Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of oil and gas reservoir development, and particularly to a method and system for analyzing the main controlling factors affecting the development of fractures in tight sandstone. Background Art

[0002] Tight oil and gas reservoirs are characterized by low porosity, low permeability, etc. According to existing drilling data and development production experience, fractures are the key factors restricting the development effect of tight oil and gas reservoirs. For fracture prediction, a great deal of work has been done in geophysical prediction. However, due to the huge difference between the scale of fractures and the resolution of seismic data, the effect of fracture prediction is very limited.

[0003] In the prior art, from the perspective of the mechanism of fracture generation, it is considered that the degree of fracture development is mainly determined by two aspects: external factors controlled by tectonic stress and deformation, and internal factors controlled by rock physics. However, existing research mainly focuses on qualitative analysis and single-factor analysis. There is a lack of quantitative analysis of the influence degree and comprehensive research on multiple factors that determine the main controlling factors of fracture development.

[0004] Therefore, the prior art needs to provide a multi-factor quantitative comprehensive analysis scheme applicable to tight sandstone to optimize the main controlling factors of fracture development. Summary of the Invention

[0009] Preferably, the preset correlation coefficient threshold is greater than 0.5.

[0010] Preferably, in the step of sorting the correlation coefficients under the same fracture factor and screening out the fracture factors with the correlation coefficient greater than the preset correlation coefficient threshold to obtain one or more main controlling factors of fracture development affecting each fracture development indicator, the following steps are included: using the preset correlation coefficient and correlation level relationship model to convert the correlation coefficients under different fracture development indicators into a heat map of the correlation between the fracture factor and the fracture development indicator, so as to use the heat map of the correlation between the fracture factor and the fracture development indicator to screen the main controlling factors of fracture development corresponding to each fracture development indicator.

[0011] Preferably, the correlation coefficient between each fracture factor and each fracture development indicator is calculated by the Pearson correlation coefficient calculation method or the Spearman rank correlation coefficient calculation method for quantitative analysis of the correlation.

[0012] Preferably, if the data of the two variables to be calculated for correlation obey the normal distribution, the Pearson correlation coefficient calculation method is used to calculate the corresponding correlation coefficient, otherwise the Spearman rank correlation coefficient calculation method is used.

[0013] In addition, an embodiment of the present invention provides a computer-readable storage medium, which includes a series of instructions for executing the method steps for analyzing the main controlling factors affecting the fracture development of tight sandstone as described above.

[0014] On the other hand, an embodiment of the present invention further provides a system for analyzing the main controlling factors affecting the fracture development of tight sandstone, including: a fracture factor generation module configured to determine the fracture factors affecting the fracture development based on the geological pattern of the fracture development in the tight sandstone gas reservoir; a fracture development indicator generation module configured to determine multiple fracture development indicators according to the imaging logging data, core data and outcrop data of the target area; and a main controlling factor analysis module configured to screen the main controlling factors affecting the fracture development of tight sandstone by quantitatively analyzing the correlation between each fracture factor and the multiple fracture development indicators.

[0029] To solve the technical problems in the above-mentioned background art, an embodiment of the present application proposes a method and system for analyzing the main controlling factors affecting the development of fractures in tight sandstone. Based on the geological model of fracture development, the method and system optimize the main controlling factors of fracture development through correlation analysis, so as to characterize the main controlling factors of fracture development in tight gas reservoirs.

[0030] Example 1

[0031] Figure 1 It is a schematic diagram of the steps of the method for analyzing the main controlling factors affecting the development of fractures in tight sandstone according to an embodiment of the present application. Figure 2 It is a schematic diagram of the specific process of the method for analyzing the main controlling factors affecting the development of fractures in tight sandstone according to an embodiment of the present application. The following combines Figure 1 and Figure 2 , and describes the specific step process of the method for analyzing the main controlling factors affecting the development of fractures in tight sandstone (also called "fracture development main controlling factor analysis method") described in the embodiments of the present invention.

[0032] Step S110 determines fracture factors affecting fracture development based on the geological model of fracture development in tight sandstone gas reservoirs.

[0033] For tight sandstone gas reservoirs, in different regions, fracture development has different geological models. According to the fracture development pattern in the area where the drilled wells are located in the target area to be studied (see Figure 3 ), combined with the tectonic background of the target area, the influence of faults and folds on fractures is the most critical. In step S110, according to the actual situation of the area to be studied, it is clear that the development of tight sandstone fractures is mainly controlled by external factors such as tectonic stress and deformation, and internal factors controlled by rock physics are secondary. The geological model of fracture development in tight sandstone gas reservoirs is mainly affected by large-scale faults and folds (as shown in Figure 3 ). Under the constraint of the geological model, fracture factors related to fracture genesis are characterized. Therefore, in the embodiments of the present invention, the fracture factors include not only fault characteristic parameters but also fold characteristic parameters.

[0034] In one embodiment, the fracture factors include but are not limited to: distance from the fault, width-to-height ratio of the fault, fault throw (i.e., displacement), fault dip angle, height of the fold, width of the fold, distance to the (fold) core, quartz content, quartz structure (i.e., grain size), feldspar content, coal content, porosity, permeability, and shale content.

[0035] Step S120 determines multiple fracture development indicators according to the imaging logging data, core data, and outcrop data of the target area to be evaluated.

[0036] In step S120, according to the imaging logging data, core fracture data, and outcrop data of the drilled wells in the target area, the fracture development index of the current area is statistically calculated. In an embodiment of the present invention, the fracture development index is an index that can reflect the fracture development situation. In an embodiment of the present invention, the fracture development index includes, but is not limited to: fracture density, fracture dip angle, high-angle fracture density (for example, the fracture density of fractures greater than a preset angle, where the preset angle is preferably 30°), fracture aperture, fracture porosity, and fracture permeability.

[0037] Specifically, the fracture data from different sources in the target area to be evaluated are sorted, summarized, and statistically analyzed to obtain a plurality of fracture development indexes. The plurality of fracture development indexes are constructed as the actual data of each fracture development index of different wells in the horizontal direction and the actual data of each fracture development index of different horizons in the vertical direction.

[0038] Next, in step S130, the main controlling factors affecting the fracture development of tight sandstone are screened by quantitatively analyzing the correlation between each fracture factor and the plurality of fracture development indexes obtained in step S120.

[0039] In step S130, first, according to the actual data of each fracture factor and the actual data of each fracture development index, the correlation coefficient between each fracture factor and each fracture development index is calculated.

[0040] In one embodiment, the correlation coefficient between each fracture factor and each fracture development index is calculated by the Pearson correlation coefficient calculation method or the Spearman rank correlation coefficient calculation method to quantitatively analyze the correlation.

[0041] In an embodiment of the present invention, which method is selected to calculate the correlation between different variables is related to whether the variables are linearly correlated. If the data of the two variables to be calculated for correlation follow a normal distribution, the Pearson correlation coefficient calculation method is used to calculate the corresponding correlation coefficient; otherwise, the Spearman rank correlation coefficient calculation method is used.

[0042] Figure 4 This is an example diagram of the statistical chart of the correlation between the fracture development index calculated based on the Pearson correlation coefficient and the fracture factor in the method for analyzing the main controlling factors affecting the fracture development of tight sandstone in the embodiments of the present application. Figure 4 It shows the calculation results of the correlation coefficient between the fracture density and each fracture factor calculated by the Pearson correlation coefficient method, and the calculation results of the correlation coefficient between the high-angle fracture density and each fracture factor.

[0043] In one embodiment, the Pearson correlation coefficient calculation (Pearson correlation coefficient calculation method) is simple and can describe the linear relationship between two variables. The greater the covariance between two variables, the closer the trends presented by their values within a range of data points. This method has relatively high requirements for data. The data is usually assumed to come from a normal distribution, and the gap between experimental data should not be too large. The Pearson correlation coefficient is greatly affected by outliers. The formula for calculating the Pearson correlation coefficient is as follows:

[0044]

[0045] In Equation (1), ρ1(X,Y) represents the Pearson correlation coefficient between the Xth crack factor variable and the Yth crack development index variable, σ X and σ Y represent the standard deviations of variable X and variable Y respectively, μ X and μ Y represent the means of variable X and variable Y respectively, E[(X - μ X )(Y - μ Y )] represents the covariance between variable X and variable Y, n1 represents the total number of data of variable X, X i represents the ith data in variable X, n2 represents the total number of data of variable Y, and Y j represents the jth data in variable Y.

[0046] In one embodiment, the Spearman rank correlation coefficient, also known as the rank correlation coefficient. The Spearman rank correlation coefficient calculation method is mainly used to describe the degree and direction of association between two variables when there are ranked variables or when the variable distribution characteristics cannot be described by the mean and standard deviation. The range of the Spearman rank correlation coefficient is from -1 to 1. A negative value indicates negative correlation, and 0 indicates no correlation. Its expression is:

[0047]

[0048] In Equation (2), ρ2(X,Y) represents the Spearman rank correlation coefficient between the Xth crack factor variable and the Yth crack development index variable; N represents the paired sample size of variable X and variable Y; i represents the serial number of the paired samples; d i represents the difference in ranks of the ith pair of paired sample variables, that is, the difference in the positions (ranks) of the paired variables after sorting the two variables respectively.

[0049] After calculating the correlation coefficients between each fracture factor variable and each fracture development index variable, step S130 also sorts the correlation coefficients under the same fracture factor and filters out the fracture factors with correlation coefficients greater than the preset correlation coefficient threshold, so as to obtain one or more main controlling factors of fracture development affecting each fracture development index.

[0050] Since it is considered that the geological pattern of fracture development in the target area is mainly controlled by external factors such as tectonic deformation and stress, fracture factors with a correlation coefficient higher than 0.5 are selected. In one embodiment, the preset correlation coefficient threshold is greater than 0.5.

[0051] Through the calculation and analysis of the correlation coefficients of the above two methods, fracture development index parameters with relatively strong correlation with fracture development are screened out. Specifically, the correlation coefficients calculated by the Pearson correlation coefficient method or the Spearman rank correlation coefficient method are sorted, the parameters with higher correlation coefficients are retained, and the parameters with lower correlation coefficients are excluded. In one embodiment, the parameters with the absolute value of the Pearson correlation coefficient or the Spearman rank correlation coefficient less than 0.5 are excluded, the parameters with the absolute value of the calculated correlation coefficient greater than 0.5 are retained, and the fracture development indexes corresponding to the calculated and excluded coefficients are retained to obtain the final main controlling factors of fractures in tight sandstone gas reservoirs.

[0052] In one embodiment, the embodiment of the present invention will use a pre-constructed relationship model between correlation coefficients and correlation levels to convert the correlation coefficients under different fracture development indexes into a heat map of the correlation between fracture factors and fracture development indexes, so as to screen out the main controlling factors of fracture development corresponding to each fracture development index by using the converted heat map of the correlation between fracture factors and fracture development indexes.

[0053] Specifically, the embodiment of the present invention will divide a series of obtained correlation coefficients into multiple correlation levels according to the numerical size of the absolute value of the coefficient, determine the coefficients with an absolute value of the correlation coefficient of 0.8 - 1.0 as extremely strongly correlated, determine the coefficients with an absolute value of the correlation coefficient of 0.6 - 0.8 as strongly correlated, determine the coefficients with an absolute value of the correlation coefficient of 0.4 - 0.6 as moderately correlated, determine the coefficients with an absolute value of the correlation coefficient of 0.2 - 0.4 as weakly correlated, and determine the coefficients with an absolute value of the correlation coefficient of 0 - 0.2 as extremely weakly or uncorrelated. Among them, the correlation level division table is shown in Table 1:

[0054] Table 1 Correlation level division table

[0055] Variable correlation level Absolute value of correlation coefficient Very strong correlation 0.8-1.0 Strong correlation 0.6-0.8 Medium correlation 0.4-0.6 Weak correlation 0.2-0.4 Very weak or no correlation 0.0-0.2

[0056] In this way, after converting the correlation coefficients between different fracture development indicators and each fracture factor into a heat map of the correlation between the fracture factor and the fracture development indicator, the embodiments of the present invention can use the converted heat map of the correlation between the fracture factor and the fracture development indicator to quickly screen out one or more fracture factors corresponding to each fracture development indicator, that is, the main controlling factors of fracture development.

[0057] Example 2

[0058] Based on the above method for analyzing the main controlling factors of fracture development, the embodiments of the present invention also provide a computer-readable storage medium, on which a computer program is stored, and the computer program is executed to run a method for analyzing the main controlling factors affecting the fracture development of tight sandstone. The computer program can run computer instructions, and the computer instructions include computer program code, and the computer program code can be in the form of source code, object code, executable file or some intermediate form, etc.

[0060] It should be noted that the content included in the computer-readable storage medium can be appropriately increased or decreased according to the requirements of legislation and patent practice in the jurisdiction. For example, in some jurisdictions, it is appropriately increased or decreased according to the requirements of legislation and patent practice. For example, in some jurisdictions, it is appropriately increased or decreased according to the requirements of legislation and patent practice. For example, in some jurisdictions according to patent practice, the computer-readable storage medium does not include electrical carrier signals and telecommunication signals.
