[0262] In some embodiments, the execution entity may determine the optimal size range according to the second size range, the third size range, the fourth size range, and the fifth size range based on the following steps:

[0263] In the first step, if the second size range, the third size range and the fourth size range form a first intersection, and the second size range, the third size range and the fifth size range form a second intersection, the first intersection and the second intersection are determined as the optimal size range.

[0270] The present disclosure is further described below through a specific embodiment:

[0271] Taking the shale gas well Y10 in area A as an example, the optimization design of the post-pressure flowback nozzle system was carried out.

[0272] Step 1: Collect the reservoir parameters, fracture parameters, wellbore parameters, fluid parameters and proppant parameters of the shale gas reservoir of Well Y10. Including the minimum horizontal principal stress P c The hydraulic fracture height is 65MPa and H w is 40m, the hydraulic fracture width ω is 0.003m, the wellbore radius R is 0.031m, and the wellhead pressure P t 45~25MPa, bottom hole pressure P wf is 75~55MPa, the external pressure P0 is 0.1MPa, and the fracturing fluid density ρ l 1020kg / m 3 , fracturing fluid viscosity μ is 0.008~0.002Pa·s, proppant density ρ s 2780kg / m 3 , proppant particle size d s It is 0.0004m.

[0273] Step 2: Calculate according to the above method: When the bottom hole pressure P wf Greater than the minimum horizontal principal stress P c When the hydraulic fracture mouth flow velocity v is f Less than the critical sand flow rate v before crack closure cbThe corresponding nozzle size range is used as the appropriate nozzle size range to prevent proppant backflow before the fracture is closed, and is stored in U1 (the first size range). The appropriate nozzle size range to prevent proppant backflow before the fracture is closed in the Y10 well is 2 to 3 mm (the fourth size range). wf Less than the minimum horizontal principal stress P c When the hydraulic fracture mouth flow velocity v is f Less than the critical sand flow rate v after crack closure ca The corresponding nozzle size range is used as the suitable nozzle size range for preventing proppant backflow after fracture closure and is stored in U1. The suitable nozzle size range for preventing proppant backflow after fracture closure in well Y10 is 2-12 mm (the fifth size range).

[0274] Step 3: Collect the wellbore parameters and fluid parameters of the shale gas reservoir of Well Y10, including the wellbore full angle change rate R θ 0.001~5.8° / 30m, wellbore pressure P is 15~27MPa, wellbore temperature T is 296~349K, shale gas viscosity μ g 0.02×10 -3 ~0.03×10 -3 Pa·s, shale gas relative density γ g is 0.68, shale gas density ρ g 169~217kg / m 3 , shale gas deviation coefficient Z is 0.75-0.9, and the mineralization degree of flowback fracturing fluid is C s The liquid output is 45140ppm and Q l 15m 3 / d.

[0275] Step 4: Calculate the wellbore flow rate Q according to the above method: f Greater than the critical liquid carrying flow rate Q c The corresponding nozzle size range is used as the suitable nozzle size range for effective wellbore liquid carrying and is stored in U2 (second size range). The suitable nozzle size range for the wellbore flowback flow rate of Y10 well greater than the critical liquid carrying flow rate is 5-12 mm (second size range).

[0276] Step 5: Collect the reservoir parameters, well parameters, fracture parameters, fluid parameters and production dynamic parameters of the shale gas reservoir of Well Y10, including original formation pressure, seismic data, geological stratification data, wellhead data, wellbore trajectory data, logging interpretation results data, number of fracturing stages and clusters, fracturing fluid injection volume, fracture length, relative permeability data, capillary force curve data, stress sensitivity experimental data, pressure and output production dynamic data.

[0277] Step 6: Based on the original formation pressure, seismic data, geological stratification data, wellhead data, wellbore trajectory data, and logging interpretation data, a static geological model of Well Y10 was established using lithofacies modeling and attribute modeling methods, and geological modeling software such as Petrel.

[0278] Step 7: Discretize the static geological model and import it into reservoir numerical simulation software such as Eclipse, and establish a numerical simulation model for the Y10 well based on the number of fracturing segments, fracture length, relative permeability data, capillary force curve data, and stress sensitivity experimental data. Figure 8 shown.

[0279] Step 8: According to the injection volume of the fracturing fluid, the injection process of the fracturing fluid is simulated in the numerical simulation model of the Y10 well to obtain the formation pressure field and saturation field distribution at the end of the fracturing construction.

[0280] Step 9: Perform history fitting of the Y10 well based on the pressure and output production dynamic data to ensure that the history fitting accuracy of the numerical simulation model meets the requirements of field applications.

[0281] Step 10: Use the numerical simulation model to predict the EUR (ultimate recoverable reserves) of the Y10 well under different nozzle radius conditions, and use the nozzle size range corresponding to the maximum EUR value predicted by the numerical simulation as the appropriate nozzle size range that meets the EUR requirement, and store it in U3 (the third size range). As shown in Table 1, the nozzle size range corresponding to the maximum EUR value of the Y10 well is 5-6 mm (the third size range).

[0282] Nozzle size / mm <![CDATA[EUR / 10 8 m 3 ]]> 3~4 0.46186 5~6 0.54339 7~8 0.42548 9~10 0.37134

[0283] Table 1 EUR simulation of well Y10

[0284] Step 11: The intersection of the nozzle size ranges U1, U2, and U3 of the Y10 well is used as the optimal nozzle system for the post-pressure backflow of the shale gas well, and is stored in U4. U4 is a backflow nozzle system that can simultaneously meet the requirements of preventing proppant backflow, effective wellbore liquid carrying, and EUR. The nozzle size range U1 of the Y10 well is: the suitable nozzle size range for preventing proppant backflow before the fracture is closed is 2 to 3 mm, and the suitable nozzle size range for preventing proppant backflow after the fracture is closed is 2 to 12 mm. The nozzle size range U2 of the Y10 well is: the suitable nozzle size range for the wellbore backflow flow rate greater than the critical liquid carrying flow rate is 5 to 12 mm. The nozzle size range U3 of the Y10 well is: the nozzle size range corresponding to the maximum value of EUR is 5 to 6 mm. The intersection of nozzle ranges U1, U2, and U3 is taken as the optimal nozzle system for post-pressure flowback in Well Y10, and U4 is: the optimal nozzle size range before fracture closure is 2 to 3 mm, and the optimal nozzle size range after fracture closure is 5 to 6 mm.
