Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of tight carbonate reservoir exploration, and in particular to a method for predicting favorable areas of tight carbonate reservoirs within a source based on paleo-geomorphological analysis. Background Art

[0002] Unconventional oil and gas reservoirs are currently the focus of increasing reserves and production in oil fields. In addition to deep-water marine shale, which is currently the main target of exploration and development, shallow-water marine carbonate rocks that are self-generated and self-reserved and formed in the source have also become important targets for the next step of exploration. At present, a large number of wells drilled in the Sichuan Basin have good oil and gas shows in this set of tight carbonate rocks, and some exploration wells have obtained industrial gas flow. However, the sedimentary environment, formation process and organic matter enrichment rules of carbonate rocks are quite different from those of marine shales, so the prediction method of favorable areas of marine shales cannot be directly applied. Exploration practice also shows that the existing prediction methods do not grasp the formation essence of tight carbonate reservoirs in the source, and cannot accurately select the most favorable blocks for the next step of exploration. For new blocks with less geological data, oil and gas evaluation will inevitably require large-scale coring in drilling, which greatly increases the exploration cost. Summary of the invention

[0003] In view of the above problems in the prior art, the present invention provides a method for predicting favorable areas of tight carbonate reservoirs within the source based on paleo-geomorphological analysis, which utilizes the existing logging data of old wells to evaluate favorable exploration areas in large regions, thereby solving the technical problem that the prediction methods of the prior art cannot accurately predict unconventional oil and gas reservoirs such as tight carbonate reservoirs within the source, and effectively reducing exploration costs.

[0004] The technical solution adopted by the present invention is as follows:

[0005] The method for predicting favorable areas of tight carbonate reservoirs in source areas based on paleo-geomorphological analysis includes the following steps:

[0006] S1. Collect large-area drilling and logging data, as well as existing 2D seismic line data;

[0007] S2. For the study layer, select wells with complete well-seismic data, conduct well-seismic stratigraphic framework comparison, establish a stratigraphic division scheme for the target layer, and calculate the reservoir thickness H, total organic carbon content C, porosity, and other parameters of each single well target layer. Key parameters such as gas content G, thickness of bioclastic limestone and marl;

[0008] S3. Calculate the ratio of bioclastic limestone to formation thickness A and the ratio of marlstone to formation thickness B, and conduct correlation analysis between A and B and formation thickness respectively;

[0009] S4, under the constraint of drilling thickness, combined with the correlation characteristics obtained in step S3, reconstruct the paleo-geomorphology of the large area, and divide it into highland (u), slope break (b), slope (s), slope foot (f), and depression (d);

[0010] S5. Use grey correlation analysis to establish important parameters, reservoir parameters C, The grey relational degree y(C) between G and H, y(G);

[0011] S6. According to the grey correlation degree calculated in step S5, using the favorable area prediction formula, Calculate each geomorphic unit, highland, slope break, slope, slope foot, and depression respectively u 、F b 、F s 、F f 、F d ;

[0012] S7, according to the F calculated in step S6, F u 、F b 、F s 、F f 、F d The favorable areas of tight carbonate reservoirs within the source are sorted and divided.

[0013] Furthermore, the method for reconstructing the paleo-geomorphology in step S4 is: according to the correlation between A, B and the stratum thickness obtained in step S3, if A is positively correlated with the stratum thickness and B is negatively correlated with the stratum thickness, the paleo-geomorphology in the region with thicker stratum thickness will be higher; if A is negatively correlated with the stratum thickness and B is positively correlated with the stratum thickness, the paleo-geomorphology in the region with thicker stratum thickness will be lower.

[0014] Furthermore, the calculation method of the grey relational degree in step S5 is:

[0015] (1) Determine the reservoir thickness H as the parent sequence, total organic carbon content C, porosity The gas content G is a subsequence,

[0016] They are H=[H(1),H(2),……,H(n)], C=[C(1),C(2),……,C(n)], G=[G(1),G(2),…,G(n)];

[0017] (2) Preprocess the data. Where X′(k) is the data in each sequence, is the single series average;

[0018] (3) Subtract the processed data of the parent sequence from each subsequence, take the absolute value, set it as |X(n)|, set a as the minimum value of the obtained data, and b as the maximum value of the obtained data;

[0019] (4) Then the grey correlation degree between each subsequence data and the corresponding parent sequence data is Y[X(k)]=(a+ρ×b) / (|X(n)|+ρ×b), where ρ is 0.5;

[0020] (5) The final grey correlation between each key parameter and reservoir thickness is the average value of the single sequence grey correlation, that is,

[0021] In summary, compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following advantages and beneficial effects:

[0022] 1. Use existing drilling and logging, well logging, and seismic data, without adding additional large-scale oil and gas evaluation costs;

[0023] 2. By combining well-seismic data with the reconstruction of regional paleo-geomorphology and the grey correlation analysis method, the gap in the efficient and low-cost prediction method for quantitative evaluation of new unconventional oil and gas reservoirs such as intra-source tight carbonate reservoirs is filled.
