Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of rock physics technology and relates to a method, system, device and medium for obtaining complex conductivity based on digital core technology. Background Technology
[0002] Excited polarization, as an important component of electromagnetic exploration, has been widely applied in oil and gas resource exploration, mineral prospecting, environmental monitoring, hydrogeophysics, and biogeophysics. The fundamental reason for the low-frequency excited polarization effect in saturated porous media without metallic minerals is the ion movement generated at the solid / liquid interface under the influence of an external electric field. The ion double layer consists of the Stern layer and the diffusion layer. The dominant polarization mechanism differs across frequency bands. When the frequency is below 100 Hz, the migration and concentration diffusion of bound ions in the Stern layer dominate the polarization. Currently, two polarization mechanisms exist in this frequency band: electrochemical polarization and film polarization.
[0003] In recent years, the simulation of transport characteristics based on digital core technology has been widely developed. In the field of rock electrical properties, numerical simulation studies of DC electric fields and medium-to-high frequency electric fields have been mainly carried out. These studies target porous media with different lithologies and physical properties, including shale, sandstone, and carbonate rocks. The three-dimensional digital cores used are either obtained through CT scans or generated through numerical reconstruction algorithms. In addition, some scholars have simulated the effects of fractures and saturation on the electrical properties of rocks using the successive random addition method or mathematical morphology method. However, research on numerical simulation methods for low-frequency induced polarization effects is relatively limited. Until 2017, some scholars proposed a numerical simulation method for induced polarization effects at the pore scale and compared it with glass microsphere experiments, verifying the correctness of the method. Foreign scholars have also used random pore network models to numerically calculate the complex conductivity of sandstone. These numerical simulation works provide technical support for discussing the influence of structural parameters on induced polarization effects.

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 should fall within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0016] It should be noted that the terms "first," "second," etc., in the specification, claims, and accompanying drawings of this invention are used to distinguish similar objects and are not necessarily used to describe a specific order or sequence. It should be understood that such data can be interchanged where appropriate so that the embodiments of the invention described herein can be implemented in orders other than those illustrated or described herein. Furthermore, the terms "comprising" and "having," and any variations thereof, are intended to cover a non-exclusive inclusion; for example, a process, method, system, product, or apparatus that comprises a series of steps or units is not necessarily limited to those steps or units explicitly listed, but may include other steps or units not explicitly listed or inherent to such processes, methods, products, or apparatus.
[0017] The present invention will now be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings: See Figure 13 This invention discloses a method for obtaining complex conductivity based on digital core technology, comprising the following steps: S1. Establish sedimentary and compaction models with similar pore structures to sedimentary rocks. The specific steps are as follows: Within a defined area, particles of different sizes are sequentially deposited to generate a particle accumulation with porous structure characteristics, thus obtaining a sedimentation model. A compaction model is obtained by performing compaction simulation on the sedimentation model body.
[0018] When generating a deposition model using the process method, only the final equilibrium position of the particles is considered. In compaction simulation, all particles are assumed to be spherical rigid bodies, meaning that their volume and shape do not change during compaction, and particle rotation and breakage are not considered.
[0019] S2. Obtain the mean particle size, porosity, and volume ratio per unit pore surface area for both the deposition model and the compaction model; S3. Obtain the equivalent particle size of the sedimentation model and the compaction model based on the mean particle size, porosity, and unit pore surface area to volume ratio of the sedimentation model and the compaction model; Preferably, the steps for obtaining the equivalent grain size of the deposition model are as follows: The mean grain size of the deposition model is the equivalent grain size.
[0020] Preferably, the formula for obtaining the equivalent particle size of the compaction model is as follows:
[0021] in, For equivalent particle size, The ratio of surface area per unit pore to volume. Porosity.
[0022] S4. Obtain the conductivity of the liquid phase of the double layer. The conductivity of the solid phase of the double layer is obtained based on the equivalent particle size and vacuum permittivity, as detailed below: The volumetric complex conductivity of a single particle is obtained based on the equivalent particle size and the vacuum dielectric constant, as shown in the following formula:
[0023] in, The volumetric complex conductivity of a single particle. For equivalent particle size, Angular frequency, For relaxation time, The imaginary unit, The mobility of ions in the Stern layer. The mobility of ions in the diffusion layer. The surface conductivity of the particles is the complex conductivity. The DC resistivity of the particle surface. This represents the ion density in the Stern layer. The ion density in the diffusion layer. denoted as , where is the charge density of hydrogen ions.
[0024] The conductivity of the solid phase with an electric double layer is obtained from the volumetric complex conductivity of a single particle.
[0025] S5. Mesh the deposition and compaction models, and obtain the nodal potential of each element after meshing based on the electrical conductivity of the solid phase and the liquid phase. The specific formula is as follows:
[0026] in, For nodes With the surrounding The conductivity of the bonds between nodes. For the surrounding area The potential of each node, ; Let be the node potential.
[0027] S6. Solve the complex conductivity of the compaction model by combining the finite difference method with the nodal potential of each element.
[0028] See Figure 13 In another feasible embodiment of the present invention, the following modifications are made as appropriate. The steps include: By establishing sedimentary and compaction models with similar pore structures to sedimentary rocks, and by simulating the pore structure of real sedimentary rocks, we can ensure that the physical basis of subsequent analysis is close to the actual situation. The mean particle size, porosity, and volume ratio per unit pore surface area obtained from the sedimentation model and the compaction model respectively provide the necessary data support for subsequent calculation of equivalent particle size and complex conductivity; The equivalent particle size of the sedimentation model and the compaction model is obtained based on the mean particle size, porosity, and volume ratio of unit pore surface area, which facilitates subsequent electrical conductivity calculation. Obtaining the electrical conductivity of the liquid phase of the double electric layer and the electrical conductivity of the solid phase of the double electric layer based on the equivalent particle size and vacuum dielectric constant can more accurately describe the electrical properties inside the rock, making the results closer to the actual situation. The deposition and compaction models are meshed, which makes the model analysis more refined and can capture local potential changes. The nodal potential of each unit after meshing is obtained based on the conductivity of the solid phase and the conductivity of the liquid phase. The nodal potential is solved by numerical methods, providing basic data for subsequent complex conductivity calculation. The complex conductivity of the compaction model is solved by combining the finite difference method with the nodal potential of each element. This invention can accurately calculate the complex conductivity of deposition and compaction models.
[0029] Example 1: See Figure 13 This invention discloses a method for obtaining complex conductivity based on digital core technology, comprising the following steps: Step 1: Create a virtual rock with a similar pore structure to sedimentary rocks using a procedural method. The virtual rock includes a sedimentary model and a compaction model. See [link to relevant documentation]. Figure 3 and Figure 3a This method includes three processes: deposition, compaction, and diagenesis.
[0030] The deposition process refers to the process in which particles of different sizes are deposited sequentially within a defined area, forming a particle accumulation with porous structure characteristics.
[0031] To simulate the squeezing effect caused by overlying strata pressure, the particle pack needs to be compacted. This invention assumes that all particles are rigid spherical bodies, meaning their volume and shape do not change during compaction, and does not consider particle rotation or breakage. The compaction process acts in the x, y, and z directions. The change in the position of the center of each particle after compaction can be expressed as:
[0032] in The original coordinates of the particle's center are... These are the coordinates of the center of the compacted particles. This is the compaction coefficient. To avoid situations where the space is not fully filled during modeling or where sub-blocks contain boundaries, the modeling space is set to... A cube.
[0033] Step 2: Calculate the structural parameters of the deposition and compaction models using Avizo software. First, threshold segmentation is performed on all two-dimensional slices; see [link to relevant documentation]. Figure 1 and Figure 2 Identify pixels Pores or particles, pores granules Then, the watershed algorithm is used to divide each pore in the three-dimensional data volume. and granules Then calculate each pore surface area and volume and length ,width and height This allows us to obtain the major axis of each pore. and short axis Similarly, the calculations for each particle were performed. surface area and volume subscript Represents pores, subscript The representative particle. The structural parameters involved in this invention are shown in Table 1.
[0034] Table 1. Virtual core structure parameters, symbols, definitions, and calculation formulas used in this invention.
[0035] Step 3: Calculate the equivalent particle size of the compaction model. The compaction process causes the center coordinates of all particles to shift towards the origin, and previously tangent particles gradually intersect. This results in more particles being squeezed into the representative volume element. If the same size representative volume element is still used for analysis, the influence of other variables (e.g., particle number) will be introduced, making it impossible to analyze whether the changes in structural parameters are caused by the compaction process or by changes in particle number, thus rendering subsequent discussions incomparable. Therefore, as the compaction process continues, the size of the representative volume element will be reduced proportionally.
[0036] This invention proposes to equate the compaction process to a particle volume expansion process and introduces an equivalent particle size. This is used to characterize the degree of compaction. We found that the compaction process causes the calculation of porosity and the volume ratio per unit pore surface area to be affected. The equivalent particle size changes for spherical particle samples. The ratio of volume to unit pore surface area and calculation of porosity The calculation is expressed as:
[0037] in, For equivalent particle size, The ratio of surface area per unit pore to volume. Porosity.
[0038] Step 4, particle upgrading or porosity upgrading. For porous media composed of a single mineral, they can be considered as two-phase or three-medium materials. The two phases refer to the solid and liquid phases, and the three media refer to the insulating matrix, the conductive electrolyte, and the electric double layer with perturbation properties. This invention equates the surface complex conductivity contributed by the electric double layer to the volume complex conductivity of the particles or solution, i.e., particle upgrading or porosity upgrading. Taking particle upgrading as an example, for a radius of... For particles, assuming that the surface complex conductivity of insulating particles with an electric double layer can be equivalent to the volume complex conductivity of conductive particles without an electric double layer, that is, averaging the surface complex conductivity contributed by the electric double layer over the particle volume to obtain the volume complex conductivity of a single particle. , is represented as:
[0039] in, The volumetric complex conductivity of a single particle. For equivalent particle size, Angular frequency, For relaxation time, The imaginary unit, The mobility of ions in the Stern layer. The mobility of ions in the diffusion layer. The surface conductivity of the particles is the complex conductivity. The DC resistivity of the particle surface. This represents the ion density in the Stern layer. The ion density in the diffusion layer. denoted as , where is the charge density of hydrogen ions.
[0040] After particle upgrading, the electrical conductivity of the solid phase becomes: The conductivity of the liquid phase remains unchanged, and is still: subscript Represents the solid phase. Represents the liquid phase. The vacuum permittivity, The relative permittivity of the solid phase is denoted as . Let be the relative permittivity of the liquid phase. Similarly, the surface conductivity contributed by the double layer can be averaged in the pore space to achieve porosity enhancement.
[0041] Step 5, see Figure 4 and Figure 5 The sedimentation and compaction models were meshed. Regular hexahedrons were used to divide the three-dimensional digital core into elements, and the number of each element after discretization was represented by its central node.
[0042] Step 6: Numerically solve for the complex conductivity of the deposition model and the compaction model using the finite difference method. For any node... Its nodal potential It can be represented as:
[0043] in, For nodes With the surrounding The conductivity of the bonds between nodes. For the surrounding area The potential of each node, ; Let be the node potential.
[0044] node potential Simplify to the following formula:
[0045] In the discretized three-dimensional digital core, the potential of each node can be represented by the simplified formula above, where the node... With nodes Conductivity of the link bonds Calculated using the conductivity of the voxel unit it belongs to.
[0046] The invention is further characterized by: In step 1, when generating the deposition model using the process method, only the final equilibrium position of the particles is considered. During the compaction simulation, it is assumed that all particles are spherical rigid bodies, meaning that their volume and shape do not change during the compaction process, and particle rotation and breakage are not considered.
[0047] The method for calculating the structural parameters of the deposition and compaction models in step 2 is an image processing technique based on the watershed algorithm.
[0048] In step 3, porosity and the volume ratio of unit pore surface area are introduced to calculate the equivalent particle size, thereby correcting the error caused by the compaction process.
[0049] In step 4, the surface conductivity at the solid-liquid interface was averaged over both particle volume and pore volume, thus converting the surface conductivity into volume conductivity.
[0050] In step 5, regular hexahedrons are used for mesh generation, which reduces the amount of computation.
[0051] This invention can accurately calculate the complex conductivity of deposition and compaction models, and thus analyze the influence of structural parameters on the induced polarization effect.
[0052] Example 2: See Figure 13 This embodiment discusses the effect of different particle sizes on the excitation polarization effect.
[0053] Step 1: Deposit spheres with different particle size distributions in the modeling space using the deposition algorithm in the process method to obtain a deposition model with different particle size distributions.
[0054] Step 2: Calculate the structural parameters of different sedimentary models using the watershed algorithm with Avizo software. The structural parameters of each sedimentary model are shown in Table 2.
[0055] Table 2. Structural parameter statistics of the compaction model:
[0056] Step 3: Since these models are generated by the deposition process, the error caused by the compaction process is not considered. That is, the mean particle size can be used to represent the true particle size of the model, i.e., the equivalent particle size.
[0057] Step 4: The surface conductivity effect is averaged across both particle volume and pore volume, effectively converting the surface conductivity to bulk conductivity. The formula is as follows:
[0058] in, The volumetric complex conductivity of a single particle. For equivalent particle size, Angular frequency, For relaxation time, The imaginary unit, The mobility of ions in the Stern layer. The mobility of ions in the diffusion layer. The surface conductivity of the particles is the complex conductivity. The DC resistivity of the particle surface. This represents the ion density in the Stern layer. The ion density in the diffusion layer. denoted as , where is the charge density of hydrogen ions.
[0059] Particle size The mean grain size is shown in Table 2. The mean grain size is different for each sedimentation model.
[0060] Step 5: Grid the sedimentation model.
[0061] Step 6: Numerically solve the complex conductivity of the deposition model using the finite difference method. The results are as follows... Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown.
[0062] Numerical simulations show that both the amplitude and phase of the complex conductivity exhibit dispersion. The ratio of unit pore surface area to volume in deposition model E1 is... The particle size is the largest, therefore its amplitude dispersion is the greatest. In the phase-frequency curve, it can be observed that the frequency of the electrochemical polarization characteristic relaxation peak increases with decreasing particle size. Furthermore, the phase value corresponding to the electrochemical polarization relaxation peak also increases with decreasing particle size. This means that the polarization intensity increases with decreasing particle size. As shown in Table 3, the ratio of unit pore surface area to volume... The intensity of electrochemical polarization increases with decreasing particle size, therefore it is believed that the intensity of electrochemical polarization is related to... It is positively correlated. Furthermore, numerical simulation results show that Maxwell-Wagner polarization is independent of particle size.
[0063] Example 3: See Figure 13 This embodiment discusses the effect of different compaction coefficients on the induced polarization effect.
[0064] Step 1: Using the deposition algorithm in the process method, the compaction coefficient is changed to perform a compaction operation on the deposition model A1. The compaction coefficient is set to 0.04, 0.08, 0.1, 0.14, 0.18, 0.2, 0.22, 0.24, 0.28, and compaction models A2-A10 are obtained.
[0065] Step 2: Calculate the structural parameters of different compaction models using the watershed algorithm in Avizo software. The structural parameters of each compaction model are shown in Table 3.
[0066] Table 3. Statistical analysis of structural parameters of the sedimentation model:
[0067] Step 3, as shown in Table 3, shows that the mean particle size decreases only slightly with increasing compaction coefficient (this change is negligible). This means that the compaction process does not change the actual volume of the particles, but rather alters their spatial positions, changing them from tangential to intersecting, thus compressing the pore volume. Simultaneously, considering that the size of the representative volume unit gradually decreases with increasing compaction coefficient, the particle volume relative to the compressed representative volume unit is actually increasing. Therefore, the compaction process is equivalent to a particle volume expansion process, and an equivalent particle size is introduced. To characterize the degree of compaction.
[0068] Step 4: The surface conductivity effect was averaged over both particle volume and pore volume, effectively converting the surface conductivity to bulk conductivity. This is illustrated in the following equation:
[0069] in, The volumetric complex conductivity of a single particle. For equivalent particle size, Angular frequency, For relaxation time, The imaginary unit, The mobility of ions in the Stern layer. The mobility of ions in the diffusion layer. The surface conductivity of the particles is the complex conductivity. The DC resistivity of the particle surface. This represents the ion density in the Stern layer. The ion density in the diffusion layer. denoted as , where is the charge density of hydrogen ions.
[0070] Particle size This is the equivalent particle size. For example... Figure 8 As shown, the equivalent particle size increases with the increase of the compaction coefficient, while the change in the mean particle size is very small.
[0071] Step 5: Mesh the compaction model.
[0072] Step 6: Numerically solve the complex conductivity of the compaction model using the finite difference method. The results are as follows... Figure 9 and Figure 10 As shown.
[0073] Numerical simulations show that both the amplitude and phase of the complex conductivity are dispersed, with the phase dispersion being greater. The amplitude of the complex conductivity decreases with increasing compaction coefficient, indicating that the pore space for free charge transport is compressed, leading to a decrease in conductivity. This is especially true when the compaction coefficient changes from 0.14 to 0.2, where the amplitude of the complex conductivity changes by more than an order of magnitude.
[0074] In the phase-frequency curve, the frequency of the characteristic peak of electrochemical polarization decreases with increasing compaction coefficient. This is a result of using the particle expansion equivalent compaction process, i.e., the equivalent particle size increases with increasing compaction coefficient, leading to an increase in relaxation time and a decrease in characteristic relaxation frequency. This also reflects that electrochemical polarization at low frequencies is related to particle size. The phase value corresponding to the characteristic relaxation peak of electrochemical polarization increases with increasing compaction coefficient, and the increase in compaction coefficient makes the unit pore surface area to volume ratio... The phase value corresponding to the characteristic relaxation peak of electrochemical polarization increases, therefore, the phase value is related to... A positive correlation exists. Furthermore, as the compaction coefficient increases, a second characteristic relaxation peak gradually appears in the transition region between electrochemical polarization and Maxwell-Wagner polarization. This relaxation peak may be related to the surface roughness of the particles. Numerical simulation results also show that the intensity of Maxwell-Wagner polarization increases with increasing compaction coefficient.
[0075] Example 4: See Figure 13 This embodiment discusses the influence of different structural parameters on the excitation polarization parameters.
[0076] Step 1: Using the deposition and compaction algorithms in the process method, virtual digital cores with different structural parameters are generated.
[0077] Step 2: Calculate the structural parameters of different virtual core models using the Avizo software based on the watershed algorithm.
[0078] Step 3: For the deposition model, the equivalent particle size is not considered; for the compaction model, the compaction process is characterized by the equivalent particle size.
[0079] Step 4: The surface conductivity effect was averaged over both particle volume and pore volume, effectively converting the surface conductivity to bulk conductivity. This is illustrated in the following equation:
[0080] in, The volumetric complex conductivity of a single particle. For equivalent particle size, Angular frequency, For relaxation time, The imaginary unit, The mobility of ions in the Stern layer. The mobility of ions in the diffusion layer. The surface conductivity of the particles is the complex conductivity. The DC resistivity of the particle surface. This represents the ion density in the Stern layer. The ion density in the diffusion layer. denoted as , where is the charge density of hydrogen ions.
[0081] For sedimentation models, grain size For the mean grain size, the grain size is... The equivalent particle size.
[0082] Step 5: Mesh the deposition model and the compaction model.
[0083] Step 6: The complex conductivity of the deposition model is numerically solved using the finite difference method. The relationship between structural parameters and induced polarization parameters is then discussed.
[0084] See Figure 11 and Figure 12 ,parameter and Both vary with the unit pore surface area to volume ratio The value initially increases and then decreases. This indicates that for samples with low porosity, the relationship between the excited polarization effect and structural parameters may be reversed. This represents the imaginary part of the complex conductivity at 1 Hz.
[0085] The purpose of this invention is to provide a method for numerical simulation of the induced polarization effect in porous media.
