Cooper Basin

Over the past decade, there has been a paradigm shift in the exploitation strategy in North American tight gas plays from vertical to horizontal wells. This shift has yet to occur in Australia. The Cooper Basin has vast amounts of contingent and prospective tight gas resources that have yet to be unlocked commercially. These resources continue to be developed primarily with hydraulic fracture stimulated vertical wells. Operators have yet to challenge the status quo and test the Cooper Basin tight gas potential with a drilled, completed and tested horizontal well. There are many advantages to horizontal well developments, from the ability to target a specific high graded reservoir unit to increased capital efficiency. Operators need to break away from convention and take a new approach to Cooper Basin tight gas exploration and development in the quest to demonstrate commerciality. A review of the inherent challenges in Cooper Basin gas field developments and the current exploitation strategies employed in analogous tight gas plays have been integrated to produce a pragmatic workflow to identify potential reservoir units that would benefit from a change in development strategy.

Hydraulic fracturing horizontal well is the key technology of tight gas development. After fracturing, the gas well shows the characteristics of great difference in production energy and many factors affecting production capacity. Therefore, taking 10 fractured horizontal wells in JQ gas field in Sichuan Basin as an example, comprehensively considering the influence of geological and engineering factors, and based on the statistical analysis of gas well productivity and the laws of various index parameters, 17 geological and engineering parameters were selected, and the main factors controlling productivity were studied by grey correlation method. The results show that the tight gas fracturing horizontal well can obtain high production, which is jointly determined by geological and engineering factors. The five main control factors affecting the productivity of tight gas fracturing horizontal well are as follows: proppant type, preflush, ϕ·h. Sand volume and reservoir volume.
