Inquiry into evaluation methods and its application for reserves of carbonate fractured-vuggy reservoirs under SEC rules
Carbonate fractured-vuggy reservoir is the most complex reservoir type in the world because of its complex controlled factors
strong heterogeneity and diverse reservoir rock types. There are many reservoir types such as caves
holes and fractures in the whole reservoir unit. The traditional description of single parameter system restricts the detailed description of underground geological bodies. According to the standards of SEC proved reserves
how to establish a scientific geological model
determine the parameters such as proved area
proved effective thickness and recovery rate
estimate various levels of geological reserves and technical recoverable reserves
confirm the number of undeveloped wells
and predict the reasonable proved reserves in the future is facing a great challenge. Therefore
the SEC reserve evaluation of a typical fault zone in Shunbei Oilfield is taken as an example
and the Ordovician reservoir in this well area is subdivided into three types
namely cavern reservoir
hole reservoir and fracture reservoir
to calculate the geological reserves respectively by using the mature reservoir prediction technology in this area. When confirming reserve evaluation
by combining a variety of the evaluation methods
such as static proved reserves evaluation method
analogy method and dynamic method
on the one hand
evaluating the dynamic rules of the developed wells to contrast its actual diminishing and forecast for verifying its rationality; on the other hand
confirming the reliability of the position of undeveloped wells by the judgment of distribution rule of fault-karst reservoir
and verifying the reliability of the forecast by the actual production changes after putting on production. Finally
a set of techniques and methods for SEC reserve evaluation of such reservoirs is formed
which has guiding and reference significance for ensuring the rationality of evaluation.
