Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of petroleum engineering tests, and specifically relates to a method for predicting the acid-rock reaction rate based on mass transfer control.

Background Art

[0002] Currently, the development of carbonate rock oil and gas resources in China is gradually developing towards deeper layers, and deep carbonate rock oil and gas has already become an indispensable part of China's energy supply. Deep carbonate rock has strong heterogeneity, high formation temperature, and high confining pressure, so it faces the problems of weak conductivity after acid fracturing and short production increase duration. Here, the acid-rock reaction rate is an important parameter for calculating the effective action distance of acid etching, and the accuracy of acid-rock reaction rate calculation is directly related to the accuracy of acid fracturing effect evaluation. Moreover, due to the high formation temperature of deep carbonate rock formations, the acid-rock reaction is mainly controlled by H ,

[0004] , mass transfer, so the research on the acid-rock reaction rate calculation method based on mass transfer control has very important significance for the evaluation of acid fracturing effects.

[0003] In the process of mass transfer, most of the actual mass transfer is the interphase transfer of substances. Due to the phase change, the substance concentration at the interface between phases is necessarily discontinuous. Moreover, the phase interface is very thin and impossible to measure directly. Therefore, up to now, the description of the phase interface is still not clear. Based on some assumptions, certain progress has also been made in the quantitative calculation of convective mass transfer, such as the double-film model, solute penetration model, and surface renewal model. However, all of the above mass transfer models simply and clearly set the physical concepts during mass transfer and simplify the establishment of mass transfer coefficients. For example, the film thickness in the double-film model, the exposure time in the solute penetration model, and the surface renewal rate in the surface renewal model are all difficult to measure. Therefore, it is difficult to quantitatively evaluate the solute mass transfer process, and a complete mass transfer model with universal laws has not been established so far.

The mass transfer coefficient equation from the center of the fracture to the fracture wall is then obtained and non-dimensionalized to obtain a dimensionless mass transfer coefficient equation. S2, based on the dimensionless mass transfer coefficient equation, the convective mass transfer coefficient and the acid liquid mass transfer within the slit are derived separately, and a simultaneous solution is obtained to obtain a correlation equation for the convective mass transfer coefficient of laminar flow in a geological fracture. S3. Based on the correlation equation for the convective mass transfer coefficient of laminar flow in stratigraphic fractures, we will analyze acid-rock reactions in stratigraphic fractures to establish a mathematical model for the effective mass transfer coefficient of acid reactants in stratigraphic fractures.
