However, the formation mechanism of shale gas reservoirs is complex, and exploration requires comprehensive consideration of various geological factors, such as the physical properties of shale reservoirs, the influence of paleogeography on the sedimentary environment, and preservation conditions. Traditional single-parameter evaluation methods are insufficient to comprehensively and accurately predict favorable shale gas areas, resulting in a low exploration success rate.

[0054] Example 1, please refer to Figure 1 , Figure 1 This is a flowchart illustrating the steps of an embodiment of a method for evaluating favorable shale gas areas according to the present invention. The method includes:
[0055] Step S101: Obtain the geological and engineering parameters of the area to be evaluated;
[0056] In this embodiment of the disclosure, in order to perform paleogeomorphological analysis, preservation condition analysis, and construct a quantitative evaluation model for the area to be evaluated, it is necessary to obtain the geological parameters and engineering parameters of the area to be evaluated.
[0057] Step S102: Based on the engineering parameters, perform paleogeomorphological analysis on the area to be evaluated to obtain the corresponding paleogeomorphological analysis results;
[0058] It should be noted that paleogeomorphological analysis can be used to study the evolution of the Earth's surface morphology in the past and the reasons for its formation. In the evaluation of shale gas, paleogeomorphological analysis can help assess the potential reserves, accumulation conditions, and development prospects of shale gas.
[0059] Step S103: Based on the geological parameters and the engineering parameters, perform a preservation condition analysis to obtain the corresponding preservation condition analysis results;
[0060] It should be noted that preservation condition analysis can be used to assess the effectiveness and persistence of underground gas storage. Its goal is to identify favorable geological conditions that create a conducive environment for the generation, migration, and storage of shale gas.
[0061] In this embodiment of the disclosure, the preservation condition analysis includes a comprehensive assessment of caprock sealing, fault activity, and tectonic deformation to ensure the long-term stability of the gas reservoir.
[0062] Step S104: Quantify the geological parameters, engineering parameters, paleogeomorphological analysis results, and preservation condition analysis results, and assign preset weights to multiple parameter types to construct a quantitative evaluation model;

[0066] In an optional embodiment, after obtaining the quantitative evaluation results of the corresponding shale gas favorable area through the quantitative evaluation model, the method further includes:

By comprehensively analyzing paleogeomorphological characteristics, preservation conditions, and multiple key geological parameters, a quantitative evaluation model is established to obtain the corresponding quantitative evaluation result of the favorable shale gas area. Compared with single-parameter evaluation methods, this method can more comprehensively and accurately reflect the actual occurrence of shale gas reservoirs, thereby effectively reducing blind exploration and significantly lowering exploration risks.
[0070] Example 2, please refer to Figure 2 , Figure 2 This is a flowchart illustrating the steps of a second embodiment of the method for evaluating favorable shale gas areas according to the present invention. The steps include:
[0071] S201, Obtain the geological and engineering parameters of the area to be evaluated; the engineering parameters include: seismic exploration data and drilling data;
[0072] In this embodiment, geological parameters mainly include gas content, porosity, and total organic carbon (TOC) content, while engineering parameters mainly include seismic exploration data, drilling data, and mechanical parameters. The classification criteria for geological and engineering parameters of shale gas reservoir evaluation in this embodiment are shown in Table 1 below.
[0073]
[0074] Table 1
[0075] S202, using the seismic exploration data and the drilling data, paleogeomorphological reconstruction is performed on the area to be evaluated to obtain a paleogeomorphological model of the depositional period;
[0076] In this embodiment of the disclosure, a paleogeographic model of the depositional period is established using seismic exploration data, drilling data, and stratigraphic chronology data, such as... Figure 3 The paleogeographic model diagram of Example 2 of an evaluation method for favorable shale gas areas is shown.
[0077] S203, Perform sediment thickness analysis, sediment source analysis and organic matter enrichment zone analysis on the paleogeomorphic model to obtain the corresponding paleogeomorphic analysis results;
[0078] In this embodiment, based on a paleogeomorphological model, sedimentary thickness analysis, sediment source analysis, and organic matter enrichment zone analysis are performed to obtain the formation and distribution patterns of shale gas reservoirs. This allows for the determination of the control effect of paleogeomorphology on shale gas sedimentary thickness, sediment source, and organic matter enrichment, thus enabling the preliminary delineation of shale gas enrichment zones. Please refer to [link to previous document]. Figure 4 and Figure 5 , Figure 4 This is a schematic diagram of shale distribution in Embodiment 2 of the method for evaluating favorable shale gas areas according to the present invention. Figure 5 This is a schematic diagram of the distribution of high-quality shale in Embodiment 2 of the evaluation method for favorable shale gas areas of the present invention. This embodiment is based on a paleogeographic model. Figure 4 The paleogeographic analysis of the shale distribution map shown yielded the following results: Figure 5 The map shows the distribution of high-quality shale.
[0079] S204. Based on the seismic exploration data and the drilling data, the caprock sealing performance is assessed to obtain the thickness, density, and sealing analysis results of the top and bottom plates.
[0080] Preservation conditions determine whether shale gas can be preserved in the reservoir for a long time and successfully explored and extracted. This disclosure's embodiments analyze the thickness, tightness, and sealing of the caprock above the reservoir through caprock sealing assessment to ensure that gas does not escape. Fault activity analysis is also conducted. Figure 6 The diagram shows an example of caprock sealing assessment in Implementation Method 2 of a method for evaluating favorable shale gas areas.
[0081] S205. Based on the seismic exploration data and the geological parameters, conduct fault activity analysis to determine the fault distribution and fault activity degree of the area to be evaluated, so as to obtain the results of the impact of the major fault damage.
[0082] In this disclosed embodiment, in addition to assessing the caprock sealing, seismic exploration and fault activity studies are used to evaluate the distribution and activity level of faults and identify high-risk leakage zones, such as... Figure 7 The fracture classification plan view of Example 2 of the evaluation method for favorable shale gas areas is shown, where the serial number is the fault number.
[0083] While paleogeographic preservation conditions, such as paleochannels and paleotectonic morphology, have a significant impact on the formation, preservation, and gas accumulation of shale gas reservoirs, existing evaluation methods often overlook this crucial factor. This disclosure, by incorporating paleogeographic preservation conditions into subsequent quantitative evaluation models, enables a better assessment of reservoir continuity and preservation conditions, facilitating the accurate delineation of high-quality shale gas-bearing areas.
[0084] S206, Extract the stratigraphic dip angle from the seismic profile;
[0085] In this embodiment of the disclosure, a seismic profile is generated based on seismic exploration data, then stratigraphic reflection interfaces are identified from the seismic profile, and subsequently, the dip angle of the stratigraphy is measured using a seismic attribute analysis tool.
[0086] S207, The time thickness of the upper floating rock layer is converted using a preset velocity model to obtain the depth thickness of the upper floating rock layer; the seismic profile and the time thickness are generated based on the seismic exploration data;
[0087] In this embodiment of the disclosure, the strata changes of the underground structure are analyzed based on engineering data, the time thickness of the overlying rock layer is extracted, and then the time thickness of the overlying rock layer is converted into depth thickness using a velocity model to obtain the depth thickness of the overlying rock layer.
[0088] S208, Using the drilling data, verify the formation dip angle and the depth and thickness of the upper floating rock layer respectively;
[0089] In this embodiment of the disclosure, the dip angle logging data in the drilling data is analyzed to verify the formation dip angle obtained in step S206; and the formation logging information (such as sonic logging and density logging) in the drilling data is used to verify the depth and thickness of the upper floating rock layer obtained in step S207.
[0090] Through caprock sealing assessment and fault activity analysis, the preservation conditions were analyzed in depth, and the main factors of preservation conditions in this block were finally determined. Based on the verified stratigraphic dip angle and overlying strata thickness, preservation condition evaluation criteria were established, as shown in Table 2: Shale Gas Preservation Condition Evaluation Criteria.
[0091]
[0092] Table 2
[0093] S209, quantify the geological parameters, engineering parameters, paleogeomorphological analysis results, and preservation condition analysis results, and assign weights to multiple preset parameter types to construct a quantitative evaluation model;
[0094] This embodiment of the disclosure establishes a comprehensive multi-parameter quantitative evaluation model to systematically evaluate the shale gas accumulation conditions in the area to be evaluated. Different weights are assigned to each parameter based on its influence on shale gas accumulation and preservation, and the evaluation results of various geological parameters, engineering parameters, paleogeomorphology, and preservation conditions are superimposed to form a comprehensive evaluation standard, as shown in Table 3.
[0095]
[0096] Table 3
[0097] S210, Using the quantitative evaluation model, the corresponding quantitative evaluation results of shale gas favorable areas are obtained;
[0098] S211, according to the quantitative evaluation results of the shale gas favorable area, the area to be evaluated is divided into multiple shale gas favorable areas of different levels;
[0099] Please see Figure 8 , Figure 8 This is a distribution map of shale gas favorable areas in Embodiment 2 of the evaluation method for shale gas favorable areas of the present invention. According to the quantitative evaluation results of shale gas favorable areas, this embodiment marks shale gas favorable areas of different levels and recommends areas with higher scores as priority development targets.

Please refer to [link to relevant documentation]. Figure 9 The SX2 well was drilled in Class I area, and two SD2 wells were drilled in Class III area. Please refer to [link / reference]. Figure 10 , Figure 10 This is a comprehensive evaluation chart of well SX2, a single well in Example 2 of the evaluation method for favorable shale gas areas according to the present invention. Table 3 shows the criteria for judging the actual drilled reservoir quality. It can be seen that well SX2, drilled in a Class I area, has relatively good actual drilled reservoir quality, and the development of Class I reservoirs is consistent with the prediction. Please refer to 11. Figure 11 The image shows a comprehensive evaluation of the SD3 well, which is an example of a second embodiment of the evaluation method for favorable shale gas areas according to the present invention. As can be seen, the SD3 well, which was drilled in a Class III area, had poor reservoir quality. The comprehensive evaluation of the well was consistent with the prediction of Class III reservoir.
