Abstract
Predicted reservoir results from conventional methods didn’t match the production performance in GS B well block in the Lower Sinian Dengying dolomite formation. The predicted gas production of vertical well is around 500k m3/day, but the real gas production is below 100k m3/day. In GS A well block, the predicted gas production of vertical well is consistent with the real gas production around 500k m3/day, and when meter cavie develops, test gas production can reach 1000k m3/day. It suggests the biggest challenge is to clarify reservoir characterization in GS B well block.
However, due to the limited resolution of conventional logs and strong heterogeneity of carbonate reservoir, conventional open hole logs and seismic data has limitation to provide the details of secondary pore and fractures to clarify reservoir characterization. The electrical image logs provide high resolution images with high borehole coverage. It can provide abundant information about secondary pore and fracture to identify dominant dissolution facies window.
Through electrical image logs, secondary pore and fracture classification in 50 vertical wells were performed in the Lower Sinian Dengying dolomite formation. Five facies were detected based on electrical image logs, including vug facies (honeycomb vug facies, algal stromatolite vug facies and bedding vug facies), cave facies, fracture-vug facies, massive dense facies and dark thin layer dense facies. With the five facies and top interface constraints from seismic data, 3D dissolution facies model was created, which can show different dissolution facies window of GS A and GS B well block. The method in this paper reveals the reason of confliction and agree test gas production.
The case study presents how to identify five dissolution facies based on high-resolution electrical image logs with core data calibration. Besides, 3D dissolution facies model is created to show dissolution facies window of GS B well block to optimize well trajectory deployment during the development stage. Better understanding of reservoir characterization was instructive for acid fracturing design of Dengying dolomite gas reservoir as well.
