[0031] Embodiment 1

[0032] Figure 1 This is a flow chart of a method for determining hydrate saturation in a formation according to Embodiment 1 of the present invention. This embodiment is applicable to the case of determining natural gas hydrate saturation. The method can be executed by a device for determining hydrate saturation in a formation. The device for determining hydrate saturation in a formation can be implemented in the form of hardware and / or software. The device for determining hydrate saturation in a formation can be configured in a computing device. Figure 1 As shown, the method includes:

[0033] S110, obtaining measured elastic and electrical data of the target formation, and determining the initial hydrate saturation.

[0034] Among them, the target formation can be a rock or formation with porosity and permeability and fluid storage and circulation space conditions. The target formation includes solid minerals and porous fluids. The solid minerals are composed of quartz and clay, etc., and the porous fluids include hydrates and water. Hydrates can refer to natural gas hydrates, specifically ice-like crystalline substances formed by natural gas and water under high pressure and low temperature conditions. The measured elastic and electrical data include elastic parameters and electrical parameters, which can specifically include elastic parameters and electrical parameters of various substances in the target formation. Elastic parameters may include but are not limited to elastic modulus (including bulk modulus and shear modulus), longitudinal wave velocity, shear wave velocity, rock density, longitudinal wave (shear wave) impedance, Poisson's ratio, longitudinal and shear wave velocity ratio, etc. Electrical parameters may include but are not limited to conductivity and resistivity, etc.

[0035] In this embodiment, for different target formations in different work areas, corresponding measurement tools can be selected to collect formation geophysical data and obtain real measured formation elastic and electrical data. Before determining the hydrate saturation of the target formation, a hydrate saturation to be used can also be given so that the hydrate saturation can be predicted based on the given hydrate saturation and measured elastic and electrical data. For example, the hydrate saturation is less than the critical porosity corresponding to the target formation, and 0.05 is selected.

[0036] S120. Processing the hydrate saturation and measured elastic and electrical data based on a pre-constructed multi-component elastic and electrical prediction model to obtain predicted elastic and electrical data of the target formation.

[0037] Among them, the multi-component elastic-electric prediction model can be used to predict the formation hydrate saturation. The predicted elastic-electric data include elastic parameters and electrical parameters.

[0038] See also Figure 2 The measured elastic and electrical data and the given hydrate saturation can be input into the multi-component elastic and electrical prediction model. By processing the measured elastic and electrical data and the hydrate saturation, the elastic parameter data and electrical parameter data of the target formation are output as the predicted elastic and electrical data.

[0039] In this embodiment, the measured elastic and electrical data include the porosity and mineral component content interpreted by well logging; the hydrate saturation and the measured elastic and electrical data are processed based on a pre-constructed multi-component elastic and electrical prediction model to obtain the predicted elastic and electrical data of the target formation, including: processing the hydrate saturation and the porosity and mineral component content interpreted by well logging based on the multi-component elastic and electrical prediction model to determine the predicted elastic and electrical data of the target formation.

[0040] Specifically, the first elastic-electric prediction function in the multi-component elastic-electric prediction model can be used to calculate the elastic parameters (e.g., shear modulus and bulk modulus) and electrical parameters (e.g., conductivity) of the target formation containing multiple materials. The first elastic-electric prediction function can be expressed as:

[0041]

[0042]

[0043]

[0044] Among them, f i , K i , μ i and σ i are the hydrate saturation (the initial hydrate saturation is given), bulk modulus, shear modulus and conductivity corresponding to the i-th substance respectively; P i , Q i and R i is the polarization factor; K SCA , μ SCA and σ SCA are the bulk modulus, shear modulus and conductivity of the target formation respectively; m is the total number of material types.

[0045] S130, determining an error value based on the predicted elastic-electric data and the measured elastic-electric data.

[0046] In this embodiment, the error between the model output result (i.e., predicted elastic-electric data) and the measured data can be calculated as the error value. The specific implementation method can be: based on the target loss function, the predicted elastic-electric data and the measured elastic-electric data are processed to determine the error value.

[0047] Among them, the objective loss function is used to evaluate the error between the actual measured data and the forward simulation response of the multi-component electroelastic prediction model.

[0048] In this embodiment, the objective loss function (J) can be expressed as:

[0049]

[0050] in: and are the measured P-wave velocity and measured resistivity, respectively; and To predict the P-wave velocity and resistivity. In the case of joint elastic-electric inversion, α is 0.5, J(S h ) is represented as the error value.

[0051] Specifically, the predicted P-wave velocity is determined by predicting the bulk modulus in the elastic-electric data and the rock density of the target formation. For example, the quotient of the bulk modulus and the rock density is used as the predicted P-wave velocity. The predicted resistivity is determined by predicting the conductivity in the elastic-electric data. For example, the inverse of the conductivity is used as the predicted resistivity. Furthermore, the predicted P-wave velocity, the predicted resistivity, the hydrate saturation, the P-wave velocity and the resistivity in the measured elastic-electric data can be input into the target loss function. After the target loss function is solved, the error value J(S h ).

[0052] S140, updating the hydrate saturation according to the size of the error value, and re-executing the operations of determining the predicted elastic and electrical data of the target formation and determining the error value based on the updated hydrate saturation until the error value is less than a given error limit, and determining the target hydrate saturation based on the hydrate saturation.

[0053] It should be noted that when predicting the hydrate saturation (reflecting the hydrate content) by the multi-component electroelastic prediction model, there is a certain error between the initially given hydrate saturation and the actual hydrate saturation. In order to obtain the most realistic hydrate saturation, the size of the error value can be used to determine whether the hydrate saturation needs to be adjusted to obtain the optimal hydrate saturation that is consistent with the actual situation.

[0054] In this embodiment, the hydrate saturation is updated according to the size of the error value, including: if the error value is greater than the error limit, the hydrate saturation is adjusted to obtain the adjusted hydrate saturation, based on the multi-component elastic-electric prediction model according to the adjusted hydrate saturation and the porosity and mineral component content interpreted by the well logging, the predicted elastic-electric data of the target formation is re-predicted, and the operation of determining the error value based on the predicted elastic-electric data and the measured elastic-electric data is re-executed; if the error value is not greater than the error limit, the adjusted hydrate saturation is used as the target hydrate saturation to be inverted. Among them, the error limit can be a pre-set error threshold, and its specific numerical value can be determined by the staff according to the actual working situation, and is not limited here.

[0055] Continue to see Figure 2, the error value and the error limit can be compared and processed to determine whether the error value is greater than the error limit. If not, it means that the error between the predicted elastic and electrical data calculated at this time and the measured elastic and electrical data is small, and the hydrate saturation at this time can be used as the hydrate saturation of the target formation, that is, the target hydrate saturation. If yes, it means that the predicted elastic and electrical data calculated at this time are quite different from the measured elastic and electrical data, and the hydrate saturation can be adjusted, such as increasing the hydrate saturation, and the predicted elastic and electrical data can be recalculated by the adjusted hydrate saturation. That is, based on the adjusted hydrate saturation, the step of determining the predicted elastic and electrical data of the target formation based on the hydrate saturation and the measured elastic and electrical data based on the multi-component elastic and electrical prediction model is re-executed, including: taking the predicted elastic and electrical data as the initial condition, and gradually adjusting the hydrate saturation using the second elastic and electrical prediction function in the multi-component elastic and electrical prediction model until the error value is not greater than the error limit, indicating that the adjusted hydrate saturation is consistent with the actual hydrate saturation, and the adjusted hydrate saturation can be used as the target saturation.

[0056] Exemplarily, the second elastic-electric prediction function can be expressed as:

[0057]

[0058]

[0059]

[0060] Among them, x j , K j , μ j and σ j are the hydrate saturation, bulk modulus, shear modulus and conductivity corresponding to the jth substance; P j , Q j and R j is the polarization factor; K DEM , μ DEM and σ DEM are the predicted bulk modulus, predicted shear modulus and predicted conductivity of the target formation respectively; dx j It is expressed as the adjustment amount of the hydrate saturation of the jth substance.

[0061] In order to improve the accuracy of hydrate saturation prediction and the prediction efficiency at the same time, the predicted elastoelectric data of the target formation are re-predicted based on the multi-component elastoelectric prediction model according to the adjusted hydrate saturation and the porosity and mineral component content interpreted by well logging, including: in the process of processing the hydrate saturation and the porosity and mineral component content interpreted by well logging based on the multi-component elastoelectric prediction model, the order of adding different solid minerals and porous fluids is adjusted to obtain the predicted elastoelectric data of the target formation.

[0062] In this embodiment, a multi-component electroelastic prediction model may be pre-constructed. The method of constructing the multi-component electroelastic prediction model may be:

[0063] See also Figure 3 First, we use the first electroelastic prediction function (i.e. Figure 3 Model A) calculates the bulk modulus, shear modulus and conductivity of the mixed fluid composed of pore-filling hydrate and water. The first elastic-electric prediction function is:

[0064]

[0065]

[0066]

[0067] Then, the predicted elastic-electric data calculated by the first elastic-electric prediction function is used as the initial condition, and the second elastic-electric prediction function (i.e. Figure 3 Model B) gradually adjusts the hydrate and water saturation (for example, adding hydrate and water to the mixed fluid) until the hydrate saturation reaches the critical porosity. The second elastic-electric prediction function is:

[0068]

[0069]

[0070]

[0071] Furthermore, assuming that the pore aspect ratio of the mixed fluid is the same as the particle aspect ratio of the clay, model A is used to calculate the bulk modulus, shear modulus, and conductivity of the three-component mixture consisting of hydrate-water-clay, and model B is then used to gradually adjust the hydrate saturation of hydrate, water, and clay (for example, adding hydrate, water, and clay to the mixed fluid) until the hydrate saturation reaches the critical porosity.

[0072] Furthermore, assuming that the aspect ratio of quartz particles is 1, model A is used to calculate the bulk modulus, shear modulus and conductivity of the four-component mixture consisting of hydrate-water-clay-quartz, and then model B is used to gradually adjust the hydrate saturation of hydrate, water, clay and quartz (for example, adding hydrate, water, clay and quartz to the mixed fluid) until the hydrate saturation reaches the critical porosity. At this time, the four-component mixture is a pore-filling hydrate reservoir.

[0073] In practical applications, the mixture can be a two-component mixture consisting of hydrate and water, a three-component mixture consisting of hydrate, water and clay, or a four-component mixture consisting of hydrate, water, clay and quartz. If the mixture is a four-component mixture, the first elastic-electric prediction function can be used to calculate the elastic-electric parameters of the two-component mixture consisting of hydrate and water; then the second elastic-electric prediction function can be used to adjust the saturation of hydrate and water according to the actual content ratio of hydrate and water until the saturation of hydrate and water reaches the critical porosity; further, the first elastic-electric prediction function and the second elastic-electric prediction function in the multi-component elastic-electric prediction model are used to calculate the elastic and electrical parameters of the three-component mixture consisting of the two-component mixture and clay particles; further, the multi-component elastic-electric prediction model is used to calculate the elastic and electrical parameters of the four-component mixture consisting of the three-component mixture and clay particles; the multi-component elastic-electric prediction model is used in combination with the global optimization algorithm to predict the hydrate saturation and apply it to the calculation of the pore-filling hydrate saturation.

[0074] Based on the above technical solutions, Figure 4 This is a practical application effect diagram to verify the method of determining the hydrate saturation in the formation. The hydrate saturation predicted by the multi-component elastic-electric prediction model based on single P-wave velocity, single resistivity and P-wave velocity-resistivity combined data is compared with the well logging interpretation hydrate saturation calculated by the Archie formula. As can be seen from the figure, although there are differences in the predicted hydrate saturation, the overall trend of the prediction results is relatively close. In addition, the single P-wave velocity prediction is low and the single resistivity prediction is high, which may be related to the presence of a small amount of free gas in the hydrate layer. In comparison, the hydrate saturation predicted by the multi-component elastic-electric properties is consistent with the results calculated by the Archie formula, proving that the elastic-electric properties combined prediction method can effectively improve the prediction accuracy of hydrate saturation.

[0075] The technical solution of this embodiment is to obtain the measured elastic and electrical data of the target formation and determine the initial hydrate saturation; the target formation includes solid minerals and pore fluids, the solid minerals are composed of quartz and clay, and the pore fluids include hydrates and water; the hydrate saturation and the measured elastic and electrical data are processed based on a pre-constructed multi-component elastic and electrical prediction model to obtain the predicted elastic and electrical data of the target formation; the error value is determined based on the predicted elastic and electrical data and the measured elastic and electrical data; the hydrate saturation is updated according to the size of the error value, and the operations of determining the predicted elastic and electrical data of the target formation and determining the error value are re-executed based on the updated hydrate saturation until the error value is less than a given error limit, and the target hydrate saturation is determined based on the hydrate saturation. The method solves the problem that the elastic and electrical data cannot be calculated simultaneously using the same rock physics model in the prior art, resulting in low accuracy in hydrate saturation prediction. The method realizes that in the process of determining the predicted hydrate data of the formation by processing the measured hydrate data and the hydrate saturation in a multi-component hydrate prediction model, the hydrate saturation is adjusted according to the error between the predicted hydrate data and the measured hydrate data until the predicted hydrate data is consistent with the measured hydrate data, thereby obtaining the adjusted optimal hydrate saturation, making the hydrate saturation close to the actual hydrate saturation, and realizing the synchronous joint interpretation of the hydrate saturation and hydrate data, thereby achieving the technical effect of improving the accuracy of hydrate saturation prediction.

The method solves the problem that the elastic and electrical data cannot be calculated simultaneously using the same rock physics model in the prior art, resulting in low accuracy in hydrate saturation prediction. The method realizes that in the process of determining the predicted hydrate data of the formation by processing the measured hydrate data and the hydrate saturation in a multi-component hydrate prediction model, the hydrate saturation is adjusted according to the error between the predicted hydrate data and the measured hydrate data until the predicted hydrate data is consistent with the measured hydrate data, thereby obtaining the adjusted optimal hydrate saturation, making the hydrate saturation close to the actual hydrate saturation, and realizing the synchronous joint interpretation of the hydrate saturation and hydrate data, thereby achieving the technical effect of improving the accuracy of hydrate saturation prediction.
