[0043] In order to enable those skilled in the art to better understand the technical solutions in this specification, the technical solutions in the embodiments of this specification will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of this specification. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of this specification, rather than all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in this specification, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative efforts shall fall within the protection scope of this specification.
[0044] As conventional oil and gas resources continue to decrease and people's demand for oil and gas continues to increase, the development of unconventional oil and gas has become increasingly important. Unconventional oil and gas are difficult to be economically and effectively exploited by traditional technical means and require large-scale hydraulic fracturing for development. During the hydraulic fracturing process, obtaining information on bottom-hole fracturing events and realizing bottom-hole fracturing event monitoring and evaluation are one of the key issues.
[0045] Commonly used fracturing monitoring means include microseismic, tracers, and cross-well monitoring, etc. Although each technology has been applied to fracturing on-site monitoring, each technology has certain limitations. The fiber optic sensing monitoring technology is a hydraulic fracturing monitoring technology developed in recent years. According to its technical principle, it can be mainly divided into two types: distributed fiber optic temperature sensing data (DTS) technology and distributed fiber optic acoustic data (DAS) technology. In particular, DAS data has advantages such as higher accuracy and signal intensity.
[0046] Currently, the main difficulty in solving the inversion model lies in the serious problem of multi-solution. At the same time, during the fracturing process, not all of the fracturing fluid acts on the crack propagation, and a large part of it will be lost into the formation, which is also an unsolved problem at present.
[0047] Aiming at the root causes of the above problems, this specification considers using distributed optical fiber as a sensor, which can realize high-precision monitoring of the target well, that is, using distributed optical fiber can obtain relatively accurate acoustic data of the target well. Then, using a preset prediction model, based on fracturing parameters, a preset fluid loss coefficient, and the initial crack position, the target crack information and the target fluid loss coefficient are iteratively inverted quickly and accurately. Furthermore, according to the target crack information and the target fluid loss coefficient, the fracturing strategy for the target well is determined accurately and efficiently.
[0048] Refer to Figure 1As shown in the figure, the embodiments of the present specification provide a method for determining crack information, which is specifically applied to the server side. Specifically, the method may include the following:
[0049] S101: Using a distributed optical fiber, obtain acoustic wave data of a target well in a target area, and perform phase-strain conversion processing on the acoustic wave data to obtain a first strain value;
[0050] S102: Obtain the fracturing parameters of the target well, and use a preset prediction model to determine the first crack information of the target well according to the fracturing parameters, a preset filtration coefficient, and an initial crack position;
[0051] S103: Determine a second strain value according to the first crack information and the optical fiber measurement point coordinates, and determine the model error of the preset prediction model according to the first strain value and the second strain value. When the model error is not less than a preset error threshold, perform iterative update processing on the preset filtration coefficient and the initial crack position until the model error is less than the preset error threshold to obtain a target filtration coefficient and a target crack position;
[0052] S104: Determine the target crack information of the target well according to the fracturing parameters, the target filtration coefficient, and the target crack position, and determine a fracturing strategy for the target well according to the target crack information of the target well and the target filtration coefficient.
[0053] Among them, the above-mentioned distributed optical fiber can be a sensing technology that obtains signals along the entire optical fiber, and can synchronously measure changes in physical quantities such as acoustic waves and temperature at multiple points on the optical fiber to form a continuous data distribution along the wellbore depth according to the measured data.
[0054] In some embodiments, the step of using a distributed optical fiber to obtain acoustic wave data of a target well in a target area may specifically include:
[0055] S1: According to the distributed optical fiber sensor arranged in the target well, monitor the change amount of the acoustic wave signal caused by fluid flow or vibration in the target area;
[0056] S2: Convert the change amount of the acoustic wave signal into corresponding acoustic wave data;
[0057] In some embodiments, when determining the model error of the preset prediction model according to the first strain value and the second strain value, specifically, the form of the sum of squared errors (SSE) may be adopted, and the squares of the differences between the first strain value and the second strain value are summed as a measure index of the model error.
[0058] Among them, the above-mentioned preset prediction model can be the (Perforation-Cluster-Kriger, PKN) model, which is a classic mathematical model for describing fracture propagation and fracturing fluid flow and is applicable to the case where the fracture length is greater than the fracture height.
[0059] In some embodiments, when the model error is not less than a preset error threshold, iterative update processing is performed on the preset filtration coefficient and the initial fracture position until the model error is less than the preset error threshold to obtain a target filtration coefficient and a target fracture position. Specifically, it may include:
[0060] When the model error is not less than a preset error threshold, using a preset iterative algorithm, iterative update processing is performed on the preset filtration coefficient and the initial fracture position until the model error is less than the preset error threshold to obtain a target filtration coefficient and a target fracture position; among them, the preset iterative algorithm can be determined based on a preset deep learning algorithm.
[0061] Specifically, the preset iterative algorithm may include but is not limited to genetic algorithms, particle swarm optimization algorithms, simulated annealing algorithms, and Kalman filters. In addition, with the goal of minimizing the model error, the preset filtration coefficient is gradually adjusted to optimize the volume loss of the fracturing fluid, and at the same time, the initial fracture position is corrected to more accurately reflect the actual distribution of fractures in the formation. Through each iteration, the theoretical strain value calculated by the model is compared with the actually observed strain value, and the parameters are adjusted according to the error value until the calculated value and the observed value are highly matched, ensuring that the theoretical model is closer to the actual geological and construction conditions.
[0062] Furthermore, when the model error converges below the preset error threshold, the iteration stops, and the obtained target filtration coefficient and target fracture position are used as the inversion results. These results not only accurately reflect the filtration behavior of the fracturing fluid but also provide the specific position of the fractures in the formation, providing an important basis for fracturing construction design and fracture monitoring. Through this optimization process, the accuracy and reliability of model prediction can be effectively improved, thus supporting subsequent construction optimization and production decision-making.
[0063] In some embodiments, determining the target fracture information of the target well according to the fracturing parameters, the target filtration coefficient, and the target fracture position may specifically include:
[0064] S1: According to the fracturing parameters and the target filtration coefficient, using a preset prediction model, determine the target fracture half-length and the target maximum fracture width of the target well;
[0065] S2: Determine the target fracture information of the target well according to the target fracture position, the target fracture half-length, and the target maximum fracture width.
[0066] Among them, the above target filtration coefficient can be obtained by calculating the ratio of the fracture volume of the target well to the volume of the fracturing fluid through the target fracture information of the target well.
[0067] Based on the above embodiments, by using a distributed optical fiber as a sensor, high-precision monitoring of the target well can be achieved, that is, high-precision acoustic wave data of the target well can be obtained by using the distributed optical fiber. Then, using a preset prediction model, based on the fracturing parameters, the preset filtration coefficient, and the initial fracture position, the target fracture information and the target filtration coefficient can be iteratively inverted quickly and accurately. Furthermore, according to the target fracture information and the target filtration coefficient, a fracturing strategy for the target well can be determined accurately and efficiently.
[0068] In some embodiments, the fracturing parameters include the fracturing fluid displacement, the plane Young's modulus, the fracturing fluid viscosity, the fracture height, the time, and the perforation position, and the first fracture information includes the fracture half-length, the maximum fracture width, and the fracture offset.
[0069] Among them, the above perforation position may refer to the hole position set on the wellbore wall for connecting the wellbore and the reservoir to achieve efficient fluid flow.
[0070] In some embodiments, when specifically implementing the method of determining the first fracture information of the target well according to the fracturing parameters, the preset filtration coefficient, and the initial fracture position, the following content may further be included:
[0071] S1: According to the preset filtration coefficient, the fracturing fluid displacement, the plane Young's modulus, the fracturing fluid viscosity, the fracture height, and the time, determine the fracture half-length according to the following formula:
[0072]
[0073] where a opt is the fracture half-length, k is the filtration coefficient, Q is the fracturing fluid displacement, E` is the plane Young's modulus, μ is the fracturing fluid viscosity, H is the fracture height, and t is the time;
[0074] S2: According to the preset filtration coefficient, the fracturing fluid displacement, the plane Young's modulus, the fracturing fluid viscosity, the fracture height, and the time, determine the maximum fracture width according to the following formula:
[0075]
[0076] where w optis the maximum slit width;
[0077] S3: Determine the fracture offset according to the initial fracture position and the perforation position.
[0078] Based on the above embodiments, determining the first fracture information of the target well through fracturing parameters, a preset filtration coefficient, and the initial fracture position can provide a reliable initial estimate for the optimization of fracture geometric parameters, thereby improving the efficiency and convergence rate of inversion calculation. At the same time, this preliminary information can quickly evaluate the formation's response to the fracturing operation, optimize the injection strategy of the fracturing fluid, reduce construction risks, and lay a foundation for the reliability of the final fracture model and the accuracy of the construction design, significantly enhancing the overall effect and economic benefits of the fracturing operation.
[0079] In some embodiments, when performing phase strain conversion processing on the acoustic wave data to obtain a first strain value, the method may further include the following when specifically implemented:
[0080] Determine the first strain value according to the laser wavelength, optical phase difference, fiber refractive index, scalar multiplication factor, and gauge length in the acoustic wave data.
[0081] In some embodiments, when determining the first strain value according to the laser wavelength, optical phase difference, fiber refractive index, scalar multiplication factor, and gauge length in the acoustic wave data, it can be obtained according to the following formula when specifically implemented:
[0082]
[0083] where ε is the first strain value, λ is the laser wavelength, is the optical phase difference, n c is the fiber refractive index, δ is the scalar multiplication factor, G L is the gauge length.
[0084] Based on the above embodiments, calculating the first strain value through the laser wavelength, optical phase difference, fiber refractive index, scalar multiplication factor, and gauge length in the acoustic wave data can accurately obtain the dynamic strain information of the formation near the fracture, reflecting the real formation response during the fracturing process. This method can improve the accuracy and resolution of strain measurement, provide reliable basic data for fracture parameter inversion, and simultaneously realize real-time monitoring of fracture propagation and fracturing fluid behavior, which helps to optimize the fracturing design, reduce construction risks, and improve the efficiency and effect of the fracturing operation.
[0085] In some embodiments, when determining the second strain value according to the first fracture information and the fiber measurement point coordinates, the method may further include the following when specifically implemented:
[0086] S1: Determine the crack unit coordinates according to the crack half-length and the crack offset in the first crack information;
[0087] S2: Determine the crack width distribution corresponding to the maximum crack width according to the crack unit coordinates and the maximum crack width;
[0088] S3: Determine the second strain value according to the crack width distribution corresponding to the maximum crack width, the optical fiber measurement point coordinates, and the Green's function matrix.
[0089] In some embodiments, when specifically implementing the determination of the second strain value according to the crack width distribution corresponding to the maximum crack width, the optical fiber measurement point coordinates, and the Green's function matrix, it can be obtained according to the following formula:
[0090]
[0091] where ε is the second strain value, x s,k is the optical fiber measurement point coordinate, y s,k is the optical fiber measurement point coordinate, G is the Green's function matrix, and w is the crack width distribution.
[0092] In some embodiments, when specifically implementing the iterative update process of the preset filtration coefficient and the initial crack position, the method may further include the following:
[0093] Use the preset nonlinear least squares method to perform iterative update processing on the preset filtration coefficient and the initial crack position.
[0094] Based on the above embodiments, in the process of performing iterative update processing on the preset filtration coefficient and the initial crack position, using the preset nonlinear least squares algorithm can effectively solve the possible multi-solution problem.
[0095] In some embodiments, when specifically implementing the determination of the fracturing strategy for the target well according to the target crack information and the target filtration coefficient of the target well, the method may further include the following:
[0096] S1: When the target filtration coefficient is greater than the preset filtration threshold, determine the reduction amount of the fracturing fluid injection rate for the target well and the increase amount of the liquid viscosity for the target well according to the target crack information of the target well;
[0097] S2: Determine the fracturing strategy for the target well according to the reduction amount and the increase amount.
[0098] Specifically, for example, assume that the target filtration coefficient of the target well is 0.25, while the preset filtration threshold is 0.2, indicating that there is a relatively large loss of fracturing fluid in the fracture. Based on the geometric information of the fracture and the filtration situation, it is decided to reduce the injection rate of the fracturing fluid from 50 L / min to 40 L / min to reduce the liquid loss rate. At the same time, increase the viscosity of the fracturing fluid from 10 cP to 20 cP to improve the sand-carrying capacity of the liquid and the fracture support effect. By adjusting the injection rate and the liquid viscosity, the fracture propagation can be better controlled and the fracturing efficiency can be improved.
[0099] Based on the above embodiments, the fracturing strategy optimization method based on the target filtration coefficient can effectively reduce the waste of fracturing fluid and reduce the negative impact of liquid loss on fracture support and propagation. At the same time, adjusting the liquid viscosity can enhance the fracture filling degree, improve the fracture stability, improve the construction efficiency and stimulation effect, so as to achieve the efficient utilization of resources and the maximization of economic benefits.
[0100] As can be seen from the above, a method for determining fracture information provided by an embodiment of this specification uses a distributed optical fiber to obtain acoustic wave data of a target well in a target area, and performs phase-strain conversion processing on the acoustic wave data to obtain a first strain value; obtains the fracturing parameters of the target well, and uses a preset prediction model to determine the first fracture information of the target well according to the fracturing parameters, the preset filtration coefficient, and the initial fracture position; determines a second strain value according to the first fracture information and the optical fiber measurement point coordinates, and determines the model error of the preset prediction model according to the first strain value and the second strain value, and when the model error is not less than a preset error threshold, performs iterative update processing on the preset filtration coefficient and the initial fracture position until the model error is less than the preset error threshold to obtain a target filtration coefficient and a target fracture position; determines the target fracture information of the target well according to the fracturing parameters, the target filtration coefficient, and the target fracture position, and determines a fracturing strategy for the target well according to the target fracture information of the target well and the target filtration coefficient. In this way, using a distributed optical fiber as a sensor can achieve high-precision monitoring of the target well, that is, using a distributed optical fiber can obtain relatively accurate acoustic wave data of the target well, and then, using a preset prediction model, based on fracturing parameters, a preset filtration coefficient, and an initial fracture position, quickly and accurately iteratively invert to obtain target fracture information and a target filtration coefficient, and further accurately and efficiently determine a fracturing strategy for the target well according to the target fracture information and the target filtration coefficient.

[0129] It should be noted that the units, devices, modules, etc. illustrated in the above embodiments can be specifically implemented by computer chips or entities, or by products with certain functions. For the convenience of description, when describing the above devices, they are divided into various modules according to functions for separate description.

[0130] As can be seen from the above, based on a device for determining fracture information provided by an embodiment of this specification, by using a distributed optical fiber as a sensor, high-precision monitoring of a target well can be achieved. That is, by using the distributed optical fiber, acoustic wave data of the target well with relatively high precision can be obtained. Then, by using a preset prediction model, based on fracturing parameters, a preset fluid loss coefficient, and an initial fracture position, the target fracture information and the target fluid loss coefficient can be obtained through rapid and accurate iterative inversion. Furthermore, based on the target fracture information and the target fluid loss coefficient, a fracturing strategy for the target well can be accurately and efficiently determined.
[0131] In a specific scenario example, a method and device for determining fracture information provided by this specification can be applied. By using a distributed optical fiber as a sensor, high-precision monitoring of a target well can be achieved. That is, by using the distributed optical fiber, acoustic wave data of the target well with relatively high precision can be obtained. Then, by using a preset prediction model, based on fracturing parameters, a preset fluid loss coefficient, and an initial fracture position, the target fracture information and the target fluid loss coefficient can be obtained through rapid and accurate iterative inversion. Furthermore, based on the target fracture information and the target fluid loss coefficient, a fracturing strategy for the target well can be accurately and efficiently determined. The specific implementation process can include the following content.
[0132] In some embodiments, by using distributed optical fiber acoustic wave data (i.e., Distributed Acoustic Sensing, DAS data) to invert the fracture geometry model, the specific implementation is as follows:
[0133] Refer to Figure 4As shown, the distributed fiber optic acoustic data collected during 200 minutes of fracturing can be input first, and the distributed fiber optic acoustic data is converted into real strain values (i.e., the first strain values) through the phase-strain conversion formula. The fracturing parameters recorded during 200 minutes of fracturing are input, including the fracturing fluid displacement, planar Young's modulus, fracturing fluid viscosity, fracture height, time, perforation location. The corresponding fracture half-length and maximum fracture width are calculated through a preset filtration coefficient and a preset prediction model (i.e., the PKN model introducing the preset filtration coefficient). Among them, the preset filtration coefficient is taken to be close to the actual value, that is, between 0.1 and 0.3, and the fracture offset is determined according to the fracturing implementation plan. The three parameters of the above fracture half-length, maximum fracture width, and fracture offset (the first fracture information) are used as the inversion initial values to be input into the objective function, the fracture width distribution is calculated, and the simulated strain values (i.e., the second strain values) are calculated through coordinate transformation and the displacement discontinuity method. The real strain values (i.e., the first strain values) are input to compare with the simulated strain values (i.e., the second strain values), and the solution is obtained through iterative calculation using a preset non-linear least squares algorithm (Levenberg-Marquardt, LM). The fracture information corresponding to each group of data is calculated, and the corresponding fracture volume is calculated therefrom. By comparing the inverted fracture volume with the fracturing fluid injection volume, it can be found that the ratio of the inverted volume to the fracturing fluid volume is larger in the initial stage of fracturing, but this ratio is continuously decreasing as the fracturing continues. The ratio in the stable section is taken and the average value is calculated. The error between the average value and the filtration coefficient range is generally less than 15%, that is, the ratio of the fracture volume to the fracturing fluid volume can be considered as the target filtration coefficient varying with time. Finally, the target fracture information (i.e., the target fracture half-length, target maximum fracture width, target fracture location) and the target filtration coefficient that meet the real strain values are output.
[0134] Although this specification provides method operation steps as described in the embodiments or flowcharts, more or fewer operation steps may be included based on conventional or non-creative means. The step sequences listed in the embodiments are only one way among numerous step execution sequences and do not represent the only execution sequence. When the actual device or client product is executed, it can be executed in the method sequence shown in the embodiments or the drawings or executed in parallel (for example, in an environment of parallel processors or multi-threaded processing, or even in a distributed data processing environment). The term "comprising", "including" or any other variant thereof is intended to cover non-exclusive inclusion, so that a process, method, product or device comprising a series of elements not only includes those elements but also includes other elements not explicitly listed, or further includes elements inherent to such process, method, product or device. Without further limitations, there is no exclusion of additional identical or equivalent elements in the process, method, product or device comprising the said elements. The words such as first, second, etc. are used to represent names and do not represent any specific order.
[0135] Those skilled in the art also know that, in addition to implementing the controller in the form of pure computer-readable program code, the method steps can be logically programmed to enable the controller to implement the same functions in the form of logic gates, switches, application-specific integrated circuits, programmable logic controllers, embedded microcontrollers, etc. Therefore, such a controller can be considered a hardware component, and the devices included therein for implementing various functions can also be regarded as the structures within the hardware component. Or even, the devices for implementing various functions can be regarded as either software modules for implementing the method or structures within the hardware component.
[0136] From the description of the above embodiments, those skilled in the art can clearly understand that this specification can be implemented by means of software plus a necessary general hardware platform.
