The embodiment of the invention avoids the limitation of the availability condition of the monitored well by arranging the monitoring device outside the horizontal well, adopts the horizontal long wire excitation source arranged on the ground above the tail end of the horizontal well or on the ground far away from the tail end of the horizontal well, so that the excitation source is far away from the horizontal well mouth, avoids electromagnetic interference caused by a fracturing site, not only increases the signal strength, but also improves the quality of received signals, and improves the imaging precision, thereby effectively obtaining the size and the geometric form of a crack formed underground after the hydraulic fracturing of the horizontal well, and further providing effective reference information for evaluating the transformation effect of the hydraulic fracturing reservoir of the horizontal well.
In the implementation, first, a horizontal long wire excitation source is arranged on the ground above the tail end of the horizontal well or on the ground far away from the tail end of the horizontal well. For example, to achieve the most effective excitation of the low resistance fracture, in the embodiment of the present invention, the horizontal long-wire excitation source arrangement direction may be perpendicular to the projection track of the horizontal well on the ground. The length of the emission source is a preset range, for example, 2000-6000 m, as shown in fig. 2, a horizontal long-wire source excitation source A1B1 is arranged on the ground above the tail end of the horizontal well and is far away from the wellhead, the direction of the excitation source A1B1 is perpendicular to the projection track of the horizontal well on the ground, the projection track of the horizontal well on the ground passes through the midpoint of the emission source, and the length of the emission source A1B1 is 3000m. The ground contacts A1 and B1 of the excitation source A1B1 may be made of a thin aluminum plate, and those skilled in the art will understand that the length of the excitation source and the ground contact material are only examples, and are not described herein again.
Secondly, a plurality of measuring lines parallel to the excitation source A1B1 are distributed on the ground corresponding to the upper part of each perforation position of the horizontal well, and each measuring point position of each measuring line is provided with a 2-component electromagnetic field acquisition station. The electrode distribution mode of the measuring line comprises fixed point distances and variable point distances, the fixed point distances are determined according to the number of the input collecting stations in the implementation process, the number of the collecting stations is small, for example, less than 200, the variable point distances are selected, and the number of the collecting stations is large, for example, more than 200, and the fixed point distances are selected.
The fixed point distance in the embodiment of the invention is a constant value of the measuring line distance, such as a certain constant value in 20-50 m. The variable point distance is that the measuring point distance is a non-constant value, the point distance right above the horizontal well is dense, the number of measuring points right above the horizontal well cannot be less than 7, the point distance is thin in the direction away from the horizontal well, and the point distance takes a value in a set range, for example, 50-100 m.
For example, in the embodiment shown in fig. 2, the length of the measuring lines is 2000m, each measuring line is 100m apart, the minimum distance between the measuring lines and the emitting source A1B1 is 2000m, and the measuring lines are distributed in a fixed point distance mode with a point distance of 50 m.
The electromagnetic signals synchronously collected by the 2-component electromagnetic field collecting station in the embodiment of the invention comprise an electric field intensity component E X in the X direction of an electric field and an electric field intensity component E Y in the Y direction of the electric field, wherein the X direction of the electric field is a direction parallel to a measuring line, and the Y direction of the electric field is a direction perpendicular to the measuring line.
After the horizontal long lead excitation source and the 2-component electromagnetic field acquisition station are arranged, the time domain signal and the frequency domain signal are determined, and the specific steps include selecting a time domain emission waveform and period and selecting a frequency domain emission waveform and frequency range according to the depth of a horizontal well. The specific selection basis is that the time domain emission waveform is a square wave with zero crossing, the period range is 10 s-40 s, for example, the depth of a horizontal well is smaller than 2000m, the period of an emission signal is 20s, the depth of the horizontal well is larger than 2000m, and the period of the emission signal is 40s. The frequency domain emission waveform is a square wave which is not zero crossing, the frequency range is 2 -8~2+8 Hz, and the minimum frequency of the emission signal is calculated according to a skin depth formula by using the depth of the horizontal well and the stratum resistivity of the depth of the horizontal well. For example, in the specific embodiment shown in fig. 2, the depth of the horizontal well is 3000m, the time domain emission waveform is shown in fig. 3, the period is 40s, the frequency domain emission waveform is shown in fig. 4, the period is a Ts square wave signal, the period is not zero crossing, the period T is changed according to the frequency, the range of the emission frequency is 2 -6~2+6 Hz, the number of the selected frequencies is 41, and the selection of the emission frequency values is distributed at equal intervals in logarithmic space.
After the time domain signal and the frequency domain signal are transmitted, the horizontal long wire excitation source is excited once before hydraulic fracturing and after each stage of fracturing, the horizontal long wire excitation source is excited to repeatedly transmit the time domain signal according to the waveform and the period of the selected time domain signal, and the horizontal long wire excitation source is excited to repeatedly transmit the frequency domain signal according to the waveform and the frequency of the selected frequency domain signal. If the frequency of the frequency domain signal is greater than 1Hz, the repeated transmission times are greater than 64 times, and if the frequency is less than 1Hz, the repeated transmission times are greater than 32 times, and the repeated transmission times of the time domain signal are greater than 32 times. For example, in the specific embodiment shown in fig. 2, when the horizontal long wire excitation source A1B1 is excited, the selected time domain transmitting signal is repeatedly transmitted 64 times, when the frequency domain transmitting signal is transmitted, the number of repeated transmitting times is adjusted according to different signal frequencies, the number of repeated transmitting times of the high-frequency square wave is more, and the number of repeated transmitting times of the low-frequency square wave is less.
After the excitation source of the horizontal long lead is excited, the electromagnetic signals are synchronously collected by the 2-component electromagnetic field collecting station, and in the embodiment of the invention, the collecting station and the excitation source A1B1 synchronously realize the synchronous start of emission and collection through GPS. In the embodiment of the present invention, the sensor connected to the 2-component electromagnetic acquisition station may be a non-polarized electrode, and those skilled in the art can understand that signals may also be acquired by other sensors, which is only an example and will not be described herein.
