Evaluation Method of the Vertical Well Hydraulic Fracturing Effect Based on Production Data
Hydraulic fracturing technology has become a key technology for the development of low-permeability/tight oil and gas reservoirs. The evaluation on the postfracturing effect is imperative to the formulation and implementation of the fracturing and development plan. Based on the characteristics of th...

Hydraulic fracturing technology has become a key technology for the development of low-permeability/tight oil and gas reservoirs. The evaluation on the postfracturing effect is imperative to the formulation and implementation of the fracturing and development plan. Based on the characteristics of the flow in fracture network after a large-scale hydraulic fracturing, a numerical method for evaluating the effect of fracturing in vertical well was established. This study conducts postfracturing effect evaluations to block C Oilfield’s wells that underwent conventional fracturing and volumetric fracturing, respectively, proposes the definition of fracture network conductivity and its relationship with cumulative production, and analyzes the fracturing construction parameters. The results suggest that the conventional fracturing can only form a single fracture instead of a stimulated reservoir volume (SRV) region. However, the volumetric fracturing transformation can form a complex fracture network system and SRV region and meanwhile bring obvious increase in the production. The effective time lasts for a longer period, and the increase of average daily oil is 2.2 times more than that of conventional fracturing. Additionally, with the progress of the production, the SRV area within the core region of the volume transformation gradually decreased from 6664.84 m2 to 4414.45 m2; the SRV area of the outer region decreased from 7913.5 m2 to 5391.3 m2. As the progress develops, the equivalent permeability and the area of the fracture gradually decrease as the fracturing effect gradually weakens, and so does the conductivity of the network decreasing exponentially; a good correlation is observed between the conductivity of the fracture network, the cumulative production, and fracturing construction parameters, which can serve as the evaluation parameters for the fracturing effects and the basis for fracturing productivity prediction and provide a guidance for fracturing optimization design. |
