[0027] Since the understanding of free gas is still unclear, the conventional identification method of the production characteristic of "gas is seen as soon as the well is opened" is generally used. With the exploration and development practice of deep coalbed methane, most production wells show the production characteristic of "slow production", and even the two-gas co-production wells do not show the production characteristic of "gas is seen as soon as the well is opened". It can be seen that this method has certain limitations and cannot accurately identify deep coal reservoirs containing free gas wells. An embodiment of the present invention provides a method for identifying deep coal reservoirs containing free gas wells, including: calculating a gas production index change curve of a single well to be tested; judging whether the single well to be tested meets the typical gas production index characteristics of a well containing free gas based on the gas production index change curve of the single well to be tested and a pre-established typical gas production index characteristic curve, and determining whether the single well to be tested is a well containing free gas. The present invention breaks the previous method of identifying the production characteristics of free gas wells in deep coal reservoirs, which is "gas is seen as soon as the well is opened". It points out that the production characteristics are affected by the drainage and production system, and the change in production pressure difference is the main reason for the difference in production characteristics. It innovatively proposes a method for identifying free gas wells in deep coal reservoirs based on gas production index, and promotes it to practical application on site, which has strongly promoted the development of characterization and prediction technology of "free gas sweet spots" in deep coal reservoirs, and is of great significance to the efficient exploration and development of deep coalbed methane.
[0028] Example 1 like Figure 1 As shown, this embodiment provides a method for identifying a deep coal reservoir containing free gas well, comprising the following steps: 1) Based on the coalbed gas flow mechanism and reservoir numerical simulation method, the characteristic parameters for identifying wells containing free gas were explored. It was found that the change of production pressure difference was the main reason for the difference in production characteristics. Therefore, the gas production index was determined as the characteristic parameter for identifying wells containing free gas.
[0029] Specifically, the gas production index is the gas production under unit production pressure difference, and the expression is: (1) In the formula, is the gas production index; is the gas production of coalbed methane well, in m3 / d; is the average formation pressure, in MPa; It is the bottom hole flowing pressure, in MPa.
[0030] 2) Based on the material balance equation, the average formation pressure of the deep coal reservoir is calculated, and then the gas production index of the deep coal reservoir is calculated, and a typical gas production index characteristic curve is established, which is as follows: 2.1) Calculation of water saturation in deep coal reservoirs .
[0031] Specifically, water saturation The calculation formula is: (2) In the formula, is the initial water saturation, in %; is the water phase compressibility coefficient, in MPa -1 ; is the original formation pressure, in MPa; is the current formation pressure, in MPa; is the cumulative water production, the unit is 10 4 m 3 ; is the volume coefficient of water phase; is the gas-bearing area, in m 2 ; is the thickness, in m; is the original porosity, in %; is the comprehensive compression coefficient of coal rock, in MPa -1 .
[0032] 2.2) Based on the water saturation of deep coal reservoirs , calculate the gas deviation coefficient of deep coal reservoirs .
[0033] Specifically, the gas deviation coefficient The calculation formula is: (3) In the formula, is the original porosity; is the standard pressure, in MPa; is the temperature in °C; is the Langmuir volume, in m 3 / t; is the adsorption equilibrium constant; is the compression factor under standard conditions; is the standard temperature, in °C.
[0034] 2.3) Based on the gas deviation coefficient of deep coal reservoirs , calculate the average formation pressure in deep coal reservoirs .
[0035] Specifically, calculate the average formation pressure in deep coal reservoirs The calculation formula is: (4) In the formula, is the original gas deviation coefficient; is the cumulative gas production, the unit is 10 4 m 3 ; is the original gas reserves, in units of 10 4 m 3 .
[0036] 2.4) The average formation pressure of deep coal reservoirs Substitute it into the above formula (1) to obtain the gas production index, and establish a typical gas production index characteristic curve.
[0037] Specifically, the typical gas production index characteristic curve includes a typical gas production index characteristic curve of a well without free gas and a typical gas production index characteristic curve of a well with free gas, wherein the typical gas production index characteristic curve of a well without free gas is characterized by being basically stable, and the ratio of the initial gas production index to the mid-to-late gas production index is less than 3; the typical gas production index characteristic curve of a well with free gas is characterized by being relatively different, and the ratio of the initial gas production index to the mid-to-late gas production index is greater than 3. Figure 2 The figure shows a schematic diagram of typical gas production index characteristic curves for wells without free gas and wells with free gas.
[0038] 3) Calculate the gas production index change curve of the single well to be tested.
[0039] 4) According to the gas production index change curve of the single well to be tested and the typical gas production index characteristic curve established in advance, it is judged whether the single well to be tested meets the typical gas production index characteristics of a well containing free gas, and whether the single well to be tested is a well containing free gas.
[0040] Specifically, if the gas production index change curve of the single well to be tested conforms to the characteristics of the typical gas production index characteristic curve of the well not containing free gas, that is, it is basically stable, and the ratio of the initial gas production index to the mid-to-late gas production index is less than 3, then the single well to be tested is judged to be a well not containing free gas; if the gas production index change curve of the single well to be tested conforms to the characteristics of the typical gas production index characteristic curve of the well containing free gas, that is, the difference is large, and the ratio of the initial gas production index to the mid-to-late gas production index is greater than 3, then the single well to be tested is judged to be a well containing free gas.
[0041] like Figure 3As shown in the figure, it is a schematic diagram of the gas production index curve of two wells A and B in the Shenfu block of China. The ratio of the initial gas production index to the mid-to-late gas production index of well A is about 1.5, which is less than 3. Therefore, well A is judged to be a well without free gas; the ratio of the initial gas production index to the mid-to-late gas production index of well B is about 9, which is greater than 3. Therefore, well B is judged to be a well with free gas.

[0043] The judgment module is used to judge whether the single well to be tested meets the typical gas production index characteristics of a well containing free gas based on the gas production index change curve of the single well to be tested and the pre-established typical gas production index characteristic curve, and determine whether the single well to be tested is a well containing free gas.
[0044] In a preferred embodiment, a curve establishment module is further included, which is used to establish a typical gas production index characteristic curve, including: The gas production index is determined as a characteristic parameter for identifying wells containing free gas.
[0045] Based on the material balance equation, the average formation pressure of the deep coal reservoir is calculated, and then the gas production index of the deep coal reservoir is calculated, and a typical gas production index characteristic curve is established.
