Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of oilfield development, and in particular relates to a method for determining the lower limit of movable fluid utilization in a water-driven gas reservoir. Background Art
[0002] At present, most of my country's gas reservoirs are water-driven gas reservoirs to varying degrees, especially in the Sichuan Basin. Among the more than 500 gas reservoirs and gas-bearing structures discovered, water-driven gas reservoirs account for more than half, and the reserves account for more than 80% of the total natural gas reserves in the Sichuan Basin. Therefore, the development of water-driven gas reservoirs is crucial to the development of my country's natural gas industry.
[0003] The mobility of reserves is a key factor affecting whether water-driven gas reservoirs can achieve profitable development. Accurate evaluation of reserve mobility is of great significance for improving the recovery of water-driven gas reservoirs. The evaluation of reserve mobility includes the evaluation of the lower limit of movable pore size and the lower limit of movable properties (i.e., porosity and permeability). At present, the evaluation methods for the lower limit of movable pore diameter and movable physical limit can be mainly divided into static method and dynamic method, among which the static method includes mercury injection experiment, reservoir physical property parameters and irreducible water saturation method, etc. For example, Chinese patent with publication number CN116337705A discloses an experimental method for determining the lower limit of gas drive in conglomerate reservoirs. This method determines the lower limit of pore throat activation in the conglomerate reservoir during gas drive by changing the T2 spectrum curve before and after gas drive and combining the T2 cutoff value principle on the basis of obtaining the conversion relationship between the nuclear magnetic resonance T2 relaxation time and the pore throat radius; Chinese patent with publication number CN113945497A discloses a method for evaluating the mobility of reservoir fluid in oil and gas reservoirs. This method fully combines CT scanning, nuclear magnetic resonance and error analysis, and evaluates the mobility of reservoir fluid in oil and gas reservoirs and the activation characteristics of fluids in different pore throat spaces by changing the nuclear magnetic resonance cumulative curve before and after displacement on the basis of determining the optimal conversion coefficient between the nuclear magnetic resonance relaxation time and the pore throat radius. The dynamic method mainly includes the well logging data method and the production capacity simulation experiment method. The well logging data method mainly determines the lower limit of physical properties under the existing economic and technical conditions based on comprehensive comparative analysis of various dynamic and static data such as well logging, oil testing, reservoir physical property analysis, etc., combined with statistical principles and reservoir seepage mechanism; the production capacity simulation experiment method simulates the gas reservoir development process with the help of indoor experiments, determines the lower limit of reservoir physical properties through the change characteristics of recovery rate, and at the same time, with the assistance of nuclear magnetic resonance and CT scanning technology, the lower limit of movable aperture can be obtained.
[0004] However, these current methods have the following shortcomings:
[0005] (1) The nuclear magnetic resonance T2 cutoff value method is currently commonly used in static methods. However, a large number of indoor experiments have confirmed that the lower limit of the movable aperture determined by this method is not the true lower limit. The fluid smaller than this value still exhibits good mobility, and the lower limit determined by this method will be larger than the actual value.
[0006] (2) The theoretical calculation models of the movable pore diameter lower limit commonly used in the static method do not consider the influence of the bound water film thickness, which is inconsistent with the fluid storage characteristics of the actual gas reservoir, resulting in the calculation results being inconsistent with the actual values of the gas reservoir.
[0007] (3) The dynamic method for determining the lower limit of the movable aperture requires the use of a large amount of sample data and core test data, and its evaluation results are highly subjective. Summary of the invention
[0008] The purpose of the present invention is to address the shortcomings of the existing methods for determining the lower limit of production.

[0075] Example 2
[0076] like Figure 1 As shown, a method for determining the lower limit of movable fluid production in a water-driven gas reservoir comprises the following steps:
[0077] Step S1: Select a cylindrical core of a low-permeability reservoir with a length of 4-6 cm, wash the salt and dry it, and measure the dry weight m0 and porosity of the core. After determining the permeability k, the core was cut into two sections, the first section was 1-2 cm long and the second section was 3-4 cm long;
[0078] Step S2: According to the national standard GB / T 29171-2012 "Determination of rock capillary pressure curve", a high-pressure mercury injection experiment is performed on the first section of the core, and the pore throat radius of the rock sample is calculated according to the mercury injection curve of the rock sample, and the corresponding frequency distribution diagram is drawn (such as Figure 2 shown);
[0079] Step S3: Perform a vacuum pressurized saturated formation water experiment on the second core. First, vacuum the second core to 133Pa. After pressurizing the saturated formation water solution at 20MPa for 48 hours, measure the mass of the second core, record it as m1, and calculate the effective pore volume V of the second core. eff and effective porosity when and When the relative error between the two is less than 2%, the rock sample is saturated. Otherwise, re-saturate according to the above steps. At the same time, turn on the NMR instrument, set the parameters of the NMR instrument, and test the NMR T2 spectrum curve of the second section of the core saturated with water (such as Figure 3 shown);
[0080] Step S4, placing the rock sample completely saturated with water into a core holder, using natural gas to displace the rock sample to irreducible water saturation by means of gradient pressurization, and measuring the nuclear magnetic resonance T2 spectrum curve of the rock sample under irreducible water;
[0081] Step S5: After the irreducible water saturation of the rock sample is established, the confining pressure is increased to the overburden pressure by using a confining pressure pump, and the system temperature is raised to the formation temperature;
[0082] Step S6: After the system temperature is stable, turn on the constant pressure displacement pump, use the pressure balance valve to quickly balance the pressure at both ends of the upstream and downstream to the formation pressure, and stabilize it for more than 2 hours;
[0083] Step S7, close the pressure balance valve, increase the upstream pressure to the experimental pressure, and then carry out the water drive gas experiment. During the experiment, record the displacement time, the pressure difference between the two ends of the sample, the cumulative gas production at the outlet, the water breakthrough time, and the cumulative water production after water breakthrough. When the cumulative gas production no longer increases or the water production rate tends to be stable, inject 2PV of water and stop the experiment. At this time, the sample reaches the residual gas state, and measure the nuclear magnetic resonance T2 spectrum curve of the rock sample in the residual gas state (such as Figure 3 shown);
[0084] Step S8: Plot the pore throat distribution curve obtained by high pressure mercury injection and the nuclear magnetic resonance T2 spectrum curve under fully saturated water in the same coordinate system for scale comparison (e.g. Figure 4 The conversion relationship between the NMR T2 time and the pore throat radius is fitted using formula (1), so as to calculate the corresponding conversion coefficient, the bound water film thickness and the maximum pore throat radius r corresponding to the rock sample. max and minimum pore throat radius r min (As shown in Table 1):
