Abstract:

The logging response characteristics of different productivity shale gas wells are obviously different. By comparing and analyzing the logging response characteristics of shale gas well with different productivity, the logging response characteristics of high production shale gas reservoir are summarized. Then, by the analyses of the differences of lithology, electrical properties, physical properties, in-situ stress and pore pressure in shale gas wells with different productivity, and the geophysics logging information such as resistivity logging, radioactive logging and acoustic scanning, etc., a set of high-quality and high-yield shale reservoir identification methods based on integrated logging response characteristics is developed by considering the key parameters of organic quality and formation pressure to reflect shale gas productivity. The results show that the electrical characteristics of high-quality and high-yield shale reservoirs are high gamma-ray, low density, low neutron, high acoustic time difference and medium-high resistivity. This set of analysis method can accurately identify the exploration and development potential of shale reservoirs. The comparison between the field gas test results of different types of shale gas reservoirs in different shale gas blocks in southeastern Sichuan and the results of comprehensive well logging analysis shows that the method has a high coincidence rate. It can provide scientific basis for later completion plan decision of shale gas well.
