Technical field
The present invention relates to a kind of supercritical CO
2fracturing increases the experimental provision of shale gas reservoir permeability, and particularly one can be carried out differently supercritical CO under stress, different reservoir pressure and condition of different temperatures
2the experimental provision of the research of fracturing shale gas reservoir mechanism experiment and the research of fracturing process shale stress-strain-permeability variation rule.
Background technology
China's natural gas demand is growing, and inlet natural gas amount increases day by day, and externally interdependency is also increasing, serious threat Chinese energy safety.China's shale gas resource is very abundant, and Efficient Development shale gas is for alleviating China's energy supply and demand contradiction, readjusting the energy structure, ensure that energy security is significant.Due to shale gas reservoir low porosity and low permeability, exploitation shale gas must carry out reservoir fracturing and anatonosis.The U.S. that successfully exploits at present shale gas mainly adopts hydraulic fracturing technology, but a large amount of water resource of this Technology Need consumption and seriously polluted to underground water.
Research is found, is worked as CO
2temperature and pressure respectively in 31.1 DEG C and 7.38 MPa when above, CO
2to reach supercriticality and (be called for short SC-CO
2).Supercritical CO
2character between gas and liquid, the low viscosity of existing gas and easily diffusivity, also have high density and the good feature of dissolubility of liquid, have superpower flow, infiltration and transmit performance, can replace clear water as fracturing liquid.
Therefore, in conjunction with China's shale gas exploitation and national CO
2the great demand reducing discharging, applicant proposes to adopt supercritical CO
2the technical thought that replaces clear water to carry out the anatonosis of shale gas reservoir fracturing, this thinking, in increasing shale gas reservoir permeability, can also realize carbon dioxide and seal up for safekeeping for a long time in shale gas reservoir.Specific operation process is: make by changing pressure and temperature the CO trapping from industrial emission source
2in the supercriticality between gaseous state and liquid state, use it for a large amount of clear water required while replacing shale gas performance history hydrofracturing reservoir, carry out the pressure break of shale gas reservoir, improve reservoir permeability, strengthen CO
2can injection, expand CO
2in shale bed, involve scope, make CO
2fully contact with shale bed, utilize shale body to CO
2and CH
4the difference of adsorptive power is by CH
4cement out, sealing CO up for safekeeping
2time improve shale gas recovery ratio, realize CO
2seal for a long time the best combination with high-efficiency resource recycling up for safekeeping.
But at present for supercritical CO
2the research of the theory of fracturing shale and experiment aspect is all gone back seldom, particularly lacks corresponding experimental provision and simulates supercritical CO
2the Changing Pattern of fracturing process shale gas reservoir permeability, stress, strain.Existing experimental provision can only carry out the experimental study of hydrofracturing, for supercritical CO
2exist following not enough: (1) can not effectively control CO
2phase; (2) can not simulate supercritical CO under many (terrestrial stress, temperature, pressure) coupling conditions
