[0046] Example 1
[0047] Figure 1 This is a flowchart of a method for evaluating the damage to working fluid in a tight oil and gas horizontal well, provided in Embodiment 1 of the present invention. This embodiment is applicable to evaluating reservoir damage in tight oil and gas horizontal wells. The method can be executed by a device for evaluating the damage to working fluid in a tight oil and gas horizontal well, which can be implemented in hardware and / or software. Figure 1 As shown, the method includes:
[0048] S110. Drill standard core plungers at different angles based on the direction of the bedding of the reservoir to be evaluated, and then clean and dry them.
[0049] Conduct well site data surveys, and based on the formation data and trajectory design of the drilling design, clarify the formation mechanical parameters and the wellbore's direction of advancement in the reservoir to ensure that subsequent experiments can accurately reflect the actual situation of the formation.
[0050] In this embodiment of the invention, the angle includes: the parallel bedding and perpendicular bedding relative to the stratigraphy, as well as the preset angle formed with the stratigraphy.
[0051] Based on the direction of the stratigraphy, a certain number of standard core plungers were drilled along parallel bedding, perpendicular bedding, and other orientations, and then washed and dried.
[0052] For example, Figure 2 This is a schematic diagram of coring a stratigraphic unit at different orientations, applicable to Embodiment 1 of the present invention. Figure 2 In the diagram, 1 represents the wellbore, 2 represents the bedding reservoir rock, and 3 represents core samples from different orientations. First, the formation mechanical parameters and the wellbore heading direction are determined. Then, core samples are drilled along the 90°, 45°, 0°, -45°, and -90° directions of the wellbore.
[0053] S120. Determine the first permeability of the water-saturated core plunger of the standard core plunger.
[0054] In this embodiment of the invention, the water-saturated core plunger is obtained by self-absorption through contact between the standard core plunger and formation water with the bedding plane perpendicular to the water surface.
[0055] Figure 3 This is a schematic diagram of a core plunger self-absorbing formation water applicable to Embodiment 1 of the present invention. Figure 3 In the diagram, 1 represents core plungers at different angles, 2 represents formation bedding planes, and 3 represents formation water. Specifically, the standard core plunger contacts the formation water with its bedding plane perpendicular to the water surface, and draws water in at its corresponding angle.
[0056] Permeability is a measure of the ability of a porous medium to allow fluid to pass through. It describes how easily a fluid flows through a porous medium under a given pressure difference. Factors such as the size, shape, distribution, and connectivity of pores in a rock significantly affect permeability. Larger pores with better connectivity generally result in higher permeability, making it easier for fluids to pass through the rock. Different mineral compositions affect the physical properties of rocks; for example, some minerals may clog pores, thus reducing permeability. The viscosity and density of fluids also influence permeability. Fluids with higher viscosity experience greater resistance in different orientations when flowing through rocks, resulting in relatively lower permeability. The initial permeability of drilled core plungers may vary, reflecting the spatial anisotropy of the reservoir. Studying the permeability of core plungers in different orientations can provide a better understanding of the spatial characteristics of reservoirs, offering a basis for formulating oil and gas extraction and reservoir protection strategies.
[0057] In this embodiment of the invention, the first permeability is determined as follows:
[0058] The first permeability is calculated based on the viscosity and flow rate of the fluid used for testing, the length and cross-sectional area of the saturated core plunger, and the test pressure difference across the saturated core plunger.
[0059] Specifically, the first penetration rate can be calculated using Darcy's formula:
[0060]
[0061] Where K is the first penetration rate, in units of 10. -3 μm 2 Q represents the flow rate of the fluid used in the test, in cm³. 3 / s; μ is the viscosity of the fluid used for testing, in mPa·s; the fluid used for testing can be oil or gas; L is the length of the saturated core plunger, in cm; A is the cross-sectional area of the saturated core plunger, in cm². 2 ΔP is the test pressure difference, in MPa.
[0062] S130. Based on the angle of each saturated core plunger, a working fluid damage test is performed to determine the second permeability of each saturated core plunger after damage.
[0063] In this embodiment of the invention, step S130 specifically includes:
[0064] The water-saturated core plungers are respectively installed into the clamps at the corresponding drilling angles;
[0065] Under the same formation temperature and pressure conditions as the reservoir to be evaluated, each of the water-saturated core plungers in the holder is damaged with working fluid;
[0066] Determine the second permeability of each of the damaged water-saturated core plungers.
[0067] Specifically, core plungers saturated with formation water are inserted into corresponding holders at their respective azimuths. The holder positions must strictly correspond one-to-one with the core drilling azimuths, and all core holders must be mounted on the same wellbore assembly. Under conditions identical to the formation temperature and pressure, the core plungers are simultaneously damaged with working fluid for a certain period. The damaged core plungers are then subjected to permeability testing to obtain their permeability (i.e., the second permeability).
[0068] In an embodiment of the invention, damaging each of the saturated core plungers in the holder with a working fluid includes:
[0069] The clamp is placed in a sealed environment, and working fluid is injected into the sealed environment.
[0070] The working fluid is stirred using a stirring device;
[0071] The working fluid is heated to the temperature of the reservoir to be evaluated for a preset time to cause damage.
[0072] Specifically, a water-saturated core plunger is placed in a clamp, which is a clamping device with a 360° rotation function, allowing it to rotate to the corresponding angle while clamping the core. The clamp is then placed in a sealed environment, such as a glass tank, and working fluid is added. The stirring system is turned on, and the mixture is heated to the reservoir temperature to simulate the real reservoir environment, allowing for working fluid damage for a preset time.
[0073] In this embodiment of the invention, the second permeability is determined as follows:
[0074] Determine the post-damage flow rate of each of the saturated core plungers under standard test conditions;
[0075] The second permeability is determined based on the post-damage flow rate, the size of the saturated core plunger, environmental information under the standard test conditions, and the concentration of the working fluid.
[0076] The second permeability can also be calculated using Darcy's formula. Simply replace the corresponding parameters in Darcy's formula to obtain the second permeability. Specifically, the parameter substituted into the Darcy formula mentioned above is: K is the second permeability, in units of 10. -3 μm 2 Q represents the flow rate of the fluid used in the test, in cm³. 3 / s; μ is the viscosity of the fluid used for testing, in mPa·s; L is the length of the saturated core plunger, in cm; A is the cross-sectional area of the saturated core plunger, in cm². 2 ΔP is the test pressure difference, in MPa.
[0077] S140. Determine the degree of damage to the reservoir to be evaluated at each of the aforementioned angles based on the first permeability and the second permeability, and evaluate the damage situation based on the degree of damage.
[0078] In this embodiment of the invention, determining the degree of damage to the reservoir to be evaluated at each of the aforementioned angles based on the first permeability and the second permeability includes:
[0079] For a water-saturated core plunger at each angle, the degree of damage is calculated using the following formula:
[0080]
[0081] Among them, R di The degree of damage at angle i; K 0i The first permeability of the saturated core plunger at angle i, in units of 10i -3 μm 2 ;K di The second permeability of the saturated core plunger at angle i, in units of 10i -3 μm 2 .
[0082] By comparing the permeability of the core plunger before and after damage, the extent of damage to the reservoir by the working fluid can be intuitively understood. The degree of damage can be calculated to quantitatively assess the extent of damage to the reservoir.
[0083] In this embodiment of the invention, the damage assessment based on the degree of damage includes:
[0084] The directions of strong and weak damage are determined based on the damage severity standards and the degree of damage at each of the aforementioned angles;
[0085] The direction of damage is determined based on the location of strong damage and the location of weak damage.
[0086] The following detailed explanation of the solution of the present invention will be provided through a specific embodiment:
[0087] Collect the design data of a certain well, determine the formation mechanical parameters and the wellbore advance direction, and then drill downhole cores along the wellbore at 90°, 45°, 0°, -45° and -90° respectively, and number them 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5 respectively.
[0088] The core was dried and washed, and then processed according to the above embodiments. Figure 2 The method of self-absorbing formation water establishes initial water saturation.
[0089] Five core samples were placed in the core holder of the working fluid damage assessment device and rotated to the appropriate angle. Then, working fluid was added, the stirring system was turned on, and the sample was heated to the reservoir temperature to simulate the real reservoir environment.
[0090] Under the conditions of a confining pressure of 5 MPa and a pressure difference of 2 MPa, the initial flow rates Q11, Q21, Q31, Q41 and Q51 of five core samples were tested.
[0091] Three hours after the damage, the flow rates Q12, Q22, Q32, Q42 and Q52 of five core samples were tested under a confining pressure of 5 MPa and a pressure differential of 2 MPa.
[0092] The initial permeability and the permeability after damage to the core were calculated using the Darcy formula in the above embodiments.
[0093] The degree of damage to the five core samples was calculated using the formula in the above embodiment. For example, the degree of damage is shown in the table below:
[0094]
[0095] Table 1: Damage Degree of Core Plungers at Different Orientations
[0096] Table 1 shows that reservoir working fluid damage in horizontal well drilling exhibits significant spatial anisotropy. Core damage is least pronounced at 90° relative to the wellbore direction, and most severe at -90°. Furthermore, the damage rate gradually increases along the 90°, 45°, 0°, -45°, and -90° directions. Using 0° (parallel to the bedding plane) as the standard, -45° and -90° are considered strong damage azimuths, while 90° and 45° are considered weak damage azimuths.
[0097] The solutions of the embodiments of the present invention have at least the following advantages and advancements:
[0098] (1) It fully considers the spatial anisotropy of reservoir damage during horizontal well drilling. By evaluating the degree of damage to core plungers in different spatial orientations by the working fluid, reservoir damage can be accurately evaluated, providing a strong theoretical basis for formulating reasonable reservoir protection strategies.
[0099] (2) The influence of well type on reservoir damage is taken into account. Therefore, this method is also applicable to the spatial anisotropy evaluation of reservoir damage in the directional section of horizontal wells and has strong applicability.
[0100] (3) Taking into account the actual environment of the reservoir, the actual environment of the reservoir was simulated. The test results can reflect the real condition of the reservoir and have a good guiding role for engineering practice.
