Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of shale oil and gas exploration and development, and in particular to a method and device for determining shale soft porosity using a gas logging method as a constraint. Background Art
[0002] Calculating shale porosity is a key technology for shale oil resource evaluation. Shale pores are composed of hard pores (inorganic pores in the rock skeleton) and soft pores (organic pores in the kerogen). Soft pores are generally defined as pores or fractures with an aspect ratio less than 0.01.
[0003] Hard pores basically do not change under the action of pressure, so an increase in overburden pressure will not lead to a decrease in hard porosity, while soft porosity will decrease due to the closure of soft pores. During the thermal evolution of shale, as the temperature rises, organic matter continues to decompose, and the fluid type gradually changes from oil to gas, causing the soft porosity to increase with increasing temperature. During this process, the hard porosity does not change much.
[0004] Existing shale porosity research techniques cannot dynamically determine the soft porosity of shale under varying pressures. However, studying the seismic wave dispersion effect of shale reservoirs requires studying soft porosity, and research into the mining potential of shale reservoirs also requires determining both total porosity and soft porosity. Summary of the Invention

This method and apparatus can determine the soft porosity at any pressure by optimizing the correspondence between fracture density and test pressure, utilizing the Poisson's ratio and Young's modulus of the rock sample when the soft pores are completely closed.
[0006] In a first aspect, an embodiment of the present invention provides a method for determining shale soft porosity using a gas logging method as a constraint, comprising:

[0009] determining a plurality of test pressures between the pressure at the location and the minimum pressure;
[0010] For each test pressure, the difference between the total porosity and the hard porosity corresponding to the first curve is used as the first soft porosity at that pressure. The second soft porosity at that pressure is determined based on the current corresponding relationship and the Poisson's ratio and Young's modulus of the target rock sample when the soft pores are completely closed.
[0011] The current correspondence is corrected until the error between the second soft porosity determined according to the current correspondence and the first soft porosity meets the set error requirement, and an optimized correspondence is obtained, which is used to determine the soft porosity under the set pressure based on the Poisson's ratio and Young's modulus of the rock sample to be tested when the soft pores are completely closed.
[0012] In a second aspect, an embodiment of the present invention provides a device for determining shale soft porosity using a gas logging method as a constraint, comprising:

[0017] The corresponding relationship optimization module is used to correct the current corresponding relationship until the error between the second soft porosity determined according to the current corresponding relationship and the first soft porosity meets the set error requirement, thereby obtaining an optimized corresponding relationship, which is used to determine the soft porosity under a set pressure based on the Poisson's ratio and Young's modulus of the rock sample to be tested when the soft pores are completely closed.
[0018] In a third aspect, an embodiment of the present invention provides a computer storage medium storing computer executable instructions. When the computer executable instructions are executed by a processor, the method for determining shale soft porosity using gas logging as a constraint is implemented.
[0019] In a fourth aspect, an embodiment of the present disclosure provides a server comprising: a memory, a processor, and a computer program stored in the memory and executable on the processor, wherein when the processor executes the program, the method for determining the soft porosity of shale using the gas logging method as a constraint is implemented.

[0033] The pore structure of rocks can generally be idealized as consisting of intergranular pores between mineral particles and microcracks connecting these pores. Therefore, the pore structure of rocks can be characterized as a composition of hard and soft pores of varying pore shapes. The pore shape is typically represented by the pore aspect ratio α. In real rocks, soft pores have a wide variety of distribution shapes and cannot be represented by a single pore aspect ratio; instead, a continuous pore aspect ratio distribution should be used. The method of David and Zimmerman (2012) can be used to invert the continuous pore structure of reservoir rocks using dry data from ultrasonic measurements.
[0034] (1) α is defined as the pore aspect ratio, which is used to characterize the shape of the pore.
[0035] (2) Calculate K by measuring the ultrasonic longitudinal and shear wave velocities at high pressurestiff and μ stiff .
[0036] K stiff and μ stiff The bulk modulus and shear modulus are when the soft pores in the rock are completely closed. Both belong to the elastic modulus of the rock. The bulk modulus and shear modulus can be calculated by the longitudinal and shear wave velocities using existing public methods.
[0037] (3) Define φ s Hard porosity.
[0038] (4) K0 and μ0 are the bulk modulus and shear modulus of the rock particle matrix, respectively, which are obtained through rock mechanics experimental measurements.
[0039] (5) The above variables satisfy the Mori-Tanaka formula (1973) under two assumptions: first, the rock contains only hard pores, and second, the hard pores in the rock have only a single pore aspect ratio.
[0040]
[0041]
[0042] Formula (1) and (2) K stiff and μ stiff are the bulk modulus and shear modulus when the soft pores are completely closed, φ s is the hard porosity, K0 and μ0 are the bulk modulus and shear modulus of the rock particle matrix, respectively, P s and Q s The aspect ratio α s is the pore shape expression of the function and is only used as an intermediate parameter in the derivation of the formula.
[0043] (6) Measure K d and μ d , are the effective bulk modulus and equivalent shear modulus of the rock sample containing porosity, respectively.
[0044] (7) The Mori-Tanaka formula (1973) is modified again. In this case, the matrix modulus of the rock skeleton is the combination of the bulk modulus and the shear modulus (K stiff and μ stiff )replace.
[0045]
[0046]
[0047] In formulas (3) and (4), φ c is the soft porosity; Pc and Q c The aspect ratio α c is the soft pore shape expression of the function, which is only used as an intermediate parameter in the derivation of the formula.
[0048] (8) Define ε as the crack density and ν as the crack density. stiff is the Poisson's ratio of the rock when the soft pores are completely closed.
[0049] (9)Use Formula (5) is further derived and transformed from Formula (3) and Formula (4):
[0050]
[0051]
[0052] (10) Establish the relationship between crack density and pressure:
[0053]
[0054] In formula (8), ε is the crack density, ε0 is the initial crack density of the rock sample under zero pressure conditions, p is the test pressure, is the pressure value determined by fitting.
[0055] (11) Calculate the minimum initial aspect ratio α using the following formula i :
[0056]
[0057] In formula (9), ε p is the crack density of the rock sample with specific soft pores under the effective pressure P, and ε0 is the initial crack density of the rock sample under zero pressure.
[0058] (12) Substituting formula (8) into formula (9), further transformation yields:
[0059]
[0060] E stiff is the Young's modulus of the rock when the soft pores are completely closed. The pressure test is divided into n equal intervals of △p. Here, it is similar to the concept of integration. The larger n is, the smaller dp is. The calculated α i The smaller the change, the higher the accuracy of the aspect ratio. This formula can calculate the minimum initial aspect ratio α at each pressure point i , further integration and accumulation can be used to calculate the crack aspect ratio at each pressure point.
[0061] (13) The soft porosity can be calculated by substituting the crack aspect ratio α calculated by equation (10) and the crack density ε calculated by equation (8) into equation (5).
[0062] The embodiments of the present invention provide a method and apparatus for determining the soft porosity of shale using gas logging as a constraint, which can determine the soft porosity at any pressure by using the Poisson's ratio and Young's modulus of the rock sample when the soft pores are completely closed.
[0063] Example
[0064] The embodiment of the present invention provides a method for determining the soft porosity of shale using gas logging as a constraint. Figure 1 As shown, the following steps are included:
[0065] Step S11: establishing a corresponding relationship between fracture density and test pressure based on experimental data pairs of fracture density and test pressure of multiple shale samples in the shale reservoir.
[0066] According to the experimental data of fracture density and test pressure of multiple shale samples in the shale reservoir, the above formula (8) is determined by data fitting. ε0 can be determined by experiment or by fitting deduction, thus obtaining the corresponding relationship between crack density and test pressure. The fitting results of the corresponding relationship between crack density and test pressure can be found in Figure 2 As shown, the experimental measurement curve is the curve obtained by directly connecting the experimental data two by two.
[0067] Step S12: Obtain a first curve showing the change in total porosity versus test time, and a second curve showing the change in pressure versus test time, obtained through a porosity gas testing experiment for a target rock sample in the reservoir. Determine the position on the second curve where the slope begins to be less than a set slope threshold, and use the total porosity corresponding to the position as the hard porosity.
[0068] See also Figure 3 As shown, there are example graphs of the first curve (curves 2 and 4) of total porosity changing with test time and the second curve (curves 1 and 3) of pressure changing with test time obtained through porosity gas testing experiments, where curves 1 and 2 are measurement results parallel to the shale bedding direction, and curves 3 and 4 are measurement results perpendicular to the shale bedding direction.
[0069] Step S13: Determine a plurality of test pressures between the pressure at the position and the minimum pressure.
[0070] Multiple test pressures between the pressure at the specified location and the minimum pressure are determined based on the set pressure interval. The smaller the set pressure interval, the higher the calculation accuracy, but also the greater the computational effort. Therefore, the pressure interval can be determined based on a combination of the required accuracy and the computational effort.
[0071] Step S14: For each test pressure, the difference between the total porosity and the hard porosity corresponding to the first curve is used as the first soft porosity under the pressure. The second soft porosity under the pressure is determined based on the current corresponding relationship and the Poisson's ratio and Young's modulus of the target rock sample when the soft pores are completely closed.
[0072] The process of determining the second soft porosity for each test pressure condition may include:
[0073] (1) Determine the crack density at this pressure using the current correspondence.
[0074] According to the specific data of the test pressure, the crack density under the pressure is determined by formula (8).
[0075] (2) According to the Poisson's ratio and Young's modulus of the target rock sample when the soft pores are completely closed, the fracture aspect ratio under the pressure is determined.
[0076] The Poisson's ratio and Young's modulus when the soft pores are completely closed can be determined based on the longitudinal and shear wave velocity measurement results when the test pressure is higher than the set pressure, that is, determined by the high-pressure longitudinal and shear wave velocity measurement results.
[0077] According to the Poisson's ratio and Young's modulus of the target rock sample when the soft pores are completely closed, the minimum initial aspect ratio corresponding to the pressure interval is determined by formula (10); based on the minimum initial aspect ratio corresponding to the pressure interval, the fracture aspect ratio under this pressure is determined by the integral accumulation method.
[0078] (3) Determine the soft porosity at this pressure based on the crack density and crack aspect ratio.
[0079] According to the crack density and crack aspect ratio, the soft porosity under this pressure is determined using formula (5):
[0080] Step S15: Correct the current corresponding relationship until the error between the second soft porosity determined according to the current corresponding relationship and the first soft porosity meets the set error requirement, thereby obtaining an optimized corresponding relationship.
[0081] The correspondence between the optimized fracture density and the test pressure is used to determine the soft porosity at a set pressure based on the Poisson's ratio and Young's modulus of the rock sample when the soft pores are completely closed.
[0082] The method for determining the soft porosity of shale using gas logging as a constraint provided by an embodiment of the present invention uses the soft porosity determined using data obtained from a gas logging experiment on a rock sample porosity as a constraint condition, and corrects the correspondence between the fracture density and the test pressure until the soft porosity determined using the corrected correspondence condition is close to the constraint condition, thereby obtaining an optimized correspondence between the fracture density and the test pressure. On this basis, it is possible to determine the soft porosity at any pressure using the Poisson's ratio and Young's modulus of the rock sample when the soft pores are completely closed.
[0083] The method for determining the soft porosity of shale using the gas measurement method as a constraint provided in an embodiment of the present invention, based on the optimization of the correspondence between fracture density and test pressure, only requires the Poisson's ratio and Young's modulus of the rock sample when the soft pores are completely closed to determine the soft porosity under any pressure. The Poisson's ratio and Young's modulus of the rock sample when the soft pores are completely closed can be calculated through the measurement results of the longitudinal and transverse wave velocities under high-pressure conditions. The measurement of the longitudinal and transverse wave velocities under high-pressure conditions is easy to implement and is non-destructive to the rock sample.
