By setting the standard density difference as the basis for judgment, the boundary between the adsorption layer and the non-adsorption layer can be scientifically divided, reducing the error of judgment. Based on real-time measurement and comparison of density differences, it is possible to more accurately identify which layers are adsorption layers.
[0062] In particular, the quantitative evaluation of the free phase through computational methods and accurate quantification provide data support for the determination of the fluid storage state in the pores, which can reduce uncertainty in the development process and lower technical risks.
[0063] In particular, high-pressure mercury injection experiments can provide porosity measurements, that is, the ratio of pore volume to total volume. Based on the capillary pressure curve, the pore size distribution of shale samples can be accurately determined, which is crucial for understanding the pore structure.
[0064] In particular, by removing free fluid and saturating the hydrocarbon fluid through the nuclear magnetic resonance experiment, the pore volume of the shale sample is obtained, and the pore structure can be analyzed more accurately.
[0065] In particular, by comparing the peak values of the distribution curve and pore volume, the proportion and distribution of pores of different sizes in the core can be accurately identified, which helps to gain a deeper understanding of the pore structure characteristics of the core. According to the distribution pattern of pores at the core scale, the development value can be evaluated, thereby improving the recovery rate.
[0066] In particular, determining the adsorbed and free states of the fluid through the core-scale pore size distribution results and the adsorption mass ratio can help optimize mining strategies, more accurately assess the reserves and development potential of shale resources, and reduce uncertainties in the development process.
