SYSTEMS, METHODS, AND COMPUTER-READABLE MEDIA FOR MAPPING NATURAL FRACTURE NETWORK IN SHALE

摘要

Generating a map of a Natural Fracture Network (“NFN”) of a shale reservoir is provided. A set of rules are defined to output an NFN density value, the rules being based on parameters including a well volume/completion parameter, a well stimulation parameter, and a well production parameter, each parameter divided into at least two fuzzy (or hard) clusters. The rules include combinations made up of the plurality of parameters and the fuzzy (or hard) cluster of each parameter, each combination being assigned an NFN density value. Historical data related to a plurality of wells drilled in the shale reservoir is analyzed, where the data includes volume/completion data, stimulation data, and production data. Corresponding values are assigned to the historical data based on the set of rules to determine the NFN density value. The NFN density values are mapped on a graph to identify the NFN of the shale reservoir.
