[0052] The exemplary embodiments of the present disclosure will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. Although the exemplary embodiments of the present disclosure are shown in the drawings, it should be understood that the present disclosure can be implemented in various forms and should not be limited by the embodiments described herein. On the contrary, these embodiments are provided so that the present disclosure can be more thoroughly understood and the scope of the present disclosure can be accurately conveyed to those skilled in the art.

[0053] In the prior art, the pre-frac channeling prediction work is easily neglected in the shale gas development process. Usually, after the channeling occurs, only simple methods such as shutting down are used to control the degree of influence of channeling. However, the applicant finds that as the shale gas exploitation degree increases, the drilling wells, the positive pressure wells and the production wells in the shale gas exploitation block are more and more intensive, the interwell relationship is more and more complex, the channeling condition is more and more complex, and the influence degree of the channeling degree change on the shale gas production is also increasing. Therefore, it is urgent to identify the channeling risk before fracturing of the well to be fractured, and to realize the channeling control and the fracturing optimization through the channeling channel identification. In view of the above problems, the present application is proposed to provide a channeling channel identification method, device and equipment which can overcome the above problems or at least partially solve the above problems.

[0054] The present application provides a channeling channel identification method in the embodiment, referring to FIG. 1, the method can include the following steps:

[0055] S101: identifying the fracture communication zone existing between the well to be fractured and its adjacent production well;

[0056] S102: determining the slip trend of the fracture of the well to be fractured in the fracture communication zone, and determining the channeling risk grade of the fracture of the well to be fractured according to the slip trend of the fracture of the well to be fractured;

[0057] S103: for each of the adjacent production well, determining the position of the production well in the fracture communication zone where the drilling pressure complex condition occurs in the drilling process, and determining the fracture reliability evaluation result of the production well according to the distance between the position where the drilling pressure complex condition occurs in the production well and the development position of the fracture of the production well;

[0058] S104: performing the channeling channel identification of the well to be fractured according to the channeling risk grade of the fracture of the well to be fractured in the fracture communication zone and the fracture reliability evaluation result of the production well.

[0059] The present application provides a channeling channel identification method, which identifies the fracture communication zone existing between the well to be fractured and its adjacent production well, determines the slip trend and the channeling risk grade of the fracture of the well to be fractured, and determines the fracture reliability of the production well, so as to realize the channeling channel identification. The channeling channel between the well to be fractured and the production well and the channeling risk of the well to be fractured can be finely identified, so that reasonable channeling risk prevention measures and fracturing optimization measures can be proposed according to the identification result, the channeling can be accurately prevented and controlled, the actual effect of “reducing channeling and increasing production” can be achieved, the average production of the adjacent production well of the well to be fractured can be improved, the degree of channeling and the influence of channeling can be reduced, and the channeling recovery period of the adjacent production well after the channeling is reduced.

[0060] In an optional embodiment, in the step S101, the well to be shut in is a shale gas well to be fractured. Before fracturing the well to be shut in, seismic data, geological data, core data and drilling logging data of the well to be shut in are needed to be obtained, and seismic data, geological data, core data, drilling logging data and fracturing production data of the adjacent production well are also needed to be obtained. The seismic data can include seismic curvature, ant body and GR result plan of the well to be shut in. The geological data include regional geological survey report, stratum sequence, lithological characteristics, sedimentary environment analysis and the like. The core data include physical characteristic data of the core sampled by drilling, such as mineral composition, rock structure, porosity, permeability, organic matter type and maturity. The drilling logging data include drilling data, logging data and logging data. The fracturing production data include a series of data and information needed before, during and after the hydraulic fracturing operation, such as fracturing fluid formula, proppant selection, injection rate, pressure and volume in the construction scheme, real-time injection pressure, flow rate, cumulative injection volume, sanding intensity, liquid intensity in the fracturing operation, fracturing effect monitoring and evaluation records including fracturing operation time, equipment state used, abnormal event record, microseismic monitoring data, pressure drop test and flow test data, output analysis such as gas component, water invasion data, wellhead production data and downhole monitoring data.

[0061] In the step S101, the fracture communication zone between the well to be shut in and the adjacent production well is identified, specifically including:

[0062] According to the fracture development condition and the interwell fracture communication condition of the well to be shut in analyzed by the seismic data, the geological data, the core data, the drilling logging data and the fracturing production data, the fracture communication zone between the well to be shut in and the adjacent production well is identified.

[0063] Specifically, the fracture communication zone between the well to be shut in and the adjacent production well can be identified according to the seismic curvature, the ant body and the GR result plan in the seismic data. In the analysis process, the geological data, the core data, the drilling logging data and the fracturing production data of the production well can be used for assistance. According to the comprehensive analysis of the geological data, the core data, the drilling logging data and the fracturing production data, the fracture development condition in the fracture communication zone is predicted, and the interwell fracture communication condition is determined, so that the fracture communication zone between the well to be shut in and the adjacent production well is identified according to the fracture development condition and the interwell fracture communication condition of the well to be shut in.

[0064] In an optional embodiment, in the step S102, the slip trend of the fracture of the well to be shut in in the fracture communication zone is determined, and the fracturing channeling risk level of the fracture of the well to be shut in in the fracture communication zone is determined according to the slip trend of the fracture of the well to be shut in in the fracture communication zone, specifically including:

[0065] obtaining a fracture prediction result of the well to be killed according to seismic data, geological data, core data and drilling and logging data of the well to be killed, to obtain a sliding trend of the fracture of the well to be killed in the fracture communication zone;

[0066] determining whether the sliding trend of the fracture of the well to be killed in the fracture communication zone exceeds a preset sliding trend threshold;

[0067] if yes, determining that the pressure channeling risk level of the fracture of the well to be killed in the fracture communication zone is high;

[0068] otherwise, determining that the pressure channeling risk level of the fracture of the well to be killed in the fracture communication zone is low.

[0069] In the embodiments of the present application, the fracture prediction result of the well to be killed can be determined according to the seismic data, geological data, core data and drilling and logging data of the well to be killed. For example, the seismic GR fracture prediction result can be obtained by using the seismic data GR software (i.e. GR Structure fracture system imaging and reservoir connectivity analysis system), so as to obtain the sliding trend of the fracture of the well to be killed in the fracture communication zone according to the seismic GR fracture prediction result, and the pressure channeling risk of the fracture is quantitatively characterized by the sliding trend of the fracture of the well to be killed in the fracture communication zone.

[0070] In the embodiments of the present application, the fracture prediction of the well to be killed can be realized by using a fracture prediction model. The seismic data, geological data, core data and drilling and logging data of the well to be killed are input into the fracture prediction model to obtain the fracture prediction result of the well to be killed. The fracture prediction model can use a machine learning model in the prior art, and the training of the model can be realized by using the method in the prior art. For example, one or more of the seismic data, geological data, core data and drilling and logging data of a plurality of production wells can be obtained, sample data sets are processed, and the machine learning model to be trained is trained based on the sample data sets to obtain the fracture prediction model. The specific implementation method can refer to the detailed description in the prior art, and will not be limited here.

[0071] In the embodiments of the present application, the pressure channeling risk level of the fracture of the well to be killed is determined according to whether the sliding trend of the fracture of the well to be killed in the fracture communication zone exceeds the preset sliding trend threshold. The preset sliding trend threshold can be determined according to the actual situation. For example, if the preset sliding trend threshold is 0.5, the sliding trend of the fracture of the well to be killed in the fracture communication zone is greater than 0.5, it is determined that the pressure channeling risk level of the fracture of the well to be killed in the fracture communication zone is high, and the sliding trend of the fracture of the well to be killed in the fracture communication zone is less than or equal to 0.5, it is determined that the pressure channeling risk level of the fracture of the well to be killed in the fracture communication zone is low.

[0072] In an optional embodiment, in step S103, the position of the drilling pressure complex situation of the production well in the fracture communication zone is determined according to the distance between the position of the drilling pressure complex situation of the production well in the drilling process and the development position of the fracture of the production well, and the reliability evaluation result of the fracture of the production well in the fracture communication zone is determined, specifically including:

[0073] According to the fracturing production data, the position of the drilling pressure complex situation of the production well in the fracture communication zone is obtained by statistics; the drilling pressure complex situation of the production well includes the lost circulation and overflow situation of the production well in the drilling process, and the casing deformation and pressure channeling situation of the production well in the actual fracturing process;

[0074] It is judged whether the distance between the position of the drilling pressure complex situation of the production well and the development position of the fracture of the production well exceeds a preset distance threshold value;

[0075] If yes, the reliability evaluation result of the fracture of the production well in the fracture communication zone is low;

[0076] Otherwise, the reliability evaluation result of the fracture of the production well in the fracture communication zone is high.

[0077] In the embodiments of the present application, the development position of the fracture of the production well is determined according to the fracturing situation analysis of the production well before fracturing, and the specific implementation manner can refer to the detailed description in the prior art, and here, it can not be specifically limited. The preset distance threshold value can be determined according to the actual situation, for example, it can be 20 meters. After the position of the drilling pressure complex situation is determined, the position of the drilling pressure complex situation can be corresponded with the development position of the fracture. If there is a drilling pressure complex situation within 20 meters near the development position of the fracture, it is proved that the reliability evaluation result of the fracture of the production well in the fracture communication zone is high; if there is no drilling pressure complex situation within 20 meters near the development position of the fracture, it is proved that the reliability evaluation result of the fracture of the production well in the fracture communication zone is low.

[0078] In an optional embodiment, in step S104, the pressure channeling identification of the well to be fractured is performed according to the fracture channeling risk level of the well to be fractured in the fracture communication zone and the reliability evaluation result of the fracture of the production well, including:

[0079] According to the fracture channeling risk level of the well to be fractured in the fracture communication zone and the reliability evaluation result of the fracture of the production well, the level of the pressure channeling channel formed when the well to be fractured is fractured is determined;

[0080] According to the level of the pressure channeling channel formed when the well to be fractured is fractured, the pressure channeling risk level of the fracture development section corresponding to the well to be fractured is determined.

[0081] In a specific embodiment, the step of determining the level of the channeling path formed during the fracturing of the well to be shut in according to the risk level of the channeling of the fracture in the fracture communication zone and the reliability evaluation result of the fracture in the production well specifically includes:

[0082] The level of the channeling path formed during the fracturing of the well to be shut in is determined according to the risk level of the channeling of the fracture in the fracture communication zone and the reliability evaluation result of the fracture in the production well and a preset channeling path identification standard, wherein the preset channeling path identification standard includes:

[0083] If the risk level of the channeling of the fracture in the well to be shut in and the reliability evaluation result of the fracture in the production well are both high, the level of the channeling path is level one.

[0084] If only one of the risk level of the channeling of the fracture in the well to be shut in and the reliability evaluation result of the fracture in the production well is high, the level of the channeling path is level two.

[0085] If the risk level of the channeling of the fracture in the well to be shut in and the reliability evaluation result of the fracture in the production well are both low, the level of the channeling path is level three.

[0086] In a specific embodiment, the step of determining the risk level of the channeling of the fracture development section corresponding to the well to be shut in according to the level of the channeling path formed during the fracturing of the well to be shut in specifically includes: if the channeling path is level one, the fracture development section of the well to be shut in is a first-level channeling risk section; if the channeling path is level two, the fracture development section of the well to be shut in is a second-level channeling risk section; and if the channeling path is level three, the fracture development section of the well to be shut in is a third-level channeling risk section.

[0087] In a specific embodiment, after the step S104 of determining the risk level of the channeling of the fracture development section corresponding to the well to be shut in according to the level of the channeling path formed during the fracturing of the well to be shut in, the method can further include:

[0088] A fracturing channeling treatment strategy for the fracture development section is determined according to the risk level of the channeling of the fracture development section of the well to be shut in.

[0089] In the embodiments of the present application, by identifying the channeling risk level of the fracture development section of the well to be fractured, during the fracturing process of the well to be fractured, a corresponding channeling treatment strategy can be taken according to the identified channeling risk level of the fracture development section of the well to be fractured, so as to achieve the purpose of preventing channeling and reducing channeling, and avoid the loss of shale gas production caused by channeling. Specifically, the fracture development section of the well to be fractured can be optimized according to different channeling risk levels. For example, for the first-class channeling risk section, a segment cluster optimization scheme of increasing the single segment fracturing section length by 10-15 m and increasing the cluster spacing by 2-3 m can be used, that is, the single segment fracturing section length is increased by 10-15 m based on the conventional single segment fracturing section length, and the cluster spacing is increased by 2-3 m based on the conventional cluster spacing; for the second-class channeling risk section, a segment cluster optimization scheme of increasing the single segment fracturing section length by 5-10 m and increasing the cluster spacing by 1-2 m can be used, that is, the single segment fracturing section length is increased by 5-10 m based on the conventional single segment fracturing section length, and the cluster spacing is increased by 1-2 m based on the conventional cluster spacing; for the third-class channeling risk section, the segment cluster division scheme is not adjusted, that is, the conventional single segment fracturing section length and the conventional cluster spacing are used.

[0090] In a specific embodiment, after performing the above step S104, determining the channeling risk level of the corresponding fracture development section of the well to be fractured according to the level of the channeling channel formed during the fracturing of the well to be fractured, the method can further include:

[0091] According to the channeling risk level of the fracture development section of the well to be fractured, determining the fracturing channeling prevention measures of the fracture development section.

[0092] In the embodiments of the present application, by identifying the channeling risk level of the fracture development section of the well to be fractured, before fracturing of the well to be fractured, the corresponding channeling prevention measures can be determined according to the identified channeling risk level of the fracture development section of the well to be fractured, and a channeling risk prompt is given, so that the construction personnel can take corresponding measures according to the prompted channeling risk to avoid channeling or reduce the influence degree of channeling. For example, before fracturing of the well to be fractured, the channeling risk level of the fracture development section of the fracturing section is prompted, and the corresponding channeling prevention measures are prompted, wherein the channeling prevention measures can be a prompt to shut in the adjacent production well, a prompt to adjust the fracturing construction process of the fracturing section, or a prompt to strengthen monitoring of the adjacent production well. For example, before fracturing of the production well, the production scale of each adjacent production well of the well to be fractured is obtained, if the production scale of the adjacent production well is small and the channeling risk level of the fracture development section is high, the adjacent production well is prompted to be shut in; before fracturing of the production well, the fracturing construction process scale of the fracturing section of the well to be fractured is reduced according to the channeling risk level of the fracture development section, including reducing the sanding intensity or liquid intensity during fracturing; before fracturing of the production well, the pressure range of the adjacent well pressure monitoring is determined according to the channeling risk level of the fracture development section, the higher the channeling risk level of the fracture development section, the smaller the pressure range of the adjacent well pressure monitoring, so that during the fracturing process, once the pressure change of the adjacent production well exceeds the pressure range, the fracturing well construction parameters can be adjusted in time to effectively prevent the channeling risk.

[0093] Based on the channeling passage identification method provided in the embodiments of the present application, more than 30 shale gas horizontal wells in a certain block in Sichuan Basin are identified for channeling passage and fracturing optimization design, and it is found that after the method is adopted, the channeling degree of the adjacent production well of the well to be fractured in the block during the fracturing process of the well to be fractured is significantly reduced, and the average production is significantly increased. The influence on the adjacent production well during the fracturing process of the well to be fractured is significantly reduced, compared with the production of the adjacent production well during the fracturing process of the well to be fractured before the method is implemented, the average production of the adjacent production well of the well to be fractured for channeling passage identification by adopting the method is increased by 10%, and in the case of channeling, the channeling recovery period of the adjacent production well is significantly shortened.

[0094] Based on the same application concept, a channeling passage identification device is further provided in the embodiments of the present application, which can include:

[0095] The first identification module 101 is configured to identify the fracture communication zone between the well to be fractured and the adjacent production well thereof;

[0096] The first determination module 102 is configured to determine the sliding trend of the fracture of the well to be fractured in the fracture communication zone, and determine the channeling risk level of the fracture of the well to be fractured according to the sliding trend of the fracture of the well to be fractured;
