Abstract

The invention provides a simulation experiment method of coal seam hydraulic fracture, comprising the following steps of: (a) analyzing natural fracture shape characteristics of a coal rock in a stratum to be simulated, selecting a coal rock material for making a simulation specimen, processing the coal rock material into a hexahedral block according to the natural fracture shape characteristics,and selecting a coating layer carrying out external casting on the block to form the simulation specimen; (b) selecting fluorescent powder as a tracer, and then preparing fracturing fluid; and (c) performing a simulation fracturing experiment with the simulation specimen and the fracturing fluid and acquiring image information of a hydraulic fracture shape and a fracturing fluid swept region after the experiment. In terms of brittle and fragile coal rock with difficulty in processing, after the coating layer is cast by the method disclosed by the invention, the specimen has whole smooth and regular appearance, and the stratification and cutting positions of the coal rock can be well controlled. When the experiment result is acquired, the range of the hydraulic fracture can be clearly displayed by the fluorescent powder, and in particular the micro-fracture that cannot be viewed by the naked eyes can be displayed.

Description

Technical field [0001] The invention relates to a coalbed methane hydraulic fracturing production-increasing technology, in particular to a coalbed hydraulic fracturing simulation experiment method. Background technique [0002] Large-scale true triaxial hydraulic fracturing experiment is a method to study hydraulic fracturing technology in the laboratory. At present, with the rise of coalbed methane resource development, people have conducted extensive research on coalbed methane mining and production increase. Practice has proved that hydraulic fracturing technology is a technology suitable for increasing the production of coalbed methane. Therefore, in order to study the mechanism of CBM hydraulic fracturing stimulation, laboratory simulation experiments are needed. [0003] The rock properties of coal rock and oil field oil and gas reservoirs are significantly different. Coal rock has a large number of bedding, cleat structural characteristics and brittle and soft physical pr...
