Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model belongs to the field of natural gas exploitation, in particular to a shale gas reservoir fracturing horizontal well fracturing fluid return simulation device. Background Art
[0002] In shale gas extraction, it is usually necessary to first drill a vertical well several thousand meters underground, then drill hundreds to thousands of meters horizontally, and then use large-scale hydraulic fracturing technology. This technology injects a mixture of clean water, ceramic particles, chemicals, etc. into the ground to "pry open" the rock layer containing natural gas flow at a pressure of tens to hundreds of megapascals, allowing the shale gas hidden deep in the shale layer to be released. When the fracturing fluid completes the fracturing task, the remaining substances need to be returned to the ground through the flowback process.
[0003] The existing Chinese patent CN216517974U discloses a shale gas reservoir fracturing horizontal well fracturing fluid return simulation device, including: a base, an injection cylinder is placed on the upper end of the base, one end of the injection cylinder is connected to a pipe, a sealing gasket is arranged at the connection between the pipe and the injection cylinder, the other end of the pipe is connected to a plug, the other end of the plug is connected to a telescopic tube, the middle of the telescopic tube is equipped with a liquid pump, and the end of the telescopic tube away from the plug is connected to a mixed liquid barrel. The shale gas reservoir fracturing horizontal well fracturing fluid return simulation device is provided with a secondary liquid chamber, which is used to simulate the influence of cracks generated in different directions on the backflow of fracturing fluid. The staff can open a single or multiple secondary liquid chambers by pulling out the sealing plate to explore the influence of multiple cracks on the backflow of fracturing fluid, increase the controllable environmental variables, improve the simulation diversity of the simulation device, and make the simulation results more meaningful.
[0004] The above-mentioned backflow simulation device has two channels for the injection pipe and the return pipe. Since the actual construction requires drilling to coordinate the placement of the injection pipe and the return pipe, the above-mentioned backflow simulation device is relatively costly in actual application. At the same time, the existing simulation device is not convenient for controlling the number of rock fractures, making it difficult to determine the impact of different numbers of rock fractures on the fracturing fluid backflow process.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0019] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the utility model to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the utility model, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the utility model.
[0020] like Figures 1 to 5 As shown:
[0021] Embodiment 1: The utility model provides a shale gas reservoir fracturing horizontal well fracturing fluid flowback simulation device, comprising: a fracturing fluid injection mechanism 1, including a fracturing fluid storage and recovery component 11, and a casing component 12 fixedly connected to the fracturing fluid storage and recovery component 11; a simulated rock formation mechanism 2, including a simulated rock formation component 21 interconnected with the casing component 12, and an adjustment component 22 installed on the simulated rock formation component 21; a fracturing fluid recovery mechanism 3, including a recovery component 31 interconnected with the fracturing fluid storage and recovery component 11, and a recovery box component 32 connected to the recovery component 31;
[0022] Among them, by controlling the operation of the fracturing fluid storage and recovery component 11, the fracturing fluid can be injected into the simulated rock formation component 21 through the casing component 12. When the internal pressure of the simulated rock formation component 21 reaches a certain level, the injection of the fracturing fluid is stopped. The fracturing fluid storage and recovery component 11 is controlled, and the recovery component 31 is made to operate. The operation of the recovery component 31 allows the fracturing fluid to pass through the simulated rock formation component 21, the casing component 12 and the recovery component 31 and then enter the recovery box component 32. By controlling the operation of the adjustment component 22, the internal size of the simulated rock formation component 21 can be changed, thereby simulating a scene with different numbers of rock fractures.
[0023] Specifically, the fracturing fluid storage and recovery component 11 includes a fracturing fluid storage box body 111, the lower end of the outer side of the fracturing fluid storage box body 111 is connected to a high-pressure centrifugal pump 112 through a pipeline, one side of the high-pressure centrifugal pump 112 is fixedly connected to a main pipeline 113, one side of the main pipeline 113 is provided with a bifurcated pipe 114, the upper side of the main pipeline 113 is provided with a valve 115, and the upper side of the bifurcated pipe 114 is provided with a valve 2 116.
[0024] Specifically, the sleeve assembly 12 includes a sleeve body 121, one end of the sleeve body 121 is fixedly connected to a joint 122, and the other end of the sleeve body 121 is fixedly connected to a joint 2 123; the recovery assembly 31 includes a recovery pipe body 311, one side of the recovery pipe body 311 is fixedly connected to a self-priming pump 312, and the other end of the recovery pipe body 311 is fixedly connected to a filter box 313; the recovery box assembly 32 includes a recovery box body 321, and the lower end of the outer side of the recovery box body 321 is fixedly connected to a guide pipe 322.
[0025] Specifically, valve 115 is located between the high-pressure centrifugal pump 112 and the bifurcated pipe 114, connector 122 is fixedly connected to the main pipe 113, and connector 2 123 is fixedly connected to the simulated rock formation assembly 21; one side of the self-priming pump 312 is interconnected with the bifurcated pipe 114 through a pipeline, and one side of the filter box 313 extends into the recovery box body 321 through a pipeline; wherein, the high-pressure centrifugal pump 112 and the self-priming pump 312 are both equipped with a flow display function.
[0026] As can be seen from the above, closing valve two 116 and opening valve one 115, and controlling the high-pressure centrifugal pump 112 to work can allow the fracturing fluid inside the fracturing fluid storage box body 111 to pass through the main pipeline 113 and the casing body 121 and then enter the simulated rock formation assembly 21. When the simulation is completed, closing valve one 115 and opening valve two 116, and controlling the self-priming pump 312 to work can allow the fracturing fluid in the hollow pipe 211 to pass through the casing body 121, the main pipeline 113, the recovery pipe body 311 and the filter box 313 and then be injected into the recovery box body 321. The filter box 313 can be used to filter the fracturing fluid, and the fracturing fluid in the recovery box body 321 can be discharged through the outlet pipe 322. The flow rate can be read out through the flow display function of the high-pressure centrifugal pump 112 and the self-priming pump 312.
[0027] Embodiment 2: This embodiment is basically the same as the previous embodiment, except that the simulated rock formation component 21 includes a hollow pipe 211, a pressure gauge is arranged on the upper side of the hollow pipe 211, a plurality of branch pipes are arranged inside the hollow pipe 211, and a support frame 212 is fixedly connected to the lower end of one side of the hollow pipe 211; the adjustment component 22 includes a connecting rod 221, a threaded rod 222 and a motor 223, one end of the connecting rod 221 is fixedly connected to a threaded block 224, the other end of the connecting rod 221 is fixedly connected to a piston 225, and one end of the threaded rod 222 is fixedly connected to a gear 226.
[0028] Specifically, the threaded rod 222 is fixedly mounted on the support frame 212 through a bearing, and the motor 223 can drive the gear 226 to drive the threaded rod 222 to rotate. The rotation of the threaded rod 222 can drive the threaded block 224 to slide along the support frame 212, and the piston 225 is slidably embedded in the interior of the hollow pipe 211.
[0029] As can be seen from the above, when the fracturing fluid is injected into the interior of the hollow pipe 211, the fracturing fluid will disperse into the bifurcated pipes, thereby simulating the effect of the fracturing fluid entering the rock fracture. The pressure inside the hollow pipe 211 can be monitored in real time through the pressure gauge, and the control motor 223 drives the gear 226 to drive the threaded rod 222 to rotate. The threaded rod 222 rotates to drive the threaded block 224 to slide along the support frame 212. The sliding of the threaded block 224 will cause the connecting rod 221 to drive the piston 225 to slide in the hollow pipe 211, thereby reducing the space in the hollow pipe 211. At the same time, the number of bifurcated pipes that the fracturing fluid can enter will also change, thereby better demonstrating the influence of the length of the hollow pipe 211 and the number of bifurcated pipes on the fracturing fluid return process.
