Based on the field outcrop and core logging data, the production data from drilled shale gas wells and previous research results combined with the determination of organic matter content, laser Raman spectroscopy of organic matter, X-ray diffraction experiments, and field emission scanning electron microscopy observations. This study compares the geological conditions and control factors of shale gas enrichment and high yield in the Wufeng–Longmaxi Formation and Qiongzhusi Formation and clarifies the enrichment mode of two sets of shale gas reservoirs. The results show that the organic geochemical conditions of two sets of shale reservoirs are similar, about 0.5%~4.5%. The quartz content of Wufeng–Longmaxi Formation shale (42.5%) is more than that of Qiongzhusi Formation (34.1%~40.2%), and the feldspar content (6.4%) is less than that of Qiongzhusi Formation (20.5~27.3%). The inorganic pores of the Qiongzhusi Formation are more developed than those of the Wufeng–Longmaxi Formation, and the pore size of inorganic pores can reach 100 nm~1 <i>μ</i>m. Both of them have good preservation conditions. The enrichment of shale gas in the Wufeng–Longmaxi Formation is controlled by hydrocarbon generation reservoir-preservation conditions, and the enrichment of shale gas in the Qiongzhusi Formation is mainly controlled by geological structure. It is of great significance to clarify the enrichment control factors of the Qiongzhusi Formation for effectively guiding the continuous exploration and development of the Qiongzhusi Formation.

This method consists of eight steps, ranked according to impact weight, each of which is independent but intrinsically linked. When there is a conflict between studies in different steps, the results of the previous step take precedence. (1) Pressure is the most important and reliable data. When the wells with an abnormal pressure gradient in the same interval account for more than 60%, further division of the reservoir is appropriate. (2) Baffles are the second most important and reliable basis. When there are continuous baffles or poor reservoirs that encounter more than 80% wells, it is appropriate to further divide reservoirs. (3) Without the two mentioned above, but with an unconformity surface or discontinuity surface between two sequences, it is appropriate to treat these two sequences as two development units. (4) Without the three mentioned above, if the permeability above and below the sequence boundary differs by 10 or more times, reservoirs above and below the sequence boundary are appropriate as distinct development units. (5) When the thickness, continuity, distribution pattern, and microstructure of two adjacent sequences are significantly different, it is appropriate to treat these two sequences as two development units. (6) If the development units are based on sequences, check for homogeneity within the stratigraphy. If depositional facies or physical property discontinuities are present, the sequence would be reconsidered for subdivision. (7) The reserves in each development unit should account for more than 20% of that of the whole reservoir. (8) When the division of the development units is complete, it needs to be examined to ensure that there is a consistent structure, fluid property, and free water level. If inconsistencies exist, then subdivision is considered. The method was successfully applied to A oilfield, Central Arabian Basin, in combination with the cores, cast thin sections, regular or special core analysis, wireline logging data from 450 wells, formation pressure from 63 wells, and more than 100 wells with a production logging test.

The damaged contour line of the support stress and lateral support stress on the bottom plate through the advancing direction of the working face is the intersection line of a straight line and an arc line. The failure of the floor caused by lateral supporting stress is the failure of the floor again on the basis of the failure of the floor in the advancing direction of the working face, and there is a superimposed failure area. The analysis of the failure form of the stope floor by this mechanical model is closer to the engineering practice. By using “ultrasonic detection method + stress monitoring inverse analysis method,” the measured data such as disturbance failure depth and distribution law of large mining width working face were obtained. The test method used in this paper is relatively rare in the monitoring of the depth of floor disturbance failure at home and abroad. Considering that the traditional pressure water test method has disadvantages such as easy collapse hole, long period, and large error in monitoring the failure rule of deep floor rock mass, the embedded stress monitoring and reverse analysis method and ultrasonic detection method are used to successfully collect and real-time monitor the data of rock floor before, during and after mining in the lower part of wide mining face of Xizhuo Coal Mine for the first time, and several effective data are obtained, which solves the three-part “spatial-time” all-round floor disturbance and failure law field measurement which cannot be realized by traditional testing technology. By comparing the results of theoretical analysis, field measurement, and numerical simulation, the law and depth of floor disturbance failure of a 240-m wide mining face in the Chenghe mining area are obtained for the first time, which provides scientific guidance for floor water disaster induced by coal seam mining under similar conditions in the future and has an important reference role for the prevention and control of Ordovician ash water disaster in coal mining.

This paper proposes a self-flow model for horizontal shale wells that describes multiscale fractures and production controlled by the nozzle. The model integrates the embedded discrete fracture model (EDFM), pipe flow model, and nozzle flow model. The accuracy of the model has been validated through comparisons with other reference models and field data. Then, this study analyzes the effects of different natural fracture densities, horizontal section lengths, number of fracturing stages, and nozzle diameters on the production capacity during the self-flow period. The results indicate that reservoirs with developed natural fractures can enhance the development efficiency during the self-flow period, and appropriate horizontal section lengths and fracturing stages contribute to achieving maximum economic benefits in development.

Buildings constructed from historical rammed earth sites frequently encounter the issue of rainwater erosion. Microbially induced calcium carbonate precipitation (MICP) is commonly applied to sand soil treatment, yet reports on its use for stabilizing rammed earth are scarce. This study focused on the rammed earth of the Shanhaiguan Great Wall and explored the efficacy of MICP in mitigating rain erosion through permeation tests, splash experiments, and scouring trials. The findings indicate that the forms of rain erosion damage under MICP treatment vary across different operational conditions. In laboratory experiments, as the concentration of the cementation solution increases, the amount of calcium carbonate crystals also increases. However, the permeability, splash resistance, and rain erosion resistance initially increase and then decrease. When the cementation solution concentration is 1.0 mol/L, the penetration rate is the highest, lasting 712.55 s. The splash pit rate is the lowest, at only 1.2 mm, and the soil erosion rate is the lowest, at only 4.13%. The rain erosion resistance in the field test exhibit the same trend, and the optimal concentration is 1.2 mol/L. The optimal concentration mechanism involves the aggregation of calcium carbonate crystals at suitable cementation solution concentrations, which begin to fill the soil particle pores, effectively resisting rainwater erosion. At lower concentrations of the cementation solution, calcium carbonate crystals are merely adsorbed by soil particles without blocking the pores. Due to the high compressibility of rammed earth, which results in lower porosity, a higher concentration of the cementation solution leads to rapid pore clogging by excessive calcium carbonate crystals, which accumulate on the surface to form a white crust layer. The MICP technique can effectively alleviate rainwater erosion in rammed earth, and the optimal concentration needs to be tailored to the porosity of the rammed earth. This mechanism was also validated in field scouring experiments on the Shanhaiguan Great Wall’s rammed earth.</p>","PeriodicalId":12512,"journal":{"name":"Geofluids","volume":"2024 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.2,"publicationDate":"2024-10-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1155/2024/2083124","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142451734","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"地球科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Utilizing the laminar flow theory and an ideal pore structure, especially cylinder model, the function of the relative permeability of heavy oil–water with water saturation is derived by incorporating the principles of momentum conservation and the characteristics of Bingham fluids, which was modified by validated experiment. Two-phase relative permeability, considering heavy oil as non-Newtonian fluid, is the function of water saturation, pore size, oil–water viscosity ratio, and yield stress. The results of the validated experiment show that the theoretical values calculated employing the modified equation exhibit better agreement with the experimental values, particularly when the viscosities of two-phase fluid are great. The results of the modified two-phase relative permeability show a decrease in water saturation interval corresponding to the two-phase flow area and a smaller value of permeability at equal two-phase relative permeability. The oil–water viscosity ratio in the hydrophobic pores affects the water-phase relative permeability, although the magnitude of its influence diminishes as the viscosity ratio increases. The behavior of relative permeability in hydrophilic pores is the opposite of that in hydrophobic pores. This work can afford good application prospects for mobility control in multilayered reservoirs through the heterogeneous-phase-composite fluid. The saturations of the remaining oil and irreducible water also play a vital role in the prediction of permeability.

The fly ash slurry is a non-Newtonian Bingham fluid that moves in a turbulent state in a pipeline. When simulating the flow of fly ash slurry using Fluent software, the mesh type is a mixed mesh of hexahedron and wedge shapes, and the viscous model is selected as realizable k-<i>ε</i> Turbulence Model, with Enhanced-Wall Function (EWF) selected as the wall function, combined with a four-layer boundary layer mesh, which can more accurately capture the details of velocity changes at the wall, thereby improving the accuracy of the model. The inlet of the model is the velocity inlet, and the outlet is the pressure outlet. The coupled algorithm is chosen as the solution method. Under these conditions, the model converges quickly and the calculation accuracy is high. The results show that the resistance loss along the pipeline decreases as a power function with the increase of pipeline diameter, and there is a polynomial relationship between the pipeline flow and the resistance loss along the pipeline, while the mass concentration of fly ash slurry changes linearly with the resistance loss along the pipeline. In addition, three friction coefficient models, namely Blasius formula, Colebrook–White equation, and Wilson–Thomas model, were selected according to the flow characteristics of fly ash slurry. Based on the Blasius formula with the smallest relative calculation error, the Blasius formula was modified by multiple linear regression analysis to improve the accuracy of the frictional resistance coefficient model and to provide help for the design and use of separate layer grouting conveying system.</p>","PeriodicalId":12512,"journal":{"name":"Geofluids","volume":"2024 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.2,"publicationDate":"2024-10-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1155/2024/6434066","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142429916","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"地球科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
