Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of oilfield development, and specifically is a hydraulic fracturing test device and method suitable for pressure drive technology. Background Technology
[0002] Entering the 21st century, low permeability oil reservoirs have become one of the most important areas of exploration and development. However, low permeability oil reservoirs are affected by factors such as reservoir properties and water quality. After a period of development, there are generally problems such as high water injection pressure and high under-injection ratio, which leads to the inability to establish effective displacement of oil and water wells and rapid decline in production capacity. Practical experience at home and abroad has shown that hydraulic fracturing is an irreplaceable technology for exploiting low permeability oil reservoirs at this stage. Since 2020, Shengli Oilfield has proposed a new technology for pressure drive technology, which uses low-viscosity clean water as fracturing fluid, and injects it at high pressure and high speed to increase reservoir pressure and improve seepage capacity in a relatively short period of time, thereby increasing oil well production capacity and reservoir recovery.
[0003] Pressure-driven technology uses clean water as the injection medium. The injection fluid has a high degree of filtration loss, which makes it easier to form microcracks, and requires higher observation accuracy for pressure-driven cracks. At present, conventional triaxial tests on rocks use hydraulic oil to apply equal lateral pressure to the specimen in the horizontal direction, which is difficult to simulate the actual stress conditions of the reservoir. The specimens used in true triaxial tests on rocks are usually large-sized cubic specimens. Whether using cores or outcrops to process rock specimens, they face difficulties in obtaining and processing. After the true triaxial hydraulic fracturing test of rocks is completed, the observation of cracks is mostly carried out by indirect means such as acoustic emission combined with core cutting, and the observation accuracy of cracks is low.
[0004] Therefore, developing a new test device and indoor physical simulation method suitable for pressure-driven technology is of great significance for deepening the understanding of pressure-driven mechanism and guiding the practice of oilfield pressure-driven mines. SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

[0096] The pressure drive simulation experiment completed by the rock true triaxial physical model test device in this example includes the following steps:
[0097] Step 1, sample preparation.
[0098] The experimental selection is a cubic artificial core specimen with side lengths of 300 mm × 300 mm × 300 mm. The raw materials for preparation are cement, water, sand, admixtures, etc. The experimental devices used are mixers, incubators, balances, molds, etc. After setting the mortar mix ratio, mortar preparation is carried out in the laboratory. Using a small mixer, first dry stir the mixture of cement and sand in the small mixer for a period of time, and then add water to the mixer for stirring. A water reducing agent is added during the stirring process. After the mortar is made, it is poured and formed in a steel mold. During pouring, pour according to the experimental design. Pour evenly, slowly, and steadily to prevent affecting the experimental results. When the mortar is injected to the designated position in the mold, add a steel pipe simulating the wellbore to the mold and then pour again. To prevent the wellbore from sinking during pouring, it needs to be fixed at the upper end. For the directionally perforated specimen, ensure that the plastic hose does not deform too much during pouring and ensure that the position of the pipe does not change; to prevent mortar from entering the plastic hose, wrap the simulated perforation with toilet paper moistened with water. For the open-hole specimen, after the mortar in the specimen has slightly solidified, pull out the plastic pipe in it to form an open-hole wellbore. Place the processed core in the mold and let it stand for about 7 days. After it is consolidated and formed, remove the mold and conduct constant temperature and humidity maintenance and strengthening for 21 days.
[0099] Step 2, pressure drive simulation experiment.
[0100] Adopt a true triaxial rock engineering physical model testing machine, a hydraulic fracturing pump servo control system, and acoustic emission three-dimensional space positioning technology. Use a straight wellbore and homogeneous rock sample #1, pour it using the cement stone ratio, with a rock permeability of 5 md and a rock elastic modulus of 20.18 GPa. First, conduct formation water injection, and then increase the displacement to conduct a fracturing physical simulation experiment. The construction displacement is 50 mL / min, the fracturing fluid viscosity is 2.5 mPa·s, and the three-way stress σV / σH / σh = 25 / 20 / 16 Mpa.
[0101] Step 3, experimental result analysis.
[0102] The pump injection pressure presents a stepped rising model, rising to 4 MPa in about 12 s, the pressure fluctuates continuously for about 8 s and then rapidly increases to 13 MPa and stabilizes, and the pressure increases sharply to the maximum pressure value of 22.1 MPa in about 45 s. The total pump injection time is 66.7 seconds. As Figure 4 shown, the observation after cutting the core after fracturing shows that two main fractures parallel to the maximum horizontal principal stress are formed after fracturing, and horizontal fractures appear locally.

Test the gas permeability of the rock specimen on the parallel sample of the flat rock specimen to be 105 mD.
[0107] Step 2, pressure-driven fracturing simulation.
[0108] Put the prepared rock specimen into the pressure-driven hydraulic fracturing test device, and set the initial pressures applied in the X, Y, and Z directions of the rock specimen to be 1 MPa, 1 MPa, and 10 MPa respectively. Pump potassium chloride solution with a density of 1.0142 g / cm 3 , a viscosity of 0.9987 mPa·s into the core holder, and set the injection speed to start from 1 ml / min and gradually increase the injection speed slowly. As Figure 5 shown, use a pressure sensor to record the pressure change during the injection process in real time until the pump pressure curve shows an obvious drop, indicating that the rock sample has cracked.
[0109] Step 3, track the fracture morphology.
[0110] Add silicone oil into the intermediate container, add an oil-soluble blue solvent into the silicone oil, and stir for 24 hours until the solvent is fully dissolved. Connect the intermediate container to the injection inlet section of the pressure-driven hydraulic fracturing experimental device, and slowly inject at an injection rate of 0.5 ml / min.

Pump a potassium chloride solution with a density of 1.0142 g / cm 3 , viscosity of 0.9987 mPa·s into the core holder, set the injection rate to start from 1 ml / min, and gradually and slowly increase the injection rate until a significant drop appears in the pump pressure curve. As Figure 6 shown, stop the pump after the pressure drops, inject water again after relieving the pressure, and observe the pressure change.
[0117] Step 3, track the fracture morphology.
[0118] Add silicone oil into the intermediate container, add an oil-soluble blue solvent into the silicone oil, and stir for 24 hours until the solvent is fully dissolved. Connect the intermediate container to the injection inlet section of the pressure-driven hydraulic fracturing experimental device, and slowly inject at an injection rate of 0.5 ml / min. Stop injecting when the injection pressure rises significantly.

[0122] Prepare a flat rock specimen with a length of 50 cm, a width of 50 cm, and a height of 4 cm on the outcrop rock sample. Use a diamond drill bit with an outer diameter of 6 mm to axially drill a blind hole with a depth of 2 cm at the center of one end face of the flat specimen. Test the gas permeability of the rock specimen on the parallel sample of the flat rock specimen, and the gas permeability is 78 mD.
[0123] Step 2, simulation of pressure-driven fracturing.
[0124] Place the prepared rock specimen into the pressure-driven hydraulic fracturing test device, and set the initial pressures applied in the X, Y, and Z directions of the rock sample to 1 MPa, 1 MPa, and 10 MPa respectively.

[0125] Step 3, track the fracture morphology.
[0126] Add silicone oil to the intermediate container, add an oil-soluble blue solvent to the silicone oil, and stir for 24 hours until the solvent is fully dissolved. Connect the intermediate container to the injection inlet section of the pressure-driven hydraulic fracturing experimental device and slowly inject it at an injection speed of 0.5 ml / min. When the injection pressure rises significantly, stop injecting.
