Description

Technical field:

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of shale oil development, and in particular to a device and method for quantitatively evaluating the oil and gas production capacity of shale under reservoir conditions. Background technology:

[0002] With the increasing depletion of conventional oil and gas resources and the country's increasing demand for energy, the main direction of domestic research and development has begun to move towards shale resources. Shale reservoirs are characterized by low porosity and ultra-low permeability, and are generally developed by horizontal well volume fracturing. The imbibition effect causes the oil and gas in the shale matrix to be replaced by water into the cracks, thereby increasing the shale oil recovery rate. The shale imbibition process is simulated under reservoir conditions in the laboratory, and its oil and gas production capacity is quantitatively evaluated, which is of great significance for guiding the on-site fracturing construction parameters and drainage system.

[0003] At present, the commonly used imbibition experimental methods include mass method and volume method. The mass method evaluates the imbibition effect by hanging the core on a precision balance and measuring the mass change of the core before and after imbibition to obtain the imbibition rate and imbibition amount; the volume method evaluates the imbibition effect by directly measuring the volume of the output liquid, and determines the output and output rate of the liquid through tools such as a measuring cylinder. The existing technologies (CN201710006804, CN201811482680, CN201910359161, CN111521542A, CN202221906639, CN202210519102) have designed high-temperature and high-pressure visual imbibition devices that can simulate the imbibition environment under formation conditions. However, these methods only involve measuring the amount of oil produced by imbibition, while the real formation is a state of oil and gas mixing. Since the gas production of shale oil layers is not measured, it is impossible to reflect the real mining situation to a certain extent. At the same time, in the devices of these methods, a measuring glass tube made of high temperature and high pressure resistant sapphire glass is used, and the equipment is complex and expensive. In addition, the prior art (CN202221906639) places the Amott bottle containing the core and resistant to high temperature and high pressure on a rotating table, and reduces the error caused by the inability to observe the oil droplets by centrifugal force, but the centrifugal force will affect the experimental results, and there are certain limitations; the measuring glass tube of the prior art (CN202210519102) is directly connected to the imbibition chamber, which is prone to fragmentation caused by pressure changes, increasing the experimental risk and safety hazards.

[0004] The existing technologies (CN201710833425, CN201910681469, CN201911375069, CN202010325398, CN202311634613) combine the imbibition device with other technologies. While studying the imbibition amount and the imbibition rate, the imbibition process can be monitored from various angles. However, these technologies cannot place the equipment under high temperature and high pressure conditions, cannot accurately simulate the formation environment, the devices are complex and expensive, and there is no calculation of the gas production by imbibition of shale oil reservoirs, which also has limitations. Summary of the invention:

[0007] In the above scheme, a first valve is arranged at the inlet of the live oil intermediate container, and a third valve is arranged at the outlet; a second valve is arranged at the inlet of the imbibing agent intermediate container, and a fourth valve is arranged at the outlet.

[0008] In the above scheme, the drain valve and the fifth valve are connected in parallel to the steel sealing cover of the saturated imbibition chamber.

[0009] The method for quantitatively evaluating the shale oil and gas production capacity under the above reservoir conditions using the quantitative evaluation device comprises the following steps:

[0010] Step 1: Preparation of live oil: according to the gas-oil ratio of the wellhead at the oil field, natural gas is pressed into the degassed crude oil on the ground to prepare simulated oil;

[0011] Step 2: Shale core preparation and pretreatment;

[0012] Step 3: Calculate the liquid compression under formation temperature and pressure: Use a vacuum pump to evacuate the saturated imbibition chamber, and adjust the temperature of the thermostat to the reservoir temperature; Set the pressure of the constant speed and constant pressure pump to the reservoir pressure, and inject live oil into the saturated imbibition chamber in a constant pressure mode until the flow rate of the constant speed and constant pressure pump is 0, and record the change in the reading during the injection process of the constant speed and constant pressure pump as ΔV1;

[0018]

[0019] Where: L is the core length, D is the core diameter;

[0020] Step 7, shale imbibition oil and gas production simulation experiment under reservoir conditions: use a hand pump to set the back pressure valve pressure slightly lower than the reservoir pressure; set the pressure of the constant speed constant pressure pump to the reservoir pressure, quickly inject imbibition agent into the saturated imbibition chamber to replace the live oil therein, open the valve connecting the saturated imbibition chamber and the back pressure valve until the imbibition agent continuously flows out from the outlet of the back pressure valve, close the valve connecting the saturated imbibition chamber and the back pressure valve, at this time, the imbibition agent has completely filled the saturated imbibition chamber and the pipeline connected to the visual metering tube at its upper part, and start the high temperature and high pressure imbibition experiment of the shale core;

[0021] Step 8: During the high-temperature and high-pressure imbibition process, the pressure of the constant-speed constant-pressure pump is always maintained at the reservoir pressure. At regular intervals, the valve connected to the visual metering tube is slowly opened. Under the action of buoyancy, the oil and gas produced by imbibition during this period are discharged from the saturated imbibition chamber through the pipeline. When the imbibition agent flows out continuously, the valve is closed; the produced oil enters the visual metering tube, and the imbibition oil production in different time periods is recorded by reading the readings in the visual metering tube; the produced gas enters the drainage and gas collecting device along the pipeline, and the imbibition gas production in different time periods is recorded by reading the readings in the drainage and gas collecting device; T1, T2…T n The oil and gas output in the time period are recorded as V o1 and V g1 、V o2 and V g2 …V on and V gn ; No. T i The amount of gas produced by imbibition during the time period is T i With T i-1 The difference between the readings of the drainage gas collection device in the time period and the readings of the visual tube are subtracted; when the readings of the imbibition oil and gas output no longer increase, the imbibition ends, and the final imbibition oil output V is recorded. o , the gas output is V g ; Combining formula (4) and formula (5) to get T i Imbibition oil production rate per unit volume of shale core in a time period τ oi and gas production rate τ gi According to formulas (6) and (7), the imbibition oil production capacity of unit volume of shale core under reservoir conditions is evaluated as follows: o and gas production capacity η g :

[0022]

[0023] Where i = 1, 2…n; V oi T iOil output in a time period; V gi T i Gas output within a time period;

[0024]

[0025] Step nine, replace different imbibition media, different temperatures and pressures, and repeat steps one to eight to obtain the effects of different factors on shale imbibition oil and gas production.

[0026] The specific method of step 2 in the above scheme is as follows: a standard plug-like core with a length of 5 cm and a diameter of 2.5 cm is drilled from a full-size shale core in parallel to the bedding direction.

[0035] The quantitative evaluation method of shale oil and gas production capacity quantitative evaluation device under the above reservoir conditions is combined with Figure 1This quantitative evaluation method for shale oil and gas production capacity under reservoir conditions uses a real shale core drilled along the bedding direction with a diameter of 2.5 cm, a constant temperature box and a saturated imbibition chamber to accurately evaluate the shale saturated oil porosity and imbibition oil and gas production capacity under reservoir conditions. Specifically, it includes the following steps:

[0036] Step 1: Preparation of live oil: According to the gas-oil ratio of the wellhead at the oil field site, natural gas was pressed into the degassed crude oil on the ground at a ratio of 48.8:1 at a reservoir pressure of 37 MPa and a temperature of 110°C to prepare simulated oil.

[0037] Step 2: Preparation and pretreatment of shale samples. A standard plug-like core with a length of about 5 cm and a diameter of about 2.5 cm was drilled from a full-size shale core parallel to the bedding direction. The core was cylindrical and dried at a reservoir temperature of 110°C to a constant weight. The length of the core column L = 5.024 cm and the diameter D = 2.494 cm were accurately measured using a vernier caliper.

[0039] Step 4: Drain the residual oil. Slowly open the drain switch 3-1 at the upper end of the four-way valve above the saturated imbibition chamber and the drain valve 1-7 at the lower end until all the residual oil in the saturated imbibition chamber is drained, and then close the drain valve 1-7 and drain switch 3-1.

[0040] Step 5, preparation before saturation and imbibition. Open the steel sealing cover 8 of the saturated imbibition chamber, put the shale core on the imbibition net 7 of the saturated imbibition chamber, and close the steel sealing cover 8. Open the drain valve 1-7, start the vacuum pump 10, and vacuum the saturated imbibition chamber and the shale core for 48 hours.

[0042]

[0043] ΔV pore =V c -(ΔV1-ΔV2) (Formula 2)

[0044]

[0045] Step seven, simulation experiment of shale imbibition oil and gas production under reservoir conditions. Open the ninth valve 1-9, control the hand pump 12 to set the pressure of the back pressure valve 11 to 36.8MPa. Open the second valve 1-2, the fourth valve 1-4 and the second switch 3-2 at the lower end of the four-way valve, set the pressure of the constant speed constant pressure pump 14 to the reservoir pressure of 37MPa, quickly inject the imbibition agent into the saturated imbibition chamber 4 to replace the live oil therein, slowly open the eighth valve 1-8 until the outlet of the eighth valve 1-8 connected to the back pressure valve has imbibition agent continuously flowing out, close the eighth valve 1-8 and the second switch 3-2 at the lower end of the four-way valve.

[0046] Step eight, during the high-temperature and high-pressure imbibition process, always maintain the pressure of the constant-speed constant-pressure pump 14 at the reservoir pressure of 37MPa. Slowly open the sixth valve 1-6 and the tenth valve 1-10 on the 1st, 2nd, 4th, 8th, 12th, 16th, 20th, 25th and 30th days respectively. Under the action of buoyancy, the oil and gas produced by imbibition during this time period are discharged from the saturated imbibition chamber 4 through the pipeline. When the imbibition agent flows out continuously, close the sixth valve 1-6. The produced oil enters the visual metering tube 6. By reading the reading in the visual metering tube 6, the amount of imbibition oil produced in different time periods can be recorded; the produced gas enters the drainage and gas collecting device 15 along the pipeline. By reading the reading in the drainage and gas collecting device 15, the amount of imbibition gas produced in different time periods can be recorded. T1, T2…Tn The oil and gas output in the time period are recorded as V o1 and V g1 、V o2 and V g2 …V on and V gn (See Table 1 for details). i The amount of gas produced by imbibition during the time period is T i With T i-1 The difference in readings of the drainage gas collection device 15 during the time period is subtracted from the difference in readings of the visual metering tube 6. When the readings of the imbibition oil and gas output no longer increase, the imbibition is considered to be over, and the final imbibition oil output V is recorded. o =0.72ml, the gas output is V g =36.6cm 3 Further combining formula (4) and formula (5) to obtain T i Imbibition oil production rate per unit volume of shale core in a time period τ oi and gas production rate τ gi (See Table 1 for details). According to formulas (6) and (7), the imbibition oil production capacity per unit volume of shale core under reservoir conditions is evaluated as follows: o =0.029ml / cm 3 and gas production capacity η g =1.49cm 3 / cm 3 .

A method for quantitatively evaluating shale oil and gas production capacity under reservoir conditions using the device for quantitatively evaluating shale oil and gas production capacity under reservoir conditions according to claim 3, characterized in that The steps include: Step 1: Preparation of live oil: according to the gas-oil ratio of the wellhead at the oil field, natural gas is pressed into the degassed crude oil on the ground to prepare simulated oil; Step 2: Shale core preparation and pretreatment; Step 3: Calculate the liquid compression under formation temperature and pressure: Use a vacuum pump to evacuate the saturated imbibition chamber, and adjust the temperature of the thermostat to the reservoir temperature; Set the pressure of the constant speed and constant pressure pump to the reservoir pressure, and inject live oil into the saturated imbibition chamber in a constant pressure mode until the flow rate of the constant speed and constant pressure pump is 0, and record the change in the reading during the injection process of the constant speed and constant pressure pump as ΔV1; Step 4: Drain the residual oil: adjust the pressure of the saturated imbibition chamber to atmospheric pressure, and slowly open the drain switch above the saturated imbibition chamber and the drain valve below it until all the residual oil in the chamber is drained; Step 5, preparation before saturation and imbibition: open the steel sealing cover at the bottom of the saturated imbibition chamber, place the shale core on the imbibition net support, close the steel sealing cover, start the vacuum pump, and evacuate the saturated imbibition chamber and the shale core for 48 hours; Step 6: Saturate the core with live oil: Set the pressure of the constant speed and constant pressure pump to the reservoir pressure, and inject live oil into the saturated imbibition chamber in constant pressure mode until the flow rate of the constant speed and constant pressure pump is 0; keep the constant speed and constant pressure pump open, and saturate the core with live oil for 10 days under the conditions of reservoir temperature and pressure; after the core is saturated, record the change in the reading during the injection process of the constant speed and constant pressure pump as ΔV2; calculate the core volume V according to formula (1): c , the saturated oil volume ΔVpore is calculated according to formula (2), and the saturated oil porosity is calculated according to formula (3) φ o: Δ pore = -(ΔV - ΔV2) (Equation 2) Where: L is the core length, D is the core diameter; Step 7, shale imbibition oil and gas production simulation experiment under reservoir conditions: use a hand pump to set the back pressure valve pressure slightly lower than the reservoir pressure; set the pressure of the constant speed constant pressure pump to the reservoir pressure, quickly inject imbibition agent into the saturated imbibition chamber to replace the live oil therein, open the valve connecting the saturated imbibition chamber and the back pressure valve until the imbibition agent continuously flows out from the outlet of the back pressure valve, close the valve connecting the saturated imbibition chamber and the back pressure valve, at this time, the imbibition agent has completely filled the saturated imbibition chamber and the pipeline connected to the visual metering tube at its upper part, and start the high temperature and high pressure imbibition experiment of the shale core; Step 8: During the high-temperature and high-pressure imbibition process, the pressure of the constant-speed constant-pressure pump is always maintained at the reservoir pressure. At regular intervals, the valve connected to the visual metering tube is slowly opened. Under the action of buoyancy, the oil and gas produced by imbibition during this period are discharged from the saturated imbibition chamber through the pipeline. When the imbibition agent flows out continuously, the valve is closed; the produced oil enters the visual metering tube, and the imbibition oil production in different time periods is recorded by reading the readings in the visual metering tube; the produced gas enters the drainage and gas collecting device along the pipeline, and the imbibition gas production in different time periods is recorded by reading the readings in the drainage and gas collecting device; T1, T2…T n The oil and gas production in each time period are recorded as Vo1 and Vg1, Vo2 and Vg2, ... Von and Vgn respectively; the imbibition gas production in the Ti time period is T i With T i-1 The difference between the readings of the drainage gas collection device in the time period and the readings of the visual tube are subtracted; when the readings of the imbibition oil and gas output no longer increase, the imbibition ends, and the final imbibition oil output V is recorded. o , the gas output is V g ; Combining formula (4) and formula (5) to get T i Imbibition oil production rate per unit volume of shale core in a time period τ oi and gas production rate τ gi According to formulas (6) and (7), the imbibition oil production capacity of unit volume of shale core under reservoir conditions is evaluated as follows: o and gas production capacity η g : Where i = 1, 2…n; V oi T i Oil output in a time period; V gi T i Gas output within a time period; Step nine, replace different imbibition media, different temperatures and pressures, and repeat steps one to eight to obtain the effects of different factors on shale imbibition oil and gas production.
