A quantitative evaluation for well pattern adaptability in ultra-low permeability oil reservoirs:A case study of Triassic Chang 6 and Chang 8 reservoirs in Ordos Basin

Based on the previous studies and development practice in recent 10 years, a quantitative evaluation method for the adaptability of well patterns to ultra-low permeability reservoirs was established using cluster analysis and gray correlation method, and it includes 10 evaluation parameters in the four aspects of optimal evaluation parameters, determination of weights for evaluation parameters, development stage division, and determination of classification coefficients. This evaluation method was used to evaluate the well pattern adaptability of 13 main ultra-low permeability reservoirs in Triassic Chang 6 and Chang 8 of Ordos Basin. Three basic understandings were obtained: Firstly, the well pattern for ultra-low permeability type-I reservoirs has generally good adaptability, with proper well pattern forms and well pattern parameters. Secondly, square inverted nine-spot well pattern is suitable for reservoirs with no fractures; rhombic inverted nine-spot injection pattern is suitable for reservoirs with some fractures; and rectangular well pattern is suitable for reservoirs with rich fractures. Thirdly, for the ultra-low permeability type-Ⅱ and type-Ⅲ reservoirs, with the principles of well pattern form determination, the row spacing needs to be optimized further to improve the level of development of such reservoirs.

Land Use of the Three Gorges Reservoir Area and the Effect on Its Landscape Pattern in the Recent 50 Years

The paper makes detailed analysis on the changing processes of the main types of land use in Three Gorges Reservoir Area through the techniques of RS （Remote Sense） and GIS （Geography Information System）. Based on the theory of landscape ecology, many types of landscape pattern indexes are calculated and made correlation analysis. The results indicate that： in 1995 the ecological environment of Three Gorges Reservoir Area was the most vulnerable in the recent 50 years, but resumed in 2002; the landscape pattern diversity index, fractal dimension index and fragmentation index has close correlation with the area of land use/cover change （LUCC）. The research also releases that the increase of the cultivated land, grassland and construction land deteriorates the landscape ecological pattern, while the increase of forest land area will help restore the landscape ecological pattern to its original state. The rapid change of grassland is an important index of the change of landscape pattern, because it has the most effect on change of landscape pattern index.

中上扬子地区震旦纪灯影组沉积期碳酸盐岩台地古地理格局及有利储集相带分布规律

【目的】中上扬子地区灯影组沉积期碳酸盐岩台地古地理格局及有利储集相带发育分布规律尚存争议,阻碍了灯影组油气勘探领域由绵阳—长宁拉张槽两侧向其他广大地区拓展。【方法】通过中上扬子地区灯影组30余条剖面(钻井)开展岩石类型划分及沉积相分析,【结果】进一步明确丘滩相以块状砂屑/鲕粒白云岩及柱状、穹窿状叠层石白云岩为特征,呈环带状分布在中上扬子台地(或内缓坡)边缘,向外过渡为中—外缓坡风暴岩或斜坡—盆地相区的滑塌角砾白云岩、泥质白云岩、硅质岩等。由于丘滩的阻挡作用,其内侧以低能的潮坪及潟湖沉积环境为主:其中潮坪相主要发育微生物纹层白云岩、穹窿—缓波状叠层石白云岩、凝块石白云岩夹砂屑白云岩、泥晶白云岩,纵向上常常形成米级—厘米级旋回;潟湖相主要由泥晶白云岩、含球粒/砂屑泥晶白云岩组成。相带时空分布表明灯影组在中上扬子地区总体呈现出进积的沉积趋势,内部包含2.5个层序,即三次进积(变浅)和两次退积(变深)旋回。【结论】由于灯影组在台地边缘—斜坡区域普遍遭到剥蚀,以及灯影组沉积期上扬子台地范围远超目前的板块边界,灯影组上部灯四段很少发现高能丘滩相带。在此背景下,局部地区(如松林—岩孔地区、中扬子台地周缘)灯影组中下部灯一段—灯二段(或蛤蟆井段、石板滩段)发育的丘滩相,是重要的有利储集相带。此外,处于海退体系域的灯二段中下部和灯四段上部(或相当层位)在中上扬子台地(或内缓坡)内部广泛发育微生物白云岩,也为储层发育有利相带。在中上扬子台地微生物白云岩广泛分布的背景下,进一步分析优质储层发育机理与分布规律才是找到油气接替区的关键。

Analysis of Landscape Patterns and the Trend of Forest Resources in the Three Gorges Reservoir Area

In this paper, first, based on landscape ecology theories, we respectively selected indexes from 4 aspects, area, edge, shape, and density, of the landscape type to describe the status of forest landscape patterns, and we established the stability index of landscape pattern (LSBI). Then, based on geo-statistical theories, we divided the forest in the reservoir area into 3990 grids of 4 km × 4 km using network technology and employing ordinary Kriging modelling to make trend surface analyses of the forest resources in the reservoir area. Finally, based on statistics principles, we used sampling theory to systematically extract 227 samples to obtain 7 periods of remote-sensing data from 1990a to 2012a. Then, we classified and extracted the forest in the sampling area using remote sensing, and we analysed each result with an Autoregressive Integrated Moving Average Model (ARIMA) time-series model. The results indicated the following: 1) the landscape structure of the reservoir area was primarily needle-leaved forest, broad-leaved forest and bush forest, and the mixed stands and bamboo stands were secondary;2) the difference of the forest landscape pattern stability in the reservoir area, in all directions, was not significant, but the southern region was slightly more stable;and 3) the stability of the forest landscape pattern in the reservoir area increased from 1990a to 2012a. It kept increasing until 2016a. This study provides a theoretical basis for the reasonable management and decisions about the forest resources in the Three Gorges Reservoir Area. Meanwhile, it also explores methods for relevant research and has practical significance.

Adaptability of Development Methods for Offshore Gas Cap Edge Water Reservoirs under Different Permeability Levels

The BZ 34-1 oilfield is a typical gas cap edge water reservoir in the Bohai oilfield. The main characteristics of the oilfield were multi-phase sand body stacking and the sand body was composed of three parts: gas cap, oil reservoir, and edge water. The actual production site results show that the permeability difference of multi-layer sand bodies has a serious impact on the development effect. This article establishes a typical reservoir model numerical model based on the total recovery degree of the reservoir and the recovery degree of each layer, and analyzes the impact of permeability gradient. As the permeability gradient increases, the total recovery degree of all four well patterns decreases, and the total recovery degree gradually decreases. The recovery degree of low permeability layers gradually decreases, and the recovery degree of high permeability layers gradually increases. As the permeability gradient increases, the degree of recovery gradually decreases under different water contents. As the permeability gradient increases, the reduction rate of remaining oil saturation in low permeability layers is slower, while the reduction rate of remaining oil saturation in high permeability layers was faster. By analyzing the impact of permeability gradient on the development effect of oil fields, we could further deepen our understanding of gas cap edge water reservoirs and guide the development of this type of oil field.

Experiments on the influences of well pattern on water flooding characteristics of dissolution vug-cave reservoir

Based on the similarity criterion, volcanic rock samples were taken from outcrops to make experimental models. Water flooding experiments of five-spot well pattern, nine-spot well pattern, five-spot to nine-spot well pattern, the relationship between relative well and fracture positions, and injection rate in dissolution vug-cave reservoirs with/without fractures were carried out to analyze variation regularities of development indexes, find out development characteristics of water flooding with different well patterns and sort out the optimal water flooding development mode. For dissolution vug-cave reservoirs without fractures, five-spot well pattern waterflooding has very small sweeping area, serious water channeling and low oil recovery. When the well pattern was adjusted from five-spot to nine-spot well pattern, oil recovery could be largely improved, but the corner well far from the injector is little affected. In dissolution vug-cave reservoirs with fractures, when the injector and producer are not connected by fractures, the fractures could effectively connect the poorly linked vugs to improve the development effect of water flooding. Whether there are fractures or not in dissolution vug-cave reservoirs, the development effect of nine-spot well-pattern is much better than that of five-spot well pattern and five-spot to nine-spot well pattern, this is more evident when there are fractures, and the edge well has better development indexes than corner well. At the high-water cut stage of water flooding with nine-spot well pattern, the oil recovery can be further improved with staggered line-drive pattern by converting the corner well into injection well. It is helpful to increase the oil production of corner well of nine-spot well pattern by increasing the injection rate, and improve ultimate oil recovery, but the water-free production period would be greatly shortened and water-free recovery would decrease.

鄂尔多斯盆地米探1井在奥陶系马家沟组四段(以下简称马四段)白云岩获得天然气勘探新发现,展示出马四段良好的天然气勘探前景,但马四段白云岩储层发育特征及其分布规律不清,制约了该层系下一步的天然气勘探部署。为此,基于岩心、薄片、工业CT、U-Pb定年、物性分析及地球化学特征等资料,系统研究了马四段白云岩储层发育特征及成因机制,并预测了该盆地白云岩储层分布和天然气有利勘探区带。研究结果表明:(1)马四段主要发育丘滩相白云岩储层和斑状白云岩储层,其中丘滩相白云岩储层岩性为砂砾屑白云岩、细—中晶白云岩、粉—细晶白云岩和叠层石白云岩,斑状白云岩储层岩性为斑状粉—细晶白云岩、斑状粉晶白云岩和斑状灰质白云岩。(2)丘滩相白云岩储层储集空间主要为晶间(溶)孔,含少量溶蚀孔洞、残余粒间孔和微裂缝,平均孔隙度为5.06%;斑状白云岩储层储集空间以晶间孔为主,含少量晶间溶孔和微裂缝,平均孔隙度为2.46%。(3)丘滩相白云岩储层发育主要受微生物丘和颗粒滩控制,并经历了准同生白云石化作用和埋藏白云石化作用的改造,斑状白云岩储层发育主要受生物扰动作用、准同生白云石化作用和埋藏白云石化作用控制。(4)构造古地理格局和海平面升降变化共同控制了丘滩体发育、生物扰动作用程度和白云石化流体的形成。结论认为,马四段优质白云岩储层主要沿中央古隆起和神木—志丹低隆起规模分布,其中神木—志丹低隆起马四段白云岩储层位于岩性相变带上,其储盖配置关系好,是天然气富集区,预测有利区储层面积18 000 km^(2)。

四川盆地嘉陵江组天然气成藏主控因素与勘探方向

嘉陵江组是四川盆地天然气勘探的传统层系,近年来在川北、川西南等地区连续获得发现,但盆地内仍有大面积的勘探空白区,亟需深化对该层系天然气成藏规律的认识,明确成藏主控因素,进而指出未来的勘探方向。利用天然气地球化学等分析测试,结合构造恢复、盆地模拟等技术,以气源分析为基础,以典型气藏解剖为核心,结合对嘉陵江组成藏条件认识,通过对成藏过程的分析探讨了成藏主控因素,并建立了成藏模式。四川盆地嘉陵江组天然气主要来自下部的原油裂解气,嘉陵江组具有多套优质烃源岩供烃、发育多类型碳酸盐岩储层、通源断裂有效沟通气源的良好成藏条件,主生油期古构造、调整期构造及通源断裂、有利储层类型是嘉陵江组天然气成藏的主控因素;嘉陵江组具有“多源形成古油藏—古油藏裂解供气—通源断裂输导—晚期调整成藏”的成藏模式。基于此指出,分布于川西、川北等地区山前带,主生油期、气藏调整成藏期均处于相对高部位,发育通源断裂、保存条件较好的构造—岩性复合气藏是勘探的首选方向;分布于川东高陡构造带构造稳定区及向斜区的孔隙型岩性气藏是未来的主要勘探方向。

Remaining Oil Distribution Law and Potential Tapping Strategy of Horizontal Well Pattern in Narrow Oil Rim Reservoir with Gas Cap and Edge Water

For thin oil rim reservoir with gas cap and edge water, it is helpful to improve the development effect to find out the distribution law of remaining oil in this kind of reservoirs. For this reason, taking the narrow oil rim reservoir with gas cap and edge water of Oilfield A in Bohai Sea as a case, the main controlling factors, including reservoir structure, fault, gas cap energy, edge water energy and well pattern, affecting the distribution of residual oil in this kind of reservoir were analyzed by using the data of core, logging, paleogeomorphology and production. Then, the distribution law of remaining oil was summarized. Generally, the remaining oil distribution is mainly potato-shaped or strip-shaped in plane. Vertically, it depends on the energy of gas cap and edge water. For the reservoir with big gas gap and weak edge water, the remaining oil mainly lies in the bottom of oil column. And for the reservoir with small gas gap and strong edge water, the remaining oil mainly locates at the top of oil column. Aiming at different distribution modes of remaining oil, the corresponding potential tapping strategies of horizontal wells are put forward: in the late stage of development, for the reservoir with big gas gap and weak edge water, the remaining oil concentrates at the bottom of the oil column, and the position of horizontal well should be placed at the lower 1/3 to the lower 1/5 of the oil column;for the reservoir with small gas cap and strong edge water, the remaining oil locates at the top of the oil column, and the position of horizontal well should be put at the upper 1/5 to the upper 1/3 of the oil column height, vertically. Based on the study on remaining oil of Oilfield A, a potential tapping strategy of well pattern thickening and vertical position optimization of horizontal well was proposed. This strategy guided the efficient implementation of the comprehensive adjustment plan of the oilfield. Moreover, 18 infill development wells were implemented in Oilfield A, and the average production of the infill wells is 2.1 times that of the surrounding old wells. It is estimated that the ultimate recovery factor of the oilfield will reach 33.9%, which is 2.3% higher than that before infilling wells. This study can be used for reference in the development of similar reservoirs.

Classification of carbonate gas condensate reservoirs using well test and production data analyses

Carbonate reservoir patterns play an important role in the production performance of oil and gas wells,and it is usually classified through static data analysis which cannot reflect the actual well performance.This paper takes the Tazhong No.1 gas field in the Tarim Basin,China as an example to investigate the classification of carbonate reservoirs.The classification method mainly combines well test analysis with production analysis—especially the Blasingame type curve method.Based on the characteristics of type curves for well test analysis and the Blasingame method,the relationship between the type curves and reservoir pattern was established.More than 20 wells were analyzed and the reservoirs were classified into 3 major patterns with 7 sub-classes.Furthermore,the classification results were validated by dynamic performance analysis of wells in the Tazhong No.1 gas field.On the basis of the classification results,well stimulation（i.e.water flooding in a single well） was carried out in three volatile-oil wells,and the oil recovery increased by up to 20%.
