The invention discloses a shallow
shale gas self-sealing reservoir formation identification method, which comprises the following steps: firstly, carrying out dual-energy CT scanning on a shale full-
diameter core sample to obtain DEI values, and the difference of the DEI values embodies different lithologic (
physical property) longitudinal change rules, i.e., different shale lithologic grain interlayer interlayers, different shale lithologic grain interlayer interlayers, different shale lithologic grain interlayer interlayers, different shale lithologic grain interlayer interlayers, different shale lithologic grain interlayer interlayers, and different shale lithologic grain interlayer interlayers; the development of the top and bottom plates of the high-quality shale reservoir enables the
shale gas to have a self-sealing reservoir forming characteristic; then simulating the adsorbability of the
shale gas through laboratory thermal
cracking to obtain a shale gas adsorbability rule, and identifying whether the shale gas has a self-sealing reservoir forming characteristic or not. And finally, measuring the
distribution rule of the microscopic
porosity and the
pore diameter through a
scanning electron microscope, judging whether the shale layer is a non-or ultra-
low permeability layer under the formation
temperature and pressure condition or not, and identifying whether the shale gas has the self-sealing reservoir forming characteristic or not. According to the method, the self-sealing reservoir forming of the shale gas is identified in multiple aspects, and the method provides effective
technical support for evaluating the favorable layer section of the shale and is of great significance in improving the exploration and development effect of the shale gas.
