Abstract:

In order to determine reservoir sensitivity of the shale in the first member of the Lucaogou formation (Lu 1 member for short) in Jimsar sag, we analyzed the pore structure and carried out physical simulation experiments on the reservoir sensitivity after understanding the reservoir mineral composition. The Lu 1 member reservoir belongs to terrigenous clastic deposits with complex mineral composition and rich clay minerals, most of which are swellable. The high content of brittle minerals and complex pore structures in the reservoir aggravated stress sensitive damage; the high content of swellable clay minerals increased water sensitive damage; the high contents of (iron) dolomite and clay minerals induced acid and alkali sensitive damage, but the high content of calcite slightly reduced acid sensitive damage. In conclusion, the Lu 1 member shale reservoir in the study area is moderately-strongly sensitive to stress and water, weakly-strongly sensitive to acid and weakly-approximately moderately sensitive to alkali. Reservoir sensitivity damages from acid, water and stress should be prevented in oilfield development.
