Abstract

Abstract

Fracture is the main reservoir space and fluid seepage channel in oil and gas reservoirs, which affects hydrocarbon migration directly as an important indicator of oil and gas exploration and development. In this study, the Ren 10 well in Renqiu Oilfield of the Jizhong depression was taken as an example, the influence rule of fracture width and fracture surface roughness on rock seepage characteristics was studied in this work by numerical simulation. The results show as follows: 1) When fracture width is small, fluid pressure in pore distributes as a fan and only in a small range of the entrance; pressure distribution curve in fracture is tangent function type, and fluid and flow velocity are both relatively small in fracture and pore. With the increase of fracture width, fluid pressure in pore increases gradually; pressure distribution curve in fracture gradually changes to linear type. Moreover, the fluid and flow velocity decrease first and then tend to be stable at the entrance while increase first and then tend to be stable in fracture. 2) The influence of fracture surface roughness on rock seepage characteristics varies with fracture width. When fracture width gets bigger, the influence of fracture surface roughness gets greater on the distribution of fluid pressure. With the increase of fracture surface roughness, flow velocity in pore gradually increases while that in fracture decreases. 3) With the increase of fracture width, the main controlling factor affecting fluid flow in fracture changes from fracture width to fracture surface roughness.
