Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative work fall within the scope of protection of the present application.

[0048] Embodiment one

[0049] The present embodiment provides a shale oil and gas fracturing difficulty evaluation method, Figure 1 The flow chart of the shale oil and gas fracturing difficulty evaluation method provided by the present embodiment is shown in Figure 1 The method disclosed by the present embodiment comprises the following steps:

[0050] Step 110, determining equivalent proppant and determining proppant conversion sand volume according to the equivalent proppant and preset fracturing construction data.

[0051] As an example, the preset fracturing construction data comprises:

[0052] The sand volume of the proppant, the bulk density of the proppant, the average value of the proppant particle size, the liquid volume of the fracturing fluid, the fracturing construction pressure, the fracturing sand ratio, and the fracturing fluid viscosity.

[0053] Optionally, the preset fracturing construction data collected can comprise proppant experimental evaluation results, fracturing construction pressure, fracturing sand ratio, fracturing fluid viscosity, and fracturing fluid proppant parameters.

[0054] As an example, when determining the equivalent proppant, the following processing mode can be adopted:

[0055] Considering that shale gas fracturing usually adopts 70 / 140 mesh, 40 / 70 mesh, 30 / 50 mesh, and 20 / 40 mesh proppants for pumping construction at present, considering that the single sand volume cannot reflect the process difficulty difference due to the different types of proppants entering the formation, the bulk density and particle size of the proppant are comprehensively considered, and the use amount of the equivalent 40 / 70 mesh low-density ceramic proppant is recommended.

[0056] As an example, the proppant conversion sand volume is determined by the following formula:

[0057]

[0058] wherein, is the conversion sand volume of the first type of proppant; i is the sand volume of the first type of proppant; is the bulk density of the first type of proppant; i is the conversion sand volume of the second type of proppant; is the sand volume of the second type of proppant; i is the bulk density of the second type of proppant; is the bulk density of the equivalent proppant; is the average particle size of the i-th type proppant; is the average value of equivalent proppant particle size.

[0059] Step 120: Determine the converted volume of the fracturing fluid according to the preset equivalent viscosity and the preset fracturing construction data.

[0060] Alternatively, considering that shale gas well fracturing currently typically uses glue and slick water for fracturing construction, it is recommended to uniformly use the viscosity as the equivalent of clean water, that is, the preset equivalent viscosity can be the viscosity of clean water.

[0061] As an example, the converted volume of the fracturing fluid is determined by the following formula:

[0062]

[0063] in, For the i Converted fluid volume of similar fracturing fluid; For the i The volume of fracturing fluid; For the i Viscosity of fracturing fluid; is the preset equivalent viscosity.

[0064] Step 130: Determine the total sand volume converted from all types of proppants and the total liquid volume converted from all types of fracturing fluids, and determine the sand carrying efficiency based on the total sand volume converted from the proppants and the total liquid volume converted from the fracturing fluids.

[0065] As an example, determining the sand carrying efficiency according to the proppant converted sand volume and the fracturing fluid converted liquid volume includes:

[0066] Determine the total converted sand volume based on the converted sand volume of each type of proppant;

[0067] Determine the total converted fluid volume based on the converted fracturing fluid volume of each type of fracturing fluid;

[0068] The sand carrying efficiency is determined according to the total converted sand volume and the total converted liquid volume.

[0069] Step 140: Determine the construction pressure window according to preset fracturing construction data.

[0070] As an example, the step of determining the construction pressure window includes:

[0071] Determine the wellhead pressure corresponding to the cumulative sand injection volume at the bottom of the well according to the preset fracturing operation data, and determine the average operation pressure according to the wellhead pressure at different times;

[0072] The operation pressure window is determined according to a preset wellhead pressure limit and the average operation pressure.

[0073] Step 150: Normalize the sand carrying efficiency and construction pressure window of each section respectively to obtain the corresponding normalized results of the sand carrying efficiency and the normalized results of the construction pressure window.

[0074] Step 160: Determine a fracturing difficulty index for evaluating fracturing difficulty based on the normalized result of the sand carrying efficiency and the normalized result of the construction pressure window.

[0075] As an example, the fracturing difficulty index is determined by the following formula:

[0076]

[0077] in, FI is the fracturing difficulty index, is the normalized result of sand carrying efficiency, is the normalized result of the construction pressure window.

[0078] Example 2

[0079] Based on the first embodiment, this embodiment further explains and illustrates the shale oil and gas fracturing difficulty evaluation method disclosed in the first embodiment in an illustrative manner.

[0080] As another example, the proppant-converted sand amount is determined by the following formula:

[0081]

[0082] in, For the i Equivalent sand volume of proppant-like material, unit is m 3 ; For the i The amount of sand as proppant, in m 3 ; For the i Bulk density of the proppant, in kg / m 3 ; is the volume density of low-density ceramsite, in kg / m 3 , the recommended value is 1650kg / m 3 ; is the average particle size of the i-th type proppant, in μm; It is the average particle size of 40 / 70 mesh proppant, in μm, and the recommended value is 340 μm.

[0083] It should be noted that, according to actual needs, the equivalent proppant may also be determined as proppant of other particle sizes or types.

[0084] As another example, the preset equivalent viscosity is unified as the viscosity of clear water, and the converted fluid volume of the fracturing fluid is determined by the following formula:

[0085]

[0086] wherein, is the converted fluid volume of the fracturing fluid of the first type, in m 3 ; i is the fluid volume of the fracturing fluid of the first type, in m 3 ; is the viscosity of the fracturing fluid of the first type, in mPa·s; i is the viscosity of the fracturing fluid of the first type, in mPa·s; i is the viscosity of clear water, in mPa·s, and generally its value can be taken as 1.

[0087] It should be noted that, according to actual needs, the preset equivalent viscosity can also be unified as the viscosity of slickwater or other types of fracturing fluids.

[0088] As an example, in step 130, the converted total sand volume of the proppant, the converted total fluid volume of the fracturing fluid, and the sand-carrying efficiency can be determined by the following ways:

[0089]

[0090] In the formula, is the converted total fluid volume of the fracturing fluid, in m 3 ; n is the number of types of the fracturing fluid;

[0091]

[0092] In the formula, is the converted total sand volume of the proppant, in m 3 ; n is the number of types of the proppant;

[0093] Further, the converted total sand volume carried by the converted total fluid volume per unit volume is used to represent the sand-carrying efficiency of the fracturing fluid in this section, i.e.:

[0094]

[0095] In the formula, R is the sand-carrying efficiency, dimensionless.

[0096] ​​As an example, in step 140, according to the construction experience, when the sand enters the formation, if the jointing is difficult, the joint width is narrow, the sanding is difficult, and the construction pressure is easy to increase, the complex situation of narrow construction pressure window is prone to occur. In view of this, the average construction pressure window of the sand entering the formation is used to represent the fracturing difficulty. Considering that the current field construction record data are mainly the data of wellhead proppant sand ratio and liquid injection amount, the following processing is needed for these data:

[0097]

[0098] In the formula, is the construction pressure when the well bottom cumulative sanding amount is , and the unit is MPa; is the wellhead cumulative liquid injection amount when the wellhead cumulative sanding amount is , and the unit is m 3 ; is the wellbore volume, and the unit is m 3 ; is the construction pressure when the wellhead cumulative liquid amount is , and the unit is MPa.

[0099] Further, according to the wellhead pressure when the sand-carrying liquid enters the formation at different times, the average construction pressure during the sanding period is calculated by the following formula:

[0100]

[0101] In the formula, is the average construction pressure during the sanding period, and the unit is MPa; is the wellhead pressure at time t i , and the unit is MPa; is the construction pressure recording interval time, and the unit is second; is the cumulative time length of the sand entering the formation, and the unit is second. t Finally, in combination with the preset wellhead pressure limit (which can be the surface equipment pressure limit), the construction pressure window is calculated by the following formula:

[0102]

[0103]

[0104] In the formula, is the construction pressure window, and the unit is MPa; is the surface equipment pressure limit, and the unit is MPa.

[0105] As an example, in step 150, when a single well is taken as the analysis object, the sand-carrying efficiency of each section and the construction pressure window when the sand enters the formation need to be normalized, and specifically: ​

[0106]

[0107]

[0108] In the formula, R i is the normalized result of the sand-carrying efficiency, dimensionless; i is the normalized result of the sand-carrying efficiency, dimensionless; is the normalized result of the sand-carrying efficiency, dimensionless; is the normalized result of the sand-carrying efficiency, dimensionless; is the normalized result of the sand-carrying efficiency, dimensionless; i is the normalized result of the sand-carrying efficiency, dimensionless;

[0109] As an example, finally in step 160, according to the normalized result of the sand-carrying efficiency and the normalized result of the construction pressure window, the fracturing difficulty index is determined, specifically:

[0110]

[0111] In the formula, FI is the fracturing difficulty index, dimensionless.

[0112] In addition, in order to facilitate the understanding of the technical scheme of the present application, reference can also be made to Figure 2 .

[0113] In summary, the embodiment discloses a shale oil and gas fracturing difficulty evaluation method, which comprehensively considers the influences of construction pressure, fracturing material parameters, and comprehensive sand-liquid ratio and the like, and provides an effective technical means for post-fracturing analysis and fracturing geological environment factor evaluation.

[0116] Specifically, the vertical depth of the shale gas well in the southwestern Sichuan region is 3931.00 m, and the measured depth is 5560.00 m. The fracturing difficulty index is determined according to the following processing flow:

[0117] (1) Determine the sand-carrying efficiency:

[0118] The well uses three kinds of fluids, i.e., low-viscosity slickwater, high-viscosity slickwater, and gel, wherein the low-viscosity slickwater is 3 mPa·s, the high-viscosity slickwater is 15 mPa·s, and the gel is 60 mPa·s. The converted fluid volume is shown in Table 1.

[0129] The well is limited to 112 MPa, and the calculation results of the construction pressure window of the sand into the formation are shown in Table 4.

[0130] Table 4 Calculation of construction pressure window

[0131]

[0132] (3) Determine the fracturing difficulty index:

[0133] After the normalization processing of the sand-carrying efficiency and the construction pressure window, the fracturing difficulty index is further determined according to the normalization processing results.

[0134] The calculation results of the fracturing difficulty index can be referred to Table 5.
