Embodiment 1

[0031] This embodiment provides a carbon dioxide anhydrous sand fracturing method, which includes the following steps:

[0032] Step 1) Select gas wells and reservoirs for carbon dioxide waterless sand fracturing: select gas wells with sand body thickness of 10-25 meters and gas layer thickness of 5-15 meters, porosity greater than 8%, permeability greater than 0.8mD, and gas-bearing Reservoirs with saturation greater than 53%;

[0033] Step 2) Fracturing joints: inject carbon dioxide prefluid and viscosity-lifting agent into the annulus of the oil jacket, and at the same time inject carbon dioxide into the tubing, so that the tubing and tubing annulus can be injected simultaneously during fracturing. The injection displacement of the liquid is greater than the injection displacement of the carbon dioxide in the tubing;

Abstract

The invention provides a carbon dioxide anhydrous sand fracturing method. The method comprises the following steps that (1) a gas well and a reservoir which are subjected to carbon dioxide anhydrous sand fracturing are selected; (2) fracturing for fracture forming is carried out, specifically, carbon dioxide is injected into an oil pipe and oil sleeve annulus at the same time, wherein the injection displacement of carbon dioxide prepad is greater than the injection displacement of carbon dioxide in the oil pipe; (3) a gap of a fracturing crack is filled, specifically, a carbon dioxide sand-carrying solution and a viscosity increasing agent are injected into the oil sleeve annulus; and (4) sand stopping and displacing are carried out. Carbon dioxide is simultaneously injected into the oil pipe and the oil sleeve annulus, and pressure balance is achieved; the viscosity increasing agent is added, so that the viscosity and the sand carrying performance of the carbon dioxide are improved, carbon dioxide anhydrous sand fracturing is realized, and the method has the characteristics of small damage to the reservoir, crack filling with a propping agent, and good crack morphology and stability. According to the method, few additives are used, so that the damage and pollution to the environment and the stratum are reduced, and the cost of fracturing fluid is greatly reduced; and carbon dioxide can adsorb and replace natural gas on rock walls, so that the yield of natural gas is improved.

Description

Technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of oil and gas field fracturing, and specifically relates to a carbon dioxide anhydrous sand adding fracturing method. Background technique [0002] Fracturing is an important way to rebuild low-permeability oil and gas reservoirs and achieve profitable development. Conventional fracturing uses water-based polymer fracturing fluid system for layered fracturing, and fracturing fluid enters the reservoir, especially low-permeability reservoirs. It will cause reservoir damage such as reservoir water sensitivity and water lock, make it difficult for fracturing fluid to flow back, and some fracturing fluid will stay in the formation for a long time, which will reduce the permeability of the reservoir matrix and reduce the effect of fracturing process transformation. [0003] Compared with water-based polymer fracturing fluids, the carbon dioxide waterless sand fracturing process can achieve "waterless fracturing", elimi...
