Low Permeability Reservoirs

Abstract China has abundant low-permeability oil and gas resources. A lot of practice has proved that low-permeability reservoirs must undergo hydraulic fracturing to obtain commercial production capacity. Geomechanical characteristics are the key factor for fracturing. It plays a very important role in the oil field exploration and production. It is not only the driving force for oil and gas migration, but also provides a basis for wellbore stability analysis and drilling optimization design. The state of the formation stress field and the mechanical properties of the rock jointly determine the direction, shape and orientation of the fracture extension of the fracturing. Together it affects the stimulation effect of fracturing. Realizing the high-efficiency development of low-permeability reservoirs is a key and difficult problem facing for oil filed operator. Horizontal wells drilling and hydraulic fracturing are the core technology for increasing single well production in low-permeability reservoirs. The effectiveness of reservoir reconstruction directly determines the production capacity of the reservoir. In order to clarify the influence of static and dynamic geomechanics on the scale of reservoir stimulation in the process of horizontal well fracturing, and ultimately provide effective technical support for the formulation and optimization of reservoir stimulation design. This study is based on the study of single well one-dimensional geomechanics, using the structural characteristics and seismic attributes of low-permeability reservoirs to study the characteristics of the three-dimensional spatial distribution of mechanics. On this basis, combined with real-time fracturing treatment data and micro-seismic monitoring data, dynamic (four-dimensional) stress field simulations are continuously carried out. The research results can be mainly used to guide the optimization of reservoir stimulation and the evaluation of filed development plan.

The well testing of gas-condensate horizontal wells are discussed in the article and the comparative analysis of borehole flow capacity, depending on the mode of it’s operation is presented. Extra attention is focused on the issue of timely identification of the reasons for the reduction of fluid withdrawal from the reservoir. The presence of high skin effect is proved, which confirms the existence of low-permeability of bottomhole formation zone related to condensation in the immediate area of the horizontal wellbore.

Low Permeability Reservoirs

The 21st century witnessed the development of the oil extraction industry in Russia due to the intensifica- tion of its production at the existing traditional fields of Western Siberia, the Volga region and other oil-extracting regions, and due discovering new oil and gas provinces. At that time the path to the development of fields in Eastern Siberia was already paved. The large-scale discoveries of a number of fields made here in the 70s-80s of the 20th century are only being developed now. The process of development itself is rather slow in view of a number of reasons. Create a problem of high cost value of oil extraction in the region. One of the major tasks is obtaining the maximum oil recovery factor while reducing the development costs. The carbonate layer lying within the Katangsky suite is low-permeability, and its inventories are categorised as hard to recover. Now, the object is at a stage of trial development,which foregrounds researches on selecting the effective methods of oil extraction.

Low Permeability Reservoirs

Low-permeability gas reservoirs are influenced by slippage effect (Klinkenberg effect) , which leads to the different of gas in low-permeability and conventional reservoirs. According to the mechanism and mathematical model of slippage effect, the pressure distribution and flow state of flow in low-permeability gas reservoirs, and the capacity of low-permeability gas well are simulated by using the actual production datum.

Exploration And Development

Internationally the research of low permeability oil reservoir is a difficult point in the exploration and development of oil and gas field. This thesis, based on the research methods of low permeability reservoirs at home and abroad, summaries several major problems encountered in the process of low permeability oil exploration and development under the current technical conditions as well as the corresponding, but more effective technical measures that need to be constantly improved. And that exploration and development of low permeability of the reservoir will be the main battle field for some time in the future of oil exploration and development.
