页岩气勘探开发对地球物理技术的需求

Needs of geophysical technologies for shale gas exploration

近几年来,伴随着建设低碳经济的需要和对清洁能源需求的增长,页岩气产业发展迅速升温,特别是北美页岩气的发展已经改变了现今能源供应格局。我国页岩气资源潜力巨大,开发前景广阔,已经引起人们的高度重视。我国页岩气勘探开发仍处于起步阶段,特别是地球物理技术在页岩气勘探开发中究竟具有什么样的作用,还存在一些困惑。本文通过页岩气地球物理技术的需求分析和对未来发展的展望,明确指出地球物理技术作为页岩气储层评价和增产改造的关键技术,将在页岩气勘探开发中发挥重要的作用。

As the needs of low carbon economics and the demands of clear energy keep increasing,shale gas exploration has greatly developed in recent years,especially in North America.With enormous potential reserves and bright prospect,shale gas exploration in China draws more attention of the industry.At present,the exploration and development in our country is still in the primary stage.Functions of exploration geophysics in the domains remain unclear.With analysis of requirements of geophysical technologies in shale gas E&P,this paper discuss a few key methods for reservoir characterization and production improvement,which will pay an important role in shale gas E&P in the future.
