Abstract:

With the continuous and further development in Sinopec shale oil exploitation, a series of characteristic technologies such as drilling, logging cementing and fracturing have been preliminarily formed. By the summary and analysis of the progress and achievements made by Sinopec in shale oil engineering technology during the "14th Five-Year Plan" period, the problems and challenges currently existing in shale oil development engineering technology are reviewed, and the technical countermeasures and development suggestions in the aspects of geological and drilling engineering integration, speed-up of drilling and completion, three-dimensional well development, and ultra-long horizontal wells are pointed out. Therefore, it promotes the development of shale oil engineering technology in China, realizes the low-cost, large-scale and cost-effective development of shale oil resources, and provides useful reference.

Key words: shale oil, geology-engineering integration, three-dimensional well pattern fracturing, ultra-long horizontal well, new progress
