[0002] The calculation of hydrocarbon saturation in oil and gas reservoirs has long been achieved based on geophysical logging data. In related technologies, the Archie formula is usually used to calculate the fluid saturation of a reservoir. However, in the practice of oil and gas exploration and development, there are perceptible errors in the reservoir fluid saturation calculated by the Archie formula, especially in the case of low resistivity oil and gas reservoirs and high resistivity water layers, where the errors are obvious.

[0003] From the perspective of the resistivity measurement mechanism and the establishment mechanism of the Archie formula, the calculation deviation stems from the appropriateness of grasping the Archie parameters a, b, m, and n.

The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present application, rather than all of the embodiments.

[0045] The calculation of hydrocarbon saturation in oil and gas reservoirs has long been achieved based on geophysical logging data. Geophysical logging is the process of using various instruments to measure the physical parameters of underground rock formations and the technical conditions of wells during oil exploration and production, analyzing the recorded data, and conducting geological and engineering research. According to the physical basis of logging methods, there are mainly electrical logging, radioactive logging, acoustic logging, and formation dip logging, etc. In oil and gas field logging, logging data are mainly used for stratigraphic correlation, dividing oil, gas, and water layers; determining important parameters such as the porosity, oil saturation, and permeability of reservoir rocks; during the development process of oil and gas fields, studying the dynamics of oil, gas, and water and the conditions of wells, providing a basis for formulating development plans; using logging, geological, geophysical exploration, and development data to conduct comprehensive research on regional geology and reservoir description.

[0046] In the interpretation and processing of logging data, first, lithologic logging data are used to calculate the lithologic profile, obtain the shale content of the reservoir, or the volume content of other minerals, and establish the lithologic profile for logging interpretation. Secondly, based on porosity logging data and combined with data such as shale content, the porosity of the reservoir is calculated. Then, based on resistivity logging data, the Archie's formula is used to calculate the oil saturation of the reservoir.

[0047] Archie's formulas are laws regarding sandstone resistivity published by GE. Archie, a petroleum logging engineer from Shell Company in the United States in 1942. Its practical expression is:

[0048]

[0049] In the formula: a - lithology coefficient related to lithology; b - constant related to lithology; m - cementation exponent; n - saturation exponent; Rw - formation water resistivity, Ω·m; Rt - formation resistivity, Ω·m; Φ - porosity, v / v; S w — reservoir water saturation, v / v; Based on logging parameters,

[0050] The hydrocarbon saturation of the reservoir calculated using Archie's formula is: S o = 1 - S w

[0051] In the formula: S o — reservoir hydrocarbon saturation, v / v

[0052] The establishment of Archie's formula has a reliable physical basis. After 80 years of application practice, the practical value of this formula in calculating the fluid saturation of reservoirs has been verified. It is an undeniable fact that in the practice of oil and gas exploration and development, there are perceptible errors in the fluid saturation of reservoirs calculated using Archie's formula, especially in the case of low resistivity oil and gas reservoirs and high resistivity water layers, where the errors are obvious.

[0053] From the perspective of the resistivity measurement mechanism and the establishment mechanism of the Archie formula, the calculation deviation stems from whether the Archie parameters a, b, m, and n are appropriately grasped. Therefore, the difficulty in accurately calculating using the Archie formula lies in obtaining the Archie parameters of the target formation accurately. This requires a large amount of high-cost rock electricity experimental data, which is almost impossible to achieve for oil and gas exploration companies with a wide construction area. This is also a problem encountered in well logging data interpretation technology for nearly a century.

[0054] Natural gas can form reservoirs independently or coexist with crude oil. Most oil reservoirs of different properties are associated with natural gas with different characteristics, also known as associated gas.

[0055] The oil and gas detection methods in mud logging technology are an extended application of reservoir geochemistry analysis technology at the drilling construction site, and are the most timely and direct means for discovering and evaluating oil and gas reservoirs in oil and gas exploration and development.

[0056] Gas logging is a logging technology that obtains the gas carried by the drilling fluid returning from the bottom of the well, detects and records its components and total hydrocarbon content through chromatographic analysis, so as to judge the oil and gas layers, and provides basic data for the discovery and evaluation of oil and gas layers. It is one of the main means for discovering oil and gas layers.

[0057] The gas logging parameters mainly include: continuously recorded and automatically detected total hydrocarbon (TG) while drilling, hydrocarbon components (C1 (methane), C2 (ethane), C3 (propane), iC4 (isobutane), nC4 (n-butane), iC5 (isopentane) and nC5 (n-pentane)), non-hydrocarbon components (H2S (hydrogen sulfide), CO2 (carbon dioxide)), etc. logging data.

[0058] The intuitive parameter reflecting the content of associated gas is the total hydrocarbon value in the gas logging data. The net gas increment can reflect the actual gas-bearing situation of the reservoir and can be used for further calculation.

[0059] In order to quantitatively reflect the oil and gas-bearing situation of the formation, technical personnel use gas standardization calculation and try to obtain the quantitative parameter reflecting the oil and gas-bearing situation of the formation, the ground gas content, through calibration methods.

[0060] The ground gas content is the volume of gas released per unit volume of rock drilled under ground conditions. The change in the gas volume of breaking unit volume of rock reflects the change in the relative porosity of the rock and the change in the gas saturation in the rock.

[0061] The theoretical basis of the ground gas content interpretation method is: it is assumed that the natural gas value of the known display section is directly related to the broken rock volume of this display section. When drilling through two completely identical reservoirs, due to differences in drilling speed, drilling fluid displacement, and bit diameter (excluding uncontrollable factors), there will be significant differences in hydrocarbon shows. The key to the formation gas content chart interpretation method is to standardize the hydrocarbon shows, eliminate the influence of factors such as drilling time, bit, and drilling fluid displacement, and calculate the formation gas content. Therefore, through continuous calculation, the changes in gas content at different depths in the same well can be compared, and oil, gas, and water layers can be judged.

[0062] Through theoretical calculation, the gas content in the drilling fluid detected by surface instruments is converted into the ground gas content of the rock, providing a quantitative parameter for judging reservoir properties. The NTC calculation derivation comes from the "Field Technical Specification for Exploration and Production Engineering Supervision of PetroChina Company Limited - Geological Supervision Sub - volume" compiled by PetroChina Company Limited. After considering unit conversion:

[0063]

[0064] In the formula: TC - the sum of the concentrations of each component, % or 10 -6 ; Q - the outlet displacement of the drilling fluid, m 3 / min; ROP - drilling time, min / m; d - the outer diameter of the bit, mm; k - the correction value of the degassing efficiency of the degasser, and currently the degassing efficiency can reach 0.75; NTC - under surface conditions, the gas volume content per unit volume of rock, with the same unit as TC.

[0065] NTC is the theoretical ground gas content calculated by eliminating common influencing factors through gas detection values, and is also called the Gas Normalization value. When using TG instead of TC for calculation, the calculation result is called NTG. Since the calculation formulas of NTC and NTG contain ROP, in tight formation sections, a high ROP leads to a high NTC (NTG) value, and this value is not caused by the formation hydrocarbon content at this time. Therefore, constraints need to be placed on the use of NTC (NTG). Practice has proved that NTC (NTG) can solve the problem of quantitative calculation to a certain extent, but there are still many unsatisfactory situations in its application.

[0066] For gas normalization calculation, in 2017, Zhang Guodong published a paper titled "Discriminating the Gas - bearing Property of Low - Porosity and Low - Permeability Reservoirs by the Full - Quantity Forward Calculation Method of Gas Logging" based on the working mechanism of a quantitative degasser, reaching a new height. The gas normalization calculation formula given in the paper is:

[0067]

[0068] Where: r - wellbore radius, m; v0 - penetration rate, m / min; t - drilling time, min; Φ - rock porosity, %; Sg - gas saturation of crushed rock, %; Punderground - pore pressure of the drilled formation, Pa; Tunderground - temperature of the drilled formation, K, which can be obtained based on the geothermal gradient; Psurface - surface atmospheric pressure, Pa; Tsurface drilling fluid - temperature of the drilling fluid in the degassing tank, 343.15 K; Fflow - drilling fluid flow rate, m3 / min; 300 - volume of drilling fluid obtained per degassing, 300 cm3; 500 - flow rate of the degassing pipeline, 500 cm3 / min; Tg calculated - concentration of hydrocarbons in the sample gas pipeline, %; By equating Tg calculated with the total hydrocarbon value of gas logging, the gas saturation value of the reservoir can be obtained:

[0069]

[0070] There is no problem with the logical deduction of this calculation formula. The problem is that the penetration rate v0 used in it is an engineering construction parameter, and t is the drilling time. Although they are quantitatively expressed parameters, their essence is still qualitative parameters affected by construction factors and not real rock physical parameters; mixing with gas physical parameters and rock physical parameters such as temperature, pressure, and porosity that are not affected by engineering factors leads to distortion of the final calculation result.

[0071] What reflects the characteristics of the oil and gas reservoir is the ratio of gas components, and many effective methods have emerged in production practice. For oil and gas reservoirs with different crude oil properties, the associated gas component ratios such as the Pick's ratio, triangular plot index, comprehensive gas index, etc. have different characteristics. Conversely, through the characteristics of the gas component ratio, the characteristics of the underground oil and gas reservoir can be inferred to judge dry gas, wet gas, light oil, medium oil, heavy oil, etc. The characteristics of the oil and gas reservoir can be quantitatively expressed by the gas component ratio. For oil and gas reservoirs with different crude oil properties, their gas-oil ratios vary greatly, and the characteristics of the oil and gas reservoir can be reflected through the gas-oil ratio data. The gas-oil ratio (GOR) is one of the important characteristic parameters of the oil and gas reservoir, and its value can be calculated and obtained through an empirical equation based on gas logging data and regional oil and gas well test production data. Other oil and gas reservoir parameters such as natural gas relative density, crude oil density, viscosity, etc. can be quantitatively calculated through a series of logical inferences and data regression processing. In the exploration and evaluation stage of the oil and gas reservoir, the characteristic parameters of the associated gas of the oil and gas reservoir can be calculated based on gas logging data and corrected through oil and gas well test and production data, which has practical application value and lays a foundation for the quantitative calculation and evaluation of the oil and gas content of the reservoir.

[0072] The present invention relates to the technical field of oil and gas exploration and development data processing, and particularly relates to using gas logging data and porosity logging data, and based on oil and gas reservoir characteristic parameters and the well sections with oil and gas shows distribution, adopting computer processing technology to obtain the oil and gas saturation of the oil and gas reservoir.

[0073] To solve some of the problems existing in the prior art, please refer to Figure 1 , which is a schematic flow chart of a method for determining the hydrocarbon saturation of a reservoir provided by an embodiment of the present application, and specifically may include:

[0074] S110. Obtain gas logging data and log porosity data;

[0075] Exemplarily, the oil and gas show data detected by gas logging originates from the actual hydrocarbon content of the reservoir, and has a good corresponding relationship with the hydrocarbon saturation of the reservoir. Based on the calculation of hydrocarbon saturation data based on the physical characteristics of the oil reservoir, the calculation of liquid hydrocarbon saturation and gaseous hydrocarbon saturation can be realized. While realizing the calculation of hydrocarbon saturation, accurate judgments can be made on the type of natural gas and the quality of the oil.

[0076] Log porosity is an important concept in geology and petroleum engineering, which describes the proportion of voids or pores in rocks or reservoirs. Porosity is usually expressed as a percentage, indicating the percentage of voids in the rock or reservoir in the total volume.

[0077] S120. Based on the above gas logging data, obtain the natural gas volume and gas-oil ratio data under surface conditions, where the above gas-oil volume ratio data includes gas volume coefficient, crude oil volume coefficient, gas-oil ratio, and gas-oil ratio when the formation pressure is the bubble point pressure, and the above reservoir hydrocarbon saturation includes at least one of gas saturation, oil saturation, and total hydrocarbon saturation;

[0078] Exemplarily, according to the basic principle of gas temperature and pressure calculation, the natural gas from the reservoir returns to the surface with the drilling fluid. Before entering the chromatographic column, there are three temperature and pressure environments: formation environment, wellhead degasser environment, and sample gas pipeline environment, and their temperature, pressure, and volume satisfy specific gas equations. Based on the gas detection and analysis data, the temperature and pressure conditions of the sample gas, surface, and outlet drilling fluid, the natural gas volume under surface conditions can be deduced. Among them, the above gas-oil volume ratio data includes gas volume coefficient, crude oil volume coefficient, gas-oil ratio, and gas-oil ratio when the formation pressure is the bubble point pressure, and the above reservoir hydrocarbon saturation includes at least one of gas saturation, oil saturation, and total hydrocarbon saturation

[0079] S130. Obtain the saturated state of the oil and gas reservoir according to the formation pressure and the bubble point pressure of the oil reservoir, where the above saturated state of the oil and gas reservoir includes a single-phase state of liquid hydrocarbon, a single-phase state of gaseous hydrocarbon, and a miscible state of oil and gas;

[0080] Exemplarily, the saturation states of the oil and gas reservoir include the single-phase state of liquid hydrocarbons, the single-phase state of gaseous hydrocarbons, and the miscible state of oil and gas. The single-phase state of liquid hydrocarbons means that the gas phase is completely dissolved in the liquid phase, the single-phase state of gaseous hydrocarbons means that the liquid phase is completely dissolved in the gas phase, and the miscible state of oil and gas is a mixed state of the gas phase and the liquid phase. When the formation pressure is greater than the bubble point pressure of the above-mentioned oil reservoir, the saturation state of the above-mentioned oil and gas reservoir is the above-mentioned single-phase state of liquid hydrocarbons or the above-mentioned single-phase state of gaseous hydrocarbons; when the above-mentioned formation pressure is less than the bubble point pressure of the above-mentioned oil reservoir, the saturation state of the above-mentioned oil and gas reservoir is the above-mentioned miscible state of oil and gas.

[0081] S140. Obtain the hydrocarbon saturation of the reservoir based on the above-mentioned saturation state of the oil and gas reservoir, the volume of natural gas under the above-mentioned surface conditions, the above-mentioned log porosity data, and the gas-oil volume ratio data.

[0082] Exemplarily, after calculating the volume of natural gas under surface conditions, select the corresponding calculation formula to calculate the hydrocarbon saturation of the reservoir according to different saturation states of the oil and gas reservoir. The calculation formula is related to the volume of natural gas, porosity data, and gasoline volume ratio data. Among them, the gas-oil volume ratio data includes the gas volume factor, the crude oil volume factor, the gas-oil ratio, and the gas-oil ratio when the formation pressure is the bubble point pressure. The above-mentioned hydrocarbon saturation of the reservoir includes at least one of the gas saturation, the oil saturation, and the total hydrocarbon saturation.

[0083] In summary, the method for determining the hydrocarbon saturation of the reservoir proposed in this application creatively uses the calculation data of the oil reservoir physical oil and gas reservoir characteristic parameters obtained based on gas logging data, combines the porosity of the reservoir calculated by geophysical logging methods, and calculates the hydrocarbon saturation data of the reservoir. The oil and gas show data detected by gas logging comes from the true hydrocarbon content of the reservoir, and has a good corresponding relationship with the hydrocarbon saturation of the reservoir. Based on the calculated hydrocarbon saturation data of the oil reservoir physical oil and gas reservoir characteristic parameters, the calculation of the liquid hydrocarbon saturation and the gaseous hydrocarbon saturation can be realized. While realizing the calculation of the hydrocarbon saturation, the type of natural gas and the oil quality can be accurately judged. Using the method adopted in this application, the formation factors affecting the resistivity will not have a decisive impact on the gas show. The hydrocarbon saturation calculated based on gas logging data is closer to the true hydrocarbon situation of the formation. Comparing the hydrocarbon saturation calculated from gas logging data with the log hydrocarbon saturation can identify low-resistivity oil layers and high-resistivity water layers, and overall improve the identification coincidence rate of oil and gas layers. Based on the oil reservoir physical principle, this application comprehensively uses logging and logging data, and through oil reservoir physical and rock physical calculation methods, realizes the data calculation of liquid hydrocarbon saturation and gaseous hydrocarbon saturation under formation conditions, meeting the technical requirements for reservoir interpretation in the process of oil and gas exploration and development.

The application conditions are in the range of 0.2 ≤ P pr ≤ 15 and 1.05 ≤ T pr ≤ 3.0. Currently, the commonly used calculation models of natural gas deviation factors are all obtained by fitting the above curves. Only the methods used are different, resulting in different application conditions and calculation accuracies.

[0164] Professor Li Xiangfang re-optimized the curve fitting method and simultaneously fitted the natural gas deviation factor in the full temperature and full pressure ranges, establishing a high-precision analytical calculation model for natural gas deviation factors. The natural gas deviation factor can be calculated with reference to the analytical calculation model of natural gas deviation factors after Professor Li Xiangfang re-optimized the curve fitting method.

[0263] In one embodiment, the calculation method of the present invention creatively uses the calculation data of the physical characteristics of oil and gas reservoirs in the oil layer, based on the net gas increment data of gas logging data, and cooperates with the reservoir log porosity data calculated by geophysical logging methods to calculate and obtain the gas saturation, oil saturation and total oil and gas saturation of the oil and gas reservoir. The quantity distribution of pore fluids can be displayed in the form of numerical tables and curves, providing a basic method for fine interpretation of reservoir fluid properties.

[0264] Calculations of logging-logging oil and gas saturation were carried out on sandstone oil and gas reservoirs in the Chad exploration area of Africa. The schematic diagram of the results is as Figure 3 shown. Through calculation, the oil and gas saturation of the reservoir, as well as the volume values of liquid oil, gaseous hydrocarbons and water in the pores of the reservoir, POR o 、POR g and POR w were obtained. On the cross-section, the occurrence states of oil, gas and water in the reservoir are intuitively displayed. In Figure 3 , the gas logging data include: C1 - methane, 10 -6 ; C2 - ethane, 10 -6 ; C3 - propane, 10 -6 ; iC4 - isobutane, 10 -6 ; nC4 - normal butane, 10 -6 ; iC5 - isopentane, 10 -6 ; nC5 - normal pentane, 10 -6 ; TG - total hydrocarbon, 10 -6 ; The logging parameters include: BS - bit size, mm; CAL - borehole diameter, mm; GR - natural gamma, API; SP - spontaneous potential, mV; RHOB - density logging, g / cm 3 ; NPHI - neutron logging, v / v; DT - acoustic travel time, μs / m; VSH - shale content, v / v; PHIE - porosity, v / v; ML_RESULT - logging interpretation conclusion; WL_RESULT - logging interpretation conclusion; TEST_RESULT - oil testing conclusion.

[0265] In carbonate reservoirs and sandstone reservoirs, the technical method of the present invention has been applied and has achieved good verification results. In the oil and gas field K13 in the Chad exploration area of Africa, good oil and gas shows were encountered in the sandstone reservoir. Based on the characteristics of gas logging data, the physical characteristics parameters of the reservoir oil layer were calculated, combined with the logging porosity data of geophysical logging, and the hydrocarbon saturation data was calculated. The calculation results are as Figure 4As shown in the figure. In Well K13, according to the logging data, the interval from 2001.30 m to 2009.38 m is interpreted as an oil layer based on the logging data, and as a gas layer based on the gas logging ratio characteristics. According to the physical characteristic parameters of the reservoir oil layer, the gas saturation and oil saturation are calculated respectively. Based on the calculation results, it is judged that the interval from 2001.30 m to 2009.38 m is mainly gas-bearing and contains less liquid hydrocarbons. In the subsequent well testing operation, after perforating the interval from 2001.30 m to 2009.38 m, a 32 / 64 in choke is used, and the natural gas production is 253070 m 3 / d, and the liquid oil is not measured. The well testing results are consistent with the conclusions obtained by using the calculation method of the present invention.
