压裂液返排与页岩气生产阶段的压裂裂缝应力敏感差异研究

Study on difference of hydraulic fracture stress sensitivity during fracturing fluid flowback stage and shale gas production stage

  • 摘要: 页岩气多段压裂水平井的压裂主裂缝具有强应力敏感性,压裂液返排和页岩气生产阶段压裂主裂缝的应力敏感性有明显差异,研究两个阶段主裂缝的应力敏感性差异对页岩气井压裂返排制度优化和压裂效果评估具有重要参考意义。为此,本文基于渗流理论分别建立了压裂液返排阶段和页岩气生产阶段考虑主裂缝应力敏感性的渗流模型,并通过定义新拟压力进行了线性化求解,引入了改进压力反褶积算法分别归一化压裂液返排和页岩气生产阶段震荡且存在误差的变流量变压力生产动态数据,最终形成了基于特征曲线分析的页岩气井压裂液返排与页岩气生产阶段压裂裂缝应力敏感性差异评估方法。利用该方法分别对Duvernay页岩气井返排阶段和生产阶段的生产动态数据进行了分析,首次同时解释出了两个阶段反映压裂裂缝应力敏感性的渗透率模量,发现返排阶段的压裂裂缝渗透率模量约为页岩气生产阶段的3倍,与室内实验数据分析结果一致;分别得到了两个阶段现场真实井底流压与压裂裂缝导流能力的对应关系曲线;考虑压裂裂缝应力敏感性解释出的初始裂缝导流能力均强于不考虑压裂裂缝应力敏感性的解释结果;不考虑压裂裂缝应力敏感性会严重影响页岩气井日产量递减的解释结果,而对于累积产量,在生产时间70天左右之前影响较大,随着生产时间继续增加,影响可忽略不计。

     

    Abstract: The hydraulic fractures of multi-stage fractured horizontal wells in shale gas reservoirs have strong stress sensitivity, and the stress sensitivity of hydraulic fractures is obviously different during fracturing fluid flowback stage and shale gas production stage. Studying the difference of stress sensitivity of hydraulic fractures during the two stages is of great reference significance for the evaluation of fracturing effect and the optimization of fracturing system of shale gas wells. Firstly, based on the seepage flow theory, the seepage flow models considering the stress sensitivity of hydraulic fractures during the fracturing fluid flowback stage and the shale gas production stage are established respectively. By defining the new pseudo pressure, the models are linearized, and their pressure solutions are obtained. Secondly, the improved pressure deconvolution algorithm is introduced to normalize the dynamic production data of variable flow rate and variable pressure with oscillation and errors during the two stages respectively. Finally, a typical curve analysis method is developed to evaluate the difference of hydraulic fracture stress sensitivity during the two stages. By using the method, analysis of dynamic production data from fracturing fluid flowback stage and shale gas production stage is performed respectively for a well in Duvernay shale gas reservoir. The permeability modulus that represents the hydraulic fracture stress sensitivity during the two stages is interpreted simultaneously for the first time. It is found that the permeability modulus of hydraulic fracture during the flowback stage is about 3 times that in the shale gas production stage, which is consistent with the analysis result of laboratory experimental data. Curves for the relationship between the real bottom hole flowing pressure and the fracture conductivity during the two stages are obtained. It is also found that the initial fracture conductivity interpreted by considering the stress sensitivity of hydraulic fractures is stronger than that interpreted without considering the stress sensitivity of hydraulic fractures. In addition, not considering the stress sensitivity of hydraulic fractures during the shale gas production stage will seriously affect the interpretation results of daily shale gas production decline; however, it only has a great impact on the cumulative production before about 70 days of production time, but as the production time continues to increase, its impact is negligible.
