Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of oil and gas exploration and development technology, and in particular to a method, apparatus, equipment and medium for identifying shale facies based on cross-plot technology. Background Technology
[0002] Shale lithofacies are a key factor influencing oil production in shale reservoirs. Shale lithofacies are diverse and highly variable, making their identification challenging. Traditional shale lithofacies identification typically involves core sampling, using mineral composition analysis, organic carbon content measurement, and observation and analysis of rock structure to comprehensively identify the lithofacies. However, this method is only applicable to the cored well sections and has limitations. Existing shale lithofacies identification methods rely solely on lithology (mineral content), reflecting only one aspect of the lithofacies. They identify only four lithofacies types, neglecting important factors in the shale geological environment such as organic matter and rock structure. They fail to reflect other geological characteristics of shale lithofacies besides lithology and require calibration based on existing mineral composition test data, further limiting their effectiveness.
[0003] As can be seen from the above, how to comprehensively identify shale facies and improve the accuracy and efficiency of shale facies identification is a problem that needs to be solved in this field. Summary of the Invention

[0050] The technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0051] Shale lithofacies are a key factor influencing oil production in shale reservoirs. Shale lithofacies are diverse and highly variable, making their identification challenging. Traditional methods typically involve core sampling, using mineral composition analysis, organic carbon content measurement, and observation and analysis of rock structure to comprehensively identify lithofacies. However, this method is only applicable to the cored well sections and has limitations. Existing shale lithofacies identification methods rely solely on lithology (mineral content), reflecting only one aspect of the lithofacies and identifying only four types. This neglects important factors in the shale geological environment, such as organic matter and rock structure, and fails to reflect other geological characteristics of shale lithofacies besides lithology. Furthermore, it requires calibration based on existing mineral composition test data, further limiting its effectiveness. Therefore, a comprehensive and thorough identification of shale lithofacies, improving its accuracy and efficiency, remains a problem to be solved in this field.
[0052] See Figure 1 As shown, this embodiment of the invention discloses a shale lithofacies identification method based on cross-plotting technology, which specifically includes:
[0053] Step S11: Obtain natural gamma data, resistivity data, and acoustic transit time data of the shale facies to be identified.
[0054] Step S12: Using cross plot technology and based on the natural gamma data and the resistivity data, plot the shale lithology cross plot curve, and analyze the shale lithology cross plot curve to obtain the shale lithology.
[0055] In this embodiment, the shale mineral components mainly include clayey, siliceous, and calcareous (including dolomitic) minerals. Based on the minerals with the highest content, shale can be divided into three categories: clayey shale, siliceous shale, and calcareous shale. Shale formations with different mineral contents exhibit different response characteristics on natural gamma and resistivity curves: clayey shale shows high gamma and low resistivity characteristics, siliceous shale shows medium gamma and medium resistivity characteristics, and calcareous shale shows low gamma and high resistivity characteristics. Based on natural gamma and resistivity data, shale lithology cross-reference curves are plotted, such as... Figure 2 As shown, two curves in the shale lithology cross-hatching curve are analyzed to obtain the shale lithology.
[0056] Step S13: Based on the resistivity data and the acoustic transit time data, plot the cross-sectional curves of shale organic properties and shale structure respectively, and analyze the cross-sectional curves of shale organic properties and shale structure respectively to obtain the organic properties and structure of shale.
[0057] In this embodiment, the process of plotting and analyzing the cross-plot curve of shale organic properties is as follows: Using the cross-plot technique and based on the resistivity data and the acoustic transit time data, a resistivity curve and an acoustic transit time curve are plotted; the cross-plot curve of shale organic properties containing the resistivity curve and the acoustic transit time curve is plotted; then, the resistivity curve and the acoustic transit time curve in the cross-plot curve of shale organic properties are analyzed. If the resistivity curve and the acoustic transit time curve overlap, the shale organic properties are determined to be organic-containing shale; if the divergence between the resistivity curve and the acoustic transit time curve is greater than a preset divergence range, the shale organic properties are determined to be organic-rich shale.
[0058] Based on the organic carbon content, shale can be divided into two types: organic-rich and organic-containing. Before the organic matter has evolved to the graphitization stage, its logging response is characterized by high acoustic transit time and high resistivity. The higher the organic carbon content, the higher the acoustic transit time and resistivity values. Plotting the resistivity curve and acoustic transit time curve on the same graph, as shown... Figure 3 As shown, when the resistivity curve and the sonic transit time curve basically overlap, it is shale containing organic matter; when the two curves diverge significantly (high resistivity, high sonic transit time), it is shale rich in organic matter.
[0059] In this embodiment, the process of plotting and analyzing the cross-plot curve of the shale structure is as follows: Using the cross-plot technique and based on the resistivity data and the acoustic transit time data, a resistivity curve and an acoustic transit time curve are plotted; the cross-plot curve of the shale structure containing the resistivity curve and the acoustic transit time curve is plotted; then, the resistivity curve and the acoustic transit time curve in the cross-plot curve of the shale structure are analyzed. If the amplitude change and amplitude difference of the resistivity curve and the acoustic transit time curve meet a preset amplitude condition, the shale structure is determined to be a blocky structure; if the amplitude change and amplitude difference of the resistivity curve and the acoustic transit time curve do not meet the preset amplitude condition, the shale structure is determined to be a layered structure.
[0060] By intersecting resistivity and acoustic transit time curves, the rock structure of shale can be divided into massive and layered types. Plotting resistivity and acoustic transit time curves on the same graph, as shown... Figure 4 As shown, when the resistivity curve and the acoustic time difference curve change gently with a small amplitude difference between the curves, it is a blocky structure; when the two curves change in a sawtooth pattern with a large amplitude difference between the curves, it is a layered structure.
[0061] Step S14: Use the shale lithology cross-plot curve, the shale organic property cross-plot curve, and the shale structure cross-plot curve to perform a comprehensive analysis of the shale lithology, the shale organic property, and the shale structure to obtain the analysis results.
[0062] Step S15: Identify the shale facies to be identified based on the analysis results to obtain shale facies identification results.
[0063] This application employs cross-plot technology and, based on natural gamma ray data, resistivity data, and sonic transit time data of the shale facies to be identified, plots pairwise cross-plot curves for shale lithology, shale organic properties, and shale structure. These curves are then used to comprehensively analyze shale mineral composition, structure, and organic carbon (i.e., shale lithology, shale organic properties, and shale structure). Finally, the comprehensive analysis results are used to identify the shale facies. This application utilizes well logging cross-plot technology to identify shale facies conditions in a simple manner, requiring only conventional well logging data, without the need for special logging projects or core calibration. It is fast, continuous, and reliable, and can identify facies encompassing lithology, structure, and organic matter, demonstrating strong comprehensiveness and aligning with current understanding of shale oil geological evaluation, thus providing an indicative role in shale oil and gas discovery. The specific process is as follows... Figure 5As shown, (1) Shale lithology cross-plots are plotted based on natural gamma data and resistivity data; shale organic property cross-plots are plotted based on resistivity data and sonic transit time data; shale structure cross-plots are plotted based on resistivity data and sonic transit time data; (2) Shale lithology, shale organic property cross-plots and shale structure cross-plots are used to conduct a comprehensive analysis of shale lithology, shale organic property and shale structure, and the analysis results are obtained; (3) The shale facies to be identified is identified according to the analysis results, and the shale facies identification results are obtained.
[0064] In this embodiment, natural gamma data, resistivity data, and acoustic transit time data of the shale facies to be identified are acquired. Cross-plotting techniques are used to plot shale lithology cross-plot curves based on the natural gamma data and resistivity data. These curves are then analyzed to obtain the shale lithology. Cross-plot curves of shale organic properties and shale structure are plotted based on the resistivity data and acoustic transit time data, respectively. These curves are then analyzed to obtain the shale organic properties and shale structure. A comprehensive analysis of the shale lithology, organic properties, and structure is performed using the shale lithology cross-plot curves, organic property cross-plot curves, and structure cross-plot curves to obtain the analysis results. Based on the analysis results, the shale facies to be identified is then determined to obtain the shale facies identification result. This application employs cross-plot technology and, based on natural gamma data, resistivity data, and sonic transit time data of the shale facies to be identified, plots shale lithology cross-plots, shale organic property cross-plots, and shale structure cross-plots. This enables rapid and continuous identification of shale facies. The application comprehensively analyzes shale lithology, organic properties, and structure using these cross-plots. Finally, based on the analysis results, the shale facies to be identified is determined, yielding shale facies identification results. The identified facies encompasses lithology, structure, and organic matter, providing a comprehensive and holistic identification of shale facies. This approach aligns with current understanding of facies in shale oil geological evaluation, serves as an indicator for shale oil and gas discovery, and improves the accuracy and efficiency of shale facies identification.
[0065] See Figure 6 As shown, this embodiment of the invention discloses a shale lithofacies identification method based on cross-plotting technology, which specifically includes:
[0066] Step S21: Obtain natural gamma data, resistivity data, and acoustic transit time data of the shale facies to be identified.
[0067] Step S32: Using cross plotting technology, natural gamma curves and resistivity curves are plotted based on the natural gamma data and the resistivity data, respectively. A cross plotting curve of the shale lithology including the natural gamma curve and the resistivity curve is plotted. The natural gamma curve and the resistivity curve in the cross plotting curve of the shale lithology are analyzed to obtain the shale lithology.
[0068] In this embodiment, after plotting the shale lithology cross-hatching curve including the natural gamma curve and the resistivity curve, the natural gamma curve and the resistivity curve in the shale lithology cross-hatching curve are analyzed. If the natural gamma curve and the resistivity curve show a positive divergence, the shale lithology is determined to be calcareous shale; if the natural gamma curve and the resistivity curve show a negative divergence, the shale lithology is determined to be clayey shale; if the natural gamma curve and the resistivity curve overlap, the shale lithology is determined to be siliceous shale. Figure 2 As shown, when the two curves diverge in a positive direction (resistivity is to the right of the natural gamma), it is argillaceous shale; when the two curves diverge in a negative direction (resistivity is to the left of the natural gamma), it is clayey rock; and when the two curves basically overlap, it is siliceous shale.
[0069] Step S23: Based on the resistivity data and the acoustic transit time data, plot the cross-sectional curves of shale organic properties and shale structure, respectively, and analyze the cross-sectional curves of shale organic properties and shale structure to obtain the organic properties and structure of shale.
[0070] Step S24: Use the shale lithology cross-plot curve, the shale organic property cross-plot curve, and the shale structure cross-plot curve to perform a comprehensive analysis of the shale lithology, the shale organic property, and the shale structure to obtain the analysis results.
[0071] Step S25: Use cross-plot technology and identify the shale facies to be identified based on the analysis results; the types of shale facies to be identified include organic-rich massive clayey facies, organic-rich massive siliceous facies, organic-rich massive limestone facies, organic-containing massive clayey facies, organic-containing massive siliceous facies, organic-containing massive limestone facies, organic-rich layered clayey facies, organic-rich layered siliceous facies, organic-rich layered limestone facies, organic-containing layered clayey facies, organic-containing layered siliceous facies, and organic-containing layered limestone facies.
[0072] Using cross-plotting techniques, three lithofacies were identified based on differences in mineral composition: clayey shale, calcareous shale, and siliceous shale. Based on differences in organic matter abundance, two lithofacies were identified: organic-rich shale and organic-containing shale. Based on differences in rock structure, two lithofacies were identified: massive shale and layered shale. Combining these three lithofacies factors, a total of twelve lithofacies were identified. The types of shale lithofacies are shown in Table 1. Among them, the favorable lithofacies are organic-rich layered siliceous shale and organic-rich layered calcareous shale.

[0074]
[0075] Taking a shale oil well (HYX well) in a certain depression as an example, the natural gamma ray curve, shallow and deep lateral resistivity curves, and sonic transit time curves were plotted using conventional logging. The process is as follows: 1. Analyze the shale lithology of HYX well through cross-plotting of natural gamma ray and resistivity curves: Plot the natural gamma ray and deep lateral resistivity curves in the same channel, where the natural gamma ray curve boundary value is -50 to 150 API, and the deep lateral resistivity boundary value is 0.2 to 200 Ω·m; 2. Analyze the organic characteristics of HYX well shale through cross-plotting of resistivity and sonic transit time curves: Plot the deep lateral resistivity and sonic transit time curves in the same channel, where the sonic transit time curve boundary value is 482 to -10 μs / m, and the deep lateral resistivity boundary value is 0.2 μs / m. ~200Ω·m; 3. Analysis of the rock structure of HYX well shale through resistivity and sonic transit time curve cross-plotting: Deep lateral resistivity and sonic transit time curves are plotted in the same trace, with the sonic transit time curve edge value being 150~450μs / m and the deep lateral resistivity edge value being 0.2~2000Ω·m; 4. Comprehensive analysis of HYX well shale lithofacies: Analysis of lithology, organic properties, and structural characteristics of the target layer shale of HYX well based on the cross-plotting of natural gamma, resistivity, and sonic transit time curves; 5. Favorable lithofacies analysis of HYX well shale: From Figure 7 It is evident that the favorable lithofacies of the HYX well, including organic-rich layered siliceous facies and organic-rich layered calcareous facies, are mainly concentrated in the 4075-4109 meter interval. In 2023, the oil company drilled the horizontal well HYXHF with a target window of 4086-4104 meters. The highest tested daily oil production was 52.3 tons, and the stable daily oil production was 36 tons, reflecting the reliability of the favorable lithofacies conclusions drawn from the cross-plot technology of the HYX well. Figure 7 This includes identifying the lithology of the target shale layer through curve intersection, identifying the organic carbon content of the target shale layer through curve intersection, identifying the rock structure of the target shale layer through curve intersection, and conducting a comprehensive analysis of the lithofacies of the target shale layer in the HYX well.
[0076] In this embodiment, natural gamma data, resistivity data, and acoustic transit time data of the shale facies to be identified are acquired. Cross-plotting techniques are used to plot shale lithology cross-plot curves based on the natural gamma data and resistivity data. These curves are then analyzed to obtain the shale lithology. Cross-plot curves of shale organic properties and shale structure are plotted based on the resistivity data and acoustic transit time data, respectively. These curves are then analyzed to obtain the shale organic properties and shale structure. A comprehensive analysis of the shale lithology, organic properties, and structure is performed using the shale lithology cross-plot curves, organic property cross-plot curves, and structure cross-plot curves to obtain the analysis results. Based on the analysis results, the shale facies to be identified is then determined to obtain the shale facies identification result. This application employs cross-plot technology and, based on natural gamma data, resistivity data, and sonic transit time data of the shale facies to be identified, plots shale lithology cross-plots, shale organic property cross-plots, and shale structure cross-plots. This enables rapid and continuous identification of shale facies. The application comprehensively analyzes shale lithology, organic properties, and structure using these cross-plots. Finally, based on the analysis results, the shale facies to be identified is determined, yielding shale facies identification results. The identified facies encompasses lithology, structure, and organic matter, providing a comprehensive and holistic identification of shale facies. This approach aligns with current understanding of facies in shale oil geological evaluation, serves as an indicator for shale oil and gas discovery, and improves the accuracy and efficiency of shale facies identification.
