[0030] Embodiment 1

[0031] Figure 1 This is a flowchart of a method for selecting a floating production, storage and offloading platform for an ultra-deepwater oil field provided in Example 1 of the present application. The present application embodiment can be applied to the situation of selecting a floating production, storage and offloading platform suitable for an ultra-deepwater oil field. The method can be executed by a floating production, storage and offloading platform selection device for an ultra-deepwater oil field. The floating production, storage and offloading platform selection device for an ultra-deepwater oil field can be implemented in the form of hardware and / or software. The floating production, storage and offloading platform selection device for an ultra-deepwater oil field can be configured in an electronic device. Figure 1 As shown, the method includes:

[0032] S110. Determine the reservoir size, reservoir, fault distribution and sedimentary phase characteristics of the ultra-deepwater oil field based on seismic and geological data, and predict the reservoir geological reserves of the reservoir based on the reservoir size, reservoir, fault distribution and sedimentary phase characteristics.

[0033] Among them, reservoir size refers to the amount of oil or natural gas that can be stored in the reservoir, which is generally evaluated and described by the enclosed area, enclosed volume, enclosed thickness, enclosed reserves, etc.

[0034] A fault is a crack or fracture surface in the earth's crust. Fault distribution refers to the location, direction and arrangement of faults within a certain geographical range.

[0035] Sedimentary facies characteristics refer to the characteristics of sediments formed under different environmental conditions during the geological history. Common sedimentary facies characteristics include sediment composition, sedimentary structure, fossil content, color and grain size, and lithofacies superposition relationship.

[0036] Specifically, when determining the reservoir size, fault distribution and sedimentary phase characteristics of ultra-deepwater oil fields based on seismic and geological data, four steps are generally followed: interpretation of seismic and geological data, determination of fault distribution through fault analysis, determination of sedimentary phase characteristics through sedimentary phase analysis, and determination of reservoir size. It should be noted that each oil field has its own unique geological characteristics, so the above are only general analysis steps, and the specific determination method will be adjusted and optimized according to actual conditions and data availability. After that, the reservoir geological reserves of the reservoir can be predicted based on the reservoir size, fault distribution and sedimentary phase characteristics.

[0037] S120. Based on the production characteristics of the test wells, predict the production characteristics of the reservoir and each single well throughout its life cycle.

[0038] Among them, production characteristics refer to a series of characteristics exhibited during the production process. Understanding and analyzing production characteristics is of great significance for evaluating the development potential of oil and gas fields, formulating production strategies, and predicting output. Test wells refer to oil wells in the production process in the reservoir.

[0039] In the embodiment of the present application, the production characteristics of the test well can be determined by analyzing and interpreting the test well data to obtain the test analysis results, and the production characteristics of the oil reservoir and each single well in the whole life cycle can be predicted based on the production characteristics of the test well. Optionally, based on similar geological conditions, by referring to the production characteristics of the test well, by establishing analogy and applying empirical rules, the production characteristics of the oil reservoir and each single well in the whole life cycle can be predicted.

[0040] S130. Determine a connection scheme between at least one floating production storage and offloading platform and at least one oil reservoir according to the geological reserves and production characteristics of the oil reservoir and the length of the underwater pipeline required for connection with the floating production storage and offloading platform.

[0041] Among them, a floating production, storage and offloading platform (FPSO) is an offshore facility with oil and gas processing and storage capabilities, used for production, storage and export in offshore oil and gas fields. It combines the functions of an oil storage vessel and a production platform, is usually connected to one or more production wells, and completes the collection and storage of produced oil and gas through underwater pipelines. Floating production, storage and offloading platforms have the advantages of rapid deployment, strong adaptability and high mobility, and are widely used in offshore oil and gas development projects, especially for oil and gas fields with larger water depths.

[0042] It is understood that when determining the connection scheme between the floating production storage and offloading platform and at least one oil reservoir, in addition to the reservoir geological reserves and production characteristics of the oil reservoir, it is also necessary to consider the length of the underwater pipeline required for connecting the oil reservoir and the floating production storage and offloading platform. Generally speaking, the length of the underwater pipeline can be determined based on the distance between the oil reservoir and the floating production storage and offloading platform and the water depth. In addition, it should be noted that considering the feasibility of pipeline laying, maintenance and operation, it is also necessary to evaluate the diameter, material selection and pressure bearing capacity of the underwater pipeline.

[0043] In the embodiment of the present application, after determining the geological reserves of the oil reservoir, the production characteristics and the length of the underwater pipeline required for connection with the floating production, storage and offloading platform, the connection scheme between the floating production, storage and offloading platform and at least one oil reservoir can be determined by comprehensively considering the above three important factors.

[0044] S140. Determine the target connection scheme, the scale and type of floating production storage and offloading platform device based on the processing and transportation data required for the entire life cycle of each scheme, combined with the economic evaluation data of production and investment sensitivity.

[0045] Among them, the resource processing capacity data is used to evaluate the processing capacity and production capacity of the floating production, storage and offloading platform, the economic evaluation data is used to evaluate the economic feasibility of the floating production, storage and offloading platform, and the output investment sensitivity analysis data is used to evaluate the relationship between the output and investment of the floating production, storage and offloading platform, and to evaluate its sensitivity to changes in different parameters.

[0046] It is understandable that when determining the connection scheme between the floating production storage and offloading platform and at least one oil reservoir, at least one connection scheme that meets the requirements can be obtained. In the embodiment of the present application, according to the actual situation, by analyzing and evaluating the resource processing capacity data, economic evaluation data, and production investment sensitivity analysis data of the floating production storage and offloading platform of each connection scheme, the most suitable connection scheme, i.e., the target connection scheme, can be determined from at least one connection scheme.

[0047] The technical solution of the embodiment of the present application determines the reservoir scale, reservoir, fault distribution and sedimentary phase characteristics of the ultra-deepwater oil field based on seismic data and geological data, and predicts the geological reserves of the reservoir; predicts the production characteristics of the reservoir and each single well throughout the life cycle based on the production characteristics of the test well; determines the connection scheme of at least one floating production storage and offloading platform device and at least one oil reservoir based on the geological reserves of the reservoir, production characteristics and the required underwater pipeline length; determines the target connection scheme, the scale and selection of the floating production storage and offloading platform device based on the processing and gathering data required for the entire life cycle of each scheme, combined with the economic evaluation data of production and investment sensitivity. The above scheme can give full play to the potential of the reservoir, meet the processing and gathering needs of the entire life cycle, and have considerable economic efficiency through a selection method that comprehensively considers factors such as geological reserves, production characteristics, investment and economic evaluation.

[0048] Embodiment 2

[0049] Figure 2 This is a flow chart of a method for selecting a floating production storage and offloading platform for an ultra-deepwater oil field provided in Example 2 of this application. This embodiment of this application is optimized based on the above embodiment. For solutions not fully described in the embodiment of this application, please refer to the above embodiment. Figure 2 As shown, the method of the embodiment of the present application specifically includes the following steps:

[0050] S210. Determine the reservoir size, reservoir, fault distribution and sedimentary phase characteristics of the ultra-deepwater oil field based on seismic and geological data, and predict the reservoir geological reserves of the reservoir based on the reservoir size, reservoir, fault distribution and sedimentary phase characteristics.

[0051] In the embodiment of the present application, when determining the reservoir scale, reservoir, fault distribution and sedimentary phase characteristics of the ultra-deepwater oil field based on seismic data and geological data, the first step is to determine the fault distribution of the ultra-deepwater oil field.

[0052] Specifically, based on seismic and geological data, the reservoir size, reservoir, fault distribution and sedimentary phase characteristics of ultra-deepwater oil fields are determined, including:

[0053] Based on the 3D seismic data of the seabed, the synthetic seismic records are calibrated to determine the seismic reflection characteristics of each target layer;

[0054] A three-dimensional structural interpretation is carried out based on the seismic reflection characteristics of each layer to determine the fault distribution of the oil reservoir.

[0055] According to the three-dimensional seismic data of the seabed, the method of calibrating synthetic seismic records can be used to determine the seismic reflection characteristics of each target layer. This process usually includes the following steps: 1. Seismic simulation, using seismic simulation software to generate synthetic seismic records based on seismic data and geological models. Seismic simulation can be performed based on the geological attributes, velocity model and wave source parameters of the target layer. 2. Inversion analysis, comparing the synthetic seismic records with the actual observed seismic data, and determining the seismic reflection characteristics of the target layer by inversion analysis. Inversion can use various seismic processing and interpretation techniques, such as reflection amplitude analysis, travel time analysis, frequency analysis, etc. 3. Calibration fitting, comparing the synthetic seismic records with the actual observed data, and adjusting parameters and calibration fitting, so that the synthetic seismic records can more accurately reflect the seismic reflection characteristics of the target layer. This step includes adjusting seismic simulation parameters, velocity model, filtering parameters, etc. 4. Interpretation analysis, based on the results after calibrating the synthetic seismic records, interpret and analyze the seismic reflection characteristics of the target layer, including determining the position of the reflection interface, changes in reflection amplitude, changes in lithology, etc. By calibrating synthetic seismic records, we can further understand the geological characteristics of the target layer and help make decisions on oil and gas exploration and development. Therefore, we can determine the seismic reflection characteristics of each target layer, and conduct three-dimensional structural interpretation based on the seismic reflection characteristics of each layer, complete layer tracking and fault combination, and determine the fault distribution of the reservoir.

[0056] After the fault distribution of the oil reservoir is determined, the reservoir size and sedimentary phase characteristics of the ultra-deepwater oil field can be determined based on seismic data and geological data, and the geological reserves of the oil reservoir can be predicted based on the reservoir size, reservoir, fault distribution and sedimentary phase characteristics.

[0057] Specifically, the oil reservoir scale, reservoir, fault distribution and sedimentary facies characteristics of ultra-deepwater oil fields are determined based on seismic data and geological data, and the oil reservoir geological reserves of the oil reservoir are predicted based on the oil reservoir scale, reservoir, fault distribution and sedimentary facies characteristics, including:

[0058] For single well phases in the reservoir, the sedimentary phase is determined based on the seismic phase;

[0059] Determining the geological reserves of the oil reservoir of the single well phase according to the well logging curve of the single well phase;

[0060] According to the continuity characteristics of the sedimentary phase in the oil reservoir, the geological reserves of the oil reservoir outside the single well phase are determined.

[0061] Among them, single well phase refers to the change in rock type or lithology observed in a single well. Single well phase analysis is to identify and interpret the properties and composition of formation rocks through information such as core samples, measurement data and seismic data obtained during the drilling process. Seismic phase refers to the seismic phase in the seismic record, which is the characteristic manifestation of different types of waveforms during the propagation of seismic waves underground.

[0062] Based on the single well phase and combined with the seismic phase characteristics, the sedimentary phases of different layers can be determined. At the same time, due to the continuity of the sedimentary phase, the geological reserves of the reservoirs in the single well phase determined by the well logging curve of the single well phase can be referred to to determine the geological reserves of the reservoirs outside the single well phase. In this way, the scale of the reservoirs in the ultra-deepwater oilfield can be determined.

[0063] S220. Determine the pore type, flow boundary and inter-well interference data of the test well based on the test well interpretation results, and determine the oil production capacity data and liquid production capacity data based on the relative permeability results.

[0064] Among them, pore type refers to the different types of pore structures existing in different rocks. Flow boundary refers to the regional boundary where fluid movement exists in geology or fluid dynamics, such as the oil-water interface. Interwell interference data refers to the measurement data generated by the interaction between wells during the development of an oil field. Oil production capacity data and liquid production capacity data are data that evaluate or describe the oil production capacity and gas production capacity of an oil well or oil field, respectively. The pore type, flow boundary, interwell interference data, oil production capacity data, and liquid production capacity data of the test well are the production characteristics of the test well.

[0065] In the embodiment of the present application, the pore type, flow boundary and inter-well interference data of the test well can be determined through the test well interpretation results, while the oil production capacity data and liquid production capacity data are determined through the relative permeability results.

[0066] S230. Predict the production characteristics of the reservoir and each single well throughout their life cycle based on production test data, pore types, flow boundaries, well interference data, oil production capacity data, and liquid production capacity data.

[0067] In the embodiment of the present application, the production characteristics of the oil reservoir and each single well throughout the life cycle are predicted based on the test production data, pore type, flow boundary, well-to-well interference data, oil production capacity data, and liquid production capacity data, that is, the production characteristics of the oil reservoir and each single well throughout the life cycle are predicted based on the test production data and the production characteristics of the test production well. Optionally, based on similar geological conditions, by referring to the production characteristics of the test production well and the test production data, by establishing an analogy relationship and applying empirical rules, the production characteristics of the oil reservoir and each single well throughout the life cycle can be predicted. Among them, the initial production capacity and long-term production influencing factors can be determined through the test production data.

[0068] S240. Determine the number and distribution of injection and production wells and the number of floating production, storage and offloading platforms based on the required reserve range of the floating production, storage and offloading platform, the geological reserves and production characteristics of the oil reservoir, the required length of the underwater pipeline and the length of the underwater pipeline required to connect the injection and production wells to the floating production, storage and offloading platform.

[0069] In the embodiments of the present application, the required reserve range of the floating production storage and offloading platform should match the geological reserves and production characteristics of the oil reservoir. By studying the geological reserves and production characteristics of the oil reservoir, the single well production capacity and oil production potential of the oil well can be determined, which will help determine the number and distribution pattern of reasonable injection and production wells. The required length of the underwater pipeline should match the length of the underwater pipeline required to connect the injection and production wells with the floating production storage and offloading platform. The length of the underwater pipeline is determined based on the distance between the injection and production wells and the floating production storage and offloading platform and the transportation capacity of the underwater pipeline, which will affect the layout and connection plan of the injection and production wells. By way of example, Figure 3 An underwater pipeline diagram of a floating production storage and offloading platform is shown. As shown in the figure, the floating production storage and offloading platform is located above water, and the injection and production wells are located underwater, and the two are connected through the underwater pipeline in the middle. Thus, the number and distribution of the injection and production wells and the number of floating production storage and offloading platforms can be determined. It can be understood that there is more than one number and distribution of the injection and production wells and the number of floating production storage and offloading platforms that meet the above premise.

[0070] S250: Determine a connection scheme between at least one floating production storage and offloading platform and at least one oil reservoir according to the number and distribution of injection and production wells and the number of floating production storage and offloading platforms.

[0071] In the embodiment of the present application, when determining the connection scheme between the floating production storage and offloading platform and at least one oil reservoir, different connection schemes can be formulated according to the number and distribution of different injection and production wells and the number of floating production storage and offloading platforms. It should be noted that when determining the connection scheme, the position of the floating production storage and offloading platform needs to be considered, that is, the relative position of the floating production storage and offloading platform and the underwater wellhead is reasonable, the total length of the underwater pipeline is the shortest, the seabed topography and engineering geological conditions, etc.

[0072] S260. Determine the target connection scheme, the scale and type of floating production storage and offloading platform device based on the processing and transportation data required for the entire life cycle of each scheme, combined with the economic evaluation data of production and investment sensitivity.

[0073] In the embodiment of the present application, before determining the target connection solution, it is necessary to first determine the resource processing capacity data of the floating production storage and offloading platform.

[0074] Specifically, the process of determining resource processing capacity data includes: determining the oil, gas and water processing capacity of the floating production storage and offloading platform based on the oil and gas production, production oil-gas ratio and water content change data of the injection and production wells connected to the floating production storage and offloading platform.

[0075] By connecting the oil and gas production, production oil-gas ratio and water content change data of the injection and production wells of the floating production storage and offloading platform, the oil production, gas production and water production of the injection and production wells can be calculated. The oil production, gas production and water production of the injection and production wells are also the oil processing capacity, gas processing capacity and water processing capacity of the floating production storage and offloading platform. For example, Table 1 shows the processing capacity table of the floating production storage and offloading platform, which includes the oil, gas and water processing capacity of the floating production storage and offloading platform of different production units, as well as other related contents.

[0076] Table 1 Processing capacity of floating production storage and offloading platform

[0077]

[0078] After determining the resource processing capacity data of the floating production storage and offloading platform, the target connection scheme can be determined based on the resource processing capacity data of the floating production storage and offloading platform, economic evaluation data, and production investment sensitivity analysis data of each connection scheme.

[0079] Specifically, based on the processing and gathering data required for the entire life cycle of each solution, combined with the economic evaluation data of production and investment sensitivity, the target connection solution, the scale and selection of the floating production storage and offloading platform device are determined, including:

[0080] Under the condition that the resource processing capacity data of the floating production storage and offloading platform of each connection scheme meets the resource production volume of the connected injection and production wells, economic evaluation is performed to obtain economic evaluation data, and production investment sensitivity analysis is performed to determine production investment sensitivity analysis data;

[0081] Determine the target connection plan based on economic evaluation data and output investment sensitivity analysis data.

[0082] It is understandable that when determining the connection scheme between the floating production storage and offloading platform and at least one oil reservoir, at least one connection scheme that meets the requirements can be obtained. In the embodiment of the present application, according to the actual situation, when the resource processing capacity data of the floating production storage and offloading platform of each connection scheme meets the resource production of the connected injection and production well, the most suitable connection scheme, i.e., the target connection scheme, can be determined from at least one connection scheme by analyzing and evaluating the economic evaluation data and the production investment sensitivity analysis data of the floating production storage and offloading platform of each connection scheme.

[0083] The embodiment of the present application provides a method for selecting a floating production storage and offloading platform for an ultra-deepwater oil field, which determines the reservoir scale, fault distribution and sedimentary phase characteristics of the ultra-deepwater oil field based on seismic data and geological data, and predicts the reservoir geological reserves of the reservoir based on the reservoir scale, fault distribution and sedimentary phase characteristics; determines the pore type, flow boundary and well interference data of the test well based on the test well interpretation results, and determines the oil production capacity data and liquid production capacity data based on the relative permeability realization results; predicts the entire life cycle of the reservoir and each single well based on the test production data, pore type, flow boundary, well interference data, oil production capacity data and liquid production capacity data The production characteristics of the period; according to the reserve requirement range of the floating production storage and offloading platform and the geological reserves and production characteristics of the oil reservoir, the required length of the underwater pipeline and the length of the underwater pipeline required for the connection between the injection and production wells and the floating production storage and offloading platform, determine the number and distribution of the injection and production wells and the number of floating production storage and offloading platforms; according to the number and distribution of the injection and production wells and the number of floating production storage and offloading platforms, determine the connection scheme between the floating production storage and offloading platform and at least one oil reservoir; according to the resource processing capacity data, economic evaluation data and production investment sensitivity analysis data of the floating production storage and offloading platform of each connection scheme, determine the target connection scheme. The technical scheme of the embodiment of the present application can give full play to the potential of the oil reservoir, meet the processing and gathering and transportation needs of the whole life cycle, and have considerable economic efficiency through a selection method that comprehensively considers factors such as geological reserves, production characteristics, investment and economic evaluation.
