cylindrical coordinates, only the r and z directions are considered;
[0122] (3) The horizontal permeability of the shale reservoir is k fh , and the vertical permeability is k fz ;
[0123] (4) A cylindrical element with its center at (0, 0, z w ) in the rectangular coordinate system, i.e. (0, z w ) in the cylindrical coordinate system; its radius is r, and its height is z w ;
[0124] (5) Gas and liquid phases flow into the cylindrical element from the side, and the flow rate of shale gas into the cylindrical element at the surface standard condition is q gscin , the flow rate of fracturing flowback fluid into the cylindrical element at the surface standard condition is q wscin , and the effects of capillary force and gravity are ignored.
[0125] For convenience of study, cylindrical coordinates will be used to interpret the model. Thus, the fracture two-phase flow equation can be expressed in cylindrical coordinates as follows:
[0126]
[0127] At the same time, since the assumed cylindrical element is an infinitesimal quantity, when gas and water two-phase fluid flows into it from the side, the element can be regarded as a continuous point sink, and the corresponding inner boundary condition expression is obtained as follows:
[0128]
[0129] In the formula, ρ gsc is the density of shale gas at the surface standard condition, and ρ wsc is the density of fracturing flowback fluid at the surface standard condition; the upper and lower boundary conditions are: The outer boundary condition is:
[0130] Moreover, the following two-phase dimensionless variables are introduced to simplify the above equations and boundary conditions:
[0131] The equation for the two-phase dimensionless flow in the crack in cylindrical coordinates is:
[0132] The inner boundary conditions are:
[0133] The upper and lower boundary conditions are:
[0134] The outer boundary conditions are:
[0135] After time t D After performing the Laplace transform, the two-phase dimensionless flow equation of the crack can be transformed into:
[0136]
[0137] Relating the above equation to the dimensionless fracture gas-liquid two-phase flow equation obtained in step S3 of this invention, the Lagrange variable s in the above equation is replaced as follows:
[0138]
[0139] The inner boundary conditions are:
[0140] The upper and lower boundary conditions are: The outer boundary conditions are:
[0141] For solving the initial-boundary value problem, first let:
[0142] Δm pf =R(r) D )Z(z D )
[0143] Substitute the above formula into In the middle, and combined with the closed boundary conditions at the top and bottom, using the Sturm-Liouville eigenvalue theory, we can obtain the following about z. D Eigenvalue equations:
[0144]
[0145] At the same time, according to the Sturm-Liouville eigenvalue theory, The eigenvalue is α n =(nπ) 2 Then the corresponding characteristic function system can be expressed as:
[0146] Z n (z D )=cosnπz D n = 0, 1, 2, ...
[0147] Thus, cosnπz D As the kernel function, we introduce the Fourier finite cosine transform into and define as Regarding z D The function after the Fourier finite cosine transform is given by
[0148]
[0149] The inner boundary expression is:
[0150]
[0151] The outer boundary expression is:
[0152]
[0153] Let The fracture two-phase flow equation can be written as follows:
[0154]
[0155] Since is the Bessel equation of the imaginary argument, its general solution is:
[0156]
[0157] where: a n , b n are undetermined constants.
[0158] Substituting into the inner boundary expression, we get:
[0159]
[0160] According to the properties of the Bessel function, when x→0, I1(x)=0, Thus, from the above inner boundary expression, we get:
[0161]
[0162] Thus:
[0163]
[0164] Substituting it into the outer boundary expression:
[0165] Let Then:
[0166]
[0167] Will Substitution From this, we can obtain:
[0168]
[0169] Performing an inverse Fourier cosine transform on the above equation yields the point source solution of the two-phase pseudo-pressure in the dimensionless fracture gas-liquid two-phase flow equation, namely:
[0170]
[0171] In the formula:
[0172] If the outer boundary of a shale gas reservoir is closed at the top and bottom surfaces and closed at the side surfaces, then the mass flow rate of the fluid passing through the outer boundary is 0. This can be converted into a dimensionless two-phase pseudo-pressure difference form after Laplace transform:
[0173]
[0174] at this time, If C is a constant, then δ = 0. Substituting this into the point source solution of the two-phase pseudo-pressure in the dimensionless fracture gas-liquid two-phase flow equation, we get...
[0175]
[0176] Furthermore, when the outer boundary of the shale gas reservoir is closed at the top and bottom surfaces and the outer boundary of the side surfaces, the point source solution of the two-phase pseudo-pressure of the corresponding dimensionless fracture gas-liquid two-phase flow equation is:
[0177]
[0178] In the formula, q gscins and q wscins It is usually a constant, therefore:
[0179]
[0180] If the outer boundary of a shale gas reservoir is closed at the top and bottom, and the lateral outer boundary is infinitely large, then the expression for the outer boundary is:
[0181]
[0182] Furthermore, according to the properties of Bessel functions, I0(∞)=∞, substituting... From this, we can obtain: a n =c n =0; then set a n =c n =0 Substitute In this context, when the outer boundary of a shale gas reservoir is closed at the top and bottom surfaces and infinitely large at the lateral outer boundaries, the point source solution of the two-phase pseudo-pressure in the dimensionless fracture gas-liquid two-phase flow equation is:
[0183]
[0184] Where, ρ gsc The density of gases under standard ground conditions is expressed in g / cm³. 3 ;ρ wsc The density of water at standard surface conditions, expressed in g / cm³. 3 ;q gscins q represents the flow rate of shale gas flowing into a cylindrical micro-element under standard surface conditions, expressed in m³ / s. wscins The flow rate of fracturing flowback fluid into the cylindrical micro-element under standard surface conditions is expressed in m / s; h is the thickness of the shale reservoir. k fh r represents the horizontal permeability of the shale reservoir. e r is the outer boundary radius of the shale reservoir. eD z is the dimensionless radius of the outer boundary of the shale reservoir; wD z is a dimensionless distance, which is dimensionless. D Let I0 be the dimensionless height in the z-direction; I1 and I0 are dimensionless imaginary argument Bessel functions of the first kind; K0 and K1 are dimensionless imaginary argument Bessel functions of the second kind.
[0185] Specifically, in step S5, since there are two types of shale gas wells, namely fractured vertical wells and fractured horizontal wells, and they correspond to different physical models, it is necessary to study the bottom hole pressure response of fractured vertical wells and fractured horizontal wells respectively.
[0186] like Figure 4 The physical model of the shale gas well shown is based on the following assumptions:
[0187] Assumption 1: The shale gas well is a fully fractured, infinitely conductive vertical well in a circular reservoir;
[0188] Assumption 2: The fracturing fracture is a symmetrical double-wing fracture about the wellbore, and its half-length is x. f ;
[0189] Assumption 3: Shale gas wells produce a constant surface yield q sc Or a constant bottom hole pressure p wf Production begins;
[0190] Assumption 4: The gas is slightly compressible and has a constant viscosity and compressibility coefficient; the effects of capillary force and gravity are ignored; the crack is an infinite flow channel;
[0191] Assumption condition five: taking the length of the fracture surface as the x-axis, the height of the fracture surface as the z-axis, and the y-axis perpendicular to the fracture surface to establish a rectangular coordinate system, and converting the rectangular coordinate system into a cylindrical coordinate system when calculating the bottom hole pressure;
[0192] Then, combining the assumption conditions of the physical model of the shale gas well, the point source solution of the dimensionless two-phase fracture gas-liquid flow equation is integrated along the reservoir thickness direction and then along the fracture direction to solve the shale gas well bottom hole pressure response in the Laplace space.
[0193] Specifically, if the outer boundary condition of the shale gas reservoir is that the top and bottom surfaces are closed and the side outer boundary is closed, the pressure response expression of the bottom hole of the circular reservoir fractured vertical well is:
[0194]
[0195] In the formula:
[0196] Since the trigonometric function cos(nπz wD ) has the property of integrating to 0 in the symmetric domain, and noting that Moreover, the flow distribution of the fractured vertical well is uniform, the gas well gas mass flow rate can be converted by the product of the density of shale gas, the point source intensity and the area of the fracture, and the relationship between the gas well water mass flow rate and the fracturing flowback fluid density, the point source intensity and the area of the fracture is obtained: ρ gsc q gsc +ρ wsc q wsc =2hx f (ρ gsc q gscins +ρ wsc q wscins ); combining the above relationship, the pressure response expression of the bottom hole of the circular reservoir fractured vertical well is simplified as:
[0197]
[0198] Introducing the following two-phase dimensionless variables The above expression is dimensionless, and the following is obtained:
[0199]
[0200] Substituting into the above formula, the following is obtained:
[0201]
[0202] Since the pressure response on the fracture surface is studied, y w = 0, so y wD= 0; meanwhile, in order to use the wellbore pressure dynamic distribution of the uniform flux fracture to characterize the pressure dynamic distribution of the infinite conductivity fracture, a suitable equivalent observation point needs to be selected, and its coordinates are as follows: In order to further according to the properties of the Bessel function, when α→x D | x D - α |→ 0, Therefore, at this integral interpolation point, the function value is infinite, but in fact it is bounded. In order to avoid the generation of false numerical integral results, integral transformation is needed, let Then: Therefore, the shale gas wellbore pressure response equation in the Laplace space is:
[0203]
[0204] The above formula is the dimensionless wellbore pressure dynamic distribution of the uniform flux fracture. When calculating the pressure distribution of the infinite conductivity fracture, the value of the observation point horizontal coordinate is x D = 0.732.
[0205] And if the outer boundary of the shale gas reservoir is the top and bottom surface closed and the side surface outer boundary infinite, the pressure response expression of the fractured vertical well of the circular reservoir is:
[0206]
[0207] Simplify to get: Again, substitute Further simplify to: Again, introduce Non-dimensionalization can be obtained:
[0208]
[0209] Next, substitute Into the above formula, we can get:
[0210]
[0211] Since the study of the pressure response on the fracture surface, in order to use the wellbore pressure dynamic distribution of the uniform flux fracture to characterize the pressure dynamic distribution of the infinite conductivity fracture, we can get:
[0212]
[0213] Where, α is the shape factor, dimensionless.
[0214] In addition, as shown in the physical model of the shale gas well, the assumption conditions are as follows: Figure 5
[0215] Assumption 1: The shale gas well is a fully open infinite conductivity fractured horizontal well in a circular reservoir;
[0216] Assumption 2: The total number of the fractured fractures is M, the fracture surface is perpendicular to the central axis of the wellbore horizontal section, and is distributed along the central axis of the wellbore;

[0222] Then, combined with the assumption conditions of the physical model of the shale gas well, the point source solution of the two-phase pseudo-pressure of the dimensionless fracture gas-liquid two-phase flow equation is integrated along the z direction, the line source solution of the two-phase dimensionless pseudo-pressure of Mx2N fracture units is calculated, and the line source solution of the two-phase dimensionless pseudo-pressure of the Mx2N fracture units of the fractured horizontal well and the production accumulation equation are solved to solve the shale gas well bottom hole pressure response in the Laplace space.
[0223] Specifically, the observation point is selected at the node of a certain fracture unit i The dimensionless coordinate is According to the principle of superposition of potential, the total pressure response of Mx2N discrete fracture units on M fractures at point Is equal to the superposition of the pressure response of each discrete unit at ;
[0224]
[0225] Because the seepage resistance of fluid in the infinite conductivity fracture and wellbore is far less than that in other locations of the reservoir, it is considered that the fluid flowing in the infinite conductivity fracture and wellbore does not produce pressure drop. Thus, it is known that the pseudo-pressure at any fracture discrete node is equal and equal to the bottom-hole flowing pressure, i.e.,
[0226]
[0227] Because the fractured horizontal well produces at a constant mass rate q msc , the value should be equal to the sum of the two-phase mass flow rates of all fracture discrete units, i.e., Thus,
[0228] According to the M*2N dimensionless two-phase pseudo-pressure equations and one production accumulation equation, the expression is obtained as:
[0229]
[0230] wherein, is a coefficient matrix; q Di is the two-phase dimensionless mass production on the fracture unit i, dimensionless, i = 1, 2, ···, 2N*M;
