Optimization of Well Spacing for Tight Sandstone Gas Reservoirs --Case study of Eastern Sulige Gas field

摘要

Influenced by special geologic condition and stimulation, the production performance of tight fractured gas well is obviously different from that of conventional gas well. During deliverability testing, the hydraulic fractured gas well can never reach steady state with limited test time. It is difficult to calculate reserve and drainage area accurately at early development stage. Take eastern Sulige gas field for example, by correctly recognizing the percolation characteristics and production performance of hydraulically-fractured tight gas wells, and combined with core analysis, 116 hydraulically fractured tight gas wells in eastern Sulige gas field have been analyzed. A prediction chart of recoverable reserve for estern Sulige gas field is established. With this chart, the ultimately recoverable reserves, drainage sizes, drainage lengths and drainage widths of 116 hydraulically-fractured tight gas wells in eastern Sulige gas field are predicted based on early stage of production data, and finally a reasonable well spacing for this field is suggested. Only utilizing routine production data without employing additional resources, this method is a good predictive guide to launch a development plan of tight gas field.
