Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the field of quantitative characterization of tight sandstone pore structure, and in particular to a method and system for evaluating contribution of intragranular pores of minerals to porosity and permeability of tight sandstone reservoirs. Background Art
[0002] With the continuous exploitation of conventional oil and gas resources, unconventional oil and gas resources such as tight sandstone oil and gas have occupied an increasingly important position in the world energy landscape. Tight sandstone reservoirs usually refer to reservoirs with a porosity of less than 10% and a matrix permeability of less than 0.1×10 -3 μm 2 In sandstone reservoirs, the pore size is mainly nanometer-sized. Tight sandstones usually undergo strong compaction and diagenesis, which causes the primary pores to shrink significantly and be filled with filling materials. In addition to the residual primary intergranular pores, secondary pores are an important type of pores in tight sandstones, which have an important influence on the porosity and permeability conditions of tight reservoirs. Secondary pores are usually developed inside mineral particles such as feldspar, calcite, and laurelite. They are usually produced by the contact of these minerals with acidic fluids and are called mineral intragranular pores. Mineral intragranular pores increase the complexity of the pore structure of tight sandstone reservoirs and directly affect the migration, accumulation and production of oil and gas. Studying the contribution of intragranular pores of different minerals to the porosity and permeability of tight sandstone reservoirs helps to discover the "sweet spots" in the low porosity and low permeability background of tight sandstone reservoirs.
[0003] At present, the commonly used methods for measuring the pore structure of tight sandstone reservoirs include high-pressure mercury injection (MICP), nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) and computed tomography (CT). These methods can provide pore structure information of whole rock samples, but cannot identify different minerals, so it is impossible to measure the contribution of intragranular pores of a certain mineral to reservoir porosity and permeability alone. Rock casting thin section observation and scanning electron microscope-energy spectrum analysis (SEM-EDS) can effectively identify minerals and intuitively reflect the morphological characteristics of intragranular pores of minerals, but it is difficult to obtain their relationship with reservoir porosity and permeability. Usually, it is only evaluated by estimating the percentage of intragranular pores of minerals in the total porosity of the whole rock in the thin section of the reservoir rock, and detailed information on the contribution of intragranular pores of minerals to reservoir porosity and permeability cannot be obtained.
