A comparative study on production mechanism & dynamics simulation of tight sandstone and shale gas well

In order to reveal the reasons for the differences between the shale and tight sandstone gas development methods,the full-diameter cores of the shale and tight sandstone are used to simulate the whole life-cycle development dynamics of gas wells and study the gas production mechanism of the two kinds of gas reservoirs.The experimental results show that the shale gas production process includes three stages:high-speed,mediumspeed and low-speed development stage,and only in the medium-speed development stage the stratigraphic apparent pressure has a linear relationship with the cumulative gas production,which deviates from the original linear relationship when the pressure drops to 12 MPa. The tight sandstone formations,on the other hand,have an essentially linear relationship between apparent pressure and cumulative gas production,deviating from the original linear relationship only when the pressure approaches 0.1 MPa. The recovery percent of tight sandstone is 90% in the high-speed stage,and that in low-speed stage is low. While the recovery percent of shale is only17% in the high-speed stage and can reach 50% in the medium-speed and low-speed stage. In the low-speed stage,the gas production per unit pressure drop increases greatly,which proves that both of shale and tight sandstone contain a certain amount of adsorbed gas,and the difference lies in the relatively high proportion of desorption pressure and adsorbed gas in the total gas volume of shale. Finally,this paper builds a relatively simple whole life-cycle percolation model for shale that considers the slippage effect and Langmiur adsorption effect based on the knowledge of shale permeability and adsorbed gas. Numerical simulation of the whole life-cycle production dynamics of the full-diameter shale core,the apparent pressure curve,daily gas production decreasing curve are in good agreement with the experimental results,and the relative error of the fitted free gas volume and adsorbed gas volume is less than 5%,which proves the feasibility of the model in predicting the production capacity of shale gas wells.
