Problems solved by technology

Both the steady-state method and the dynamic method do not consider the influence of rock morphology characteristics such as internal structure and pore distribution on the relative permeability curve, and the calculated relative permeability curves are often quite different from the measured curves.

Abstract

The invention discloses a digital imaging technology-based method for calculating relative permeability of a compact core. The digital imaging technology-based method comprises the following steps ofS1, preparing a compact core small column sample conforming to resolution requirement; S2, scanning and building a digital core by MicroCT-400; S3, performing statistic analysis on a parameter for reflecting rock pole structure and shape characteristic according to the digital core; S4, calculating tortuosity fractal dimension DT and porosity fractal dimension Df by a 3D image fractal box dimension algorithm; and S5, performing analysis statistic on maximum pore equivalent diameter Lambda<max> and minimum pore equivalent diameter Lambda<min> by a label.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of analyzing the microscopic physical properties of tight rocks, in particular to a method for calculating the relative permeability of tight rock cores based on digital imaging technology. Background technique [0002] Tight reservoirs are currently the focus of research on the development of unconventional oil and gas resources, and have broad development prospects. The flow of oil and gas in low-permeability tight reservoirs is often accompanied by non-Darcy flow phenomenon. In order to effectively characterize the low-velocity non-Darcy flow effect, a threshold pressure gradient is introduced. Due to the low permeability and the existence of threshold pressure gradient, the measurement of relative permeability curve takes a long time and has poor accuracy. Therefore, how to establish a set of relative permeability calculation methods considering the low permeability characteristics of porous media is very critica...
