Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the fields of stratigraphy, rock mechanics, mathematics, etc. According to the characteristics of complex mineral composition and strong heterogeneity of Paleozoic mud shale formations, a mathematical method is used to reconstruct shear waves, which effectively solves the difficulty in evaluating the brittleness index of Paleozoic mud shale formations and provides an efficient and accurate brittleness index calculation method and device. Background Art
[0002] At present, there are two methods for calculating and evaluating the brittleness index of Paleozoic mudstone: laboratory static measurement method and logging data dynamic calculation method. Although the laboratory static measurement method is accurate, it has great limitations: 1. Although the brittle mineral content data obtained in the laboratory is more accurate, the data are scattered and discontinuous scattered data, which cannot provide continuous evaluation in the vertical direction; 2. The ancient mudstone formation contains a variety of mineral components, and different minerals have different pore structures. Their destruction process under mechanical compaction is also different, and the brittle characteristics they show are also different; 3. The brittle characteristics of the formation rock are also affected by factors such as rock particle size, cementation, confining pressure, and pore fluid.
[0003] There are two types of dynamic calculation methods for logging data: direct measurement of full-wave acoustic waves and shear wave fitting of conventional longitudinal and acoustic waves. Full-wave acoustic logging calculates the brittleness index. It is a common engineering method that directly obtains the longitudinal and shear wave information of the formation through logging instruments and then obtains the brittleness index. However, due to the high cost of full-wave acoustic logging, it is not easy to promote and use on a large scale, and complex lithological characteristics will increase the difficulty of calculating the brittleness index. Summary of the invention

[0007] Alternatively, the Young's modulus E and Poisson's ratio μ It is calculated through well logging data. If the well logging data does not contain array acoustic logging data, the shear wave fitting model is used to calculate the fitting shear wave data, that is: DTDR=0.477GR +0.594AC+3.658CNL+0.788U+136.576 Where: GR is the natural gamma curve, API; AC is the compensated acoustic wave curve, μs / m; CNL is the compensated neutron curve, %; U is the gamma spectrum uranium content curve, % Then replace △t with the shear wave time difference DTDR s , replace △t with the compensation sound wave curve AC p , and then calculate the Young's modulus according to the situation that the logging data includes array acoustic logging data E and Poisson's ratio μ .

[0009] The specific solution process of the brittleness index is: BR = ( BR E + BR μ ) / 2×100% Where: BR is the brittleness index, %.
[0010] The logging data include conventional logging curves and special logging curves; the conventional logging curves include at least compensated acoustic wave curves AC, natural gamma curves GR, compensated neutron curves CNL, lithology density curves DEN and gamma energy spectrum uranium content curves U; the special logging curves include logging data that can obtain longitudinal wave time difference DTCR and shear wave time difference DTDR.
[0011] The logging data capable of obtaining the longitudinal wave time difference DTCR and the shear wave time difference DTDR include array acoustic logging data.
[0012] A brittleness index calculation device for Upper Paleozoic mudstone strata, comprising: A data acquisition module, used to acquire conventional logging curves and special logging curves of target formations; Intermediate parameter acquisition module, used to calculate Young's modulus through conventional logging curves and special logging curves of the target formation E and Poisson's ratio μ, and calculate their normalized values, respectively, through Young's modulus E Intermediate parameters for data acquisition BR E and through Poisson's ratio μ Intermediate parameters for data acquisition BR μ ; The brittleness index acquisition module is used to obtain the Young's modulus E Intermediate parameters for data acquisition BR E and through Poisson's ratio μ Intermediate parameters for data acquisition BR μ The arithmetic mean was obtained as the brittleness index.
[0013] The technical effects of the present invention are: The present invention uses conventional logging curves to perform multivariate linear regression, constructs a shear wave fitting model to fit shear wave data, and the calculated brittleness index is consistent with the measured Poisson's ratio. μ and Young's modulus E The calculated brittleness index has good conformity and is suitable for calculating the brittleness index of Paleozoic shale formations with complex mineral composition and strong heterogeneity in the absence of array acoustic logging data.
