Petrophysical properties identification and estimation of the Wufeng-Longmaxi shale gas reservoirs: A case study from South-West China
Abstract Petrophysical properties are critical for shale gas reservoir characterization and simulation. The Wufeng-Longmaxi shale, in the southeastern margin of the Sichuan Basin, is identified as a complex reservoir due to its variability in lithification and geological mechanisms. Thus, determining its characteristics is challenging. Based on wireline logs and pressure data analysis, a shale reservoir was identified, and petrophysical properties were described to obtain parameters to build a reservoir simulation model. The properties include shale volume, sand porosity, net reservoir thickness, total and effective porosities, and water saturation. Total and effective porosities were calculated using density method. Shale volume was estimated by applying Clavier equation to gamma-ray responses. Sand porosity and net reservoir thickness were evaluated using Thomas–Stieber model, and Simandoux equation was used to compute water saturation. The results indicate that the reservoir is characterized by a relatively low porosity and high shale content, with shale unequally distributed in its laminated form (approximately 75%), dispersed (about 20%), and structural form (5%). This research workflow can efficiently evaluate shale reservoir parameters and provide a reliable approach for future reservoir development and fracture identification.
期刊介绍:
Journal of Geophysics and Engineering aims to promote research and developments in geophysics and related areas of engineering. It has a predominantly applied science and engineering focus, but solicits and accepts high-quality contributions in all earth-physics disciplines, including geodynamics, natural and controlled-source seismology, oil, gas and mineral exploration, petrophysics and reservoir geophysics. The journal covers those aspects of engineering that are closely related to geophysics, or on the targets and problems that geophysics addresses. Typically, this is engineering focused on the subsurface, particularly petroleum engineering, rock mechanics, geophysical software engineering, drilling technology, remote sensing, instrumentation and sensor design.
