The invention relates to a visual
simulation shale micro-crack plugging capacity test
system and a visual
simulation shale micro-crack plugging capacity test method. Displacement evaluation experiment is performed on a single or combined micro-crack
rock sample by a solution or a
drilling fluid which contains the plugging agents with different concentrations and different types at different experiment conditions, such as pressure differences and times, indexes, such as the
invasion depth, are compared, the formation conditions of inner mud cakes in drilling are directly described, and
microscopic observation and analysis are performed on
percolation substances invade into the micro-cracks by utilizing amplification imaging instruments, such as a high-definition
microscope, so that the plugging mechanisms and the effects of various
drilling fluid plugging agents and drilling fluids are analyzed and researched intuitively and microscopically, a proper
drilling fluid plugging agent is selected preferably, a drilling
fluid system formula is optimized, the problem about the experimental conditions that the visual
simulation evaluation cannot be performed on shale micro-crack plugging in the past is solved, and a new evaluation
experimental research means is provided for related research and production in the technical field of fractured shale strata borehole wall stability in
petroleum engineering.
