TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of oil and gas field development, and particularly relates to a calculation method of adsorption amount of confined fluid in nano-pore based on state equation. BACKGROUND
[0002] Shale gas is one of the important unconventional resources. The pore of shale reservoir reaches nanometer level, and the adsorbed gas in the pore accounts for a high proportion. The phase state characteristics of confined fluid in nano-pore are different from those of free fluid in bulk phase. In the nano-pore, free fluid and confined fluid may exist simultaneously. The confined fluid includes adsorbed phase and condensate phase, wherein the adsorbed phase is generated by adsorption of the pore wall, and the condensate phase is generated by capillary condensation. Therefore, it is of great significance to establish a calculation and evaluation method for predicting the adsorption amount of confined fluid in nano-pore for efficient development of shale gas reservoirs.
[0003] At present, domestic and foreign scholars have carried out a large amount of research on fluid adsorption of shale gas reservoirs, mainly by experimental test and molecular simulation. The experimental measurement is time-consuming and laborious, and cannot quickly and accurately obtain the adsorption amount of shale gas reservoir fluid. The molecular simulation can only characterize small-scale shale models, and it is difficult to calculate the fluid adsorption amount in shale pores above 10 nm, and a large amount of calculation time is required. In addition, the current calculation and evaluation method of adsorption amount of confined fluid under nano-limiting conditions cannot be used to describe the adsorption behavior of confined fluid, and the application range of the conventional model is limited. Therefore, it is urgent to establish a new calculation and evaluation method of adsorption amount of confined fluid in nano-pore of shale gas reservoir, so as to realize the rapid and accurate calculation of the adsorption amount of confined fluid in nano-pore, and provide technical support for efficient development of shale gas reservoirs.
