Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of petroleum extraction technology, and in particular to a method for calculating the contribution ratio of coal-rock gas mixtures at different maturity levels. Background Technology
[0002] Natural gas is a mixture naturally occurring in geological formations, encompassing both hydrocarbon and non-hydrocarbon gases. Coal-rock gas, which is generated within the coal itself or transported from other gas sources, exists in both free and adsorbed states, with a high content of free gas. Through effective reservoir modification, it can rapidly produce gas, enabling industrial-scale extraction. Its essence is a hydrocarbon gas.
[0003] In the complex geological structure of coal-bearing strata, source rocks are not limited to coal. In fact, mudstones developed in the upper and lower strata also possess the ability to serve as source rocks and supply hydrocarbons. The carbon isotope composition of natural gas generated from the thermal cracking of organic matter is closely related to the degree of thermal evolution of the parent material. This correlation provides important clues for exploring the properties of source rocks and can reflect their characteristics to a certain extent.
[0004] In the field of natural gas research, methane and ethane carbon isotopes play a crucial role, often used to determine the maturity and genetic type of natural gas. Methane carbon isotopes are particularly significantly affected by maturity, and are therefore frequently used as an important indicator of natural gas maturity. Although natural gas carbon isotopes as a whole are affected by thermal evolution, the carbon isotopes of heavier hydrocarbons such as ethane are relatively stable and less affected by thermal maturity, instead primarily reflecting differences in the type of parent material. Therefore, ethane carbon isotopes have become an important indicator for identifying the genetic type of natural gas.
[0005] Coal-bearing and argillaceous source rocks produce natural gas with distinct characteristics due to their significantly different parent material types. However, both types of natural gas are humic, making it difficult to determine the mixing ratio using conventional methods. While precise ethane carbon isotope analysis can differentiate these two types of natural gas to some extent, it remains challenging to distinguish the contribution of different source rocks when identifying mixed-origin coal-bearing gas, especially the mixture of humic coal-bearing gas and humic mudstone gas. Currently, when determining the contribution ratio of different source rocks in mixed-origin coal-bearing gas of varying maturity, the distinction between coal-bearing and mudstone gas is often transformed into a distinction between humic and saprophytic natural gas, neglecting the influence of humic mudstone gas in this assessment. Furthermore, the common phenomenon of mixed hydrocarbon supply from different types of source rocks in coal-rock gas makes it impossible to simultaneously determine the maturity and genetic type of coal-rock gas. Moreover, the influence of thermal evolution on carbon isotopes is ignored, leading to significant errors in conventional methods for determining the maturity and genetic type of mixed-genetic coal-rock gas. In short, current techniques cannot accurately determine the contribution ratio of different source rocks in mixed-genetic coal-rock gas of varying maturity. Therefore, establishing a calculation method to directly identify the contribution ratio of different source rocks in mixed-genetic coal-rock gas (coal-rock gas and mudstone gas) is of great significance. Summary of the Invention

[0024] Other advantages, objectives and features of the present invention will become apparent in part from the following description, and in part from those skilled in the art through study and practice of the invention. Attached Figure Description

[0026] Figure 2 This is a diagram illustrating the natural gas mixing ratio in the example. Detailed Implementation
[0027] The preferred embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. It should be understood that the preferred embodiments described herein are for illustration and explanation only and are not intended to limit the present invention.
[0028] This invention provides a method for calculating the mixed contribution ratio of coal-gas at different maturity levels based on methane carbon isotopes, ethane carbon isotopes, and aridity coefficient. Methane carbon isotopes become heavier with increasing thermal evolution. The parent material sources of coal and mudstone differ significantly. During the gas generation process from source rocks, the carbon isotopes of kerogen are inherited. Therefore, under the same or similar thermal evolution conditions, coal-gas from coal-bearing source rocks has a heavier carbon isotope composition than mudstone gas from argillaceous source rocks. Based on geochemical data analysis of coal-gas samples, the coal-gas is generally dominated by methane, with most methane contents exceeding 80%, and methane carbon isotope values mainly distributed in the range of -45‰ to -25‰. Ethane carbon isotopes are divided into two categories: coal-bearing source rocks and argillaceous source rocks. The ethane carbon isotopes of natural gas generated from coal-bearing source rocks are relatively heavy, mainly distributed in the range of -22‰ to -16‰; the ethane carbon isotopes of natural gas generated from argillaceous source rocks are relatively light, mainly distributed in the range of -29‰ to -22‰.
[0029] Studies have revealed significant differences between traditional methods for identifying the mixing ratio of coal-rock gas and mudstone gas, and those for identifying humic and saprophytic natural gas. Traditional methods rely on methane and ethane carbon isotopes, which are insufficient for identifying coal-rock gas and mudstone gas. Both coal-rock gas and mudstone gas are supplied by humic kerogen, making judgment based solely on methane and ethane carbon isotopes prone to error. Therefore, this invention, in addition to methane and ethane carbon isotopes, also analyzes extensive hydrocarbon generation thermal simulation experimental data, revealing a difference in the drying coefficients of coal-rock gas and mudstone gas. Under the same maturity conditions, the drying coefficient of mudstone gas is significantly lower than that of coal-rock gas, and the drying coefficient can be used to assist in determining the mixing ratio of mudstone gas and coal-rock gas.
[0030] Based on this, the method of the present invention calculates the contribution ratio of coal-rock gas mixing at different maturity levels using methane carbon isotopes, ethane carbon isotopes, and drying coefficients.
[0031] The following describes the calculation method for the contribution ratio of coal-rock gas mixtures at different maturity levels, using a natural gas extraction area in a basin as an example. The specific steps are as follows:
[0032] S1. Establish a dynamic model for identifying the mixing ratio of mixed-source gas.
[0033] It can reflect the maturity of natural gas. These parameters can reflect the type of natural gas source material, but in practice, it is difficult to determine the type based solely on these two parameters; in addition to and In addition, it is necessary to select a parameter to establish a hybrid equation, and to work with different parameters... and By fitting the data, it was found that the drying coefficient was related to... and The dryness coefficient showed a good correlation (see Table 1), so it was chosen as the third parameter.
[0034] Table 1. Correlation coefficients between carbon isotopes and dryness coefficient
[0035]
[0036] Based on the definition of isotopes and the principle of mass balance, precise formulas can be derived for the carbon isotope ratios of mixed-source gases and end-member gases, as well as the mixing ratio, which can be approximated as a weighted average of the end-member gases. Using an end-member gas geochemical model to replace the static parameters, a dynamic model for identifying the mixing ratio of mixed-source gases is obtained. The model includes the following two formulas:

[0039] The meanings of each parameter in the formula are explained in Table 2.

[0041]
[0042] S2. Obtain several coalbed methane and mudstone gas samples from the study area, and determine the methane and ethane carbon isotopes, as well as the drying coefficient, for each sample. The coalbed methane and mudstone gas samples were obtained from pure mudstone and pure coalbed methane samples through hydrocarbon generation thermal simulation experiments.
[0043] The methods for determining the carbon isotopes of methane and ethane are as follows:
[0044] (1) Take 3 ml of coal rock gas or mudstone gas sample and inject it into an Agilent 6890N gas chromatograph equipped with a flame ionization detector, and separate the gas through a capillary column (filled with alumina, 50 m × 0.53 mm);
[0045] (2) Set the temperature program of the gas chromatograph as follows: initial temperature is 40℃, hold temperature for 7 min, then increase temperature to 180℃ at 10℃ / min, hold temperature for 15 min, carrier gas is helium, flow rate is 13 ml / min.
[0046] (3) Collect the separated hydrocarbon compounds, including methane gas and ethane gas, by chromatographic separation;
[0047] (4) The separated methane gas is reacted with oxygen in a high-temperature reaction tube at a reaction temperature of 1000℃. The resulting reaction gas is then passed through a liquid nitrogen cold trap and an alcohol cold trap in sequence to achieve the separation of carbon dioxide gas from water and helium.
[0048] (5) The obtained carbon dioxide gas was detected in a Thermo Delta V mass spectrometer equipped with an Agilent 6890N gas chromatograph to obtain the values of methane carbon isotopes in natural gas;
[0049] (6) The separated ethane gas is reacted with oxygen in a high-temperature reaction tube at a reaction temperature of 900°C. The resulting reaction gas is then passed through a liquid nitrogen cold trap and an alcohol cold trap in sequence to achieve the separation of carbon dioxide gas from water and nitrogen.
[0050] (7) The obtained carbon dioxide gas was detected in a Thermo Delta V mass spectrometer equipped with an Agilent 6890N gas chromatograph to obtain the values of ethane carbon isotopes in natural gas.
[0051] The method for determining the drying coefficient is as follows:
[0052] (1) Use stainless steel high-pressure sampling bottles with a dual-valve design and passivation treatment; maintain pipeline pressure (≥5MPa) to avoid volatilization of light components; keep the temperature consistent with the ambient temperature to avoid condensation effect; flush the pipeline with the gas to be tested more than three times before sampling to reduce air pollution. Analyze within 24 hours after sampling, or store the sample in a low-temperature (-20℃) environment to inhibit component changes.
[0053] (2) A chromatograph equipped with a flame ionization detector (FID) and a thermal conductivity detector (TCD) was used; a Porapak Q pre-column was used to separate interfering substances such as CO2 and H2S; an HP-PLOT Al2O3 (50m×0.53mm×15μm) main column was used for the separation of C1-C6 hydrocarbons; high-purity helium was used as the carrier gas at a flow rate of 1.5mL / min. The injection port temperature was set to 200℃ and the split ratio was 50:1; the initial column temperature was set to 40℃ and held for 5min, then increased to 180℃ at a rate of 10℃ / min and held for 10min; the detector temperatures were set to FID 250℃ and TCD 200℃; the injection volume was 1μL (through a six-way valve quantitative loop).
[0054] (3) Use GC-MS to characterize complex components (such as sulfur-containing compounds) to avoid interference from overlapping chromatographic peaks.
[0055] (4) Data processing
[0056] The peak areas are normalized, and the peak areas of each component are integrated, combined with a correction factor. The correction factor needs to be calibrated in advance using a standard gas, i.e., multi-point calibration using NIST SRM standard gas (such as SRM 2614a).
[0057] Dryness coefficient calculation:
[0058] (3)
[0059] A is the peak area, and f is the correction factor for each component.
[0060] (5) Error control and quality control
[0061] Repeatability: Three parallel determinations, relative standard deviation (RSD) ≤ 1%;
[0062] Standard addition method: Add a known concentration of C2H6 standard gas to the sample, and the recovery rate needs to be between 90% and 102%;
[0063] Blank experiment: Use high-purity helium to verify the system background.
[0064] (6) Auxiliary analysis methods (cross-validation)
[0065] Dew point determination method: A cold mirror dew point meter (Michelson interferometer) was used to determine the dew point of gaseous water and hydrocarbons; the dryness coefficient is negatively correlated with the hydrocarbon dew point and is used to verify the GC results.
[0066] FTIR (Full-Time Infrared Spectroscopy): Detection of characteristic absorption peaks of CH4 and C2H6 (CH4: 3018 cm⁻¹) -1 C2H6: 2975cm -1 ), supplementing quantitative analysis.
[0067] S3. Measure the reflectance of vitrinite;
[0068] Several unoxidized pure coal rock samples and pure mudstone samples were taken and their vitrinite reflectance was measured. The measurement method is as follows:
[0069] (1) Select unoxidized pure coal rock samples or pure coal rock samples, seal and store them in an argon atmosphere to avoid photothermal decomposition; use epoxy resin for vacuum impregnation (curing at 40℃ for 24h) to avoid changes in the organic structure caused by high temperature; use silicon carbide sandpaper to grind from 400 to 1200 mesh in stages, and then use diamond suspension (3μm to 0.25μm) to polish the surface to a roughness R. a ≤0.02μm, ensuring no scratches interfere with reflectivity measurement.
[0070] (2) A polarized light system equipped with a halogen lamp (546nm monochromatic light, color temperature 3200K) was used. The objective lens was a 50× oil immersion objective lens (NA=0.85), with an oil refractive index n=1.518 (calibrated at 23℃). The detector was a photomultiplier tube (PMT) or a high dynamic range CCD (signal-to-noise ratio ≥10). 6 :1) A microphotometer system; and using synthetic sapphire (R o=0.58%) or YAG crystal (R o Calibrate using a value of 0.89%, with a daily calibration deviation ≤0.02%.

A standard sample (SARM 20, Ro=0.58%) should be inserted in each batch, and the measured value should be within ±0.03%. The laboratory temperature should be controlled at 23±1℃, and the humidity <40% to avoid thermal drift and sample moisture absorption.
