Abstract

The invention discloses a method for coupling expansion of horizontal well pressure fracture network and production dynamics in unconventional oil and gas reservoirs, belonging to the technical field of oil and gas reservoir development. The invention establishes a complex fracture network model of fracturing horizontal wells in unconventional oil and gas reservoirs based on the fracturing fracture propagation theory; combines the embedded discrete fracture model to build three-dimensional and three-phase seepage mathematical models of fracturing horizontal wells; uses finite difference method and three-dimensional orthogonal cube The grid establishes a fully implicit numerical calculation model and solves iteratively, and accurately predicts the production performance characteristics of fracturing horizontal wells in unconventional oil and gas reservoirs. The invention makes up for the disadvantage that the traditional fracture network expansion model and the production performance prediction model are independent of each other. By combining the fracture expansion model and the production performance prediction model, the integrated simulation of the fracture network expansion and production performance of the horizontal well pressure in unconventional oil and gas reservoirs is realized. predict.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of unconventional oil and gas reservoir exploitation, in particular to a method for coupling expansion of horizontal well pressure fracture network and production dynamics in unconventional oil and gas reservoirs. Background technique [0002] Unconventional oil and gas reservoir resources in my country are huge, which are the main areas for increasing reserves and production at present and in the future. Compared with conventional oil and gas reservoirs, unconventional oil and gas reservoirs have more complex reservoir geological conditions, and have the characteristics of natural fractures, low porosity and low permeability, and extremely low natural production. Field practice shows that horizontal wells with long sections and volume fracturing technology are the main means to obtain industrial productivity in unconventional oil and gas reservoirs. By injecting high-pressure fluid higher than the fracture...
