Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of [insert field here], specifically relating to a method and related equipment for evaluating effective porosity and heavy oil saturation. Background Technology
[0002] Some reservoirs in certain areas are characterized by low porosity, ultra-low permeability, and low pressure. Nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) logging is an effective method for evaluating and calculating parameters of low-porosity and ultra-low-permeability reservoirs, but it has the following problems:
[0003] First, existing nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy techniques were developed for sandstone and mudstone reservoirs with conventional porosity and permeability, but their applicability to low-porosity and permeability reservoirs has not yet been studied and demonstrated. For example... Figure 1 As shown, the T2 NMR spectrum of the core exhibits a main peak distribution between 1-10 ms (TE = 0.6 ms for unwashed oil samples and TE = 0.2 ms for washed oil samples), with subsequent peak areas being relatively small, consistent with the pore throat distribution and high bound water permeability in this region. Figure 2 As shown, the characteristics of the spectral analysis after MRIL-P or MRT nuclear magnetic resonance logging are not obvious, and the porosity of nuclear magnetic logging is significantly different from that of core nuclear magnetic resonance analysis, with the porosity being about 3%-5% smaller. The commonly used logging processing methods result in large errors, which are far from meeting the porosity accuracy requirements for tight oil and gas evaluation in areas with "three lows" characteristics.
[0004] Second, core experiments show that if the reservoir contains heavy oil and the content of heavy oil has a significant impact on the saturation of movable oil, the current evaluation method cannot accurately calculate and evaluate the saturation of heavy oil in reservoirs with the characteristics of "three lows" (low oil content, low water content, and low oil content).

This method calculates multiple porosity components from collected echo measurements, then uses a dynamic logarithmic spectral composition method combined with porosity component inversion to retrieve the T2 spectrum. Finally, MRIL-P or MRT is used to interpret the retrieved T2 spectrum to obtain the effective porosity. This method is based on the analysis of the MRIL-P or MRT spectral interpretation principle, generating the T2 spectrum through logarithmic spectral composition. Using logarithmic spectral composition can solve the problems of low accuracy and information loss of binding peaks before a certain time, thus accurately obtaining the effective porosity. Comparing the effective porosity calculated by the above method with helium porosity, the error is reduced to within 1.5%, significantly improving the accuracy of porosity interpretation.
[0041] This invention also provides a method for evaluating the saturation of heavy oil. Based on the aforementioned effective porosity evaluation method, this method involves subtracting the long-waiting-time and short-waiting-time maps to obtain a map excluding small-pore water. Then, the map excluding small-pore water is calibrated using two-dimensional nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) measurements to obtain the heavy oil porosity. Finally, the effective porosity is combined to calculate the heavy oil saturation. Both the long-waiting-time and short-waiting-time maps are obtained using MRIL-P or MRT nuclear magnetic resonance logging. This allows for the accurate calculation of heavy oil saturation in reservoirs with "three low" characteristics (low temperature, low humidity, and low water content). Attached Figure Description

[0097] Example
[0098] The present invention will be further described below with reference to embodiments and accompanying drawings:
[0099] To address the problem in the background art that current evaluation methods cannot accurately calculate and evaluate porosity and heavy oil saturation in reservoirs with "three low" characteristics (low porosity, low water content, and low oil content), this embodiment provides an effective porosity evaluation method, such as... Figure 10 As shown, the specific steps are as follows:
[0100] The first step is to analyze the reasons for the large errors, that is, how to improve the accuracy of the assessment:
[0101] like Figure 3 As shown, both MRIL-P and MRT spectral analysis use a 2n point layout with a starting point at 0.5ms. During the splicing process, a 4ms splicing point is used, resulting in low accuracy and information loss of the bound peaks before 10ms. Therefore, the point layout method needs improvement and optimization.
[0102] The second step is to improve the way the points are placed in the map.
[0103] This embodiment uses a logarithmic point distribution method, that is, the first point is located at 0.1ms, thereby supplementing the information from 0.1ms to 0.5ms (e.g., Figure 3 (As shown). In addition, during the spectral interpretation process, the NMR logging tool acquires T2 CPMG spin echo trains containing hundreds or even thousands of echoes, i.e., echo measurements.
[0104] The third step is to invert the T2 spectrum, which includes the following steps:
[0105] The inversion process involves making the error ε i Minimize the echo amplitude g of a set of T2 spectra obtained from a set of echo measurements. i The specific formula is as follows:
[0106]
[0107]
[0108] Where i = 1, ..., n; M(t) i ) represents the macroscopic magnetization; m represents the number of echoes; n represents the number of relaxation components; t i Indicates the collection time; g i ε represents the measured echo amplitude. i Indicates measurement error; T j This represents the pre-selected relaxation time distribution; a j f represents the weight value of each distribution point; j φ(f) represents the porosity component at each location; φ(f) represents the measurement error function; σ represents the noise factor.
[0109] It should be noted that by solving the above two formulas using Singular Value Decomposition (SVD), f can be obtained. j f j The porosity components corresponding to each distribution point are obtained; that is, when the measurement error is minimized, the porosity component f is calculated. j During the spectral assembly process, a dynamic logarithmic spectral assembly method was used to retain the maximum values of the PR and A components before 10 ms in the original T2 spectrum, thus obtaining a T2 spectrum similar to that of an NMR experiment, such as... Figure 4 As shown; among them, Group A and PR: MRIL-P instrument observation mode, single TW / single TE mode, its measurement principle is to use 9 frequencies, and the echo trains they collected are divided into two groups, namely Group A and PR (used for the observation of mud-bound water).
[0110] The fourth step is to interpret the T2 spectrum, determine the effective porosity, and perform error analysis.
[0111] Effective porosity was calculated using the aforementioned spectral splicing and interpretation methods. By comparing this with helium porosity from core analysis, the error was reduced to within 1.5%, with most errors less than 1%, thus improving the interpretation accuracy. Figure 5 As shown.
[0112] To address the issue of poor accuracy in evaluating heavy oil saturation using existing methods, this embodiment also provides a method for evaluating heavy oil saturation, such as... Figure 11 As shown, the specific steps include:
[0113] The first step is to calculate the porosity of heavy oil: the proportion of heavy oil count in the total two-dimensional NMR count is measured using core two-dimensional NMR, and the porosity of heavy oil in two-dimensional NMR is obtained.
[0114] The second step is to obtain the water spectrum after removing the pinholes: such as Figure 7 As shown, a short waiting time (20ms) only polarizes the water signal in the orifice, while a long waiting time (12s) can polarize both the water and heavy oil in the orifice. The difference between the long and short waiting time spectra yields the spectrum after removing the water from the orifice.
[0115] The third step is to calculate the heavy oil saturation using nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) logging: The two-dimensional NMR heavy oil porosity map is calibrated against the data after removing small pore water, such as... Figure 8 As shown, T2 = 4ms is the cutoff value for calculating the porosity of heavy oil; the saturation of heavy oil is calculated based on the porosity of heavy oil and the measured effective porosity; the heavy oil saturation here is a continuous heavy oil saturation, and the movable oil saturation can be obtained through this heavy oil saturation.
[0116] Wherein, heavy oil saturation = heavy oil porosity ÷ effective porosity.
[0117] like Figure 6 (a) and Figure 6 As shown in (b), the two-dimensional NMR heavy oil saturation is calculated using core two-dimensional NMR. Specifically, the core is saturated with water, the effective porosity of the core NMR T2 spectrum is measured, and the two-dimensional NMR heavy oil saturation is calculated. Here, the two-dimensional NMR heavy oil saturation is a discrete heavy oil saturation and has no practical reference value.
[0118] Furthermore, this embodiment also provides a method for evaluating movable oil saturation. Based on the above-described heavy oil saturation evaluation method, the movable oil saturation can be obtained from the heavy oil saturation measured by the above method. Specifically:
[0119] like Figure 9 As shown, heavy oil is considered as a non-conductive mineral, and the oil saturation is calculated using Archie's formula with the porosity of the removed heavy oil. The resulting oil saturation is the movable oil saturation.
[0120] In the specific implementation of the above embodiments, the above formulas can be compiled into code using languages such as FORTRAN or C on the well logging interpretation and processing software, and then compiled into a well logging processing and interpretation module and attached to the software. The application of the processing and interpretation module can process a single well.
[0121] like Figure 12 As shown, MRIL-P or MRT nuclear magnetic resonance logging is performed by sampling and spectral analysis to calculate effective porosity and heavy oil saturation.
[0122] The above embodiments are merely one of the implementation methods for achieving the technical solution of the present invention. The scope of protection claimed by the present invention is not limited to this embodiment, but also includes any variations, substitutions and other implementation methods that can be easily conceived by those skilled in the art within the scope of the technology disclosed in the present invention.
