Description
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of hydraulic fracturing of reservoirs, and relates to a hydraulic fracture propagation azimuth control method based on a liquid nitrogen cooling reservoir.
Background
The hydraulic fracturing technology is widely applied to underground coal mine gas extraction, unconventional tight reservoir reconstruction and geothermal exploitation, and good effects are achieved. However, hydraulic fracture propagation is affected by ground stress, formation structure, etc., and is prone to propagation to non-predetermined locations such as roof and floor formations, etc., the hydraulic fracture propagation zone is limited, and the fracturing effect is not ideal. In addition, as the length of the hydraulic fracture increases, the fluid loss of the fracture wall surface increases, resulting in the hydraulic fracture stopping to expand or being easy to expand along the weak structural surface, and the possibility that the hydraulic fractures of the two wells at a long distance are directly communicated is reduced. Therefore, the method for searching the hydraulic fracture directional expansion and effectively communicating the remote well has great application value. Meanwhile, ultralow temperature liquid nitrogen (boiling point-196 ℃ under normal pressure) is also applied to reservoir fracturing, a crack network is formed by utilizing the ultralow temperature cold impact rock characteristic of the ultralow temperature liquid nitrogen, the construction pressure is effectively reduced, and the characteristic of inducing hydraulic crack directional expansion is not researched.
Patent CN 105239984B proposes a method for guiding the propagation of hydraulic fracture to the high pore pressure zone by using the high pore pressure zone generated by pressure maintaining water injection, and does not involve the way of using ultra-low temperature to cool the reservoir and changing the ground stress to induce the directional propagation of hydraulic fracture. Patent CN 104763426B proposes a method for presplitting a thick hard roof of a coal mine by using liquid nitrogen under the coal mine, and inducing rock microcrack/pore expansion by using ultralow temperature liquid nitrogen. Patent CN 107476807A proposes a method of pulsed liquid nitrogen injection and fracture weakening of a hard top plate. Patent CN 111271036B proposes a process method for fracturing a reservoir layer by liquid nitrogen in ground drilling, and adopts a method for pre-cooling a fracturing string in advance to improve the liquid nitrogen conveying efficiency. The liquid nitrogen fracturing patents mainly utilize cold impact to realize complex fracture network, but all the liquid nitrogen fracturing patents do not relate to the content of the ultralow temperature liquid nitrogen cooling reservoir to change the local ground stress field. In addition, water/oil in high water and oil reservoirs will solidify and swell when exposed to liquid nitrogen, and are therefore unsuitable for use with the above-described techniques.

。
preferably, the fracture trend can be influenced by assuming that the temperature disturbance of the liquid nitrogen cooling area propagates to the fracturing drilling hole, and the pressure maintaining critical time of the liquid nitrogen injection hole is calculated according to the heat conduction/convection efficiency of the reservoir:
when reservoir permeability is below 0.001mD,；
when reservoir permeability is above 0.001mD,；
wherein,respectively the radius of the liquid nitrogen injection hole and the ∈10->= 3.1415 is the circumference ratio, +.>For the thermal conductivity of the reservoir->For reservoir permeability, +.>Is viscosity of liquid nitrogen>Is the distance between the fluid-injected borehole and the fracturing borehole.

Aiming at a hypotonic compact reservoir, the hydraulic conduction rate is lower than the heat conduction rate, and the water injection permeation efficiency is lower than the liquid nitrogen heat transfer efficiency; for a hypertonic reservoir, low-temperature liquid nitrogen can quickly form temperature disturbance through thermal convection and liquid nitrogen seepage. Therefore, compared with water injection seepage control crack extension, the ultra-low temperature liquid nitrogen can quickly change a temperature field and a local stress field, and further efficiently induce the directional extension of the hydraulic crack. According to the invention, the fracturing drilling holes are reasonably arranged at the two sides of the liquid injection drilling hole, the liquid injection is utilized to form a temperature low-temperature region in the reservoir, the ground stress of the temperature disturbance region is reduced, the directional expansion of the hydraulic fracture is realized, and the hydraulic fracture communication efficiency of the two long-distance wells is improved. The method is different from the conventional water injection seepage, and the injected liquid nitrogen forms a low-temperature area in the reservoir and changes a ground stress field so as to influence the hydraulic fracture expansion direction of the fracturing hole.
