[0021] In existing multilayer carbon dioxide injection technologies, the design of injection layer parameters largely relies on empirical judgment, making it difficult to accurately determine the optimal number of layers and spacing based on geological characteristics. The optimization of injection port angles lacks quantitative methods, easily leading to uneven flow distribution. Insufficient analysis of the coupled effects of porosity evolution and stress field changes caused by carbon dioxide dissolution between layers often results in interlayer crossflow and pressure imbalance. Furthermore, the control strategies are mostly static, unable to dynamically adapt to changes in formation parameters, leading to low storage efficiency and high engineering risks, thus limiting the stability and economic viability of large-scale carbon sequestration.

[0022] Therefore, this application provides a dynamic control method for multilayer carbon dioxide injection, which solves the above-mentioned problems in the prior art, can accurately control multilayer injection parameters, improve storage efficiency and reduce interlayer risks.

[0023] The preferred embodiments of this application are 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 this application. Furthermore, the embodiments and features in the embodiments of this application can be combined with each other without conflict.

[0024] Figure 2 This is a schematic flowchart illustrating a multi-layered dynamic control method for carbon dioxide injection provided in an embodiment of this application. Figure 2 As shown, the method may include: Step S210: Based on the acquired geological parameters, determine the optimal number of layers and the layer spacing for multi-layer injection, and obtain at least 2 injection layers.

[0025] Among them, geological parameters include parameters such as formation permeability, porosity, and distribution of geostress field.

[0026] Specifically, three-dimensional geological parameters of the target formation are obtained through 3D seismic exploration and well logging technologies, including vertical permeability distribution, porosity, and geostress field distribution. For example, array induction logging tools are used to collect formation permeability data with a resolution of 0.1m; dipole acoustic logging is used to obtain the principal direction and magnitude of the geostress field with an error range of ≤5%. The raw data is standardized to eliminate the influence of dimensions, forming an input matrix suitable for machine learning.

[0027] Based on the vertical permeability, porosity, and stress field distribution of the formations, a support vector machine (SVM) classification algorithm is used to perform hierarchical clustering of the formations, yielding clustering results. The clustering results include the permeability difference between potential injection layers. Specifically, an SVM classification model is constructed using a radial basis function (RBF) kernel, with vertical formation parameters (permeability, porosity, and stress) as input features. The penalty parameter C and kernel function parameter γ are optimized through grid search. During the clustering process, the model automatically identifies formation units with similar geological characteristics and outputs the permeability difference index for each potential injection layer. The permeability difference is defined as the ratio of the difference in the mean permeability of adjacent potential layers to the average permeability.

[0028] When the permeability difference exceeds the preset threshold, the target number of layers for multi-layer injection is determined. This can be understood as the geological conditions suitable for multi-layer injection being determined when the permeability difference exceeds the preset threshold (e.g., 0.6), thus avoiding the risk of crossflow due to too small permeability differences between layers, or uneven injection efficiency due to too large differences.

[0029] Based on the porosity and geostress field distribution of each layer, the interlayer spacing is determined. Specifically, based on the clustering results, when the permeability difference meets the threshold condition, the optimal number of injection layers is determined with the optimization objectives of minimizing the number of layers and minimizing interlayer interference. For example, after SVM clustering of exploration data from an oilfield, three groups of formations with significant permeability differences were identified (differences of 0.72 and 0.65, respectively), and a three-layer unified injection scheme was finally determined.

[0030] Furthermore, determining the interlayer spacing requires simultaneously satisfying two constraints: A. Geological stability constraints: Based on the distribution of the geostress field, the interlayer spacing must be greater than 1.5 times the thickness of the geostress concentration zone to avoid interlayer shear failure caused by injection pressure; B. Independence of seepage constraint: According to Darcy's law, the interlayer spacing must be greater than the diffusion radius of carbon dioxide in the target formation (calculated by permeability, porosity, and injection pressure) to ensure that there is no significant overlap between the injection areas of each layer. For example, for a medium-permeability layer (permeability 50mD) at an injection pressure of 8MPa, the diffusion radius is calculated to be 20m, and the interlayer spacing is finally determined to be 30m (1.5 times the diffusion radius).

[0031] This application improves the accuracy of layer number determination through data-driven clustering algorithms, enhances the matching degree between layer spacing design and actual formation conditions, and controls the interlayer pressure difference within 0.3 MPa (compared to 1.2 MPa in the traditional scheme) after adopting this scheme, effectively reducing the risk of crossflow and improving the storage efficiency.

[0032] Step S220: Calculate the allowable pressure difference between layers based on geological parameters and the length of the injection well, combined with seepage mechanics formulas, and determine the spatial distribution parameters of each injection layer.

[0033] Specifically, based on geological parameters and the length of the injection well, the allowable interlayer pressure difference is calculated using seepage mechanics formulas, including: The configured differential pressure algorithm is used to calculate the geological parameters and obtain the allowable differential pressure between layers.

[0034] The differential pressure algorithm is as follows:

[0035] Where K is the average formation permeability (mD), obtained through 3D seismic inversion and core experiments; h is the effective thickness of the injection layer (m), determined by well logging curves; The maximum injection flow rate (cubic meters / day) for a single well is determined based on the engineering design. is the viscosity of carbon dioxide fluid (mPa•s), determined by PVT testing with varying temperature and pressure; B is the volume coefficient, dimensionless. The discharge radius (m) is taken as 1 / 2 of the influence range of the injection well; Let be the wellbore radius (m).

[0036] For example: A certain injection well section has a permeability of 80mD, an effective thickness of 15m, an injection flow rate of 5000 cubic meters / day, a carbon dioxide viscosity of 0.08mPa•s, a discharge radius of 100m, and a wellbore radius of 0.1m. The calculated allowable pressure difference between layers is 1.2MPa, meaning that the pressure difference between adjacent injection layers must not exceed this value to avoid crossflow.

[0037] Determine the spatial distribution parameters of each injection layer, including: Based on geological parameters such as formation permeability, fluid viscosity, and injection well length, the allowable inter-layer pressure difference is determined. Using the interlayer allowable pressure difference as a constraint, and combining the lateral extension range and longitudinal depth of each injection layer, the spatial distribution parameters of each injection layer are determined; the spatial distribution parameters include the lateral coverage radius and longitudinal depth range of each injection layer.

[0038] Furthermore, the lateral coverage radius R of a single well is determined using the steady-state radial seepage formula:

[0039] This radius characterizes the effective diffusion range of carbon dioxide under the target pressure differential. For example, in the above embodiment, the calculated lateral coverage radius is 85m, meaning the lateral distribution parameters of the injection layer are set as a circular area with a radius of 85m centered on the wellbore.

[0040] Based on the distribution of the geostress field and the layer spacing d, the following must be satisfied in the longitudinal depth range: Upper boundary: ≥d distance from the bottom of the previous injection layer; Lower boundary: ≥d distance from the top of the next injection layer; At the same time, avoid areas of concentrated ground stress (such as within 20m above and below fault zones).

[0041] For example, in a three-layer unified injection scheme, the depth of the middle layer is 1200m and the layer interval is 30m. Then its longitudinal depth range is determined to be 1185m~1215m (extending 15m both vertically and horizontally).

[0042] In some embodiments, the constraints further include: Engineering constraints: The length L of the gas injection well must meet the following requirements. Where n is the number of layers. Let the effective thickness of the i-th injection layer be such that the wellbore can cover all injection layers; Flow constraint: Lateral coverage radius of each injection layer Ri The requirement is that (Ri≤0.8×well spacing / 2) must be met to avoid overlap of injection areas between adjacent wells; Dynamic correction: If the measured injection pressure exceeds... 80% of the lateral coverage radius is corrected in real time through a digital twin model, for example, by reducing R by 10% to 15%.

[0043] Step S230: Determine the inlet angle of the injection port corresponding to each injection layer using a genetic algorithm.

[0044] The inlet angle of the injection port includes the dip angle (the angle with the horizontal plane) and the azimuth angle (the angle with the main permeability direction of the formation). The range of variation needs to be limited in conjunction with the spatial distribution parameters of the injection layer and the geological permeability characteristics. Specifically, step S231: Determine the range of angle variation based on the spatial distribution parameters and geological permeability of each injection layer; Based on the longitudinal depth range of the injection layer, the dip angle must ensure that the carbon dioxide injection trajectory falls within the longitudinal depth range of the target layer. For example, if the longitudinal depth range of a certain injection layer is 1185m~1215m (well depth reference level 1000m), then the dip angle θ satisfies: ,in, θ is the length of the horizontal section of the gas injection well (unit: m), and θ is the inclination angle of the injection port (unit: °). The calculated inclination angle range is 20.5°~23.3°.

[0045] Based on the anisotropy of geological permeability (the direction of the main permeability is determined by well logging data), the azimuth angle φ needs to deviate from the direction of the main permeability by ≤30° (to improve the diffusion efficiency of carbon dioxide along the high permeability direction). For example, if the main permeability direction of a certain formation is 45° east of north, then the azimuth angle range is limited to 15°~75° (east of north).

[0046] Step S232: Use a genetic algorithm to iteratively optimize the range of angle variables to obtain the optimal inlet angle of the injection port corresponding to each injection layer.

[0047] Specifically, a real-number encoding method is used to encode the tilt angle of each injection layer ( ) and azimuth ( The chromosomes consist of 2n dimensions (n ​​being the number of injection layers). The initial population size is set to 50, and chromosomes that satisfy the above angle range are randomly generated to ensure population diversity.

[0048] First, with the uniformity of carbon dioxide injection flow rate in each injection layer as the optimization objective, the fitness function F is defined as:

[0049] in, The injection flow rate of the i-th layer is calculated through simulation using a digital twin model, with input parameters including angle, permeability, and porosity. The average flow rate is F. The closer F is to 1, the better the flow uniformity.

[0050] Then, a tournament selection method is used to randomly select 5 individuals to compete, and the one with the highest fitness enters the next generation to preserve superior genes; Arithmetic crossover is used to generate offspring from selected parent chromosomes with a crossover probability of 0.8. For example, for the tilt gene:

[0051] in, The angle of inclination (in degrees) of the offspring after crossover, where α is a random number between 0 and 1 (controlling the proportion of parental gene contribution). , These are the tilt angles of the two parent generations.

[0052] The gene is perturbed with a mutation probability of 0.05. The angle after mutation must still be within the preset range (if the tilt angle exceeds the range, it is truncated to the boundary value).

[0053] When the mean change of the fitness function is ≤0.001 for 10 consecutive generations, or when the number of iterations reaches 100 generations, the optimization is terminated, and the angle parameters corresponding to the current best chromosome are output.

[0054] For example, consider a three-tier unified injection system: The injection layer 1 has a longitudinal depth of 1000~1030m, a main permeability direction of 30° north of east, a dip angle range of 18°~22°, and an azimuth angle range of 0°~60°. The parameters of injection layers 2 and 3 are similar, and the angle ranges are adapted to their depth range and permeability direction, respectively.

[0055] Genetic algorithm optimization parameters: population size 50, crossover probability 0.8, mutation probability 0.05, convergence after 85 generations. After optimization, the flow deviation of each layer decreased from the initial ±25% to ±8%, the fitness function value increased from 0.62 to 0.92, and the optimal injection port angle was: Layer 1: Inclination angle 20.1°, azimuth angle 32.5°; Layer 2: Inclination angle 25.3°, azimuth angle 35.2°; Layer 3: Inclination angle 28.7°, azimuth angle 31.8°.

[0056] Step S240: Based on the configured multi-field coupling model, analyze the coupling influence coefficient of porosity change rate and stress field change between each injection layer.

[0057] Specifically, step S241 involves configuring the coupling parameters of the multi-field coupling model based on the geological parameters and injection parameters of each injection layer. Geological parameters may also include initial porosity. ϕ 0, permeability K0, rock elastic modulus E Poisson's ratio (ν) and mineral content (C) carb (e.g., the proportion of carbonate rocks); Injection parameters may include carbon dioxide injection pressure P inj Injection rate Qinj Solubility of carbon dioxide in formation water (S) CO2 , reaction rate constant k rxn (Determined through indoor core dissolution experiments).

[0058] Coupling parameters include: the porosity increment coefficient due to mineral dissolution. Permeability correction factor and Biot coefficient (Characteristics representing the coupling of seepage and stress) .

[0059] Step S242: Using a numerical iteration method, the coupling parameters of the multi-field coupling model are processed to obtain the porosity change rate, stress disturbance range, and coupling influence coefficient between each injection layer.

[0060] Multi-field coupling solution using finite element software: Based on the modified Langmuir kinetic equation, the dissolution reaction rate of carbon dioxide with carbonate rocks is: ,in, This represents the saturation concentration of carbon dioxide under the current temperature and pressure conditions. This represents the actual dissolution concentration. The mineral dissolution amount in each injection layer is obtained through iterative calculations at a time step Δt. (Unit: kg / cubic meter).

[0061] According to the porosity increment coefficient Determine the porosity change rate , Among them, elastic deformation porosity , This represents the bulk modulus of the rock.

[0062] Permeability after porosity update: Establish the seepage equation: ; Through pressure boundary conditions (injection pressure) Initial formation pressure ), calculate the seepage pressure distribution and flow rate Q of each layer. i Output interlayer pressure difference .

[0063] Based on the effective stress principle, formation stress , of which, total stress Determined from initial data of the geostress field. The formation displacement u and stress components are solved using the equations of elasticity. Determine the range of stress disturbance (with the area where the principal stress change exceeds 5% as the boundary).

[0064] Define the interlayer coupling influence coefficient , This coefficient quantifies the bidirectional coupling strength between interlayer porosity variation and stress disturbance. The larger the value, the more significant the interlayer interaction.

[0065] In some embodiments, the multi-field coupling model may include a chemical field module, a porosity evolution module, a seepage field module, and a stress field module.

[0066] The chemical field module is used to calculate the dissolution reaction rate of carbon dioxide with formation minerals (such as carbonate rocks) based on the modified Langmuir kinetic equation, and to obtain the amount of mineral dissolution in each injection layer, providing basic data for subsequent porosity change calculations. The porosity evolution module combines the mineral dissolution amount output by the chemical field module with the coupling parameter β, superimposed with the porosity change caused by elastic deformation, calculates the porosity change rate of each injection layer, and dynamically updates the porosity parameters. The seepage field module is used to correct the permeability based on the porosity updated by the porosity evolution module, and then establish the seepage equation based on Darcy's law to solve the pressure distribution, flow rate and interlayer pressure difference of each injection layer. The stress field module is used to solve for formation displacement and stress components based on the effective stress principle and combined with the pressure data from the seepage field module, to determine the range of stress disturbance (the area where the principal stress changes by more than 5%), and to quantify the impact of stress field changes on formation stability.

[0067] Step S250: Based on the porosity change rate and coupling influence coefficient, the model predictive control algorithm is used to dynamically adjust the opening of the injection port of each layer, and the delayed injection strategy is determined according to the configured formation permeability classification standard.

[0068] Specifically, the opening degree of the injection port of each injection layer is adjusted. Real-time traffic and pressure Constructed as state-space equations: Equations of state:

[0069] Output equation: , where the state vector Control vector A, B, and C are the model coefficient matrices (identified offline through a multi-field coupling model). , This refers to process noise and measurement noise.

[0070] porosity change rate and coupling influence coefficient Construct the objective function using the weighting factors:

[0071] Where P is the prediction time domain and M is the control time domain; This is the reference value for the flow rate of the i-th layer. The historical average flow rate; , , These are the weighting coefficients.

[0072] Based on the configured opening degree constraints, flow rate constraints, and adjustment rate constraints, a quadratic programming (QP) solver is used for online optimization to obtain the optimal opening degree sequence for the next M steps.

[0073] Based on the configured formation permeability classification criteria, the delayed injection strategy can be determined, which may include: Table 1 shows the formation permeability classification standard. (See Table 1 for details.) Table 1

[0074] Delay time The calculation formula is:

[0075] in, The baseline delay time is 10 minutes. The permeability weighting coefficient for the i-th layer; It is the sum of the coupling influence coefficients between the i-th layer and other layers.

[0076] The delay is initiated when any of the following conditions are met: The pressure of the preferentially injected layer reaches 1.1 times the initial pressure: ; The pressure difference between adjacent floors exceeds 80% of the allowable pressure difference between floors: ; Compared with traditional control methods, this approach can improve flow control accuracy and reduce the number of times interlayer pressure difference exceeds the limit.

[0077] This application provides a dynamic control method for multi-layer carbon dioxide injection. The method includes: determining the optimal number of layers and the interlayer spacing based on acquired geological parameters, resulting in multiple injection layers; calculating the allowable interlayer pressure difference based on geological parameters and injection well length, combined with seepage mechanics formulas, and determining the spatial distribution parameters of each injection layer; determining the inlet angle of the injection port corresponding to each injection layer; analyzing the coupling influence coefficient of porosity change rate and stress field change between injection layers; dynamically adjusting the injection port opening of each layer using a model predictive control algorithm; and determining a delayed injection strategy based on a configured formation permeability classification standard.
