Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of rock physical property testing, and particularly relates to a method for calculating the water saturation of rocks. Background Technique

[0002] Coal resources are one of the important energy resources in China. During the coal mining process, water disasters often occur, seriously affecting the safe production of mines and the development and utilization of resources. The quality of coal mine water disaster prevention technology is directly related to the production economic benefits of mines and the lives and safety of employees. The prediction of the water body distribution, material source, sand body thickness, and physical properties (porosity, water saturation) of water-rich sandstones in the coal mine roof is crucial for coal mine water disaster prevention. When exploring and developing coal, it is necessary to accurately evaluate the distribution characteristics and physical properties of water-rich sand layers in the roof. The physical property parameters of water-rich sand bodies, porosity and saturation, are important parameters in water-rich evaluation. Their accuracy directly affects the correct evaluation of the water volume in roof sandstones and is also the most difficult parameter to calculate and measure in the prediction of water-rich sandstones.

[0003] The most commonly used methods for estimating water saturation are the resistivity method and the acoustic velocity method. The resistivity method for calculating water saturation generally calculates water saturation based on models such as Archie's formula, dual-water model, and Indonesian formula. When using the resistivity method to calculate water saturation, more parameters are required, and the calculation formula is relatively cumbersome. For estimating saturation by acoustic velocity, most are based on the equivalent medium theory. Taking the Wyllie time-average equation and Wood equation as examples, when using acoustic velocity to estimate saturation, it is a difficult point to determine the density of pore fluid in the unsaturated state. At present, there are also methods using nuclear magnetic resonance-density testing methods to simulate and test the water saturation under in-situ conditions, but the cost of this nuclear magnetic resonance instrument is expensive.
