[0100] Example 4
[0101] This embodiment includes a method for establishing a capacitance resistance-tracer model for a carbonate fracture-vuggy reservoir, comprising the following steps:
[0102] Step S 1 .Establish a capacitance-resistance model and a tracer seepage model respectively, wherein the tracer seepage model includes a tracer seepage model in a fracture channel and a tracer seepage model in a cave channel; then, the fracture-cavity reservoir is regarded as a form of fractures and caves in series, and a tracer seepage model in a fracture-cavity channel is established.
[0103] Specifically, the tracer injection process, the production process and the reservoir connection channel after injection are regarded as a whole system. The tracer injection process is the excitation part of the system, which is equivalent to the power supply excitation part in the circuit; and the tracer production process is the response part of the system, which is equivalent to the voltage across the capacitor C'. The seepage resistance encountered by the fluid in the formation during propagation and production is equivalent to the resistance in the circuit, and the storage capacity of the reservoir is equivalent to the role played by the capacitor in the circuit.
[0104] When the capacitor in a first-order capacitor-resistor series circuit is charged, the voltage in the circuit satisfies:
[0105] U S (t) = U C' (t)+U R' (t) (1)
[0106] In the above formula, U S (t) is the power supply excitation voltage, V; U C' (t) is the voltage across the capacitor, V; U R' (t) is the resistance divided voltage in the circuit, V; t is the time, s.
[0107] According to the relationship between charge, voltage and current in the circuit, we have:
[0108] ΔQ'=C'×ΔU (2)
[0109] ΔQ'=I C ×Δt (3)
[0110] In the above formula, C' is the capacitance; ΔQ' is the amount of charge that changes within Δt; ΔU is the voltage that changes within Δt, that is, the charging voltage; I C is the current corresponding to the capacitance in the circuit, and is also the current in the circuit.
[0111] According to the series circuit current relationship:
[0112]
[0113] The resistor voltage division with a resistance value of R' can be obtained:
[0114]
[0115] Substituting the resistor voltage divider formula into formula (4-1), we can get the voltage relationship in the circuit:
[0116]
[0117] Solve the first-order nonhomogeneous linear differential equation, the general solution formula is:
[0118]
[0119] y=Ce -∫P(x)dx +e -∫P(x)dx ∫Q(x)e ∫P(x)dx dx (8)
[0120] Let τ'=R'C', and we can get the relationship between the voltage across the capacitor and time during the circuit charging process:
[0121]
[0122] The τ' in the formula is defined as the time constant of the capacitor-resistance model, which causes a certain delay in the process of the voltage across the capacitor reaching the power supply excitation voltage during the charging process, and changes with time. The time constant is a key physical quantity that can measure the charging efficiency of the capacitor and reflect the hysteresis and attenuation of the charging process.
[0123] Further analogizing the charging process in the circuit to the oil and gas reservoir, the injection and return of the tracer into the reservoir has a certain delay and attenuation. The tracer injection process and the capacitor charging process in the circuit have certain similarities, as shown in Table 1 below. The capacitor resistance model applied to the reservoir can be derived by analogy with the circuit capacitor model, and there is also a corresponding relationship between the various physical quantities.
[0124] Table 1 Comparative analysis of tracer injection, flowback and circuit charging process
[0125]
[0126] The tracer seepage model in the fracture channel, that is, the analytical formula of the output concentration when the tracer is injected into the fracture, is:
[0127]
[0128] Where C is the tracer flowback concentration, C 0 is the initial concentration of the tracer at the inlet, D is the tracer diffusion coefficient, R is the tracer particle adsorption factor, t is the tracer migration time, L is the migration distance, k dep is the sedimentation coefficient of the tracer particles, and v is the flow rate of the tracer.
[0129] The tracer seepage model in the cave channel, that is, the output concentration model when the tracer is injected into the cave, is explained as follows:
[0130]
[0131]
[0132] It is difficult to solve equation (11) analytically, so a numerical solution method is needed to solve the model. Differentiating equation (11) yields:
[0133]
[0134] To simplify the calculation, let:
[0135]
[0136]
[0137]
[0138] P=-(Δr) 2 (17)
[0139] Substituting equations (13) to (15) into equation (12), we can write:
[0140]
[0141] In the formula, is the tracer concentration in the i-1th grid, is the tracer concentration in the ith grid, is the tracer concentration in the i+1th grid, is the tracer concentration of the ith grid in the previous time step, r i is the radial radius in the i-th grid, Q is the flow rate per unit thickness, and φ is the porosity. Δr and Δt are the radius step and time step, respectively, representing the radius and time that the injected tracer can just fill the formation.
[0142] Formula (18) can be written in matrix form and solved iteratively by programming:
[0143]
[0144] Considering the series connection of fractures and holes, when the tracer enters the first fracture, according to the tracer concentration output equation (10) obtained above, that is:
[0145]
[0146] Similarly, when the tracer passes through the first cave and enters the second fracture, due to the larger volume of the cave, the concentration at the entrance of the second fracture can be considered as the superposition of instantaneous point sources at each moment. The tracer is considered to be injected into the second fracture by continuous injection, so the concentration at any position in the j+1th fracture (j≥1) can be derived:
[0147]
[0148] Where: N is the total time step.
[0149] By combining the mathematical models of tracer seepage in fractures and caves, we can establish a mathematical model of tracer seepage in the case of multiple fractures and caves:
[0150]
[0151] Where CF 1 is the first crack on the channel, L 1 is the migration distance of the tracer when it passes through the first fracture; N is the total time step, k is the kth time step in the total time step N, Q is the flow rate per unit thickness, φ is the porosity, CFj is the jth crack on the channel, L j is the displacement distance of the tracer when it passes through the jth crack, CV j is the jth cave on the channel.
[0152] Step S 2 .The capacitance-resistance model is coupled with the tracer seepage model in the fracture channel and the tracer seepage model in the fracture-cavern channel respectively, the time constant τ of the capacitance-resistance-tracer model is clarified, and then the Peclet number and the connectivity coefficient f are introduced to establish the capacitance-resistance-tracer model. The capacitance-resistance-tracer model includes the capacitance-resistance-tracer model in the fracture channel and the capacitance-resistance-tracer model in the fracture-cavern channel.
[0153] Specifically, the tracer is injected into the reservoir along with the working fluid, and part of the working fluid will be retained in the formation. The connectivity coefficient f represents the ratio of the flowback fluid volume to the injected fluid volume.
[0154] The formula for calculating the return flow volume is: q(t) = J(p r -p wf ) (twenty three)
[0155] Where q(t) is the flowback volume corresponding to time t in the total flowback time when the tracer is injected, m 3 ; J is the liquid production index, m 3 / (d·MPa); p r is the formation pressure (the formation pressure tested when the well is shut in), MPa; p wf It is the bottom hole flowing pressure (read by the downhole permanent pressure gauge or converted by the wellhead oil pressure), MPa.
[0156] From the above formula, we can get:
[0157] Combined with the liquid production index and based on the material balance principle, the model that characterizes the tracer injection and production process is:
[0158]
[0159] Among them, C t is the comprehensive compression coefficient of the formation, MPa -1 ; V p is the controlled pore volume of a single well, m 3 ; i(t) is the injection volume of the injection well corresponding to time t, m 3 ; q(t) is the return flow volume corresponding to time t, m 3 ; t is the tracer migration time.
[0160] The voltage relationship in the analog circuit, equation (6), defines the time constant in the tracer model as:
[0161]
[0162] Among them, C t is the comprehensive compression coefficient of the formation, MPa -1 ; V p is the controlled pore volume of a single well, m 3 ; J is the liquid production index.
[0163] Substituting formula (26) into formula (25), we can obtain:
[0164]
[0165] Solving the first-order nonhomogeneous linear differential equation, the expression of the flowback volume during the tracer monitoring process is:
[0166]
[0167] Where q(t) represents the flowback volume at time t during the tracer monitoring process; q(t 0 ) represents the initial time t 0 The corresponding return fluid volume; τ is the time constant of the capacitance resistance-tracer model; t 0 represents the initial time of tracer migration; t is the tracer migration time.
[0168] A new parameter specially introduced to describe the law of solute migration is the Peclet number, which reflects the relationship between the longitudinal diffusion coefficient of the solute and the molecular diffusion coefficient during the seepage process. The larger the Peclet number, the greater the flow rate. Its mathematical expression is as follows:
[0169]
[0170] Where v is the average flow velocity (L / T); L is the characteristic length of the porous medium, which here refers to the migration distance (T); and D is the hydrodynamic dispersion coefficient (L2 / T).
[0171] The following dimensionless quantities are defined, and the connectivity factor f and the time constant τ of the capacitor-resistance-tracer model are introduced:
[0172]
[0173]
[0174]
[0175] According to the above formula, the capacitance resistance-tracer model in the crack channel can be obtained by non-dimensionalizing formula (10):
[0176]
[0177] The capacitance-resistance-tracer model in the fracture-cavity channel is:
[0178]
[0179] Where, CF j is the jth crack on the channel; CV j is the jth cave on the channel.
[0180] Step S 3 In order to accurately evaluate the connectivity of carbonate fracture-vuggy reservoirs and quantify the fracture-vuggy structure of the connected channels, and improve the reliability of reservoir connectivity judgment, it is necessary to couple the capacitance-resistance model with the tracer seepage model to form a capacitance-resistance-tracer model, construct the objective function, and invert and solve the parameters in the capacitance-resistance model and the capacitance-resistance-tracer model. The objective function is as follows:
[0181]
[0182] In the formula, q jcal (t) is the calculated liquid production of production well j at time t, q jobs (t) is the measured liquid production of production well j at time t, C ijcal (t) is the tracer concentration value calculated at time t for production well j, C ijobs (t) is the tracer concentration value measured at production well j at time t, t n is the total number of time steps.
[0183] Since the objective function needs to be solved by programming to obtain the unknown parameters in the two-part model, including both the reservoir connectivity evaluation parameters obtained by the capacitance and resistance model part and the fracture-cavity structure parameters obtained by the capacitance and resistance-tracer model part, the programming calculation is large and the data is complicated, so the particle swarm algorithm is selected as the solution method for the objective function.
[0184] Assuming that the dimension of the search space is D, the position and velocity of the i-th particle in the particle swarm at the t-th iteration can be expressed as and The historical optimal position (individual optimal value) of each particle in the iteration process is recorded as The historical optimal position of the entire particle swarm is recorded as So the velocity and position of the particle in the t+1th iteration are updated as:
[0185]
[0186]
[0187] In the formula, c1 、c 2 is the learning factor, which is generally set to 2; r 1 、r 2 is a random number between (0, 1); ω is the inertia weight.
[0188] The inertia weight ω is a parameter introduced to balance the local search and global search capabilities. The larger the ω, the stronger the global search capability and the weaker the local search capability. The commonly used inertia weight reduction strategy is to set the initial value of ω to a larger value, and then gradually reduce it so that the particle swarm switches from global search to local search, and then the global optimal solution is more accurate. The expression of ω is:
[0189]
[0190] In the formula, ω max is the maximum value of inertia weight; ω min is the minimum inertia weight; t is the current iteration number; t max is the maximum number of iterations.
[0191] The main calculation steps of the particle swarm optimization algorithm are:
[0192] (1) Initialization: Set the particle swarm size, maximum number of iterations, initial position, and initial velocity.
[0193] (2) Calculate the initial fitness value of each particle and set it to p i . Select the optimal fitness value of the group and set it to p g .
[0194] (3) Update the speed and position of each particle.
[0195] (4) Calculate the current fitness value of each particle after the update and compare it with p i Compare, if the current fitness value is better, replace p i and save it.
[0196] (5) Compare the optimal fitness value of each particle with p g In comparison, if the current fitness value of a particle is better, then replace p g and save it.
[0197] (6) If the search result meets the stopping condition (reaching the maximum number of iterations or meeting the accuracy requirement), the search is terminated and the optimal value is output; otherwise, return to step (3) to continue searching.

[0199] This embodiment is a further detailed supplement and elaboration of the technical solution of the present invention on the basis of any one of the above embodiments 1 to 4.
[0200] In order to explore the applicability of the capacitor-resistance-tracer model, this embodiment also includes using an indoor flow physics simulation experiment to verify the accuracy of the capacitor-resistance-tracer model. The capacitor-resistance-tracer model includes a capacitor-resistance-tracer model in a fracture channel and a capacitor-resistance-tracer model in a fracture-cavern channel.
[0201] Specifically, the indoor flow physics simulation experiment includes:
[0202] Typical fracture-cavity structure numerical characterization and visualization model preparation. Specifically, it includes the following steps:
[0203] 1) Based on the thin sections of real rock samples, core experiments such as CT scanning are used to analyze the rock skeleton and pore channels, and the corresponding pore network model is extracted and established through relevant software;
[0204] 2) Through laser etching technology, a typical fracture-cavity structure visualization model is prepared, including a fracture model, a cave model, and a fracture-cavity model. The visualization model is as shown in the attached manual. Figures 4 to 6 shown.
[0205] The tracer flow simulation experiment device was used to complete the tracer flow simulation experiment in the fracture model, cave model and fracture-cavity model.
[0206] Among them, refer to the instructions attached Figure 7 The tracer flow simulation experimental device includes a tracer storage 1, a water storage 2, a peristaltic pump 4, a control switch valve 3, a visualization model 5, a sampling bottle 6 and corresponding connecting pipes. The tracer storage 1 is used to store tracer solution, and the water storage 2 is used to store water.
[0207] The experiment was carried out at room temperature and pressure (20°C, 0.1 MPa), and the simulated water was pure water (ρ = 1 g / cm 3 ); the tracer is water-soluble granular fluorescent powder. Other experimental equipment include: beaker, glass rod, electronic scale, measuring cylinder, stopwatch, hose, hose connector, plug, etc.
[0208] The tracer flow simulation experiment was carried out according to the following steps:
[0209] 1) Prepare a tracer solution with a concentration of 1.33 mg / mL;
[0210] 2) Connect the tracer flow simulation experimental device;
[0211] 3) Use the constant flow peristaltic pump 4 to inject water into the visualization model 5 until the space of the visualization model 5 is full;
[0212] 4) Obtain a tracer-free sample of the blank control group at the outlet;
[0213] 5) injecting a tracer solution from the injection well position on the visualization model 5;
[0214] 6) injecting water into the visualization model 5 at a constant speed, and taking samples at intervals at the corresponding outlet ends, and the amount of liquid taken by each sampling bottle 6 is controlled to be about 2 mL;
[0215] 7) Use a spectrophotometer to test the absorbance change of each sample solution, calculate the tracer concentration in each sample, and draw a curve of the tracer output concentration change over time.
[0216] The relationship between the absorbance A of a substance to monochromatic light and the solution concentration C" of the absorbing substance and the thickness of the liquid layer l can be described by the Lambert-Beer law: when a beam of parallel monochromatic light passes through a dilute solution containing an absorbing substance, the absorbance of the solution is proportional to the product of the concentration of the absorbing substance and the thickness of the liquid layer, that is:
[0217] A=kC”l (1)
[0218] In the above formula, k is a proportional constant, which is related to factors such as the light-absorbing substance and the intensity of the incident light:
[0219] k=2.303φI 0 εb (2)
[0220] Where φ is the quantum efficiency of fluorescence, a dimensionless quantity; I 0 is the incident light intensity; ε is the absorption coefficient, L / (mg·cm); b is the liquid layer thickness, cm.
[0221] The specific concentration of tracer solution prepared by the fluorescent tracer used in this experiment is measured, and its absorbance is measured to draw a standard curve. The tracer concentration of the sample can be inversely calculated using this linear equation and the absorbance of the solution obtained by the test.
[0222] A tracer flow experiment under different fracture-cavity structures was designed and carried out. The tracer production curve characteristics under different types of fracture-cavity structure combinations were close to the model prediction results, which can verify the accuracy of the model.

The time constant results obtained by partial fitting of the capacitance-resistance model (hereinafter referred to as CRM) are shown in Table 2 below, and the summary table of partial fitting parameters of the capacitance-resistance-tracer model is shown in Table 3 below. The model curve fitting determination coefficient is shown in Table 4, and the comparison chart of the tracer concentration curve of each experimental group is shown in the attached manual.

[0231] The determination coefficient of the capacitance resistance-tracer model is generally higher than that of the tracer seepage model, and the fitting effect is better. The fracture length and cave size obtained by fitting in the tracer concentration fitting parameter table (Table 2) are compared with the actual size of the structure in the physical model. As shown in Table 5 below, the error rate of the capacitance resistance-tracer model fitting parameter results is lower than that of the tracer seepage model, which is more in line with reality.
