Abstract

The invention discloses a branch horizontal well exploitation method based on fractal dimension. The method is implemented in the specific steps that firstly, the theoretical value of the shale gas yield of a branch horizontal well is calculated; secondly, according to the theoretical value, the branch horizontal well goes into operation according to daily actual yield, a curve chart of the daily actual yield and time of the branch horizontal well is drawn, when trip points appear in the curve chart, the curve chart is adjusted till no trip points appear in the curve chart, and when cumulative water yield is equal to critical water yield, the branch horizontal well is scrapped. Adjustment is conducted after trip points are generated, shale gas can conveniently carry produced water in a horizontal well shaft, damage caused when gas and water mixtures go back to the well bottom is reduced, and accumulation of the produced water at the well bottom is reduced, so that maintenance expenses are reduced, efficiency is high, and maintenance cost is saved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of shale gas exploitation operations, and relates to a branched horizontal well exploitation method based on fractal dimension. Background technique [0002] In shale gas development, drilling branch wells on the basis of horizontal wells can increase the length of the target layer, increase the oil drainage area, and increase oil and gas production. The technology is developing rapidly and has entered the stage of large-scale application. At present, branched horizontal well technology is an effective means of exploiting shale gas reservoirs. In the exploitation of shale gas wells, in order to obtain the maximum cumulative production, generally, one method is to control the pressure at the bottom of the horizontal well of the gas well, and the other method is to control the wellhead flow rate of the gas well to be constant. [0003] However, the existing shale gas branched horizontal well production metho...
