Research on Multi-Field Coupling Evolution Characteristics in Mature Thin Oil Fields During Energy-Storage Fracturing

Le résumé fourni par la source

Mature thin oil reservoirs remain pivotal to maintaining reserves, sustaining production, and enhancing profitability due to their substantial annual output and untapped recovery potential. However, prolonged development leads to compromised fracturing efficacy, manifesting as severe formation-energy depletion, rapid production decline, and short effective periods of stimulation measures. Energy-storage fracturing technology addresses these challenges through fluid-injection energization and imbibition displacement, thereby replenishing formation energy and mobilizing residual oil. Leveraging a geo-engineering integrated platform, this study establishes an inverted seven-spot well-pattern energization model to systematically investigate pore pressure–stress field evolution and dynamic responses under varying energization parameters, including energy-storage injection rate, energy-storage volume, and energy-storage sequence. Key findings include: (1) increasing the energy-storage injection rate from 1.5 m3/min to 3.5 m3/min elevates average pore pressure by 7.8 MPa, with minimum and maximum horizontal principal stresses increasing by 1.4 MPa and 1.7 MPa, respectively; (2) raising the energy-storage volume from 2800 m3 to 4200 m3 enhances pore pressure by 5.5 MPa, accompanied by 2.5 MPa and 2.6 MPa increments in minimum and maximum horizontal principal stresses; (3) simultaneous energizing of all injection wells (1–6) is identified as the optimal injection sequence, yielding the highest average pore pressure of 40.3 MPa at equivalent monitoring positions within the well group, with corresponding average minimum and maximum horizontal principal stresses of 55.3 MPa and 60.3 MPa, respectively. The results provide theoretical and technical support for optimizing energy-storage fracturing strategies in mature thin oil reservoirs.
