Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of unconventional natural gas development, and relates to a deep coal rock gas pressure backflow nozzle control method taking into account the influence of coal powder, proppant migration and coal seam cleat cracks. Background Art

[0002] With the continuous deepening of coalbed methane exploration and exploitation in my country, deep coal-rock gas development has become a strategic successor resource for increasing China's natural gas reserves and production; so how to efficiently and reasonably exploit coal-rock gas is a new challenge we face; under the action of high pressure and temperature, the adsorption capacity of coal rocks in my country's deep coal-rock gas reservoirs reaches its limit, forming a supersaturated deep coal-bed methane reservoir with "high gas content, high saturation, and free gas". Affected by its reservoir characteristics, hydraulic fracturing technology has been widely used in the development of coal-rock gas. After the fracturing construction of the coal seam, the fracturing fluid must be returned in time to reduce the residence time of the fracturing fluid in the reservoir and reduce the damage of the fracturing fluid to the coal seam. In addition, due to the fragility of the coal seam itself, coal powder is easily generated in the coal rock reservoir and mining process, which will block the flow channel in the fracture, reduce the fracture conductivity, and greatly affect the production capacity of coal rock gas. Therefore, it is considered that in the process of coal rock gas return, the flow rate of the return fluid is controlled to prevent the coal powder in the reservoir matrix from flowing, discharge the coal powder in the fracture, and improve the fracture conductivity, which is the key to the efficient exploitation of deep coal rock gas at present. In terms of mechanism, many studies have been carried out at home and abroad on the mechanism of coal powder output and damage to the reservoir, two-phase flow, post-fracturing fracturing fluid return and proppant return. However, a systematic model of coupling nozzle, wellbore, reservoir, proppant and coal powder migration has not been established, and a coupled integrated drainage optimization system has not been given. In engineering, the return rate of the liquid after fracturing is mainly controlled by empirically adjusting the nozzle size, thereby controlling the settlement and laying state of the proppant.

[0003] Domestic and foreign scholars have conducted some research on the control of the nozzle during the post-fracturing flowback process. At present, the optimization of the nozzle after fracturing has been carried out mainly for shale gas, conventional reservoirs and shallow coalbed methane. For coalbed methane, some scholars have established a fracturing fluid flowback model considering the characteristics of the proppant settling immediately after fracturing in coalbed methane wells and the cementation between particles, and have controlled and adjusted the nozzle with the purpose of preventing the proppant from flowing back (Zhang Zhuang. Post-fracturing flowback technology of coalbed methane wells [J]. Coalfield Geology and Exploration, 2017, 45(5): 70-74.). Some scholars have also considered the adsorption and desorption characteristics and seepage mechanism of coalbed methane, and found that coalbed methane wells that are too quickly discharged, well washing and repair, well closure, and liquid level below the top of the coal seam are prone to cause pollution, resulting in a sharp drop in gas and water production. Based on the damage characteristics and damage mechanism, combined with many years of drainage experience, a drainage system based on constant pressure drainage, reasonable working pressure difference control and moderate coal powder output control has been established. This formula is only related to pore radius, pore shape, etc., but does not consider the migration of proppant and coal powder in the fracture and the flow of wellbore and nozzle, and has not established an optimization model for wellhead nozzle control (Zhang Suian, Cao Lihu, Du Caixia. Research on gas production mechanism and drainage pressure control and powder control in coalbed methane wells [J]. Journal of China Coal Society, 2014, 39(9): 1928-1931). In addition, some scholars analyzed the differences in geological conditions between Yanchuan South and Qinnan coalbed methane, and combined with the on-site drainage parameters of Yanchuan South coalbed methane wells, established a corresponding drainage system. The study divided the drainage system of deep coalbed methane reservoirs in Yanchuan South coalbed methane field into five drainage stages, namely: rapid pressure reduction stage, stable pressure reduction stage, production stage, production fluctuation stage and stable production stage. According to the bottom hole pressure drop corresponding to each stage, a refined drainage control method was constructed; however, since the bottom hole pressure drop is difficult to monitor and control, and the influence of proppant, coal powder and reservoir is not taken into account, this study still has major defects (Zhao Xinglong, Tang Dazhen, Zhang Yan. Establishment and optimization of drainage system for deep coalbed methane reservoirs in Yanchuan South Coalbed Methane Field [J]. Coal Science and Technology, 2021, 49(6): 251-257); In addition, some scholars have also considered the migration of proppant and coal powder in the fracture, constructed an artificial fracture-wellbore-nozzle flow system, studied the theory of coal powder startup and proppant reflux control, and established a mathematical model for calculating the size of the return nozzle after coalbed methane well pressure relief; however, this theory does not consider the changes in liquid phase during the return process, the influence of fracture closure and the influence of the real reservoir (Zhao Qihong. Research on the method of determining the size of the return nozzle after coalbed methane well pressure relief [D]. Chengdu: Southwest Petroleum University, 2017).

[0004] Analysis of past studies shows that most optimizations for post-fracturing flowback consider controlling the bottom hole pressure drop, but monitoring and controlling the bottom hole pressure drop is a difficult process and is difficult to implement; while most studies on nozzle control consider a single influencing factor or the factors considered are not comprehensive enough; in general, the current research lacks an overall system construction, which makes it difficult to promote the current wellhead nozzle optimization method; since a complete set of post-fracturing wellhead nozzle size optimization methods that fully consider proppant, coal powder migration, multiphase flow and reservoir changes has not yet been established for deep coal gas, it is necessary to build a new optimization system and method; in order to achieve this goal, we have established a deep coal-bearing tight gas matrix and fracture seepage model and a two-phase steady-state flow model in the wellbore based on seepage mechanics, elastic mechanics, fluid mechanics, dual-porosity media model, etc. Figure 1 ); Considering the change of formation pressure after fracturing, which makes the proppant stress difference, a proppant stress model and a minimum critical velocity model for proppant activation of fracturing fluid return are established respectively, and a critical velocity model for coal powder activation in the fracture is established at the same time; thus, a complete optimization method for deep coal-bearing tight gas pressure return oil nozzle is constructed. Summary of the invention

[0005] The present invention proposes a new wellhead nozzle optimization method for controlling the nozzle during the backflow process after deep coal-rock gas fracturing. The method is based on seepage mechanics, elastic mechanics, fluid mechanics, and dual-porosity medium models. It takes into account the seepage in the matrix and fractures, the two-phase steady-state flow in the wellbore, the proppant after hydraulic fracturing, and the difference in the force of coal powder. The corresponding mathematical models are established respectively, and finally a new method for optimizing the size of the backflow nozzle after deep coal-rock gas pressure is constructed. Through this method, the relationship between the wellhead nozzle and the wellhead pressure of the corresponding fracturing well during the backflow process can be obtained according to the input basic construction and reservoir parameters. This method combines all the physical properties of deep coal-rock gas, is an important innovation in studying the backflow control theory after deep coal-rock gas pressure, and can serve as a good reference for scientific research and engineering applications.

[0006] The technical solution provided by the present invention to solve the above technical problems is: a method for optimizing the deep coal-rock gas pressure backflow nozzle considering the influence of multiple factors, comprising the following steps:

[0007] (1) Based on the dual-porosity medium model, a multi-stage and multi-cluster fracturing-flowback model was established to continuously simulate the injection and production processes. The physical behavior of the two-phase flow during fracturing and flowback was characterized by adjusting the fracturing fluid rate during the injection and production processes.

[0011] (5) As the flowback time increases, the formation pressure decreases, the phase state changes, and the reservoir IPR curve and the critical flow rate corresponding to the proppant start-up and the coal powder start-up in the fracture will also change. Repeat step (4) to obtain a new range of nozzle sizes after the formation pressure decreases. The corresponding wellhead pressure at this time is integrated with the optimized nozzle size to obtain a relationship map between the nozzle size and the wellhead pressure after fracturing.

[0012] A further technical solution is to establish a multi-stage multi-cluster fracturing-flowback model based on the dual-porosity medium model, continuously simulate the two processes of injection and production, and simulate the fracturing-flowback flow process by adjusting the fracturing fluid rate during injection and production. The fracturing-flowback model is shown below:

[0015] A further technical solution is that the specific process of step (2) is: establishing a flow model of the nozzle and wellbore system, and using the material balance principle to establish the pressure transfer relationship between the two and the fracturing-flowback model:

[0032] A further technical solution is that the specific process of step (5) is as follows: as the backflow time increases and the formation pressure decreases, the phase state will change, and the reservoir IPR curve and the critical flow rate corresponding to the proppant start-up and the coal powder start-up in the fracture will also change accordingly. By repeating step (4), a new range of nozzle sizes after the formation pressure decreases can be obtained. By integrating the corresponding wellhead pressure with the optimized nozzle size, a relationship map between the nozzle size and the wellhead pressure after the well is fracturing can be obtained (such as Figure 3 shown).

[0052] In the present invention, step (3) is to establish a critical flow model of proppant and coal powder in the fracture of deep coal gas reservoir, and the specific expression is as follows:

[0060] In the present invention, step (5) takes into account that the increase in flowback time will lead to a decrease in formation pressure, which will cause phase changes, thereby affecting the reservoir IPR curve and the critical flow rate corresponding to proppant startup and coal powder startup in the fracture; repeating step (4) can obtain a new range of nozzle sizes after the formation pressure is reduced, and integrate the corresponding wellhead pressure with the optimized nozzle size, such as Figure 3 As shown, we can get the relationship between the nozzle size and the wellhead pressure after fracturing.

[0061] Example 1: This example is implemented in a deep coal-rock gas reservoir in the Ordos Basin. The Ordos Basin is rich in deep coal-rock gas. Through on-site logging and well testing, geological data of the block are obtained, and the parameters obtained are representative.

[0063] 2. Substituting all geological parameters into the established model, i.e., formulas (1) to (10), we can obtain the relationship between the critical flow rate of the nozzle and the nozzle size, the reservoir IPR curve (the relationship between the bottom hole pressure difference and the flow rate), and the critical flow rate corresponding to the proppant start-up and the coal powder start-up in the fracture, and determine the nozzle size range under a certain formation pressure. Repeating the above steps, we can obtain the new nozzle size range after the formation pressure is reduced. By integrating the corresponding wellhead pressure with the optimized nozzle size, we can obtain the relationship between the formation pressure, water saturation distribution, and nozzle size and wellhead pressure during the flowback process after fracturing.
