Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The application belongs to the technical field of oil and gas field development, and particularly relates to a method for obtaining fracture characteristic parameters of volume fracturing of a horizontal well in a tight sandstone gas reservoir. BACKGROUND

[0002] China is rich in tight sandstone gas resources, and the tight gas represented by the Upper Triassic Xujiahe Formation and the Jurassic Shaximiao Formation is the most realistic and important position for increasing reserves and production of natural gas on a large scale. With the focus on the development of tight gas, the development technology system has gradually matured. In order to solve the difficulty of realizing large-scale commercial production caused by low pore pressure, low porosity and low permeability of tight reservoirs, hydraulic fracturing stimulation technology is introduced, and remarkable results have been achieved in field construction.

[0003] The fractures formed by fracturing are high-speed channels for the seepage of oil and gas from the formation to the wellbore, and the stimulation effect of hydraulic fracturing depends largely on the effect of the fractures after fracturing. In the evaluation method of the stimulation effect after fracturing, the reservoir stimulation effect is evaluated through test production, production pressure difference, and test analysis data, and such evaluation methods can only evaluate the fracturing effect after the oil test is completed, and the cycle of obtaining evaluation data is long and the time is long.

[0004] At present, it is an urgent problem for those skilled in the art to provide an efficient fracturing fracture parameter obtaining method. SUMMARY

[0005] The purpose of the present application is to quantitatively characterize the fracture morphology and characteristic parameters, and to provide a method for obtaining fracture characteristic parameters of volume fracturing of a horizontal well in a tight sandstone gas reservoir from the perspective of fracturing engineering parameters. The fracture morphology and characteristic parameters can be obtained after the field fracturing construction is completed, thereby providing support for the evaluation of the stimulation effect of fracturing.

[0006] To achieve the above purpose, the technical scheme adopted by the present application is as follows:

[0007] A method for obtaining fracture characteristic parameters of volume fracturing of a horizontal well in a tight sandstone gas reservoir, comprising the following steps:

[0008] Step S10: obtaining the relationship between pump pressure, displacement and sand ratio changing with time based on the fracturing construction curve.

[0009] Step S20: judging the effectiveness of fracturing construction.

[0010] Step S30: obtaining fracturing implementation well geology parameters, completion parameters and construction parameters, and establishing a horizontal well fracturing geology model, a stress field model and a wellbore model.

[0011] Step S40: inputting fracturing pump injection program parameters based on the fracturing construction bulletin.

[0012] Step S50, based on the geological parameters, completion parameters, construction parameters, solve the fracture characteristics parameters.

[0013] Further, the fracturing construction effectiveness judgment in step S20 is based on:

[0014] The change relationship between pump pressure and displacement in the preflush stage is used to judge the formation breaking point: the pump pressure rapidly decreases, and the displacement increases; the pump pressure is constant, and the displacement increases; the displacement is constant, and the pump pressure rapidly decreases after rising.

[0015] The change relationship between the sand-carrying liquid volume, pump pressure and displacement in the sand-carrying liquid stage is used to judge the fracture extension: the pump pressure shows a steady trend when the displacement is constant, indicating that the fracture extends normally; the pump pressure suddenly rises when the displacement is constant, indicating that the fracture may encounter a high stress zone or a natural fracture zone during the extension process, which hinders the extension of the fracture; the pump pressure suddenly decreases when the displacement is constant, indicating that the fracture may encounter a large fracture zone or a high filtration zone during the extension process, which affects the fracture fluid fracturing efficiency.

[0016] The two are combined to judge the fracturing effectiveness.

[0017] Further, the obtaining of the geological parameters of the fracturing well in step S30 includes: gas reservoir temperature, pressure, porosity, permeability, water saturation, reservoir thickness, rock compression coefficient, geological stratification depth, stress, stress gradient, Young's modulus, Poisson's ratio, fracture toughness, filtration coefficient.

[0018] The completion parameters include: well structure parameters, perforation position, perforation number, perforation diameter.

[0019] The fracturing construction parameters include: fracturing fluid type and performance, proppant type and performance.

[0020] Further, the fracturing pump injection program parameters in step S40 include: sand-carrying liquid volume, proppant concentration, displacement, pump injection time, and well material type.

[0021] Further, the solving of the fracturing fracture characteristic parameters in step S50 is based on computer simulation, and the simulation software is used to invert the fracturing construction process.

[0022] Further, the fracturing fracture characteristic parameters in step S50 include: fracture length, fracture width, flow conductivity, and reservoir reconstruction volume.

[0023] The application also provides a computer device, which comprises a processor and a memory, and the memory stores a computer program, and the processor implements the above-mentioned measurement method when executing the computer program.

[0024] The application further provides a computer readable storage medium, which stores a computer program, and the computer program is executed by a processor to implement the method.

[0025] In summary, compared with the prior art, the application has at least the following beneficial effects:

[0026] The application determines fracturing effectiveness based on fracturing operation curves, and establishes a method for obtaining fracture characteristic parameters based on fracture inversion simulation, to solve fracture length, fracture width, fracture conductivity, and reservoir reconstruction volume, and other fracture characteristic parameters such as fracture height and proppant placement concentration can also be solved according to needs. The method can intuitively and quantitatively evaluate fractures, and provide a certain reference for fracturing fracture effect evaluation and operation parameter optimization of a horizontal well in a tight sandstone gas reservoir.
