Description

[0002] In the fracturing operation of oil and gas fields, the evaluation of the conductivity of proppants is a key link in optimizing production capacity. For a long time, experimental studies have generally been based on an idealized uniform sand laying model, using mechanical leveling or single-sized sand bodies to simulate the distribution of proppants. Such simplified assumptions can lead to a deviation of 30%-50% between the conductivity data and the actual working conditions. Especially during the wellbore backflow process, when the proppants undergo secondary migration due to an asymmetric flow velocity field, the prediction error of traditional methods is more significant.
[0003] Currently, the commonly used experimental research devices include an experimental cavity filled with quartz sand as proppants, and the backflow is simulated by introducing water into the experimental cavity. The overall experimental device separates the proppant migration and conductivity into static, homogeneous, and single-scale research categories, with a low simulation authenticity, resulting in a reduction in the characterization accuracy.

Detailed implementation manners
[0032] Next, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all the embodiments.

[0033] The purpose of the present invention is to provide a device and method for quantitatively characterizing the diversion capacity under non-uniform sand laying conditions to solve the problems existing in the prior art. By laying unequal amounts of quartz sand in the sand laying area, a non-uniform sand laying condition is formed to simulate the real non-uniform sand body structure. At the same time, in cooperation with the holes simulating perforation, the simulation authenticity is improved, and the accuracy of the final characterization is improved.
[0034] To make the above objects, features, and advantages of the present invention more obvious and understandable, the present invention will be further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific implementation manners.
[0035] Please refer to as Figures 1 to 4 shown, a device for quantitatively characterizing the diversion capacity under non-uniform sand laying conditions is provided, including a liquid supply mechanism, a bearing plate 1, and a cover plate 2. The bearing plate 1 can be an iron bearing plate or a stainless steel bearing plate, etc. A groove 15 is opened on the bearing plate 1. The horizontal cross-section of the groove 15 is square or rectangular, etc. The cover plate 2 is hermetically covered at the notch of the groove 15. Inside the groove 15, a plurality of sand laying areas for laying unequal amounts of quartz sand are arranged in a grid pattern. The thicknesses of the quartz sand in the finally formed plurality of sand laying areas are all different; a plurality of holes 4 for simulating wellbore perforation are opened on the side wall of the bearing plate 1. A liquid inlet hole 3 is opened on the other side wall of the bearing plate 1. The liquid inlet hole 3 is communicated with the liquid supply mechanism. Both the liquid inlet hole 3 and the holes 4 are communicated with the groove 15. By laying unequal amounts of quartz sand in the sand laying area, a non-uniform sand laying condition is formed to truly simulate the non-uniform sand body structure formed in the actual reservoir due to fluid shear and pump start-stop impact. At the same time, in cooperation with the holes 4 simulating perforation, the simulation authenticity is improved, and the accuracy of the final characterization is improved.
[0036] The specific structure of the cover plate 2 is as follows: The cover plate 2 includes a base plate and a protrusion. The protrusion is matched with the groove 15 and is embedded in the groove 15. The edge of the base plate covers the edge of the bearing plate 1, and a gasket is provided between the two; or the cover plate 2 itself is matched with the groove 15, and a sealing ring is provided at the notch of the groove 15. After the cover plate 2 is embedded in the groove 15, the sealing ring is squeezed to achieve sealing; or the width of the cover plate 2 is designed to be matched with the groove 15, and the length is slightly shorter than the length of the groove 15. A tightening bolt 20 is threadedly connected to the side wall in the length direction of the bearing plate 1. The bolt extends into a horizontal strip-shaped hole 21 opened on the inner wall of the groove 15. A sealing strip 22 is provided in the horizontal strip-shaped hole 21. The sealing strip 22 has the same side length as the cover plate 2 in contact with it. By screwing the tightening bolt 20, the sealing strip 22 can be squeezed to contact the cover plate 2 for sealing. Sealing strips can also be provided between the other three sides of the cover plate 2 in contact with the sealing strip 22 and the inner wall surface of the groove 15; or other structures that can achieve the sealed connection between the cover plate 2 and the groove are adopted.
[0037] A handle can be provided on the cover plate 2 to facilitate lifting the cover plate 2.
[0038] In this embodiment, the horizontal cross-section of the groove 15 is designed to be square, and the cavity of the groove 15 is divided into a grid-like space of 10x10. Each grid is a sand-laying area; in other embodiments, grooves 15 of other shapes can also be selected, and their cavities are divided into grid-like spaces of different specifications.
[0039] The amount of sand in the sand-laying area near the hole 4 is greater than that in the sand-laying area far from the hole 4. Taking the sand-laying areas distributed in a grid pattern as an example, there are multiple columns of sand-laying areas distributed upward along the hole 4. The amount of sand in multiple sand-laying areas in each column decreases sequentially in the direction away from the hole 4, so as to simulate the sand body structure in the actual reservoir and improve the simulation authenticity.
[0040] The cover plate 2 can be designed as a transparent cover plate 2, which is made of transparent materials such as glass and acrylic, so that the experimental process can be visualized.
[0041] A camera 5 is provided above the cover plate 2. The camera 5 is connected to a computer 6. During the experiment, the camera 5 can take pictures of the inside of the groove 15 every few seconds and transmit them to the computer 6, which can effectively capture the redistribution trajectory of the proppant particles under the condition of proppant backflow and the microscopic behavior of embedding the fracture wall surface.
[0042] A plurality of depressions 16 are unevenly provided at the bottom of the groove 15 to further simulate the sand body structure in the actual reservoir and improve the simulation authenticity.
[0043] Since it is necessary to weigh the quartz sand in the sand-laying area before and after the experiment to determine the migration amount of the quartz sand, and then judge the stability of the sand body. In order to accurately measure the quartz sand in each sand-laying area, a grid-shaped insert plate is detachably arranged in the groove 15. The grid area of the grid-shaped insert plate matches the sand-laying area. The grid-shaped insert plate can divide the groove 15 into multiple sand-laying areas. Before sand-laying, it is used to lay sand in sections in cooperation with the grid-shaped insert plate. After sand-laying is completed, the grid-shaped insert plate is taken out. After the experiment is completed, the grid-shaped insert plate is inserted again to take sand in sections.
[0044] An angle rotation mechanism is arranged at the bottom of the bearing plate 1. The angle rotation mechanism includes a support 19, a column 18 and a support plate 17. The support plate 17 is rotatably arranged on the column 18, and a locking mechanism is arranged at the rotation position. The bearing plate 1 is connected to the support plate 17. By adjusting the angle of the bearing plate 1, different fracture angles can be simulated, improving the simulation authenticity; the locking mechanism is selected according to the rotational connection mode of the support plate 17 and the column 18. For example, the support plate 17 and the column 18 are connected by a ball joint. The ball joint includes a seat body with a spherical groove body and a ball rotating in the spherical groove body. The seat body and the ball are respectively connected to the support plate 17 and the column 18. A locking bolt is arranged on the seat body as the locking mechanism. The locking bolt is threadedly connected to the seat body and can extend into the spherical groove body to abut against the ball; or a horizontal rotation hole is arranged on the column 18. A horizontal rotation shaft is connected to the bottom of the support plate 17 through a connecting rod. The rotation shaft rotates in the rotation hole, and the part extending away from the connecting rod extends out of the rotation hole. The extending part of the rotation shaft is provided with a thread and is threadedly connected to a locking nut. By screwing the locking nut, the nut and the connecting rod respectively abut against both ends of the column 18 to achieve locking, and the nut is the locking mechanism.
[0045] A plurality of liquid inlet holes 3 are arranged on the bearing plate 1. The plurality of liquid inlet holes 3 are arranged in sequence from the near-well side to the far-well side. The liquid supply mechanism includes a pump body 7, a multi-way valve 11 and a plurality of branch pipelines 12 respectively communicated with the liquid inlet holes 3. The plurality of branch pipelines 12 are all communicated with the pump body 7 through the multi-way valve 11. The pump body 7 is communicated with the liquid tank. A main valve 10 is arranged between the pump body 7 and the multi-way valve 11 to control the total liquid delivery. Adjusting valves, flow meters 14 and pressure gauges 13 are arranged on the branch pipelines 12. By controlling the multi-way valve 11, different liquid inlet holes 3 can be selected for liquid inlet. By controlling the adjusting valves, the flow rate can be regulated. The design of multiple branches achieves local fine control and realizes the purpose of regulating the flow rate in different areas. It can simulate the situation where the flow rates in the near-well area and the far-well area are different under real formation conditions, improving the simulation authenticity.
[0046] An intermediate container 8 is provided between the pump body 7 and the multi-way valve 11. The inner cavity of the intermediate container 8 is divided into a first cavity and a second cavity by a piston 9. The pump body 7 and the multi-way valve 11 are respectively communicated with the first cavity and the second cavity. The liquid pressurized by the pump body 7 enters the first cavity, and the pressure is applied to the piston 9 to push the piston 9 to move, so as to realize the input of the liquid in the second cavity into the subsequent multi-way valve 11 and the branch pipeline 12; the liquid selected in this embodiment is water.
[0047] The present invention also provides a method for applying the device for quantitatively characterizing the diversion capacity under non-uniform sand laying conditions as described above, which is characterized by including the following steps:
[0048] S1: Lay unequal amounts of 40 / 70-mesh quartz sand in multiple sand laying areas of the groove 15, cover the cover plate 2, and then adjust the angle of the bearing plate 1 by adjusting the angle between the support plate 17 and the column 18; turn on the camera 5 and the computer 6 to prepare to start the experiment;
[0049] S2: Select the branch pipeline 12 that needs to pass water, start the pump body 7 to supply liquid into the groove 15, and the liquid flows out from the hole 4 after flowing through the sand laying area. In this step, the water flow rate entering the groove 15 can be regulated by regulating the regulating valve on the branch pipeline 12; the camera continuously takes image information during the experiment process;
[0050] S3: Obtain the sand bed permeability and the inlet and outlet pressure difference according to the change of the inlet and outlet liquid pressure of the groove 15, obtain the flow cross-sectional area (the horizontal cross-sectional area of the groove 15) and the sand bed length (the length of the groove 15 along the upward direction of the liquid inlet hole 3) by using the size of the groove 15, and finally calculate its sand bed diversion capacity;
[0051] S4: Close the liquid supply mechanism, open the cover plate 2, calculate the mass migration rate according to the remaining amount of quartz sand in the sand laying area, and obtain the proppant migration law.
[0052] In step S2, it is possible to obtain whether the sand laying is uniform during the experiment according to the image obtained by the camera 5, and the specific principle is as follows:
[0053] First, divide the obtained image into grids according to the distribution of the sand laying area, and then calculate the average gray value in each grid. The calculation method is:
[0054]
[0055] Then, establish a mathematical relationship between the gray value and the density according to the sand samples with known density (which needs to be experimentally calibrated in advance).
[0056] The calibration method is: Prepare multiple sand samples with known density (such as loose, medium, and dense), take pictures and measure their average gray values, and fit the curve. For example, the calibration formula is:
[0057]
[0058] Where a and b are coefficients fitted by calibration experiments (for example, the lower the gray value and the higher the density, a is a negative number).
[0059] According to the obtained density information, take the difference between the highest and lowest density areas and compare the overall average density. The calculation formula is:
[0060]
[0061] Where DDI is the density difference index, ρ max is the highest value of density, ρ min is the minimum density, ρ 平均 is the average density.
[0062] Definition classification: If DDI is less than 20%, the computer 6 marks the sand body photo as green, which is defined as uniform sand spreading; 20% less than DDI less than 40%, the computer 6 marks the sand body photo as yellow, which is defined as moderately non-uniform sand spreading; DDI is greater than 40%, the computer 6 marks the sand body photo as red, which is defined as non-uniform sand spreading.
[0063] In step S3, the conductivity is characterized by the Darcy correction formula. This model can accurately quantify the dynamic relationship between sand bed stability and conductivity under non-uniform sand spreading conditions, providing a direct basis for optimizing fracturing operation parameters. The conductivity calculation formula is as follows:
[0064]
[0065] Where Fc is the conductivity, k is the sand bed permeability, A is the flow cross-sectional area, P is the pressure difference between the liquid inlet hole 3 and the hole 4, L is the length of the sand bed, and μ is the fluid viscosity.
[0066] In step S4, the corresponding calculation formula is:
[0067]
[0068] Where MR is the mass mobility, m 迁移 is the mass of quartz sand in the sand-paving area after the experiment, m 初始 It is the quality of quartz sand in the sand-paved area after the experiment. When MR>15%, it means that the sand body has been significantly reconstructed and this area needs to be analyzed in detail. When MR<5%, it means that the sand bed is stable.
[0069] Adaptive changes made according to actual needs are all within the protection scope of the present invention.
