4 Pressure Transient Analysis
термины по теме: см. early time region, middle time region, late time region, wellbore storage, skin factor, pressure wave, reservoir boundary, type curveМетод анализа кривых испытаний с переменным давлением состоит в сопоставлении кривых изменения давления, полученных при испытании скважины (см. Well Testing), и базовых, или типовых, кривых (type curve). Кривые делятся на три участка. На первом участке, который называется ранний временной период (early time region), кривые сперва возрастают (это связано с так называемым эффектом ствола, или эффектом объема жидкости в стволе скважины - wellbore storage. Эффект состоит в том, что при открытии скважины добыча идет сначала не из пласта, а из ствола скважины, за счет расширения флюидов в стволе, и наоборот, при закрытии скважины, флюиды некоторое время еще поступают из пласта в ствол), затем терпят изгиб (по величине этого изгиба можно оценить скин-фактор - skin factor, то есть степень повреждения призабойной зоны). После этого наступает средний временной период (middle time region), в течение которого обычно имеет место радиальный приток в скважину (radial flow). Производная давления становится плоской. По поведению графика на этом этапе можно оценить проницаемость самого пласта. Наконец, кривые начинают резко подниматься вверх, что свидетельствует о наступлении позднего временного периода (late time region). Он наступает, когда волна давления достигает хотя бы одной из границ зоны дренирования, например, непроводящего сброса или границы пласта. Зная момент наступления позднего временного периода, можно оценить расстояние до границ пласта. Метод анализа состоит в том, что график с данными испытания накладывается на график, построенный на безразмерной шкале, на котором изображены типовые кривые. График с данными совпадает с одной из типовых кривых, и на основе того, с какой из кривых произошло совпадение, определяется, каковы скин-фактор, проницаемость и другие параметры скважины, подвергнутой испытанию.English-Russian oil and gas dictionary with explanation > Pressure Transient Analysis
