Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of coalbed methane reservoir development technology, specifically to a method and apparatus for evaluating the production ratio of different gases in deep coalbed methane reservoirs. Background Technology

[0002] As an important unconventional resource, target coalbed methane reservoirs can alleviate energy shortages, reduce coal mine safety accidents, and reduce environmental pressure, attracting widespread attention globally. In recent years, target coalbed methane reservoirs have developed rapidly, with several reservoir blocks achieving high-yield breakthroughs. This is because the gas types in target coalbed methane reservoirs include not only adsorbed gas but also abundant free gas and a certain amount of dissolved gas. Studying the proportion of different gas types in target coalbed methane reservoirs has significant theoretical and practical implications for reservoir reserve evaluation and geological sweet spot prediction.

[0003] Currently, there are many methods for assessing the proportion of different gas types in a target coalbed methane reservoir (i.e., its reserve proportion), but few methods for assessing the production proportion of different gas types in the same reservoir. Only a few studies have established evaluation methods for the adsorbed gas / free gas ratio in gas wells based on carbon isotope fractionation models. However, these methods require the installation of carbon isotope monitoring devices at the wellhead, limiting their application and failing to consider the proportion of dissolved gas production. Therefore, methods for evaluating the production proportion of different gas types in a target coalbed methane reservoir using only well production data are rarely reported. Summary of the Invention

[0060] like Figure 1 As shown in the embodiment of this application, a method for evaluating the proportion of different gas production in deep coalbed methane reservoirs is provided. The method for evaluating the proportion of different gas production in deep coalbed methane reservoirs includes the following steps:

[0063] Furthermore, the coal seam control volume V can be calculated using equation (1):

[0064] V = Ah = L H Lh (1)

[0065] In the formula, V is the controlled volume of the coal seam, 10 6 m 3 A represents the controlled area of ​​the target coalbed methane reservoir, in km². 2 h represents the thickness of the target coal seam, in meters; L H L represents the length of the horizontal section of the target coal seam, in km; L represents the distance between horizontal wells in the target coal seam, in km.

[0071] S70: Calculate the daily production ratio of the three gases in the target coalbed methane reservoir based on the daily production of free gas, adsorbed gas, and dissolved gas.

[0072] This patent, based on the material balance principle of deep coalbed methane reservoirs, considers the pressure difference between adsorbed and free gas pores, the impact of fracturing on coal reservoir properties, and the influence of dissolved gas. It calculates the cumulative production of free gas, adsorbed gas, and dissolved gas in the target coalbed methane reservoir, and then calculates the daily production of free gas, adsorbed gas, and dissolved gas based on these figures, thereby obtaining the production ratio of the three gases. This application proposes a method for evaluating the production ratio of adsorbed gas, free gas, and dissolved gas in deep coalbed methane reservoirs. It only requires known coal reservoir properties, fluid properties, and dynamic production data of the coalbed methane wells to calculate the daily production ratio of different types of gases in deep coalbed methane reservoirs in real time, providing a reference for the dynamic analysis of gas well production.

[0073] In this embodiment of the application, the step of calculating the coal seam porosity and water saturation at the initial production stage of the target coal seam after fracturing and flowback, based on the physical property parameters of the target coal seam, includes:

[0074] Obtain the total fracturing fluid volume and the cumulative flowback volume during the flowback process of the target coal seam;

[0075] Calculate the net injection volume of fracturing fluid based on the volume of fracturing fluid and the cumulative flowback volume;

[0076] The coal seam porosity at the beginning of production after fracturing and flowback is calculated based on the coal seam control volume, net fracturing injection volume, original porosity of the target coal seam, and water volume coefficient.

[0077] The water saturation of the coal seam is calculated based on the controlled volume of the coal seam, the original porosity of the target coal seam, the original water saturation, the net injection volume of fracturing, the volume coefficient of water, and the porosity of the target coal seam at the beginning of production after fracturing and flowback.

[0078] In this embodiment, the adsorbed gas from the target coalbed methane is mainly stored in the micropores (pore size less than 2 nm) of the coal matrix, while free gas, dissolved gas, and water are stored in cleavage fractures (pore size greater than 1000 nm), macropores (pore size between 50 nm and 1000 nm), and mesopores (pore size between 2 nm and 50 nm). The original coal seam pressure p i In reality, this represents the original pressure of the fluid within the coal seam's cleavage fractures, macropores, and mesopores; it is the original pressure of the free pores. While the matrix micropores do not contain an aqueous phase, the micropores themselves do. Therefore, capillary pressure exists between the matrix micropores and mesopores, calculated using the following formula:

[0079]

[0080] In the formula, p c D is the capillary pressure between the micropores and mesopores of the coal seam, in MPa. a D represents the average pore size of the coal matrix micropores, in nm. f σ represents the average pore size of the coal matrix mesopores, in nm; gw θ represents the interfacial tension between air and water, in mN / m; θ represents the wetting angle of the coal matrix surface, in °.

[0081] Given the original coal seam pressure p i The initial pressure p of the adsorbed gas in the adsorption pores of the coal seam can be calculated using the following formula. mi :

[0082] p mi =p i +p c (3)

[0083] In formula (3), p mi The initial pressure of the adsorbed gas in the adsorption pores of the coal seam is given in MPa; p i The original coal seam pressure is given in MPa; p c This represents the capillary pressure between the micropores and mesopores of the coal seam, in MPa.

[0084] The total fracturing fluid volume W during the target coal seam fracturing process is statistically analyzed. fi And the cumulative amount of wastewater discharged during the discharge process, W fp The net injection volume W for fracturing is calculated using the following formula. fin :

[0085] W fin =W fi -W fp (4)

[0086] In formula (4), W fin This is the net injection volume for fracturing, 10 6 m 3 W fiThe total fracturing fluid volume during the target coal seam fracturing process is 10. 6 m 3 W fp This represents the cumulative amount of wastewater discharged during the discharge process, 10 6 m 3 .

[0087] The value of the coal seam control volume V and the original porosity φ of the coal seam are used. i Net injection volume W for fracturing fin The volume coefficient of water, B w Substituting into formula (5), calculate the coal seam porosity φ of the target coalbed methane reservoir at the beginning of production after fracturing and flowback. ip :

[0088]

[0089] In formula (5), φ ip This refers to the coal seam porosity at the initial stage of production after fracturing and flowback of the target coalbed methane reservoir; φ i W represents the original porosity of the coal seam. fin This is the net injection volume for fracturing, 10 6 m 3 B w Let m be the volume index of water. 3 / m 3 V represents the control volume of the coal seam, 10 6 m 3 .

[0090] The value of the coal seam control volume V and the original porosity φ of the coal seam are used. i Original water saturation of coal seam S wi Net injection volume W for fracturing fin The volume coefficient of water, B w The calculated coal seam porosity φ at the initial production stage of the target coalbed methane reservoir after fracturing and flowback. ip Substituting into formula (6), calculate the water saturation S of the coal seam at the initial stage of production of the target coalbed methane reservoir after fracturing and flowback. wip :

[0091]

[0092] In formula (6), S wip φ represents the water saturation of the coal seam at the initial stage of production after fracturing and flowback of the target coalbed methane reservoir; i S represents the original porosity of the coal seam. wi W represents the original water saturation of the coal seam. fin This is the net injection volume for fracturing, 10 6 m 3 B w Let m be the volume index of water. 3 / m3 V represents the control volume of the coal seam, 10 6 m 3 ;φ ip This represents the porosity of the coal seam at the initial stage of production after fracturing and flowback of the target coalbed methane reservoir.

[0093] In this embodiment of the application, the step of calculating the daily average coal seam pressure value of the target coal seam based on the original reserves of adsorbed gas, original reserves of free gas, original reserves of dissolved gas, daily cumulative gas production, cumulative water production, cumulative water intrusion, coal seam porosity at the beginning of production after fracturing and flowback, coal seam water saturation, and physical property parameters includes:

[0094] The material balance equation of adsorbed gas in adsorption pores is established based on the principle of material balance in adsorption gas desorption.

[0095] The material balance equation for free gas and dissolved gas in free pores is established based on the principle of material balance between free gas and dissolved gas.

[0096] The material balance equation for the target coalbed methane reservoir is established based on the material balance equations for adsorbed gas, free gas, and dissolved gas.

[0097] The original reserves of adsorbed gas, free gas, and dissolved gas in the target coalbed methane reservoir, the cumulative gas production, cumulative water production, cumulative water intrusion, the porosity of the coal seam at the beginning of production after fracturing and flowback, the water saturation of the coal seam, and the physical property parameters are substituted into the material balance equation. The average coal seam pressure value is calculated using one of the following methods: Newton's iteration method, secant method, or cubic function method.

[0098] In this embodiment, based on the principle of adsorbed gas desorption mass balance, the cumulative amount of adsorbed gas desorbed from the adsorbed pores to the free pores in the target coalbed gas reservoir is equal to the original state adsorbed gas reserves minus the current state remaining adsorbed gas reserves. Therefore, the mass balance equation for adsorbed gas in the adsorbed pores is established as follows:

[0099]

[0100] In the formula, G pa The cumulative amount of adsorbed gas desorbed from the adsorbed pores to the free pores in the target coalbed methane reservoir is called the cumulative production of adsorbed gas. 6 m 3 ;ρ c The density of coal and rock is t / m³. 3 V L For the Langmuir volume, m 3 / t;p L Langmuir pressure, MPa; p c The capillary pressure between the micropores and mesopores of the coal seam, in MPa; pi ρ is the original coal seam pressure, MPa; p is the average coal seam pressure, MPa.

[0101] During the production process of the target coal seam, gas wells extract coalbed methane from free pores, while adsorbed pores supply desorbed gas to the free pores. Therefore, for the free pores of the target coal seam, the cumulative gas production from gas wells is an outflow, while the cumulative desorption from adsorbed pores is a supply. The net cumulative gas production of the free pores of the target coal seam (cumulative gas production from gas wells minus cumulative desorption from adsorbed pores) equals the sum of the original reserves of free gas and dissolved gas in the free pores minus the current reserves of free gas and dissolved gas in the free pores. Therefore, the material balance equation for free gas and dissolved gas in the free pores of the target coal seam gas reservoir is established as follows:

[0102]

[0103] In the formula, G p The cumulative gas production of the target coalbed methane reservoir, 10 6 m 3 W p The cumulative water production of the target coalbed methane reservoir, 10 6 m 3 W e The cumulative water intrusion during the production process, 10 6 m 3 ;φ ip S represents the coal seam porosity at the initial stage of production after fracturing and flowback of the target coalbed methane reservoir; wip p represents the water saturation of the coal seam at the initial stage of production after fracturing and flowback of the target coalbed methane reservoir. sc The pressure under standard conditions is expressed in MPa, with a value of 0.101325; T sc The temperature under standard conditions is K, with a value of 293.15; Z sc p is the deviation coefficient for natural gas under standard conditions, dimensionless, and has a value of 1. i The original coal seam pressure is given by: T (MPa); T (K) is given by: Z (K). i Z is the deviation coefficient of gas under the original coal seam pressure, dimensionless; p is the average coal storage pressure, MPa; Z is the deviation coefficient of gas under the average coal seam pressure, dimensionless; C p The pore volume compressibility coefficient is given in MPa. -1 C w The isothermal compressibility coefficient of water is given in MPa. -1 C s The solubility coefficient of coalbed methane in water, in MPa -1 B w Let m be the volume index of water. 3 / m 3 C a is the coal matrix shrinkage coefficient, which is dimensionless.

[0104] Adding equations (7) and (8), we obtain the target coalbed methane reservoir material balance equation considering the pressure difference between adsorbed pores and free pores and the influence of fracturing fluid, as shown in equation (9):

[0105]

[0106] In this embodiment, the cumulative daily gas production G of the target coal seam is... p Cumulative water production W p Cumulative water intrusion W e (Usually taken as 0, unless the aquifer is accidentally breached during fracturing, and water from the aquifer gradually intrudes into the coal seam as fluid is extracted during the mining process.) Coal seam porosity φ at the beginning of production of the target coalbed gas reservoir after fracturing and flowback. ip The water saturation S of the coal seam at the initial stage of production after fracturing and flowback of the target coalbed methane reservoir. wip Substituting the physical properties of the target coal seam into formula (9), the average daily coal seam pressure can be calculated using the Newton-Raphson iteration method or the secant method. In the solution process, the Dranchuk-Abou-Kassem method is applied, based on the relative density γ of natural gas. g Given the reservoir temperature T, calculate the average gas deviation coefficient Z under any formation pressure.

[0107] Since both Newton's iterative method and the secant method are implicit solution methods, they require complex iterative loops and thus necessitate the assistance of computer programs. To simplify the calculation, a convenient explicit method for calculating the average reservoir pressure is proposed.

[0108] The expressions for the original reserves of adsorbed gas, free gas, and dissolved gas in formula (9) are respectively represented by G. ai G fi and G si This means, that is:

[0109]

[0110] Substituting formula (11) into formula (9) yields:

[0111]

[0112] Multiply both sides of formula (12) by (p) L +p c +p), and rearranged into a cubic equation for the average coal seam pressure p, we get:

[0113] p 3 +bp 2 +cp+d=0 (13)

[0114] In the formula, the expression for the coefficient b is:

[0115]

[0116] In the formula, the expression for the coefficient c is:

[0117]

[0118] In the formula, the expression for the coefficient d is:

[0119]

[0120] Rearrange formula (13) to y 3 If the form is +C1y+C2=0, then y, C1, and C2 are respectively:

[0121]

[0122] Equation y 3 One of the real solutions to +C1y+C2=0 is:

[0123]

[0124] The average daily coal seam pressure p of the target coal seam can then be obtained through the conversion formula (17), i.e., formula (21):

[0125]

[0126] When calculating coefficients b, c, and d, the value of V can be given directly, or formula (1) can be used for calculation; G ai G fi and G si The value of Z can be given directly based on prior knowledge, or it can be calculated using formula (11); the value of Z can be determined by first taking Z. i The value is used as the initial value. When the new average coal seam pressure p is calculated, the new Z is calculated using formula (10). Then, the new Z is used to replace the Z in the previous step. The calculation of p is repeated until the relative error between the two calculations of p satisfies 1×10. -6 When the time is up, exit the loop and use the last calculated value of p as the final value of the average coal seam pressure p.

[0127] In this embodiment, the cumulative free gas production in the target coalbed methane reservoir is calculated using the following formula:

[0128]

[0129] Among them, G pf The cumulative daily free gas production of the target coalbed methane reservoir, 10 6 m3 .

[0130] In this embodiment, the cumulative dissolved gas production in the target coalbed methane reservoir is calculated using the following formula:

[0131]

[0132] Among them, G ps The cumulative daily dissolved gas production of the target coalbed methane reservoir, 10 6 m 3 ; .

[0133] In this embodiment, the cumulative production of adsorbed gas in the target coalbed methane reservoir is calculated using the following formula:

[0136] In some implementations, if the cumulative free gas production on a given day is greater than the cumulative free gas production on the previous day, the daily free gas production on that day is equal to the cumulative free gas production on that day minus the cumulative free gas production on the previous day; if the cumulative free gas production on a given day is less than or equal to the cumulative free gas production on the previous day, then the daily free gas production on that day is zero. Therefore, the daily free gas production in the target coalbed methane reservoir is calculated using the following formula (24):

[0137]

[0138] Where, q pf,j Let m be the daily free gas production of the target coalbed methane reservoir on day j. 3 / d;G pf,j The cumulative free gas production of the target coalbed methane reservoir on that day (day j), 10 6 m 3 G pf,j-1 The cumulative free gas production of the target coalbed methane reservoir on the previous day (day j-1), 106 m 3 .

[0139] In some implementations, if the cumulative free gas production on a given day is greater than the cumulative free gas production on the previous day, the daily adsorbed gas production on that day is equal to the cumulative adsorbed gas production on that day minus the cumulative adsorbed gas production on the previous day; if the cumulative free gas production on a given day is less than or equal to the cumulative free gas production on the previous day, then the daily adsorbed gas production on that day is equal to the cumulative adsorbed gas production on that day minus the cumulative adsorbed gas production on the previous day plus the cumulative free gas production on that day minus the cumulative free gas production on the previous day. Therefore, the daily adsorbed gas production can be calculated using the following formula (25):

[0140]

[0141] Where, q pa,j Let m be the daily adsorbed gas production of the target coalbed methane reservoir on day j. 3 / d;G pa,j The cumulative adsorbed gas production of the target coalbed methane reservoir on the current day (day j), 10 6 m 3 G pa,j-1 The cumulative adsorbed gas production of the target coalbed methane reservoir on the previous day (day j-1), 10 6 m 3 ;

[0142] Furthermore, by subtracting the cumulative dissolved gas production of the previous day from the cumulative dissolved gas production of the current day, the daily dissolved gas production can be calculated. Therefore, the daily dissolved gas production is calculated using the following formula (26):

[0143]

[0144] Where, q ps,j Let m be the daily dissolved gas production of the target coalbed methane reservoir on day j. 3 / d;G ps,j The cumulative dissolved gas production of the target coalbed methane reservoir on the current day (day j), 10 6 m 3 G ps,j-1 The cumulative dissolved gas production of the target coalbed methane reservoir on the previous day (day j-1), 10 6 m 3 .

[0145] Furthermore, using formula (27), the proportion of daily free gas production f of the target coal seam on the day (day j) is calculated. qpf :

[0146]

[0147] In formula (27), f qpf,j This represents the percentage of free gas produced by a coalbed methane well on the current day (day j).

[0148] Formula (28) is used to calculate the percentage of daily adsorbed gas production f of the target coal seam on the day (day j). qpa :

[0152]

[0153] In the formula, f qps,j This represents the percentage of dissolved gas produced by the coalbed methane well on that day (day j).

[0154] Finally, to further illustrate the evaluation process of the method for evaluating the proportion of different gas production in coalbed methane reservoirs in this application, the following example of the gas production proportion evaluation process in a deep coal reservoir is used for illustration:

[0158] In the table above, the control volume V of the deep coalbed methane reservoir can be calculated using equation (1), where the thickness of the deep coal reservoir h = 10m and the length of the horizontal well section L of the deep coalbed methane reservoir are given. H =1.002km, and the horizontal well spacing L = 0.35km in the deep coalbed methane reservoir is substituted into formula (1) to obtain the control volume V = 3.507(10 6 m 3 ).

[0159] V = Ah = L H Lh=1.002×0.35×10=3.507(10 6 m 3 )

[0160] Furthermore, the capillary pressure between the matrix micropores and mesopores is calculated using formula (2), where the average pore diameter D of the coal matrix micropores is used. a=2nm, average pore size D of coal matrix mesopores f =10nm, gas-water interfacial tension σ gw Substituting 60 mN / m and the wetting angle θ = 90° on the coal matrix surface into formula (2), the capillary pressure p between the micropores and mesopores of the coal reservoir is obtained. c = 0.8377 (MPa).

[0161]

[0162] The original coal reservoir pressure p i =21MPa and capillary pressure p between micropores and mesopores in the coal reservoir c Substituting 0.8377 MPa into formula (3), the original pressure p of the adsorbed gas in the adsorption pores of the coal reservoir is calculated. mi =21.8377 (MPa).

[0163] p mi =p i +p c =21 + 0.8377 = 21.8377 (MPa)

[0165] W fin =W fi -W fp =0.03-0.0075=0.0225(10 6 m 3 )

[0166] The results are recorded in Table 2 below:

[0171] The control volume of the coalbed methane well is V = 3.507(10). 6 m 3 ), original porosity φ of coal reservoir i =0.07, original water saturation of coal reservoir S wi =0.60433, Net injection volume W for fracturing fin =0.0225(10 6 m 3 ), water volume factor B w =1 and the calculated coal reservoir porosity φ at the beginning of production after fracturing and flowback of the gas well. ip Substituting 0.07642 into formula (6), we can calculate the water saturation S of the coal reservoir at the beginning of production after fracturing and flowback of the gas well. wip =0.63755.

[0172]

[0173] Furthermore, applying the Dranchuk-Abou-Kassem method, based on the relative density γ of natural gas... g Given the reservoir temperature T, calculate the average gas deviation coefficient Z under any formation pressure, and fit it using a univariate quartic polynomial of pressure to determine the expression for Z:

[0174] Z = A4p 4 +A3p 3 +A2p 2 +A1p+A0

[0175] = -4.2357 × 10 -7 p 4 +2.3073×10 -5 p 3 +3.5607×10 -5 p 2 -1.2258×10 -2 p+1

[0176] Therefore, the fourth power coefficient of pressure is determined to be A4 = -4.2357 × 10⁴. -7 MPa -4 The cubic coefficient of pressure, A3, is 2.3073 × 10⁻⁶.-5 MPa -3 The pressure square coefficient A2 = 3.5607 × 10 -5 MPa -2 The first-order coefficient of pressure, A1, is -1.2258 × 10⁻⁶. -2 MPa -1 The constant term coefficient A0 = 1.

[0179] The above results show that the daily cumulative gas production G of deep coalbed methane reservoirs is... p and cumulative water production W p Curves Figure 2 As shown.

[0180] Taking the production data of a deep coalbed methane reservoir on day 100 as an example, the cumulative gas production G on day 100 is... p =6.942087(10 6 m 3 Cumulative water production W p =0.00582697(10 6 m 3 ), cumulative water intrusion W e =0, the porosity φ of the coal reservoir at the beginning of production after fracturing and flowback of the gas well. ip =0.07642, the water saturation of the coal reservoir at the beginning of production after fracturing and flowback of the gas well. wip Substituting 0.63755 and the physical properties of the deep coal reservoir in Table 1 into formulas (14), (15), and (16), the initial value of Z is set as Z. iThe value is 0.8895, from which we calculate:

[0181] The coefficient b is:

[0187] The values ​​of C1 and C2 are calculated using formulas (18) and (19) respectively:

[0188]

[0189] Using formula (20), the value of y is calculated:

[0190]

[0191] The average coal seam pressure p of a deep coalbed methane reservoir over 100 days is calculated using formula (21):

[0192]

[0193] Substituting the calculated average coal reservoir pressure p = 16.97308 (MPa) on the 100th day into formula (10), the new Z is calculated:

[0194] Z = A4p 4 +A3p 3 +A2p 2 +A1p+A0

[0195] = -4.2357 × 10 -7 p 4 +2.3073×10 -5 p 3 +3.5607×10 -5 p 2 -1.2258×10 -2 p+1

[0196] = -4.2357 × 10 -7 ×16.97308 4 +2.3073×10 -5 ×16.97308 3 +3.5607×10 -5 ×16.97308 2 -1.2258×10-2 ×16.97308+1

[0197] =0.87986839

[0198] Then, the calculated new Z replaces the Z from the previous step, and the calculation of p is repeated iteratively. It is found that after three iterations, the relative error between the two calculations of p satisfies 1 × 10⁻⁶. -6 At this point, exit the loop, and take the last calculated p = 16.89144 (MPa) as the final value of the average coal reservoir pressure p for the 100th day.
