页岩油储层孔隙度测试方法优化及在四川盆地侏罗系中的应用

Optimization of Porosity Testing Methods for Shale Oil Reservoirs and Application in the Jurassic System of the Sichuan Basin

  • 摘要: 孔隙度是页岩油储层评价的核心参数。其测试精度受限于两方面问题:预处理流程(洗油、烘干)缺乏统一规范,以及不同体积参数(总体积Vb、颗粒体积Vg、孔隙体积Vp)测量选择引发的误差传递机制不明。为系统解析孔隙度测试结果的影响因素并建立高精度测试方法,本研究选取四川盆地侏罗系页岩油储层8组16块岩心,通过差异化预处理流程(洗油/未洗油、梯度温度/时间烘干)和不同体积参数(总体积Vb、颗粒体积Vg、孔隙体积Vp)测量开展孔隙度对比实验,并引入标准物质优化测量方法。结果表明:①洗油显著释放孔隙空间,孔隙度平均绝对增幅0.32%,其中低成熟度样品(Ro<1.2%)增幅更显著(最高达0.56%);②烘干温度>105℃将导致黏土矿物层间水脱除及孔隙体积系统性衰减(平均降幅4.2%),90~105℃烘干24~36h为兼顾高效脱水与结构保护的最优参数;③体积参数测量中,Vb测量误差是孔隙度数据离散的主要来源(Vb误差平均为Vp误差的3.8倍);④优化后的直接测量法(测量参数VpVg)显著提升了孔隙度结果的重复性与准确性(重复性误差降低76.8%)。研究认为:页岩油储层孔隙度测试前,尤其对低成熟度样品进行洗油预处理十分必要;严格控制烘干温度(≤105℃)是获取准确孔隙体积的关键。该优化方法(直接测量参数VpVg)能有效解决体积测量误差传递问题,实现孔隙度高精度测试。

     

    Abstract: Porosity is a core parameter in the evaluation of shale oil reservoirs. The accuracy of its measurement is constrained by two main issues: the lack of standardized pretreatment procedures (solvent extraction and drying) and an unclear error propagation mechanism resulting from the selection of different volume parameters (bulk volume Vb, grain volume Vg, and pore volume Vp). To systematically analyze the influencing factors on porosity test results and establish a high-precision testing method, this study selected 8 sets of 16 core samples from Jurassic shale oil reservoirs in the Sichuan Basin. Comparative porosity experiments were conducted using differentiated pretreatment workflows (with/without solvent extraction, gradient temperature/duration drying) and measurements of different volume parameters (Vb, Vg, Vp), with reference materials introduced to optimize the measurement method. The results show that: (1) Solvent extraction significantly releases pore space, with an average absolute increase in porosity of 0.32%, particularly more pronounced in low-maturity samples (Ro<1.2%), where the increase reached up to 0.56%; (2) Drying temperatures exceeding 105℃ lead to the removal of interlayer water in clay minerals and a systematic reduction in pore volume (average decrease of 4.2%), while drying at 90-105℃ for 24-36 hours is identified as the optimal parameter balancing efficient dehydration and structural preservation; (3) Among volume parameter measurements, the error in Vb measurement is the primary source of porosity data dispersion (its error is on average 3.8 times that of Vp error); (4) The optimized direct measurement method (measuring Vp and Vg) significantly enhances the repeatability and accuracy of porosity results (with a 76.8% reduction in repeatability error). The study concludes that solvent extraction pretreatment is essential prior to porosity testing in shale oil reservoirs (especially for low-maturity samples); strict control of drying temperature (≤105℃) is critical for obtaining accurate pore volume; and the optimized method (direct measurement of Vp and Vg) effectively addresses error propagation in volume measurement, enabling high-precision porosity testing.
