Distribution characteristics and sensitive factors of movable fluids in micro-nano porous media:a case study of tight sandstone reservoir in the Member 4 of Xujiahe Formation in Jianyang area of Sichuan Basin
The Member 4 of Xujiahe Formation in Jianyang area is a key target for increasing the reserves and production of continental tight gas in Sichuan Basin. However
the substantial heterogeneity in gas-bearing properties and the undefined dominant mechanisms governing fluid mobility severely restrict the efficient exploration and development of tight gas. Based on multi-scale characterization techniques combined with an integrated framework combining Pearson correlation analysis
grey correlation
and random forest algorithm
this study systematically investigates the distribution patterns of movable fluids in micro-nano pores and quantitatively identifies their sensitive factors. The results show as follows. (1) According to pore types and fractal characteristics
the pore system can be classified into micropores (pore size ranging from 0 to 0.01 μm)
small pores (pore size ranging from 0.01 to 0.10 μm)
mesopores (pore size ranging from 0.10 to 1.00 μm)
and macropores (pore size greater than 1.00 μm). Among them
small pores (with an average proportion of 37.12 %) and mesopores (with an average proportion of 25.82 %) constitute the main reservoir spaces in the tight sandstone
dominated by intercrystalline pores and intragranular dissolved pores in clay minerals. (2) Movable fluids are primarily hosted in small pores (with an average proportion of 19.12 %) and mesopores (with an average proportion of 18.13 %)
while bound fluids are predominantly distributed in small pores (with an average proportion of 18.00 %). (3) Pore structure parameters
including the proportion of small pores
median radius of saturated pores
and fractal dimension of mesopores
are the core sensitive factors controlling fluid mobility
significantly influencing its magnitude. Illite-smectite mixed layers and carbonate minerals indirectly affect fluid mobility by controlling and modifying pore structure in reservoirs. Pore structure dominates fluid mobility
while mineral components exert indirect influences. The research results are expected to provide a new theoretical paradigm for the evaluation of fluid mobility and the prediction of high-quality reservoirs in tight sandstone reservoirs.
