Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the fields of oil and gas exploration and development and geophysical logging technology, specifically to a method for predicting formation pore pressure in fractured reservoirs. Background Technology
[0002] In deep and ultra-deep oil and gas exploration and development projects, accurate prediction of formation pore pressure is a core prerequisite for ensuring drilling operation safety, designing reasonable mud density windows, and preventing blowouts and lost circulation accidents.
[0003] Currently, the mainstream pore pressure prediction methods in the industry (such as the Eaton method and the Bowers method) are mainly based on the "undercompactment theory" of clastic rocks. This theory holds that formation porosity decreases exponentially with the increase of overlying effective stress, and abnormally high pressure will lead to abnormally high porosity, which will be reflected in the decrease of sonic velocity on the logging curve.
[0004] However, in fractured reservoirs, acoustic velocity is controlled by the complex pore structure, not just by porosity. Especially in systems containing well-developed microfractures, the opening or closing state of fractures directly determines the formation's acoustic response. Existing prediction methods often treat the fracture aspect ratio as a fuzzy variable that varies with pressure, and use empirical attenuation functions for calculations. The limitations of this approach are: first, the range of values for empirical parameters is subjective, leading to significant differences in pressure results obtained by different interpreters; second, the model fails to establish the mechanical relationship between wave velocity, fracture geometry, and effective stress.
[0005] In actual production, such predictions lacking physical support often manifest as "high pressure underreporting" or "false high pressure misreporting," severely restricting the exploration efficiency of deep and complex oil and gas reservoirs. Summary of the Invention
[0006] To address the problem that existing methods for predicting formation pore pressure in fractured reservoirs mainly rely on empirical parameters and lack physical support, often resulting in "high pressure underreporting" or "false high pressure misreporting," this invention provides a method for predicting formation pore pressure in fractured reservoirs to solve this problem.

[0152] After the update, continue in the new interpolation interval [P] L ,P R Interpolation calculations are performed within the range until the residual meets the tolerance requirements or reaches the preset maximum number of iterations.
[0153] It should be noted that both steps S53 and S54 employ interpolation, but step S53 is used to establish the initial interpolation interval for the initial depth point, i.e., with P... min and P max Using the endpoint as an example, calculate the corresponding theoretical P-wave velocity V. p,calc (P min ) and V p,calc (P max Step S54 is used to interpolate within the current interpolation interval [P] L ,P R Subsequent iterative updates will be performed within this period, based on the current endpoint pressure and the corresponding theoretical longitudinal wave velocity V. p,calc (P L V p,calc (P k Calculate the predicted pressure P for the kth time. k The interval endpoints are then updated based on the residual sign.

[0168] It should be noted that step S6 mainly participates in verification calculations in the early stages of the work. That is, when the formation pore pressure prediction method of the fractured reservoir of the present invention is used in a new area, it participates in the verification calculation of the predicted pore pressure to verify the accuracy of the formation pore pressure prediction method of the fractured reservoir provided by the present invention in this area. After the verification is successful, the prediction of pore pressure at other target formation depths in the current area can be performed using steps S1 to S5 of the present invention.
[0169] This invention provides a method for predicting formation pore pressure in fractured reservoirs. Based on the relationship between fracture mechanics and rock physics, this method establishes the correspondence between pore pressure, fracture aspect ratio, and theoretical P-wave velocity. The method uses the residual between theoretical P-wave velocity and measured P-wave velocity as the matching target and solves the predicted pore pressure at the target depth through interval interpolation iteration.
[0170] Through the above steps, the predicted pore pressure at the corresponding depth point can be obtained iteratively within the defined pore pressure search range for both the initial and subsequent depth points, constrained by the residual between the theoretical and measured P-wave velocities.
[0171] The solution method employed in this invention involves setting a preset pore pressure value to calculate the theoretical P-wave velocity, then iterating continuously until the residual between the theoretical P-wave velocity and the measured wave velocity meets the tolerance requirement, at which point the result is output. During the calculation process, the preset pore pressure value is a continuously updated pore pressure value, and the predicted pore pressure is the final output value predicted using this method, i.e., the calculated pore pressure value of the target formation.
[0172] Among them, the preset value of pore pressure P p It is the trial pressure used for theoretical P-wave velocity during the iterative solution process; when the residual between the theoretical P-wave velocity and the measured P-wave velocity corresponding to a certain candidate pore pressure meets the tolerance requirement, the candidate pore pressure is used as the predicted pore pressure output.

[0174] To illustrate the applicable process of the method of the present invention and to verify the accuracy of the calculation results of the prediction method provided by the present invention, as shown in the appendix... Figure 2-4 As shown, three different depth segments were selected as examples. The formation pore pressure prediction method for fractured reservoirs described above was used to predict and calculate the pore pressure of the target formation. The pore pressure of the target formation was actually measured, and the calculated pore pressure value was compared with the actual measured pore pressure value to verify the accuracy of the formation pore pressure prediction method for fractured reservoirs provided by the present invention.
[0175] During verification, it is also necessary to actually measure the pressure of the target formation to obtain the measured pore pressure value P of the target formation. p,obs .
[0176] All three embodiments are performed according to steps S1 to S6 provided by the formation pore pressure prediction method for fractured reservoirs of the present invention. The process of steps S1 to S5 is briefly described as follows:
[0177] First, obtain the measured P-wave velocity V at the target depth point.p,meas Normal stress σ on the crack surface n Total porosity φ total φ of crack porosity frac The mineral component volume fraction and related fluid parameters are then used to establish a preset pore pressure value P based on the effective stress relationship between the normal stress on the fracture surface and the pore pressure. p The relationship between the longitudinal and transverse aspect ratio α of the crack was established; then, combining the equivalent medium model and the Gassmann equation, the theoretical longitudinal wave velocity V under different pore pressure conditions was calculated. p,calc Finally, with V p,calc With V p,meas Using the difference between them as the basis for judgment, the pore pressure is gradually updated within the preset pressure range to obtain the calculated pore pressure value P of the target formation at each depth point. p,cal .
[0178] To evaluate the prediction results, step S6 of the formation pore pressure prediction method for fractured reservoirs provided by this invention is used to compare the calculated pore pressure value of the target formation with the measured pore pressure value of the target formation.
[0179] The error calculation method is as follows:
[0180] ;
[0181] ;
[0182] In the formula, ΔP is the difference between the predicted pore pressure (i.e., the calculated pore pressure value) and the measured pore pressure value, in MPa; P p,cal P represents the pore pressure value calculated by this method, in MPa. p,obs δ represents the measured pore pressure value of the target formation, in MPa; δ is the relative error, in %. Specific Implementation Example 1:
[0184] As attached Figure 2 As shown in the figure, this specific embodiment 1 selects a carbonate rock section in a certain well section of Dawan as the calculation object.
[0185] The input parameters for this well section include the measured P-wave velocity V. p,meas Normal stress σ on the crack surface n Total porosity φ total φ frac Volume fractions of evaporite, dolomite, limestone, and mudstone, etc.
[0186] In this embodiment, measured pressure data at a depth of 4850m is available for comparative analysis.
[0187] The comparative analysis results are shown in Table 1.
[0188] Table 1. Comparison and Analysis of Measured Pressure Data and Predicted Pore Pressure at a Depth of 4850m
[0189]
[0190] As shown in Table 1, at 4850m, the pore pressure P calculated using the aforementioned method for predicting formation pore pressure in fractured reservoirs is... p,cal The measured pressure value P in the target formation is 60.39 MPa. p,obs The value is 60.20 MPa, the difference between the two is 0.19 MPa, and the relative error is approximately 0.32%.
[0191] The results show that, in this well section, the calculation results using the method provided by this invention are close to the measured pressure, and can reflect the pore pressure level near this depth point. Specific Implementation Example 2:

Input parameters include the measured P-wave velocity V. p,meas Normal stress σ on the crack surface n Total porosity φ total φ of crack porosity frac And mineral composition parameters.
[0194] In this embodiment, there are 3 depth points with measured pressure data. The predicted results are compared with the measured pressure as follows.
[0195] Table 2. Comparison and analysis of measured pressure data and predicted pore pressure at three depth points.
[0196]
[0197] The average absolute error of the three measured comparison points in this well section is approximately 0.32 MPa, the root mean square error is approximately 0.37 MPa, and the average relative error is approximately 0.54%. The largest absolute error occurs at 3017 m, at approximately 0.57 MPa, corresponding to a relative error of approximately 0.97%.
[0198] The comparison results show that the predicted pore pressure and the measured pressure have the same trend, and the error is within a small range. Specific Implementation Example 3:
[0200] This embodiment selects a well section in the deep, complex strata of the Tarim Basin as the calculation object. Input parameters include the measured P-wave velocity V. p,meas Normal stress σ on the crack surface n Total porosity φ total φ of crack porosityfrac And mineral composition parameters.
[0201] In this embodiment, there are 5 depth points with measured pressure data. The predicted results are compared with the measured pressure as follows.
[0202] Table 3. Comparison and analysis of measured pressure data and predicted pore pressure at 5 depth points.
[0203]
[0204] The average absolute error of the five measured comparison points in this well section is approximately 0.24 MPa, the root mean square error is approximately 0.32 MPa, and the average relative error is approximately 0.27%. The maximum absolute error is 0.57 MPa, corresponding to a relative error of approximately 0.63%.
[0205] The results show that the predicted pore pressure increases with depth, which is basically consistent with the pressure change trend reflected by the measured pressure, and the predicted results are similar to those of the measured pressure.
[0206] Comprehensive analysis:
[0207] As can be seen from the three specific embodiments, this method uses the measured longitudinal wave velocity as a constraint and performs point-by-point calculations based on the relationship between the preset value of pore pressure, the longitudinal-to-transverse ratio of the crack, and the theoretical longitudinal wave velocity.
[0208] The calculation results show that the average absolute error between the pore pressure calculated by this method and the measured pressure of the target formation is about 0.25 MPa, and the average relative error is about 0.36%. The average relative error is calculated by summing the average absolute error values obtained from the three specific implementations mentioned above and then calculating the average absolute error.
[0209] In summary, these results demonstrate that the proposed method can effectively reflect the variation characteristics of pore pressure in fractured reservoirs and can be used for continuous pressure prediction at different depths. This allows for the calculation of the pore pressure value P of the target formation within the target area using steps S1 to S5 of the prediction method provided by this invention during subsequent work. p,cal The pore pressure value P of the target formation was calculated based on this. p,cal This provides theoretical guidance for subsequent production.
