致密油藏注水诱导裂缝井间干扰试井分析方法

Interwell Interference Well Test Analysis Method for Waterflood-Induced Fractures in Tight Oil Reservoirs

  • 摘要: 致密油藏注水开发过程中,由于储层的非均质性,在渗透率较高的河道方向容易形成高渗透通道,并产生诱导裂缝。然而,现有试井解释方法无法解释水驱诱导裂缝条件下井间干扰试井资料。本文考虑水驱诱导裂缝的延伸,建立了裂缝尖端应力场模型耦合的受邻井干扰的注水诱导裂缝数值试井模型,采用非结构网格和离散裂缝模型(DFM)表征动态裂缝,绘制了试井典型曲线分析图版并进行敏感性分析。结果表明:较高的注入量,更容易使诱导裂缝开启和延伸,当诱导裂缝多次激活天然裂缝时,压力导数曲线在线性流阶段呈现多条折线上升形态。存在邻井干扰时,邻井井距越小、注入量越大,压力导数曲线下掉时间越早。采用矿场实例验证了本文方法的适用性和可靠性。

     

    Abstract: The high-permeability channels are prone to form along the direction of channels with relatively high permeability, and induced fractures are subsequently generated due to reservoir heterogeneity during the water injection development in tight oil reservoirs. However, current well test models cannot explain the inter-well interference data under the condition of water-flooding induced fractures. In this study, a numerical well test model for water-injection induced fractures is established considering the propagation of water-flooding induced fractures. This model is coupled with the stress field model at the fracture tip and accounts for interference from adjacent wells. An unstructured grid and the Discrete Fracture Model (DFM) are employed to characterize dynamic fractures, and the well test type curve analysis chart is plotted, followed by the sensitivity analysis. Results indicate that the higher injection rate makes it easier for induced fractures to initiate and propagate. When induced fractures activate natural fractures multiple times, the pressure derivative curve exhibits a multi-segment linear ascending pattern during the linear flow stage. In the presence of adjacent well interference, a smaller distance between adjacent wells and a larger injection rate result in an earlier decline of the pressure derivative curve. Finally, the applicability and reliability of the proposed method are verified through field cases.
