Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the fields of rock mechanics and unconventional oil and gas development technology, and in particular to a method, equipment, storage medium and program product for fine evaluation of continuous brittleness index based on scratch test under true triaxial stress. Background Technology

[0002] As a crucial component of unconventional oil and gas resources, the core challenge in the exploration and development of shale oil and gas lies in assessing the fracturability of the reservoir. The shale brittleness index is a key parameter characterizing reservoir fracturability, directly influencing the complexity of the fracture network during hydraulic fracturing. Highly brittle shale tends to form network fractures, while low-brittle areas are dominated by single fractures, leading to significant differences in fracturing effectiveness. Shale reservoir development faces challenges from extreme environments and strong heterogeneity; therefore, there is an urgent need to develop new technologies to improve the ability to assess reservoir brittleness.

[0003] Existing technologies for evaluating brittleness mainly include the mineral composition method, the elastic parameter method, and the stress-strain method. The mineral composition method evaluates brittleness based on the proportion of brittle minerals such as quartz and carbonates, but neglects mechanical response characteristics. The elastic parameter method inverts dynamic Young's modulus and Poisson's ratio from well logging data, but cannot characterize the mechanical abrupt changes in laminae at the millimeter-centimeter level. The stress-strain method relies on the amount of plastic deformation before rock failure to evaluate brittleness; its physical meaning is clear, but it typically relies on single-point testing and destructive experiments, resulting in high sample preparation costs and inability to be applied in situ.

[0004] Therefore, existing technologies suffer from insufficient accuracy in evaluating the brittleness of shale. Summary of the Invention

[0054] The accompanying drawings have illustrated specific embodiments of this application, which will be described in more detail below. These drawings and descriptions are not intended to limit the scope of the concept in any way, but rather to illustrate the concept of this application to those skilled in the art through reference to specific embodiments. Detailed Implementation

[0055] Exemplary embodiments will now be described in detail, examples of which are illustrated in the accompanying drawings. When the following description relates to the drawings, unless otherwise indicated, the same numbers in different drawings denote the same or similar elements. The embodiments described in the following exemplary embodiments do not represent all embodiments consistent with this application. Rather, they are merely examples of apparatuses and methods consistent with some aspects of this application as detailed in the appended claims.

[0057] Shale oil and gas is an important component of unconventional oil and gas resources, typically stored in reservoirs with low permeability and low porosity, and explored and developed using hydraulic fracturing and horizontal drilling techniques. The core challenge in its exploration and development lies in assessing the fracturability of the reservoir. The shale brittleness index is a key parameter characterizing reservoir fracturability, directly affecting the complexity of the fracture network during hydraulic fracturing. For example, highly brittle shale tends to form network fractures, while low-brittle areas are dominated by single fractures, leading to significant differences in fracturing effectiveness. Therefore, shale reservoir development faces challenges from extreme environments and strong heterogeneity, necessitating the development of new technologies to improve the ability to assess reservoir brittleness.

[0058] Existing technologies for evaluating brittleness include mineral composition methods, elastic parameter methods, and stress-strain methods. Mineral composition methods evaluate brittleness based on the proportion of brittle minerals such as quartz and carbonates, but neglect mechanical response characteristics. Elastic parameter methods invert dynamic Young's modulus and Poisson's ratio from well logging data, but cannot characterize the mechanical abrupt changes in laminae at the millimeter-centimeter level. Stress-strain methods rely on the amount of plastic deformation before rock failure, such as the ratio of residual strength to peak strength, to evaluate brittleness, but typically depend on single-point testing and destructive experiments, resulting in high sample preparation costs and inability to be applied in situ.

[0059] Therefore, existing brittleness assessment methods cannot accurately assess the brittleness of complex shale formations, resulting in insufficient accuracy in shale brittleness assessment.

[0060] To address the aforementioned issues, the core concept of this application is as follows: obtaining core samples from the target reservoir; conducting continuous scratch tests on the core samples to obtain multiple mechanical response indices; and through calculation and processing, obtaining the rock strength brittleness index, rock deformation brittleness index, and energy evolution brittleness index to comprehensively evaluate the overall brittleness index of the shale in the target reservoir, thereby achieving millimeter-centimeter-level continuous brittleness characterization of the mechanical properties of the shale laminar-lithological interface, and improving the accuracy of shale brittleness evaluation from single-point to continuous evaluation.

[0068] S201. Obtain core samples from the target reservoir.

[0069] In this embodiment, the core sample refers to a cylindrical rock specimen obtained directly from the target reservoir using drilling coring technology.

[0070] Obtaining core samples from the target reservoir includes:

[0071] Full-diameter core samples were extracted from underground reservoirs using well core drilling technology.

[0072] Core samples from the target reservoir were cut along the direction perpendicular to the laminae to obtain cut core samples for subsequent analysis and observation. The surface dimensions of the cut core samples were 100mm × 80mm × 70mm, and the cut core samples had smooth, flat surfaces and were elongated.

[0073] Furthermore, the lithology, lithological interfaces, and lamination distribution of the core samples were calibrated to determine the rock type, contact surfaces between different lithologies, and lamination distribution of the core samples.

[0074] S202. Perform continuous scratch tests on the core samples to obtain multiple mechanical response indicators.

[0075] In this embodiment, a scratch testing device is used to perform scratch testing on the cut core sample based on a continuous multi-point scratching method with equal spacing. The scratch test refers to the scratching knife scratching the cut core sample at a constant scratching rate and depth, and the displacement and force data of the scratching knife are recorded in real time to obtain multiple mechanical response indicators; the constant scratching depth is controlled within the millimeter range.

[0076] For example, the parameters for the scratch testing equipment are set as shown in the table below:

[0085] In this embodiment, the rock strength brittleness index is an indicator that quantifies the brittle characteristics of rocks during stress failure. The higher the rock strength brittleness index, the easier the rock is to fracture, making it suitable for reservoir stimulation; the lower the rock strength brittleness index, the stronger the rock's plasticity, resulting in poor fracturing effect. By performing the first calculation based on the mechanical response index, the rock strength brittleness index is obtained, and corresponding mining strategies can be formulated to improve mining efficiency.

[0086] S204. Based on the mechanical response index, a second calculation process is performed to obtain the rock deformation brittleness index.

[0087] In this embodiment, the rock deformation brittleness index is an indicator that quantifies the brittle characteristics of rocks during stress deformation. It is used to describe the transition of rocks from elastic deformation to plastic deformation and reflects the rock reservoir's ability to release instability. Based on the mechanical response index, a second calculation is performed to obtain the rock deformation brittleness index, which can assess the deformation capacity and failure mode of rocks under different stress conditions, predict rock mass deformation, and design stable underground structures, thereby improving the reliability of mining.

[0088] S205. Based on the mechanical response index, a third calculation process is performed to obtain the energy evolution brittleness index.

[0089] In this embodiment, the energy evolution brittleness index is a quantification of brittleness by measuring the balance between energy accumulation and dissipation during rock deformation and failure. Based on the mechanical response index, a third calculation is performed to obtain the energy evolution brittleness index, which can predict the potential risks of rock failure and the scale of energy release, thereby enabling proactive response strategies.

[0090] S206. Based on the rock strength brittleness index, rock deformation brittleness index, and energy evolution brittleness index, determine the comprehensive brittleness index used to evaluate the brittleness of the target reservoir shale.

[0091] In this embodiment, a comprehensive brittleness index for evaluating the brittleness of the target reservoir shale is determined by combining the rock strength brittleness index, the rock deformation brittleness index, and the energy evolution brittleness index. This constructs a high-resolution shale brittleness evaluation system, achieving continuous brittleness characterization of shale laminae and lithological interface mechanical properties at the millimeter to centimeter level, thereby improving the accuracy of shale brittleness evaluation.

[0092] This application provides a refined evaluation method for continuous brittleness index based on scratch testing under true triaxial stress. By processing core samples and performing millimeter-resolution scratch tests, mechanical response indices are obtained. The rock strength brittleness index, rock deformation brittleness index, and energy evolution brittleness index are then calculated sequentially to determine the comprehensive brittleness index used to evaluate the brittleness of the target shale reservoir. This method reduces sample requirements, improves scratch testing efficiency, and achieves continuous brittleness characterization of shale laminae and lithological interfaces at the millimeter to centimeter level. It breaks through the limitations of single-point to continuous evaluation of shale brittleness, constructs a high-resolution shale brittleness evaluation system, provides a reliable geomechanical model for the differentiated parameter design of hydraulic fracturing in shale reservoirs, meets the practicality and efficiency requirements of engineering applications, and provides a basis for improving the benefits of complex reservoir stimulation.

Figure 2 Based on the embodiments, the second calculation process in step S204 above, which involves performing a second calculation based on the mechanical response index to obtain the rock deformation brittleness index, is described in detail. This method includes:

[0106] S501. Determine Young's modulus based on tangential force and scratch depth.

[0107] In this embodiment, the formula for calculating Young's modulus is as follows:

[0108]

[0109] In the formula, E is Young's modulus; F S Δ is the tangential force, in N; h is the marking depth, in mm.

[0110] S502. Determine Poisson's ratio based on the engraving tool width, total height, total width, and scratch depth.

[0111] In this embodiment, the formula for calculating Poisson's ratio is as follows:

[0112]

[0113] In the formula, v is Poisson's ratio; W is the total width of the core sample; H is the total height of the core sample; and h is the indentation depth. This represents the change in the width of the engraving tool, which is the difference between the width of the engraving tool after the core sample is deformed by force and the original width of the engraving tool.

[0114] S503. Determine the rock deformation brittleness index based on Young's modulus and Poisson's ratio.

[0115] In this embodiment, the formula for calculating the rock deformation brittleness index is as follows:

Figure 4 ,like Figure 8 As shown, the mechanical response indicators also include scratch depth, burr width, total height of the core sample, and total width of the core sample; this embodiment... Figure 2 Based on the embodiments, the third calculation process in step S205 above, which involves performing calculations based on mechanical response indices to obtain the energy evolution brittleness index, is described in detail. This method includes:

[0121] S801. Calculate the integral of the tangential force to obtain the total energy required for the scratch.

[0122] In this embodiment, the tangential force varies with the scratch depth. After calculating the rock strength brittleness index and rock deformation brittleness index of the core sample based on the tangential force obtained from continuous scratch testing, since brittle materials accumulate strain energy through elastic deformation and rapidly release most of the energy upon failure, while ductile materials have limited strain energy reservoir force and gradually dissipate energy through plastic deformation, the total energy required for scratching can be calculated by integrating the tangential force. The formula for calculating the total energy required for scratching is as follows:

[0123]

[0124] In the formula, W S The total energy required to create the scratch; L is the maximum scratch depth; x is the scratch depth; F s For tangential force; F s (x) represents the relationship between tangential force and scratch depth.

[0125] S802. Based on the change value of tangential force, the sharp abrupt peak is calculated to extract the brittle energy dissipation.

[0126] In this embodiment, during the scratch test, the core sample accumulates high strain energy during the elastic deformation stage. After the accumulated strain energy reaches its peak, the core sample breaks down, and the crack propagates, rapidly releasing energy. Therefore, brittle energy dissipation can be determined by obtaining the sharp abrupt peak in the tangential force change value. The calculation formula for brittle energy dissipation is as follows:

[0127]

[0128] In the formula, W B It is brittle and energy-consuming; For the xth i The tangential force corresponding to the nth point and the nth The difference in tangential force corresponding to each point; i is the scratch depth indicator; x is the scratch depth.

[0129] Furthermore, such as Figure 9 As shown, the total energy required for scratching is the sum of brittle energy dissipation and additional energy dissipation. Brittle work measures the change in brittle energy dissipation, additional work measures the additional energy dissipation, and total work measures the total energy required for scratching. The trends of brittle work, additional work, and total work are shown below. Figure 10 As shown.

[0130] S803. Based on the total energy required for scratching and the sharp abrupt change peak, extract the brittle energy dissipation and calculate the energy evolution brittleness index.

[0131] In this embodiment, the formula for calculating the energy evolution brittleness index is as follows:

[0132]

[0133] In the formula, BI W W is the energy evolution brittleness index. S The total energy required to scratch; W B It is a brittle energy-consuming process.

[0134] For example, the energy evolution fragility index, such as Figure 11 As shown.

[0135] The continuous brittleness index fine evaluation method based on scratch test under true triaxial stress provided in this application obtains the total energy required for scratching by calculating the integral of tangential force; extracts brittle energy dissipation by calculating sharp abrupt peaks based on the change value of tangential force; and calculates the energy evolution brittleness index based on the total energy required for scratching and the brittle energy dissipation extracted by sharp abrupt peaks. Thus, it predicts the dynamic energy change of rocks under different conditions to optimize engineering design.
