Abstract:

Ultra-deep fault-controlled fractured-vuggy reservoirs are typically characterized by deep and large fault-controlled hydrocarbon accumulation and preservation. Under the influence of multi-stage tectonism and paleokarstification, the reservoirs have strong heterogeneity and stress sensitivity, leading to unclear inter-well connectivity during the oilfield development process and complex inter-well connection modes, which greatly affect the performance of water/gas injection in production wells. As a fundamental task guiding the waterflooding development of fault-controlled fractured-vuggy carbonate reservoirs, the judgment of the inter-well connectivity is of vital significance. This paper proposes a dynamic-static collaborative analysis method by multi-source data fusion. Based on the division results of statically connected units, using the production performance data and pressure data, several methods such as static pressure analysis, quasi-interference analysis, and production feature similarity, are combined with the well test responses to judge the dynamic connectivity of the statically connected units in the study area. Meanwhile, the changes in the connectivity are analyzed. The proposed method gets ride of the problems of insufficient multi-source data fusion and low efficiency of development data existing in conventional inter-well connectivity analysis.
