Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This application relates to the technical field of geological exploration and development, and particularly relates to a method and device for discriminating shale reservoir types. Background Art
[0002] Shale oil is an unconventional oil and gas resource. Its reservoir characteristics are significantly different from those of conventional trap-accumulated oil reservoirs. It does not have typical trap characteristics and lacks a unified oil-water interface. Generally, it accumulates within the source rock or near the source rock, and the reservoir shows the characteristics of large-area continuous enrichment. Therefore, due to the differences in reservoir characteristics and formation mechanisms, the method for classifying shale reservoir types cannot be directly applied from conventional oil reservoirs.
[0003] Currently, there is no scientific and reliable method for classifying shale reservoir types. In the process of exploration practice, shale oil is generally classified into pure shale type, mixed sedimentary type, and interlayer type according to the type of shale oil reservoir. This classification method is mainly based on the characteristics of the reservoir body of shale oil and is a qualitative description method. It is easily affected by human subjective factors, resulting in inaccurate classification of reservoir types. Moreover, this method does not truly classify based on the formation mechanism of shale reservoirs and cannot provide strong support for subsequent reservoir resource analysis and exploration and development deployment using reservoir types. Summary of the Invention
[0004] In view of this, the purpose of this application is to provide at least a method and device for discriminating shale reservoir types. By using the differences in shale oil formation mechanisms as the main basis for discriminating shale reservoir types, it can reliably reveal the characteristics of shale reservoirs, provide a reliable evaluation basis for subsequent reservoir resource analysis, and improve the effectiveness of subsequent reservoir exploration deployment and development plan selection.

[0026] There is no scientific and reliable method for classifying shale reservoir types. In the process of exploration practice, shale oil is generally classified into pure shale type, mixed sedimentary type, and interlayer type according to the type of shale oil reservoir. This classification method is mainly based on the characteristics of the reservoir body of shale oil and is a qualitative description method, which is easily affected by human subjective factors, resulting in inaccurate classification of reservoir types. Moreover, this method does not truly classify the types based on the origin of shale reservoirs and cannot provide strong data support for subsequent reservoir resource analysis using reservoir types.
[0027] Based on this, the embodiments of the present application provide a method and device for discriminating shale reservoir types. By mainly relying on the differences in the origin of shale oil to discriminate shale reservoir types, it can reliably reveal the characteristics of shale reservoirs, provide a reliable evaluation basis for subsequent reservoir resource analysis, and improve the effectiveness of subsequent reservoir exploration deployment and development plan selection, as follows:
[0028] Please refer to Figure 1 , Figure 1 which shows the flow chart of a method for discriminating shale reservoir types provided by the embodiments of the present application. As Figure 1 shown, the method provided by the embodiments of the present application includes the following steps:

[0033] In specific implementation, step S100 includes:
[0034] Perform pyrolysis and total organic carbon content analysis on the pressure-maintained sealed cores corresponding to the shale oil reservoirs in the study area, determine the pyrolysis and total organic carbon parameters corresponding to the shale oil reservoirs, based on the pyrolysis and total organic carbon parameters, determine the current hydrocarbon generation potential index and the original hydrocarbon generation potential index corresponding to the shale oil reservoirs, and determine the crude oil accumulation origin type corresponding to the shale oil reservoirs according to the current hydrocarbon generation potential index and the original hydrocarbon generation potential index.
[0035] Specifically, obtain the pressure-maintained sealed core corresponding to the shale oil reservoir in the study area, conduct total organic carbon and pyrolysis analysis tests on the pressure-maintained sealed core under the condition of low-temperature nitrogen protection, and obtain the pyrolysis and total organic carbon parameters corresponding to the shale oil reservoir. The pyrolysis and total organic carbon parameters include at least one of the following items: total organic carbon content TOC, pyrolysis free hydrocarbon amount S1, pyrolytic cracking hydrocarbon amount S2, and maximum pyrolysis peak temperature Tmax. Based on the pyrolysis and total organic carbon parameters, the current hydrocarbon generation potential index and the original hydrocarbon generation potential index of the shale oil reservoir can be further calculated.
[0036] In a preferred embodiment, the current hydrocarbon generation potential index corresponding to the shale oil reservoir is determined by the following method:
[0037] Calculate the first sum value between the pyrolysis free hydrocarbon amount and the pyrolytic cracking hydrocarbon amount, and determine the ratio between the first sum value and the total organic carbon content as the current hydrocarbon generation potential index corresponding to the shale oil reservoir.
[0038] In a specific embodiment, the current hydrocarbon generation potential index corresponding to the shale oil reservoir is determined by the following formula :
[0039]
[0040] In a preferred embodiment, the original hydrocarbon generation potential corresponding to the shale oil reservoir is determined by the following method:
[0041] According to the ratio between the pyrolytic cracking hydrocarbon amount S2 and the total organic carbon content and the maximum pyrolysis peak temperature Tmax, determine the organic matter type parameter corresponding to the shale oil reservoir. The organic matter type parameter indicates the kerogen type corresponding to the shale oil reservoir. According to the organic matter type parameter, the maximum pyrolysis peak temperature Tmax, and the preset kerogen hydrocarbon generation conversion rate chart, determine the target hydrocarbon generation conversion rate corresponding to the shale oil reservoir. The preset kerogen hydrocarbon generation conversion rate chart describes the mapping relationship between the maximum pyrolysis peak temperature Tmax corresponding to different kerogen types and the hydrocarbon generation conversion rate. According to the pyrolysis and total organic carbon parameters and the target hydrocarbon generation conversion rate, calculate the original hydrocarbon generation potential index corresponding to the shale oil reservoir.
[0042] In a specific embodiment, the classification of kerogen types is usually carried out according to the ratio between the pyrolytic cracking hydrocarbon amount S2 and the total organic carbon content TOC. Please refer to Figure 2 , Figure 2 shows the hydrocarbon generation conversion rate charts of different types of kerogens provided in the embodiments of the present application. As Figure 2 shown, the kerogen types include type I kerogen, type kerogen, type kerogen, and type III kerogen. In the chart, the abscissa represents the maximum pyrolysis peak temperature Tmax, with the unit of degree Celsius (°C), and the ordinate represents the hydrocarbon generation conversion rate , each curve in the plate depicts the mapping relationship between the maximum pyrolysis peak temperature Tmax of the corresponding type and the hydrocarbon generation conversion rate between, based on Figure 2 , after determining the kerogen type corresponding to the shale oil reservoir according to the ratio between the pyrolysis hydrocarbon amount S2 and the total organic carbon content TOC in this application, by looking up Figure 2 the corresponding curve shown in the plate and combining the maximum pyrolysis peak temperature Tmax, the target hydrocarbon generation conversion rate corresponding to the shale oil reservoir can be determined . Further, by combining the target hydrocarbon generation conversion rate , the original hydrocarbon generation potential index corresponding to the shale oil reservoir can be determined.
[0043] In a specific embodiment, the original hydrocarbon generation potential index corresponding to the shale oil reservoir is calculated in the following manner:
[0044] Calculate the first ratio between the pyrolysis hydrocarbon amount and the total organic carbon content, calculate the difference between 1 and the target hydrocarbon generation conversion rate, and determine the second ratio between the first ratio and the difference as the original hydrocarbon generation potential index corresponding to the shale oil reservoir.
[0045] In an example, the original hydrocarbon generation potential index corresponding to the shale oil reservoir is determined by the following formula .
[0046]
[0047] Preferably, the genetic types of crude oil accumulation include the retention type, in-source migration type, and micro-migration type.
[0048] In a preferred embodiment, the genetic type of crude oil accumulation corresponding to the shale oil reservoir is determined by the following formula:
[0049] Calculate the second difference between the current hydrocarbon generation potential index and the original hydrocarbon generation potential index. If it is determined that the second difference is greater than zero, it is determined that the genetic type of crude oil accumulation corresponding to the shale oil reservoir is the in-source migration type. If it is determined that the second difference is less than zero, shale samples in the shale oil reservoir are selected for fluorescence thin section and laser confocal analysis. According to the analysis results, the crude oil storage space and the organic matter enrichment location in the shale oil reservoir are determined. According to the crude oil storage space and the organic matter enrichment location in the shale oil reservoir, it is determined that the genetic type of crude oil accumulation corresponding to the shale oil reservoir is the retention type or the micro-migration type.
[0050] In a specific embodiment, calculate the second difference between the current hydrocarbon generation potential index and the original hydrocarbon generation potential index corresponding to the shale oil reservoir , according to determine whether there is macroscopic migration in the shale oil reservoir corresponding to the shale oil reservoir. When When >0, it is determined that there is macroscopic migration in the shale reservoir, and the genetic type of crude oil accumulation corresponding to the shale oil reservoir is determined to be in-source migration type. When <0, it is determined that There is basically no macroscopic migration, and the genetic type of crude oil accumulation corresponding to the shale oil reservoir is determined to be in-situ retention or micro-migration accumulation.
[0051] If it is determined that there is no macroscopic migration in the shale oil reservoir, then shale samples are selected for fluorescence thin section and laser confocal analysis to determine the crude oil storage space and the location of organic matter enrichment in the shale oil reservoir. According to the crude oil storage space and the location of organic matter enrichment, the vertical microscopic migration distance of hydrocarbon molecules is determined. Combining the distance interval where the vertical microscopic migration distance of hydrocarbon molecules is located, further determine whether the genetic type of crude oil accumulation corresponding to the shale oil reservoir is retention type or micro-migration type.
[0052] In a specific embodiment, based on fluorescence thin section and laser confocal analysis, the location of organic matter enrichment in the shale oil reservoir is determined, and then the vertical distance of the location of organic matter enrichment relative to the crude oil storage space is further calculated, and this vertical distance is determined as the vertical microscopic migration distance of hydrocarbon molecules.
[0053] In a preferred embodiment, the genetic type of crude oil accumulation corresponding to the shale oil reservoir is also determined by the following method:
[0054] If the vertical microscopic migration distance of hydrocarbon molecules is in the first distance interval, it is determined that the genetic type of crude oil accumulation corresponding to the shale oil reservoir is retention type. If it is determined that the vertical microscopic migration distance of hydrocarbon molecules is in the second distance interval, it is determined that the genetic type of crude oil accumulation corresponding to the shale oil reservoir is micro-migration type.
[0055] Specifically, the vertical microscopic migration distance of hydrocarbon molecules ranges from the nanometer level to the meter level, and the upper limit value of the first distance interval is less than the lower limit value of the second distance interval.
[0056] In step S200, the microscopic analysis of the laser confocal method performed in step S100 can be combined to obtain the crude oil storage space corresponding to the shale oil reservoir.
[0057] In step S300, the geological data includes at least reservoir lithology, mineral composition elements, and sedimentary structures. The reservoir types include matrix type, bedding type, laminar type, and interlayer type.
[0058] In a preferred embodiment, step S300 includes:

[0060] If the reservoir lithology is shale, the mineral composition elements are clay minerals, quartz, and feldspar, and the content of clay minerals is higher than the upper limit of the preset clay mineral content, the main enrichment area of crude oil is the bedding fissures, and the sedimentary structure shows the development of book-like bedding, then it is determined that the shale oil reservoir is a bedding type reservoir.
[0061] If the reservoir lithology is laminated shale, the types of mineral composition elements exceed the preset quantity, the content of clay minerals is lower than the lower limit of the preset clay mineral content, the content of carbonate minerals exceeds the preset carbonate mineral content threshold, the main enrichment area of crude oil is the pores of the coarse clastic laminae, and the sedimentary structure indicates the interbedded development of clayey laminae and quartzofeldspathic laminae or carbonate laminae, then it is determined that the shale oil reservoir is a laminated type reservoir.
[0062] If the reservoir lithology is sandstone or carbonate thin layer within the shale oil reservoir series, and the main enrichment area of crude oil is the pores of the sandstone or carbonate interlayer, then it is determined that the shale oil reservoir is an interlayer type reservoir.
[0063] In this application, the upper limit of the preset clay mineral content can be 40%.
[0064] In a preferred embodiment, step S400 includes:
[0065] If the reservoir type corresponding to the shale oil reservoir is a matrix type reservoir or a bedding type reservoir, and the genetic type of crude oil accumulation is a retention type, then it is determined that the shale oil reservoir type corresponding to the shale oil reservoir is an in-situ retention type shale oil reservoir.
[0066] If the reservoir type corresponding to the shale oil reservoir is a laminated type reservoir, and the genetic type of crude oil accumulation is a micro-migration type, then it is determined that the shale oil reservoir type corresponding to the shale oil reservoir is a micro-migration laminated enrichment type shale oil reservoir.
[0067] If the reservoir type corresponding to the shale oil reservoir is an interlayer type reservoir, and the genetic type of crude oil accumulation is an in-source migration type, then it is determined that the shale oil reservoir type corresponding to the shale oil reservoir is an in-source migration interlayer enrichment type shale oil reservoir.
[0068] Please refer to Figure 3 , Figure 3 which shows a shale oil reservoir type discrimination chart provided by an embodiment of this application. As Figure 3In the shale oil reservoir type discrimination chart shown, the abscissa represents the vertical microscopic migration distance of hydrocarbon molecules. Different intervals of the vertical microscopic migration distance of hydrocarbon molecules correspond to different genetic types of crude oil accumulation. The first distance interval corresponds to the retention type, the second distance interval corresponds to the micro-migration type, and the third distance interval corresponds to the in-source migration type. The ordinate represents the sedimentary structure thickness corresponding to the shale oil reservoir. Different intervals of sedimentary structure thickness correspond to different reservoir types. The sedimentary structure thickness intervals corresponding to the matrix type reservoir and the bedding type reservoir are 0 to 1 mm (millimeter), the sedimentary structure thickness interval corresponding to the laminar type reservoir is 1 mm to 1 dm (decimeter), and the sedimentary structure thickness interval corresponding to the interlayer type reservoir is 1 dm to 5 m (meter). In this application, through the above method of this application combined with Figure 3 the shown shale oil reservoir type discrimination chart, the shale oil reservoir type can be further determined.
