ABSTRACT:In Jinshan gasfield,large-scale tight sandstone reservoirs with low permeability are developed in the Shahezi Formation.In particular,there is better exploration potential in some belts with relatively high porosity and permeability,and industrial gas flow was obtained from many wells.In this study,both reservoir characteristics and diagenesis of the Shahezi Formation were analyzed on the basis of thin-section and casting thin-section identification,SEM,X diffraction of clay,and some petrophysical data.Results show that(1)this reservoir is mainly composed of medium-to coarse-grained lithic arkose and secondly arkoses,and its space includes primary intergranular pore,enlarged intergranular pore,feldspathic intragranular dissolution pore,lithic intragranular dissolution pore,and dissolution fracture;(2)it dominantly experienced compaction and pressure solution,cementation and metasomatism,and dissolution in which,diagenesis affected petrophysical properties evidently,both compaction and cementation brought about a decrease of large amount of primary pores to further make these properties poorer,and dissolution formed plenty of secondary pores
or even dissolution pores,which might advance these properties a lot and control the development of relatively favorable reservoirs.

ABSTRACT:There are mainly tight reservoirs with low porosity and permeability developed in Qianfoya Formation.And the type and space of reservoir rock are various and complex.Furthermore,different resistivity appears in well logging because of various reservoir fluids.As a result,it is very difficult to accurately calculate mineral composition of reservoir rock and petrophysical parameters of reservoir.In this study,through core calibration well-logging data,a model to calculate porosity was established at first for different lithology and various types of reservoirs on the basis of rock physics volume model and multiple-parameters mathematical statistical analysis;and then,another model to calculate permeability was developed according to a relationship between porosity and permeability;thirdly,some parameters about formation resistivity or formation water were determined for Qianfoya Formation;at last,a method to calculate saturation suitable for this formation was also set up. These parameters calculated by established models were compared to those obtained from core analysis.Consequently,higher accuracy in well-logging calculation can meet the demand in calculating reservoir parameters.

ABSTRACT:To study trap is a significant component of making petroleum geology clear.Types of oil and gas reservoirs can be classified by means of trap features.Meanwhile,different features can reflect various origins to form these reservoirs.So,trap elements are the important index to evaluate an exploration potential for a lot ofoil and gas basins.In order to further understand the characteristics of oil and gas resources in Weihe Basin,the basin structure,sedimentary history,and many data from drilling and well logging in some geothermal wells were analyzed on the basis of previous achievements.Results show that(1)there are different trap types developed,including structural traps(anticline and fault traps),lithological traps(lithologic updip pinch-out traps and sand lens lithologic traps),stratigraphic traps(only stratigraphic overlapping traps),and compound traps(structural-lithological compound traps and structural-stratigraphic compound traps);and(2)different trap types are located at different zones or strata.Some deep and highmaturity pyrolysis CH4and He traps are located at steep slope area of southern basin;and the main types are fault traps and their compound traps.In addition,shallow biogas traps are mainly situated at the steep slope area of northern Gushi depression,and the main type is lithological trap.

ABSTRACT:For most gas wells,flowing back after fracturing is a vital part of stimulation,which may affect directly a fracturing effect.Core experiments show that the main factors influencing flowback velocity are the start-up pressure caused by fracturing-fluid filtration and the flowback differential pressure;and the proppant backflow is influenced by formation closure pressure and the viscosity of gel breaking fluid.Due to strong water sensitivity and severe water-blocking damage existing in many tight sandstone gas reservoirs of western Sichuan Basin,a rapid drainage is needed to reduce this damage.Therefore,an efficient flowback technology of horizontal well is proposed.Firstly,liquid nitrogen energized-assisted drainage is adopted to provide a higher differential pressure of flowback,and a mode of accompanied injection with“stepped”discharge reduction is optimized;secondly,fiber sanding is used to improve the stability of proppant in fractures,and during a staged fractureing,a certain proportion of tail chase should be implemented in the final operation of every stage.This technology has been applied to over 30 wells in middle-shallow layers,resulting in improvement of flowback velocity and final flowback rate.

ABSTRACT:In mud shale,there are large amounts of water-sensible clay minerals.When in contact with drilling fluid,the mud shale interacts with drilling fluid each other,which may lead to swelling due to hydration.This alters the stress distribution near borehole.And one problem of borehole instability in mud shale becomes more serious than that of stress instability in conventional constant elastic parameters.So,it’s more difficult to predict borehole collapse cycle.Our study deems to establish a quantitative correlation between borehole stability and change of drilling-fluid soaking-time.To make rock mechanical parameters clear is very important in this correlation.So,through some experiments,the first relationship that these parameters changes with soaking time is established;and then,the second one that collapse pressure varies with time is set up;at last,the third one that collapse width changes with soak time may be gained.It’s demonstrated that one cycle should be no obvious change that the width increases.At this time,borehole stress reaches a balance again.This procedure avoids a complicated mechanical and chemical match,and finally can realize an aim to predict the collapse cycle very accurately.

ABSTRACT:In micro-flow controlled drilling technology,downhole complicated conditions are mainly estimated by real-time monitoring of inlet and outlet flowing variation of drilling fluid,and wellhead back pressure is adjusted through the opening control of throttling devices.However,by downhole micro-flow tool,the function of real-time transmission can be achieved to provide a guarantee for controlling micro-flow rate efficiently and accurately.Thus,a real-time transmission system of downhole micro-flow measurement is designed.With the system,the signal of downhole tester can be transferred to the ground through MWD,providing some parameters about back pressure and flow control.Its main advantage is the fast processing for accidents of downhole overflow and lost circulation.If there is no accident,it just needs to maintain the stability of annular flow rate and annular pressure;but if many accidents related to pressure occur,the mechanism of pressure control will start to adjust downhole flow and pressure through estimating the annular flow variation and the gas content of invading fluids combining with wellhead parameters.

ABSTRACT:Shale gas produced from reservoirs often contains large amount of acid gas which may corrode pipelines and equipments during gathering and transportation.Thus,it should be purified to remove the acid gas.In this study,HYSYS 8.4 is applied to shale Block 1 for simulated calculation of DEA acid-gas removal technical process;the plate number of absorption and generation towers is fixed;and the acid-gas load in DEA solution and the variation rule of total energy consumption are observed through changing the circulation rate of DEA solution and the DEA mass fraction. Results show that reducing the circulation rate and mass fraction can increase the acid-gas load,and significantly lower the total energy consumption.Moreover,by parameter optimization of acid-gas removal technical process,the operation costs have been reduced with a 5.9%increase in acid-gas load and a 10.6%decrease in total energy consumption.

ABSTRACT:Shale gas development in America has been greatly affected by the drop of oil price.Whether same problem will occur in China and how the international oil price fluctuation will affect the economic benefits brought by shale gas development and utilization become problems urgently to be answered.In this respect, the paper takes the shale gas output,number of drilled wells and single-well investment scale in Jiaoshiba Block of Fuling Shale Gas Field,Chongqing as examples and calculates the economic benefits brought by shale gas development and utilization in China under the fluctuation of international crude oil price.Results show that on the premise that the investment to one single shale gas well is RMB70 million,if the crude oil price fluctuates between USD40~100/bbl,shale gas development will be more beneficial than crude oil import no matter fiscal subsidies are considered or not.But if the crude oil price fluctuates around USD40/bbl,the shale gas sale price will not make shale gas utilization more beneficial than crude oil import.The central government subsidies(RMB0.4/m3)provided to shale gas development will be transferred to shale gas utilization and it will be favorable to improvement of shale gas utilization benefits.
